The Gaming Den

So I just came up with this out of the blue. FINAL VERSION Master Plan [General] "14 demons, a beholder, and a red dragon. Looks tough." "Yes, now here's what were going to do..." If you have the opportunity to prepare for an encounter (at least 30 minutes), you may form a master...

Eh. makes sense

The big question. Why the hell is it an 8th level spell?!

Lawful Version "Axiomatic" is an acquired template that can be added to any creature of lawful alignment that is not a non-native outsider (referred to hereafter as the "base creature"). Size and Type: The creature's type changes to "outsider." The Axiomatic has the nat...

If you go by tome of necromancy, then there can be plenty of undead. The way I play negative energy isn't evil, it is the force of death. Therefore, deathless don't exist in my games. If you want to have good aligned undead, then you simply have good aligned undead. Also, thanks for pointing those t...

So here it is. As i said, it's mostly just inverting things. I changed the immunities and resistances, and altered the ability bonuses and spell-likes. "Heresiarch" is an acquired template that can be added to any creature of evil alignment that is not a non-native outsider (referred to he...

Double post.

I very much like the saint template from BoED. It's benefits, and are interesting and have the actually decent LA of +2. But now I want to create a villian with similar abilities, sort of a "saint" of evil. I could imagine that there would be mainly some cosmetic changes, and several inver...

So the dragon's total wealth comes to (*rolls some dice*) 250820 GP or $126,413,280.00

Hmm, interesting.

So the characters in my campaign have somehow entered the modern world and there they encounter a great wyrm red dragon. The creature has the standard amount of treasure value, but it's all in modern currency.

The question here, is about how much would a gold piece we worth in USD?

The title pretty much sums it up. If a vampiric creature happens to have a natural bite attack, could it blood drain when it hits?

So like, when you're fighting against a tribe of orcs, all the mooks are core barbarians and fighters, while the tribe cheftian is a Tome Barbarian? Likewise, standard monsters use the feats they're listed with in the MM, but if you're designing a specific monster to be a boss, you would give it tom...

I was just wondering. When making NPCs for your game, would it be better to have them use tome material (mainly feats) or would it be better for them to use exclusive official published material? Note: This has probably been covered before on this site. If so, can someone direct me to a thread where...

Well it's supposed to mean that effects that increase your caster level don't count towards this feat. Can you suggests a better wording?

I've Got it! Improved Familiar [General] You have something way more cool than a puny toad or raven as your familiar. Prerequisites: Unmodified Caster level of at least 5. Familiar class feature. Your familiar can be any creature with a CR four levels less than unmodified caster level. When casting ...

Awesome Blow [Combat] You teach people how to fly. Benefits: This is a combat feat that scales with your Base Attack Bonus. +0 You gain a slam attack that deals damage as a creature of your size. If you already have a slam attack it's damage is increased by one size category. +1 As an attack action...

Maybe i should include: Your familiar may not be able to cast spells, although they may have spell-like and supernatural abilities.

Ancient History wrote:Probably better to go by hit dice. I like the variant where you can have a staff as a kind of item familiar instead.

Yeah, but if you go by HD then you get stuff like the sorcerer having a pixie familiar that knows irresistible dance at level 1.

I've been using this in my games, and I just decided to post it here to get other gamer's opinions as to whether it's a reasonable power or not. A familiar can be any creature with a CR four levels less than unmodified caster level. If your level is four or less you can still have a familiar althoug...

Awesome Blow [Combat] You teach people how to fly. Benefits: This is a combat feat that scales with your Base Attack Bonus. +0 You gain a slam attack that deals damage as a creature of your size. If you already have a slam attack you gain +4 on Str related checks. +1 As an attack action you can mak...

So here's my first attempt at making a feat. Don't know if there's already something like this. FINAL VERSION: Awesome Blow [Combat] You teach people how to fly. Benefits: This is a combat feat that scales with your Base Attack Bonus. +0 You gain a slam attack that deals damage as a creature of your...

Simple, I like anything that has to do with the Planescape setting, outsiders, elementals, and summoning.

There are things listed as energy damage, despite the fact that it might not make much sense as an energy. How is acid an energy? I can get fire, electricity, sonic, and even cold (which should be the absence of energy but thats an entirely different issue). But how is acid an energy, it's never des...

Cool. So what would the ECl be on the arcanaloth? +1? because I could certainly see myself playing as one of those things at some point.
