    any l5r fans?

    Hello all. I played Legend of the Five Rings card game some time ago....I'm probably going to show my age here.....but it was about a decade ago. I was re-hashing some old stories when my buddies and I decided to take up the call of the Empire again. Does anyone know what the most current...

    L5r

    Thanks for the tips. I think i should probably see what sort of interest I can drum up from my players in order to see if it buying into a new system is justified. Otherwise, I guess I'll have to try to incorporate Rokugan into our DnD game. Thanks -Dross

    L5r

    Has anybody played the role-playing version of Legend of the Five Rings? Is it d20? Is it good? I played the card game a few times with some friends, and ended up really enjoying the history and storylines. I was hoping to get some feedback before dropping a bunch of money.....I've been burned...

    Sneak attack inside a creature?

    I think in this case, we are forced to gloss over a lot of logistics....not the least of which is that once a character has cut himself free from the gizzard, the swallowing creature is still in good enough shape to continue fighting, and the 'muscular action closes the hole' so that when/if the...

    Sneak attack inside a creature?

    Suppose a purple worm swallows a rogue, with its 'swallow whole' ability. When the rogue is trying to cut himself out, does he get sneak attack dice? When this came up in game, I didn't have a whole lot of time to look up all the rules. I ruled that no sneak attack dice applied since the rogue...

    Prestige Class help.

    The invisible blade prestige class from complete warrior does a pretty good job of inserting a rogue onto the front line. I don't have the book in front of me right now, but it looks like your feats mesh pretty well with it. You should ask your DM if he (or she) allows the phbII ability to...

    d20 Modern Questions

    I am hoping to start a campaign with a total bend towards realism. Thus, no magic, no magical beasts, or psionics. Basically it will be "hollywood" realism (think roleplaying through the "Die Hard" movie). With that in mind, which books would be worth my time? I appreciate the help. Nothing is...

    d20 Modern Questions

    d20 modern products I am tempted to break into the d20 modern world, but I am unsure what the "core" products are. I checked WotC, but the products link is bad. Could anybody enlighten me? Thanks -Dross

    VoP and Mind Blade

    would the mind blade enhancement enhancement bonus (the bonus for advancing as a soul knife) stack with the VoP exalted strike bonus? -Dross

    VoP and Mind Blade

    Manifesting a mind blade does not break a vow of poverty does it? Assuming it does not, do mind blades make good VoP candidates? -Dross

    quickling

    I'm looking for the fey version. Essentially I am running a fey campaign. All the PCs are fey. The bulk of the action will involve the Seelie Court and the Unseelie court. I am mostly drawing from Celtic mythology, but I am trying to map the mythological creature to the DnD equivelent. creatures...

    quickling

    is there a 3.5 (or even a 3.0) version of the quickling? In 2e the quickling was basically an evil sprite. It had no wings, but was insanely fast, thus the name. -Dross

    How do you incorporate checks?

    For certain skills, it is sometimes nice for the DM to have a set of pre generated rolls behind the screen. Then as opportunities for skills come up you can secretly determine a players success. This is most useful for roleplaying skills (sense motive and the like). Basically usefull anytime a...

    Spider Climb and Attacking?

    Quote from the SRD: "Slippers of Spider Climbing When worn, a pair of these slippers enable movement on vertical surfaces or even upside down along ceilings, leaving the wearer’s hands free. Her speed is 20 feet. Severely slippery surfaces—icy, oiled, or greased surfaces— make these slippers...

    Is the Dervish overpowered?

    No, you are not wrong. Most opponents will not even get one AoO, because any dervish worth his salt will be successfully tumbling the whole time. Despite this fact, this ability is no different than removing the movement aspect and just giving a bonus to hit and damage for the listed duration...

    Void Incarnate

    I realize that it doesn't make the void incarnate invisible, but the wording: "Opponents of a void incarnate unconsciously ignore the void incarnate's presence starting at 3rd level." leads me to believe that since opponents are ignoring the VI's presence, then they would not be able to target...

    Void Incarnate

    does anybody have any thoughts on the matter? I'm joining an epic campaign tomorrow and was considering taking this class, but I don't quite know the implications of the class abilities. -dross
