Message: <blockquote data-quote="Eternalknight" data-source="post: 2010986" data-attributes="member: 1075">The latest issue of Dogs of War has hit computer screens.  The third in the series, this issue details two new non-player characters for dungeon masters to use:  Brianna, a female amythest crystalline half-elf telepath/rogue, and Versillion, a male  serpantine red-belly snakeman barbarian.Both NPC's contain detailed histories and descriptions, as well as useful sections on using them in the Freeport, Bluffside and Gothos campaign settings.  What follows are stat blocks for both characters - Brianna is shown at CR 12, 17 and 22, whilst Versillon is shown at CR 5, 10 and 15.  This means that Dogs of War 3 is useful to those who run campaigns at varying levels.Each character then contains a Crunchy Bits section that describes new rules that each character uses.  For Brianna, it contains two domains (Murder and Poison) that make use of many of the new spells in the issue; a new creature template (Crystalline); a new prestige class (Mage Hunter) with suugesstions on using them in fantasy, modern and the Oathbound campaign settings; and eleven new spells (including the very cool Axeman's Touch and very cruel Heart in Hand, which stops a victim's heart).The Crunchy Bits in Versillion's section contains a new intermediate deity (Ssithik, an evil snake god); a new domain (serpent); a new feat (Poison Use); a new monster (the snakeman, which includes a sidebar on various sub-species of snakemen, six in total); the Serpantine and Spitter template (the latter of which is pretty cool - it allows certain creatures to spit poison at enemies); four new spells (one of which has the coolest sounding name I have heard in a while - cobrakiss); and two new magical weapon special abilities.All of the Crunchy Bits are OGC and seem very well balanced and thought out.  The whole issue is very well written and author Charles Plemons has done a great job.</blockquote>
