Rise of the Unthread! Nightfall's "Ask the Sage!" for Scarred Lands Q&A!

[prchamb]

Thanks for the help. All three spell types fit nicely. I hadn't even considered spells that modify the senses.

I'm also thinking about removing all AoE damage spells, replacing them with ray and orb spells, under the theory that AoE spells aren't very sporting.

I'm uncertain how to modify the spell list for Hrinruuk's epoch. For the slarecian dream, I only had to show off for a few rounds in front of lower level PCs. For this adventure, the PCs could choose to fight against multiple druids with access to level 9 spells. I don't want to just throw together a list without putting in some considerable thought.

I'd use spells from the Cleric domains of Animal and Plant (that aren't already Druid spells), but I'd throw in a lot of the new Ranger spells from the Spell Compendium. Maybe some Assassin spells too. I'd probably also make the longbow a druidic weapon.

Two,

Hell I've always thought druids should have access to long and short bows. It's common sense.

Prc,

Whatever floats your boat. I do suggest you consider Two's suggestion, but again look closely at what schools are involved.

How would E6 and SL mix?

Would the setting suffer for it? Or is it a perfect match (fx, I think Eberron was designed for E6 - E6erron, as some poster called it)?

What is "E6"?

 

[Matrix Sorcica]

Ah... sorry. Follow the link: http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=202109

Yowza!

I honestly have no idea. I don't think Scarred Lands are terribly "high fantasy", but it certainly has room for such. I'm sure E6 would work in the setting, but probably it'd work better if you advanced the timeline of the world a few hundred years, let some of the high-fantasy themes shake themselves out.

Two,

Eh maybe but it can still work within the confines given so far.


Sorcica,

To answer your question (which was posited to me before) I think it would be fine considering my own SL campaign is kind of slight hybridization of Iron Heroes and regular D&D. Certainly the "little to no magical items beyond some potions, a few scrolls and the occasional wand" combined with a system that allows a PC to "grow" their own items, I feel makes for a feeling that SL has.

It's all a matter of perspective I feel. Now if you tried doing SL with NWoD I'd probably have to hurt you.
