    Custom poison rules?

    I'm very interested to find out what you discovered. I have been wanting to see some rules for building custom Poisons. For instance, crafting a poison with customizable properties. The Poison type: Ingested, Wound, Touch, etc What type of damage may be done: Physical, Ability, or state What...

    Please help me with a build.

    What is "cheese" and "gish"? I only know of "munchkin"

    Player Bonuses

    Dross That's an awesome point that I tend to overlook. I have a habit of thinking "based on the background of this character, what skills should they have." I have a problem with either making a skills need too obvious, or giving no hint at all. On one hand, it's great when a player figures...

    Player Bonuses

    Ya know, I only added the Scribe Scroll to balance the Brew Potion the other character is getting. And I like the idea of just making it a skill bonus, but that doesn't seem to have much practical value. I'm not sure what you could do with just scribing; with a Scribe Scroll (since the character...

    Player Bonuses

    I've made a campaign that is comprised of islands that are specialized at a class/skill or technology and some are based even on different eras of earth. I'd like some help with the bonuses I'm giving to citizens of an island. Specifically whether they are far too overpowered, and if one is...

    Iron, Gears, and Steam

    It seems improbable to just remove the acrane part of the Mechanika. However, I found Servitors can be built with only one skill (Craft Mechanika) and a Craft Wondrous Item Feat. Constructing Servitors is pretty confusing to me though. Not even sure how to roll for succesful build.

    Iron, Gears, and Steam

    While looking more at equipment in Steam and Steel I found many of the items I were interested in required a Caster level. This is bad considering the intended character to have the equipment and use the Craft skill is a Rogue. I'm supposing I might simply cut out the Arcane portion.

    Iron, Gears, and Steam

    Could still really use some help with all these skills. I tried taking devices crafted via Steamworks and putting it into a different skill from Iron Kingdoms, however the Crafting DCs don't translate very well. For instance, Craft Clockwork has three types: a Simple, a Complex, and an...

    Iron, Gears, and Steam

    Here's an issue I've found with the Craft (Steamworks) versus the rules within the Iron Kingdoms multiple skills. With a rank of 9 in Craft Steamworks I can craft an Automaton that requires no use of the Jack Handling skill (similar to Handle Animal) Automatons can understand a single language...

    Iron, Gears, and Steam

    I'm using two sourcebooks for Steampunk devices. Iron Kingdoms has Craft Mechanika, Craft Clockwork, Craft Steamengine, and others. Craft Mechanik seems to be a base crafting skill for the others. Problem is, I'm also using Steam and Steel which has Craft Steamworks. What should I merge with or...

    URGENT - Monsters of Faerun

    Thank you very much for the replies. It's been a few years since I've played and while I stopped short of achieving a 'full' collection when I did play, returning has brought up new confusion. In many cases I'm not sure if some books are simply a revision of a 3.0, or completely new. Couple...

    URGENT - Monsters of Faerun

    That's totally possible that I had only seen the art. I can vaguely remember seeing the book about ten years ago when I used to play in high school. Updating it's content with the 3.5 rules won't be a big deal, I just know I've seen a few of these monsters in the 3.5 Monsters Manual. I know...

    Enviromental Hazard Ideas Please

    I tried hard to think of something that hasn't been mentioned but could only come up with magnets.

    URGENT - Monsters of Faerun

    I apologize in advance for the dramatics of the title, but I believe I am lacking time. I recently purchased Monsters of Faerun and as I was looking through the pages nearly every monster was one I had seen before. Now, I'm not sure if it is that I saw all of them years before in this very...
