    Cooperative Dungeon IV: Update

    I just added door stats to mine (room 19). If anyone has other suggestions (or if I've missed a suggestion already posted), just let me know.

    Cooperative Dungeon IV: Update

    Room 19 - The Hall of Celebrants (Adrienne Traxler "Adrienne") Door: Echoing the style of the smaller portal across the hall, these double doors are made of copper and covered with ancient bas reliefs. The decorations show women and children strewing flowers over a path that leads to an empty...

    Cooperative Dungeon IV: Update

    I have an idea for room 19. I'll start writing it up, and post it if Jester47 doesn't come back, I guess?

    Cooperative Dungeon IV: Update

    I think it was in the Fiend Folio, and as I recall it was a nice CR for this dungeon, but it doesn't seem to be in the 3.5 SRD. (In fact, I just noticed that there are no "J" monsters in the SRD. Poor, under-represented letter.)

    Female DM's

    Aside from the rambling one-shot experiments my friends and I tried in high school, I ran an Amber DRPG game about three and a half years ago, followed by a Werewolf: the Apolcalypse game and a Changeling: the Dreaming BESM conversion. In one fashion or another, all of them burned down, fell...

    Tweaking a villain?

    Ooh. Thanks for all of the cool ideas. I'll check out the Thrall of Graz'zt. I'd initially discarded the idea of sorcerer, because a handful of weak spells didn't seem to be worth the CR increase, but I'll take another look. One-shot magic items could also be fun, and I'd gotten out of the...

    Tweaking a villain?

    If you're one of my players, shoo! Shoo! So, I'm running a D&D game which is mostly centered around fighting and loot gathering, with moderate amounts of RP face time mixed in. The game was originally a 3.5 conversion of the old Temple of Elemental Evil, but has diverged from that game plan...

    As a player/DM do you prefer one powerful monster or many weaker ones?

    I'm a newbie-ish GM who's been running a 3.0/3.5 game for about six months, and my sense of tactics is developing pretty sluggishly. For a while, leery of accidentally killing characters, I've erred on the side of lots of weak antagonists. This worked okay, but was getting boring because the...

    Druids as alienists?

    Thanks, and I'm also a bit dubious about the Mark of the Chosen. Looking at it again, I might swap Mark of the Chosen and Insane Certainty. That would require the character to be at least 13th level before getting spell resistance (the same as monks), and while her SR would be slightly better...

    Druids as alienists?

    Argh, I typed up my rough draft and formatted it for the forum, and then my post was eaten. Here's the rough draft (made before I saw the post about druids and metamagic--I might ask the player whether she'd prefer metamagic feats instead of the "Mark of" bits I added). ----- Servant of the...

    Druids as alienists?

    Wow, I didn't expect so many responses. Thanks for all of the suggestions. In no particular order... I'm aware of the two pseudonatural templates. When the player was reading out the pseudonatural familiar bit, I nearly had a heart attack until I realized that Tome and Blood had its own...

    Druids as alienists?

    I hope this is the appropriate forum. Feel free to yell if it isn't. :) One of my players has become very interested in the idea of an alienist-type prestige class for her druid. The game can certainly withstand a bit of strangeness, and she's enthusiastic about it, so I'd like to oblige...

    How often does language come up in your game?

    I didn't intend for language to be a big issue in my game, but one of the players is obsessed with being able to speak every language they encounter. It's becoming more useful than I expected, since they're able to communicate with (and thus bluff) more and more of the creatures in the dungeon.

    CD3: -=- THULLGRIM -=- please read last page

    Thank you for the invite. :) I realize this dungeon is in the final stages, but figured I'd ask anyway to be prepared when/if it happens again. I registered because I had a job that summer that left me sitting at a computer for long stretches, and that's when I discovered the addiction of...

    *goes to Amazon for Roleplaying for Dummies, plus gift copies for a player or two* *sends elite goblin hacker team to find a back way in to the mailing list* *hires bugbear character witnesses* *reaches end of post* ...Oh. Well, that's not so bad. Thanks. :D -Adrienne

    CD3: -=- THULLGRIM -=- please read last page

    Apologies if this isn't the right place to ask, but... this whole thing sounds pretty neat. Is there an official homepage or rules or anything to read, or do people just jump in and help? Thanks, Adrienne
