    [d20] What don't you know? (free pdf books)

    You ask one of them, "What door would your brother say leads to safety?" You take the one he DIDN'T say, because: 1) if he's telling the truth, that means he answered as if he was lying, and 2) if he's lying, he's NOT telling you which one his truthful brother would pick.

    A Block Party Persuasion

    So it's come time for the sort-of-frequent block party on my block (not annual, but at least once every 3 years or so). And I feel a bit awkward. I'm 17, and the guests I am personally inviting are all aged 17-22, which puts us in an awkward position because of our age... We're not kiddies, but...

    An Item a day

    I think he was going for a continual emanation of the Epic spell Momento Mori, which is in the Epic Level Handbook. In which case, it'd be a much, much higher price. In fact, it ought to be a major artifact.

    (Un)Lucky with the dice - How can it happen?

    There are ways that most people think solve bad luck that never worked for me. Some people tell me to kiss the dice. They tell me to say different things to the dice. I've heard everything there is to hear and I've done everything short of asking my local priest to bless my dice. No matter what...

    Sweet Dreams.... Or Not! Two New Spells

    I was brainstorming about random stuff last night, pawing through Magic cards mindlessly, and writing down random things in a notebook. So my train of thought crashed and I pulled out these two spells.... Tranquil Sleep Enchantment (Compulsion) Level: Brd 2, Sor/Wiz 3 Components: S, F Casting...

    When Bad Luck Strikes... and Persists

    Re: Re A few points on this: 1) I don't expect to roll badly. I don't WANT to roll badly. I pick up some dice, say "This one's at +6" and toss them on the table. 2) You say the DM should intervene and make a few rolls go my way... how can he force that? 3) I own over 200 dice. I've tried...

    When Bad Luck Strikes... and Persists

    (Some of you regulars (read as: long-time ENBoarders) may have read a few postings I made on these very boards about 1 year ago regarding my campaign.... Well, now I'm a player with some of the same issues I had as a DM. Read on...) I am currently in a campaign with a few of my friends. I am...

    Damage Reduction and Subdual Damage

    I have a question regarding how DR works when dealing with subdual damage. Can I please get rulings on the Situation 1: Fred the Fighter smacks a Random Evil Creature (tm) with DR 10/+1. Since Bob is striking with his bare fists, this is subdual damage. Does the creature shrug off the damage...

    EXP question

    First off, a correction to you... HD rarely if ever is equal to CR when it comes to monsters. Please do not confuse the two or you will be swiftly smitten by the entire pantheon of deities in the PHB. :) To answer your question, in general, following the advancement rules in the Monster Manual...

    Your Playing Group - Do You Like It?

    Just my two cents follows... Sure, my gaming group is made of my three best friends. They're fun to play the game with, they're great to have around, and in general are good people. But when I DM the group, heck freezes over and I suddenly feel like I have three copies of evil incarnate at my...

    calls to prayer...

    Let me guess which class they all played. :p Anyway... I am a Christian and have spoken to some of my local religious leaders about my D&D "habit". Most reponses went something like, "As long as you don't take it too far, D&D is certainly a good thing." One priest, however, responded, "Third...

    [OT] In memory...

    Even though I am young I still understand the pain of having a close, loved one die. I offer my deepest condolences to you & yours, Balsamic Dragon. I will say a prayer for James' soul tonight before I go to sleep. I have tossed a glass of water over my shoulder in tribute to James and...

    Gaming catchphrases, expressions, and idioms--what are yours?

    We have a euphemism in our group based off a former player- "pulling a Nick". We once had a layer named Nick who would do the stupidest things imaginable. He couldn't roleplay, couldn't get the d20 system rules straight, couldn't even figure out which die was which. And he threw dice at me. So...

    Biased Dice: Which ones are most likely?

    Another bump. I'm curious about this, not only for statistical reasons but because some of my dice roll differently than others.

    Biased Dice: Which ones are most likely?

    In your experience as a player, DM, or obsessive die-roller, which dice are the most easily biased, whether by weighting or just by use? I'm curious, because my dice have been acting strangely... ~Chris
