I'm working on a method to help my players have input into the elements of my new 4e campaign setting. Here is my first draft for my players, please comment. The setting is called Maelstrom. During its golden age the as-yet-unnamed Empire was the hub for a multi-planar society -- basically...

I seem to remember a spell that specifically disguises one as an undead. Can anyone refresh my memory? thanks.

A friend of mine and a Story Hour contributor has opened his own comics and gaming store here in Athens, GA. While his "Grand Opening" will not be until March, when his new comics begin arriving, he's getting more gaming and comic back stock in every day and is open for business. If you are in...

I am running a game with 13th level characters who are running into 10 -16+ npcs on a regular basis. I think I do okay running the combats at this level of play, although I have not done anything this high since the 1st ed. My lack of experience playing at this level has led me to believe that I...

Yuant-Ti Cultist PrC: I cannot read the listing for the Con damage for Snake Darts on my darn photocopy! My book's at home. Anyone have the book at hand? Thanks, my PCs will hate you for it. :D

I left a vital page of equipment for an NPC for tonight's game at home! Can anyone with access to a DMG tell me the standard wealth (GP allowance) for a 12th level NPC? (I wish that was in the SRD.) Thanks; my players will hate you for it. :D

Does the use of a standard attack (with the Flyby feat) provoke an attack of opportunity? Assume the person being attacked does not have a reach weapon.

Okay, I'm going to be running a 3.5 game for some old D&D buddies - some as far back as high school in the 80's. The PCs (bard, sorcerer/barbarian, cleric, and wizard) are around 14th level. Anyhoo, the setup for the game is that one of the PC's parents (the bard's) were framed for a murder and...

Looks like I will be running a game for some of my old gaming geek buddies in a few weeks. This is going to be a one-shot affair over a weekend. I do not have time to come up with something whole cloth so I was hoping some of you could come up with some ideas for modules that might fit the bill...

This is not a love or leave it post... For clarity's sake I hope that we can soon drop the [3.5] from the topics, etc. The revision is standard D&D and d20 now (with the publication of the SRD). I think it will be much clearer if we used version #'s or other designations to distinguish older...

My FLGS got the books in yesterday but no conversion guides. Did you get hold of one? Anyone else have this happen?

Got mine today. Looks great. It not 3.5 from now on. It's D&D, thankyouverymuch.

I'm headed to visit my in-laws in Homosassa/Crystal River (FL) area. We may be taking a trip to Tampa, so are there any not-to-miss game stores around Tampa? Thanks!

Reviews of Patrons of Adventure (Kismet Games) and Everybody Else (Ambient Games) are up at Geek Speek Weekly. NOTE: Be sure to scroll all the way down the page -- both reviews are there.

I thought I read a rule of thumb conversion for $ to GPs in the DMG or PHB, but I can't find it. If anyone remembers something like this, please let me know. Thanks in advance.

Sorry if this is old news, but I didn't see anything on this on the site. What do think about the impending release of revised PHB, MM and DMG?

Patrons of Adventure by Wayne Peacock and Dee McKinney Published by Kismet Games Electronic Book (38 pages) Patrons of Adventure is a collection of 10 intriguing and diverse non-player characters who can be used as a game aid for any fantasy d20 game. Each patron is fully detailed with...

Well, I'm not going to hope for another story hour as good as the last two, for obvious reasons. BUT for those of you who read the earlier ones, I wanted you to know that Palaestra goes on. 1) I'm starting a new campaign with some of the old players (Jon Hanna and Keith Martin) and new players...

Well, I'm not going to hope for another story hour as good as the last two, but for those of you who read the earlier ones, I wanted you to know that Palaestra is not finished. 1) I'm starting a new campaign with some of the old players on Wednesday. I'll be back with character briefs on...

I'm going to have the oportunity to run a maritime campaign soon for D&D and would love to have some advice on useful d20 sources, such as FFG's Seafarers' Handbook, and advice from DM's who have run seafaring campaigns. What worked, what didn't, favorite sources, etc. Thanks!!
