Re: asian regions in aihrde?

You'd have to go thru the Divisions of Man descriptions and look at the migration map to really get a feel for it. I've not seen any direct relation to the asiatic civilization...just more of a Mediterranean to Nordic European vibe. One of the ancient humans leans heavy towards Egyptian but died out.

Re: Cost of enchanting items

LOVE the annoyance fee ! I wish I could use that in real life, especially after a day like today ! There have been times when either the client or the engineer in charge has irked me due to being an idiot supreme and I've had to resist the urge to add 25% of the time it's taken me to my project hou...

Re: Spell Question - Prismatic Sphere

I'll use the C&C write up unless there is something that leaves things poorly defined, vague, or simply a logic fail. Then I'll refer back to 1st or 2nd ed. stuff. Given I have a plethora of my own spells created...at worst case I will do my own tweaks and not feel too bad. ;) lol

Re: Spell Question - Prismatic Sphere

Not entirely true if you reference back to the 1st edition of the spell though where it was called a Force Field similar to a Wall of Force spell. Another one of those spells that's suffered from edition edits/tweaking. Given that...the 1e reference does specifically state that Teleport, Misty Step,...

Re: 2e Players' Option

Skills and Powers was what was used to customize your racial abilities using a point system to purchase them. Classes fell under the same type system.

I'd say if that's the case Marcus then Violet needs a little tweak as Energy Field as an effect says pretty much nada about what it stops or functions as a barrier beyond "touch and to wonderland alice!" (chuckles)

We home-ruled this long long ago: I've never really liked the whole concept of burning CON for a permanency...even going way back. Since my group back in the 90's made note of our characters' maximum ages we burned a decade off of their lifespan rather than a CON point. The CON drain effect was alwa...

Re: Protection from Alignment

The nature of the charm spell is that it takes effect at the casting Sam. The protection spell is the same as an automatic save or rather provides Spell Resistance, which, according to all versions of the charm spell, negates the spell at that time which makes the duration meaningless. Command is th...

Re: Protection from Alignment

I would argue that one Sam. While the spell duration is 1 hr/level for charm that only applies if it was effective on the target at the time of its casting. If the target has the alignment protection in effect at the time of initial casting, the charm fails utterly and the spell is toast. If the cha...
