Open mouthed green headed relief in dungeon of dread -ranked #1. Had a halfling friend toss in a rock and since it didn't seem to make a sound he stuck in his head to have a look. Hehe!
#2 I've used ...

Well thanks for the replies. It seems only Vestcoat and I give it a single use, but I have enjoyed seeing the possibilities a multi-used fortress could provide. It just seems too powerful for use th ...

Ha Lanthorn - I cannot help but think of Miracle Max "Mostly Dead!" I think your rulling in the first instance would be the one I would have chosen, but there is a catch. I believe the spell works o ...

Your curiosity is justified - the mage in question rolled an 18/00 strength - rolled it right there in front of us (we roll em up together and it was the first time I've ever seen it rolled legit!)) a ...

Just this weekend I was running some players through A1 Slave Pits module. They entered the burned guardroom and were suprised by 8 ghouls and 2 ghasts. Things started going south when it came to sa ...

ok my two coppers worth - first the Xerbo and Osprem temple is correct I believe based on the Assassins Knot referenced above by DMPrada "The Church of Osprem (building 3) ...other Seul Gods associate ...

As far as the card or dice game skill goes I would agreed with rasgon - it is always fun to play the game player vs dm using real cards or dice. If a character is very skilled at a game it its easy t ...

I have always played it as one casting one disease. I think the spell name is not plural and so the effect is so. The discription in the Player's Handbook would probably mention it if it could cure ...

Sorry Vestcoat no luck with the old hobo book - I have just completed a full search of my books and short of finding a few small spiders and a large silverfish I have come up with nothing. A quick s ...

Thats the spirit Vestcoat! Honestly I don't know that I could do it now, but a small recharge should clearly be allowed for the young and adventurous types that frequent the dungeons of Greyhawk. A ...

woot GREYHAWK! and also a woot to my beloved packers (notice the small case). I know this isn't a legitimate answer for some, but WE all own greyhawk, and that is the beauty of it. My Oerth is proba ...

Haha Lanthorn. I got many tats in my younger days, and hey Wolfling three different wolves across my chest (the middle one kinda looks like your avatar)! Sadly no mauses though. I too think a greyh ...

Great topic Vestcoat. I'll admit I haven't used the greyhawk runes in a while. Think I'll start working them in a little more now. I have (perhaps had, as I can't find it now) an old book on americ ...

Not trying to beat a dead horse here but rest in a dungeon is quite possible. The mental and physical exertions of combat take a heavy toll on a person. The number of hours you've been awake are wor ...

Yes Wolfling. I've let players hole up in a dungeon -spike the door closed is often used - to regain healing spells and bandage their wounds. It also tends to give the denizens of said dungeon time ...

I love it. Thanks for the confirmation. I read through the pit fighter Lanthorn, I had forgotten about that one, and will offer that along with the warrior kit gladiator. Didn't find anything in Iv ...

I have two players interested in rolling gladiators, and I must admit I kind of liked the idea. I can see a few background type adventures in the ring so to speak before they escape or earn their fre ...

I was knocking back a few beers the other day with an old pal, discussing the adventures I've been putting my players (my sons and a few of their friends) through lately. I explained how the magic-us ...

True the above mentioned gnomes are one and the same, but if you wanted to give your players just a level or so xp before the giant invasion why not send them to Greyhawk city for some big city fun. ...

Depth and nuance of the orcish race? I find human emotions percieved in orcs to be just that percieved. The nobility of the Orc is that he survives anyway he can, and nothing more. Painful and viol ...

If the gem is evil, then a slow alignment change would be in order until chaotic evil is reached. I like Cebrions idea but would work in an increasingly overwhelming need for more. Plucking the othe ...

many thanks - my memory was't too far off the mark -forgot about the gem one. Like a cool beer on a hot trail you have easied my curious mind. Thank you.

alas, I've left many books behind in my rambling life and now find myself lacking said treatise. Your fine scribery would be greatly appreciated master Lanthorn, and serve to quench my curiosity.

Last year, while introducing my sons to greyhawk, I discovered an error in my DMG. I had cooked up a little adventure and placed this magical poke in the hands of a gambling npc, Roggi. When his luc ...

I agree with you both, wise Mystic and noble Xaris. I should have been a little more specific. I've not been so diabolical as to have my players actually face Wastri himself in the Hools. They are ...

I figured that since the 3rd,10th, 17th and 24th are called Moonday -that was because those are the days of the full moon falls on but I stand corrected rasgon. Why is it called Moonday then I wonder ...

I agree with your value breaksown of the coins DMPrata - with roughly 50 coins to the pound - its a faily simple way to keep things. Its important to remember that the value of items varies widely fr ...

haha - absolutely wonderful SirXaris! Your accounts demonstrate the importance of tweeking the modules to challenge the party. Very entertaining to read. I enjoyed seeing the keep set in the north ...

I agree with you hedgeknight the worst in my opinion is expedition to barrier peaks. Boring is too nice a word. The original Keep on the Borderlands was kind of weak for me so I rewrote the keep and ...

name - Amos
age - 39 (and will be til i hit 50 cause thats an age that commands respect)
location - SE Wisconsin
1st rules - found the old blueish box with the dragon facing a wizard and archer on ...

I've always used 7 days for the festivals. Celene being full at the midpoint of each festival (2nd -4th night) having a 91 day cycle - so yes the same day (Moonday the 3rd). Since Luna only has a 28 ...

One of the founders of our hobby and one of the most unsung contributors to Dungeons & Dragons, Len Lakofka has passed away at the age of 76. Along with the many adventures, classes, spells, and rules he created, Len was also father of the Suel in Greyhawk, designer of their gods, and namesake of the Lendore Isles. The value of his work goes without saying, but his presence will be sorely missed. The adventures of Leomund go on.
