    How do you handle poisons

    thanks Thanks, I suppose poisons would take a bit of time to take effect, which would explain any temporary str, dex, con, type damage. A vigilante sniper I would think would want a poison that would prevent escape so that he could finnish the job. So Str damage may make the target...

    NPC levels...

    In a city where the magistrate or whatever ruler is usually listed as around 9-11th level, what level would you find the NPC clerics being? If you needed to hire a cleric for a ressurection, they would need to be 11 or so I think. How common is an NPC cleric of that calibur? Also the DMG...

    DM needs advice (player death eminent)

    charisma It wasnt like I couldnt properly roleplay the charisma, the NPC had no time to talk. I like the demon blood thing. I have one PC that may be good for it. I think this may serve as an excellent lesson in the importance of dialogue over hack and slash for my players. Thanks for your help

    Plate Armor - It isn't really that heavy!

    just an addition I have worked for a jousting troupe for a bit a couple of years ago, and we did use plate armor. Yes, it is heavy, BUT a physically fit indivudual who has the armor crafted to fit them it is not as cumbersome as you would think. You can still move about freely and such. It...
