    How's your Warlock?

    Tender and well-done, and it has that sulphuric afterbite to give it that extra flavor. A real treat after months of only canned paladin. - Graschyronn "The Red Wyrm"-

    Dumb D&D Questions

    Given that a barbarian would certainly object to being sentenced to death by anyone, and given that being 20th level means that he can probably make the objection stick, I'd say the answer lies in using extreme force. Now, if you can make the barbarian be helpless ( a nice highpowered Hold...

    Need some advice in high level group...

    Do you have time to hide what everyone is after somewhere they can't get to it? Maybe in a hidden citadel on the negative energy plane or something, and ask a befriended diety to guard it for a while?

    Mind Flayer Campaign

    Be careful what you put your mindflayers against. Most of their powers are mindaffecting, and those are powerfull. Expect them to go through enemies with an CR of 4+ over their level, but with low willsaves, with ease. Creatures immune to mindaffecting will be very tough. An undead a few levels...

    What's the Opposite of GM's Day? (Free PDF Weekend!)

    Players don't deserve a players-day. A DM deserves an appreciation day, because a DM spends time outside of gaming night thinking up the adventures, working out the encounters, writing up the traps, etc. Now if we need any other appreciation-days, it would be for those other people that make a...

    Worst D&D adventure of all time?

    One more vote for Black Flames. It's even worse because this is a beginning level adventure. Our DM started our Darksun campaign with it. And *bang* first adventure starts with not one, but TWO of the settings most rare and powerfull creatures. We only survived because our DM got the rules of...

    Running Gags

    "Ulrich" The name of one of the pc's in an all-paladin/cleric campaign I ran. His player complained (over and over) about the fact that Ulrich only had 40 hp's at level 5, which put his equal with one of the clerics, and below everone else. An Ulrich has become synominous with 40 hp's. Used in...

    You mean like....gratefull to be skeletons? In the categorie "what were they thinking", I have a DM who faced us with dinosaur size cats, modeled after his pets. We fitted them out with balistas and other weaponry and used them as walking fortresses.

    The Hitchhicker's Guide to the Dungeon

    NPC: Sometimes members of the mysterious organisation known as NPC can be found in the dungeon. This organisation consists of two curious branches. First there is the "redshirt" or "burden" branch. This branch consists of members who are obviously far less powerfull than an adventurer, but...

    What does RAW mean?

    Ah! Tarrasque!

    The problem isn't the tarrasque, it's soundly asleep and with the proper protections could be asleep for a long time. The problem is a monarch that shouldn't be. Using rampaging monsters to play games, with innocents trampled in the process, is not something a true monarch should do. If he...

    Stagnant PCs and what to do.

    Sounds to me like the player just wants to tag along with the party, slay stuff and get treasure. And if he has fun like that, and it doesn't anyone else's fun, there really is no problem. Changing his abilities without asking him about this first can have a bad effect. The player probably...

    When I die, bury me with my dice!

    Buried with my dice? I would rather my dice be used by my fellow players. So I could HAUNT them! Rolling the d20 on it's one with my ethereal touch when a save is due, roll it to a 20 to crit one of the (new) dm's favorite npc. And who would dare to get rid of dice they kept as a memorial of my...

    Help! My players are driving the plot!

    Of course the fire elemental wasn't there accidentily. That would run all the effort the players put in ünraveling the plot". What did the robber rob exactly? Maybe the robbery as a whole was just a cover to obtain a single item that he looted, that was requested by someone else. And when the...

    Is it just me, or are the Olsen twins starting to resemble liches?

    Nope, doesn't look like liches to me. But the idea of the party bursting into the inner sanctum of a young lich, only to find out they're facing twins is going into the Rat-basterd-folder.

    The benefits of a skunk as animal companion: - Whenever the situation arrises that there are only two bedroom's available at the inn for your party, you will get one of them just for you and your pet, while the rest of the party generously offers to share the other one.

    Quick, describe your high-level (10th+) game.

    My players have just reached level 18. They are former agents of the demonhorde that's trying to take over the world. After they got in the middle of a feud between the demonlords Tartarus and Ragnarok, they lost faith in the demoncause. They switched side, and are now on the side of the gods...
