The Gaming Den

I never said it made sense... I just took it to mean such.

Next up on my list: Making said campaign setting. It'd be like Dark Sun, except deadlier, but also happier.

Beer has that effect.

Would you mind clarifying that last bit? You mean, he would only have hardness if someone specifically targeted his hands during a sunder attempt?

Also... what are Sword of Sharpness?

Off Topic:

Where did that picture come from, cielingcat?

Sweet. Thanks for the clarification.[br][br]So... even if he used the "soul eating" feats, the soul that he ingested still wouldn't be consumed? I mean, the power to heal yourself ought to come from somewhere?[br][br]Also... if they are released when he was killed, but he had the Memory of...

Could a RoW samurai that came from, oh, say, a githzerai culture designate "his hands" or "his body" as his Ancestral Weapon?[br][br]And... if he did, when he killed someone, and the enemy's soul went into his body... would he be consuming the soul? And if he had the Fiend soul c...

By how they balance, I took to mean, "How do they avoid actually falling on their face all the time."

Australian Adventures?

Thinaun.

Except that thinaun only holds one soul at a time (From Complete Wasteoftime... I mean, Warrior.)

Alastair Reynolds.

OK. Updated Vulcan's Candle. Now for one more fun thing:[br][br][br] Sky's Edge [br] Once, a long long time ago, a man did something really stupid to help his people out. So they hung him for it. This was that stupid thing. [br][bonus points to anyone who knows where this name/flavor came from][br][...

As in, why don't centaurs walk around on their face all the time?

So which one would you make your Ancestral Weapon?

Well, that killed it.[br][br]:D No worries. [br][br]Anyway, I too used to love to play monks. Until, you know, I found out they suck.[br][br]Now I play "Goddamn Batmen." There was a period in there when I didn't play, and then I wound up playing the Heal-Bitch... but I have seen the light....

Hey - he's right.

Now we just need to add mechanics for cutting souls.

"You die. Now. No save. And you don't go to afterlife. You lose."

So what's a good school to "ban?"

Thanks for the clarification of secret page.

Also, I was thinking something like Wizard 5/Incantatrix 10/Archmage 2 (Arcane Reach and Mastery of Shaping)/Wizard 3... but something more interesting for those last three levels would be nice.

OK. So you still have to use up the same number of pages? (8 for an 8th level spell, say?)[br][br]Also, are we speaking of the PGtF or MoF version of the incantatrix? This would matter. I'm assuming PGtF... [br][br]EDIT: What's the easiest way to boost Spellcraft checks to make those high Incantatri...

How exactly does secret page interact with the stricture that a spell takes up a number of pages in a spellbook equal to it's level?[br][br][br]EDIT: Also, on the incantatrix prestige class - do I really have to give up another school? So I'm both a specialist Abjurer and Conjurer (wonder what happe...

Yeah... I realized I was looking at the table entry for 0 level spells.[br][br]Anyway. I've got Detect Magic, Read Magic, and Acid Orb x3 prepped in those slots - I'm not sure how 0 level spells interact with specialization. I assumed "normally", which means 3 speciality slots and 2 for an...

So. What should my first level feat be? I get Scribe Scroll for free... I'm thinking a metamagic feat.. but I don't know which one.

Suggestions? And we play on Saturday, so I'll post a thread over in In The Trenches and let folks know how it went.

So, a first level wizard can prepare 3 spells of level one at 1st level. I have a 20 Int, which gives me 2 bonus spells of that level, and I am a "focused specialist," which gives me 3 additional slots at every level (one for regular specialization and two for "focused specialization....

Any idea on when the next edition is coming out? Really looking forward to it.

Then Frank's answer is even more true. I don't know about you, but I personally am not a fan of "The Mass Combat Mini-Game." Really. I don't want it to be, "Minions! Attack now!" followed by "Minions! Attack over there now!"[br][br]DnD is about a group of people being f...

Seconded on the pubic bone bit. Oh, and the dagger of betrayal is... very mechanically unpleasant.[br][br]That being said:[br][br] Vulcan's Candle (One Handed/Two Handed) [br] It's a candle. With a flame you can't blow out. Sometimes, it has two flames. One on each end. [br][br]Counts as a rod or a ...

That is AFAIK the only place to get Fengut - it's from an old series called "The Far Corners of the World."

Basically the only useful thing that ever came out of that series was this spell.

So. What school should I specialize in, and what schools should I drop?[br][br]Or should I just go with the Elven Wizard Generalist racial sub level? [br][br]EDIt: I ran across a feat in Plot and Poison that allowed you to absorb your familiar into your body, and double the numerical benefits it gra...

Sounds good to me.

Where do I sign?
