Okay, our last playing session ended with my players CAPTURING the NPC who was going to be the BBEG of the adventure. I didn't anticipate this, so I need to come up with a plausible reaction to keep them in the Adventure, and re-write my conclusion. Also, I need help on another issue. My...

I'm really really picky okay? So bear with me here. I'm starting a new D&D campaign soon. I've been stuck as a player for a couple years, and the reigns have finally passed to me. I'm looking for an NPC name generator... SPECIFICALLY (this would be great) a Forgotten Realms character...

I was just pondering this the other day as a possible campaign villain. Although most Liches would be Sorcerers or Wizards, I don't see any requirements of becoming a Lich which state that a Druid can't become a Lich. At least in the SRD (which is the only source I have in front of me, I'm not...

Well, I recently got back into D&D after a very very long break. When I did, it was time to dust off good old E-Tools and reinstall it. One problem though, I was missing some datasets! Well, I took a trip to Code Monkey Publishing... only to discover... They lost the license for WotC...

I think I may have been using the "Darkness" spell incorrectly. Would others please share their insight? I have been ruling the "Darkness" effect as a sort of dark, impenetrable fog. If you have "Darkness" cast on you, you are essentially blind (unless you have a means to see through it)...

Hey everyone. I have all these minis, and I'm getting pretty good at painting, but I've never done any basing. I have a ton of minis that are already painted that I could get to work on. I've read a few tutorials... pogre's is great... I wish the pictures worked. I don't have any supplies for...

I recently got into Fantasy mini painting. I've mostly been sticking to the Reaper line. Some of my earlier work isn't that impressive, but I think it's improving. I'm just starting to experiment with highlighting and shading and such, so I'm still getting the hang of it. Here's a few shots...

Greetings! I haven't played D&D in a couple years, but I'm coming back now with a vengence. I'm ALSO getting into fantasy mini painting for the first time. I have a lot of experience painting Battletech miniatures, but not so much with Fantasy minis for D&D. The Wizards plastic minis are...

I'm designing a BBEG for my campaign. It involves a Paladin who has been resurrected by servants of Bane, and then twisted to serve their evil purposes. Thus, when the party encounters him, he will be a Paladin/Blackguard. However, I want to give him a little bit more flavor, such that would...

Okay, so here's the lowdown. I'm creating a BBEG for my campaign. 10 Pal / 5 Blackguard He has a Nightmare for a mount. The question is... should I advance the mount as a Paladin's mount is advanced, or just use the standard Nightmare? Should I advance it just ONE increment, similar to how...

Okay, I'm going to say what I want software for, and anyone who is familiar with the multitude of D&D DM's assistant software out there can answer this for me. I want DM software that I can use to: Build NPC's, including spells, equipement, and prestige classes found in all 3.5 and splatbooks...

Question - Does the Overrun action allow you to overrun multiple opponents at the same time with one action? For example P=Player O=Opponent X=Empty square PXXOOXXO Can player P overrun both the Os in the middle as part of a charge action against the O on the end? I understand this involves...

Has anyone used ETools yet with the new 3.5 and other datasets? What do you think? Anyone want to make any reccomendations?

Okay, question. I can't find ANY information about this in the new books. A lot of the Armor Special Abilities do not have enhancement bonuses listed. This is GREAT for determining price. It's wonderful for new armor pricing, and I love it. HOWEVER... Armor is still maxed at a +10...

Greetings! Awhile back, I started using Etools. I loaded it up, and I found a TON of Forgotten Realms datasets to import to it, and suddenly I was a DM on a mission... drawing up NPCs with equipment and prestige classes in half the time it usually takes me. Unfortunately I was doing all this...

Okay, I KNOW I have seen this before. But I can't find it ANYWHERE! Somewhere there is a chart in the DMG, Player's Guide, or something which lists common spells, and the cost to have them cast, examples such as how much a wizard charges to Identify an item, or how much a Temple will charge...

In general, the changes to DR have me both excited and worried about 3.5. I don't want all my players to have to carry around 4 or 5 different weapons. I'm also apprehensive of how monsters with DR will hurt each other. A monster with DR 5/Magic now counts as all attacks being "Magic"? So...

I have a touchy situation coming up in my campaign I'd like some ideas on. Here's the scoop. I have an Evil cleric of Talos who is on a mission for his God. However, he doesn't know what it is, he's just getting pushed in the right direction from time to time. Not too long ago, a crazed and...

Here's a question. Soon in my campaign I'm going to have a rather large encounter with several flying dragons. One of my players has a long spear. He's tried the "Jump and attack in midair" before... and at the time I wasn't quite sure what to rule. Fortunately he didn't jump high enough, so...

Greetings! I know this has been covered before, but I can't find the thread. I've checked the player's guide and the DM's guide, as well as the FAQ on this, and I can't find anything. Scribing a scroll takes 1 day for every 1000 GP in the cost. This, I understand. Somewhere, though I...
