When adding a monster theme to a monster, does the monster's level increase? Does it become an elite, as if you added a template? My google-fu is too weak to provide the answer. Any help would be appreciated.

I've written the following skill challenge to simulate locating a group of monsters, then either fighting them or negotiating with them. I'd be very appreciative of any feedback people have. Security The PC's must identify and locate monstrous threats near the settlement, then either reach a...

Mowbray ushers the party into a comfortable skycoach, gets in himself, and orders the driver off quietly.

Welcome to my second Living Eberron Adventure! I'll try to actually have rules and a style I stick to, but I'm still new at this, so you can expect some changes over time. Tentative Rules 1. Try to post at least every other day. Let us know if you're going to be gone for a long period of time...

This begins the adventure thread for Final Words. I'll try to keep this moving -- at least while not in combat -- once per day. Feel free to pulp things up a bit if you like. Bonus points given for people who get my occasional homages. You should expect to use your hero points here. Bront will...

As presented in Unearthed Arcana via the good folks at the D20 Hypertext SRD. Bard Variant: Savage Bard The savage bard is a warrior at heart, though his arcane powers strike fear into the enemies of his tribe. Savage bards often multi-class as barbarians to improve their combat prowess...

(Proposed for approval by the people who approve such things.) Nomenclature Clerics of Sela refer to things related to Sela as Selan. Selan clerics often characterize themselves by the aspect of Sela they emphasize -- which is usually one of their domains. Selan Clerics with an emphasis on...

If you're reading this, then my link from the Red Dragon Inn worked! This is "Short and Sweet", an adventure set in the Living ENworld. Currently playing are the characters Jaan Saresaar, servant of the Greenman (and a paladin, says Theo, very impressed) Wilhelm Irontower, Priest of the Fire...

I play in the Living EN World game. One of my posts is getting into my character's background and the reason he left a perfectly safe farmer's life to go be an adventurer and get his head bashed in. Specifically, it's an Epic Divine Vision (tm). I will put it in the next post here. If anyone...

Unearthed Arcana introduces a variant rule that turns D20 into D666: instead of making saves, skill checks, and level checks on a d20, make them on 3d6. I understand this turns a flat probability curve into a bell curve, decreasing the randomness of the game. I think this should help the PC...

The party druid got tired of being swallowed whole...It's been a theme. This afternoon, she got swallowed whole, grumbled a bit, and after a couple of rounds flailing about with a dagger, had the bright idea to wildshape herself into a Dire Porcupine. Combat grinds to a halt as I make funny...

I've had this idea for a movie trailer stuck in my head for about three weeks now, so I figured I'd write it out just to get rid of it. Yes, it is, in fact, a movie trailer for the Witchfire Movie (based on the Iron Kingdoms trilogy) If you like it, good for you! If you don't, write something...

I've got d20 Future, and I'd like to run a Firefly campaign in a fairly hard sci-fi style. So I need a solar system with lots of human inhabitable planets. It occurred to me that the best way to generate that system would be to steal from Odyssey 2010: imagine a solar system like ours, but with...

I'm working on a low-magic setting for something vaguely like Europe in the late 1600's, and am seeking advice, feedback, validation, or criticism. Please feel free to add any of the above. The world is shaped a great deal like ours. The major continent for purposes of this game looks a great...

This post commences a story hour set in the Iron Kingdoms setting by Privateer Press. It is not precisely as other people might have envisioned the Iron Kingdoms: more fairypunk with steam, filtered through the American southeast. We hope you enjoy it.
