Hello Everyone, Next month, I will be running a game for my group where everyone will play a mage, each one of a different school of magic. I wanted to add some flavor to the game by naming each level appropriate to the school (up until lvl 15). I figure the first five levels would...

My group is currently in a small village where a series of grisly murders have taken place (as well as few that have yet to occur). I have nearly everything else planned for the session excpet one of the most important parts: THE MURDERS! Two murders are going to occur, and I was hoping to...

Next month, my group is planning a 3-day marathon session, a rare, rare treat for a bunch of guys who are lucky to game once a month. Given the time between sessions, I will normally start each game with a 5-question recap of the previous gathering. I know some people don't like the "quiz"...

Some quick questions about this spell: 1. Can you cast spells while occupying a host? 2. While the host is imprisoned in the "jar", are they conscious? Are they aware of their surroundings? 3. While possessing a body, is it essentially like remote controlling it? If so, can you do something...

This is an easy question that I cannot pin down the answer for (no pun intended.........okay, pun intended). If a monster successfully grapples an opponent and does damage, the PC is allowed to try and break the grapple on his next turn. If he fails, does the monster (on his next turn) need to...

Not sure if anyone here listens to them, but they were a huge influence for me, in many areas of my life. You will be sorely missed.... RIP. Peter Steele, Type O Negative Singer, Has Died - CBS News

I'm DM'ing a group a five level-6 PCs through a homebrew campaign and next session will be throwing in a little twist to spice things up. I'd really love to get some comments/suggestions as to how to run this as effectively as possible. Here is the abbreviated version: The group is...

In Complete Warrior (p84), under the Tattooed Monk PrC, it states: Multiclass Note: A monk who becomes a tattooed monk may continue advancing as a monk. What exactly does this mean? Do the PrC abilities and Core Monk abilities stack, do you have the option of choosing the core save...

Here's a simple question that I'm not able to find any opposing info in the rules, but I'd figure I'd ask just to be sure: Can a magic user using a Summon Monster spell call up a monster that is of an opposing alignment - are there any restrictions? Thanks!

Quick question: is there a prestige class that caters to (or requires someone to become) a lycan? I have a player in my group who wants to become one, but we're all having a hard time in-game with a charcater who actively wants an affliction. If there was a class based around it, we can at...

We'll be running the next session in our campaign relatively close to the upcoming St. Patrick's Day holiday, and I was wondering: what have you used in your games to add a little of the seasonal touch? I don't want the addition to be a major NPC (or to extend past this session, although a...

Hi Everyone, My wife and I were thinking about throwing a murder mystery dinner for a bunch of friends in the near future (some who play RPGs, and other who don't but like the idea of role playing). I figured this would be a fun, light-hearted way to get people to act in-character without...

The BBEG in my current campaign is on a path to create an artifact which will give him control over a black dragon. While this won't happen for quite some time, I was wondering if there were any notable black dragons (books, movies, etc) that I could draw some inspiration from. Any ideas?

Quick question regarding stirge: can multiple stirge attach to a prey at once? If so, how would one go about knocking them off before they get to use their blood drain ability? If you can only knock one off per round, doesn't that guarantee a blood drain for every other stirge attached? I...

It's been 6 years since the original post (yeesh), but does anyone happen to have the "GM Hold Music" file mentioned in this thread: http://www.enworld.org/forum/general-rpg-discussion/87539-gm-hold-music.html Not sure if it's my network, but I can't seem to access their site. Thanks for your...

Tech Gurus, I would like to know if it is possible to have a laptop connected to a TV for display, but only have certain windows (as opposed to whole desktop) visible. Can I configure the TV as a dual display, perhaps? A real world example would be to display a map of the area on the TV, but...

Is there a comprehensive list anywhere? I'm looking to prestige a new PC that I'm playing, but there are so many PrCs out there, it's hard to know what's available. Thanks!

My group is bringing a 3 year D&D campaign to an end, and we're all pretty much burned out with that system. We're thinking that a nice pick-up board game would be just what the doctor ordered. Can you guys suggest a game that has a decent length and can incorporate 5 players? I was thinking...

Last year was the first time my group went to GenCon and we had a great time. This year, we're making our trip further south to DragonCon. Not ever having attended, how is it different from it's Indy counterpart? As a bit of info, the conventions themselves are entertainment enough for us (as...

I've posted numerous "ghost" threads, so forgive me but I have one more question. We have a ghost PC (Ghostwalk rules) and I am not sure how spells will affect the player. For example, will our spellcaster be able to teleport the PC since he cannot be physically touched? I've found rules for...
