Some questions

Post by Rigon »

I was converting an old character and I thought of a few questions.

1. Does the Half-elf's attribute check modification include saves as well?

2. Does the Half-elf's Empathy ability include saves as well?

3. The character had a Scimitar of Speed (2e). How would you convert it? (In 2e, it inabled the character to win initaitive automatically.

That was basically it. I may come up with some more. Thanks

Another Q: Does Con modifiers to HP continue after 10th level or do they stop.

I would think they continue, a character should recieve the benefit of a high Con score, but thats my opinion.

I would (actually will be) allowing CON bonus to continue to accrue after "Name" level. There's no harm in it, considering the kind of dangers that I am considering tossing at such a high level party.

Instead of automatically winning the initiative, I would say that he is assumed to roll a 10 for each initiative then add any modifiers. This represents the character moving as quick as his body will allow and remove the problem of an "always\automatic" rule; as well as allowing him to lose initiative to very high dex or god like beings.

Are the Con bonuses "per level" or "per hit die"? That will give you the answer of whether or not they continue.
