Gfunk-JollyDoc Crossover Story Hour [Updated 4/30]

[Nightingale 7]

Well,has the campaign gone fully 3.5?If yes,I recall that the new Forbiddance no longer bars entrance in the place.It just deals a hefty zap to a creature with a different alignment than the one specified.I haven't read the spell very carefully and I don't have access to my PHB,so I don't know how that change affects the summoning monsters/teleporting part of the spell.
It sure makes City of the Spider Queen difficult to run in 3.5 though.And I had it all prepared to slaughter my newly formed group in

Well...all you need to slaughter your group is that one room with the Mighty Iron Golem and the Wall of Fire.

DM: Ok, the Mighty Iron Golem attempts to grapple you. What did you get on your opposed roll, Mr. Fighter?

Player: (smirking) a 37!

DM: Ok, I got a 58. The golem pulls you into the Wall of Fire and regenerates 21 hps of damage while you take 21 points of fire damage.

Ouch.

Yep, that's the new Forbiddance. All planer travel blocked and a zap to other alignment types (Will for half and SR applies). It does affect all Summoning, Teleport, Plane Shifting, and astral/etheral travel. But it doesn't mention Gate specifically. As a 6th level spell, Forbiddance might be too weak to take out Gate. It depends on how literally you take "All planer travel."

 

[Hammerhead]

Not true. The 4th level spell Dimensional Anchor negates all planar travel, including the use of Gates. Therefore, it would not be unreasonable for a 6th level spell to prevent callings, even if 9th level.

How are the updates coming, master g ???

 

[gfunk]

Sorry, things are really busy here and with the luxury of a three week vacation from gaming things have given me a great excuse to procrastinate.

I will try my best to finish off the next update to this Story Hour so we can switch back to Tilly and Co. in Cauldron.

Note the comment that we are having a 'vacation' from gaming. I always thought that gaming was supposed to be recreational...

 

[gfunk]

For you guys, I guess it may be a bad thing. All you do is show up and play.

But since I am THREE WEEKS behind on updates, I could use the extra time.

For the game, of course.

 

[Lela]

But, see, if you don't use the time to catch up on updates, you're still behind when the "vacation" ends.

Just thought I'd mention that.

This is all wrong! It was all the way down in page 3!

We crave more story hour goodness. More smashing of old alien lady skull!
