There was a decent sendup of RPG's and gamer lifestyle on the Cartoon Network's "The Regular Show" last night. The show is awesomely bizarre normally but this was over the top. I'm sure they'll replay it all week at different times. Catch it!


I've scanned several threads about this but I need some input. The phrase "You do not receive additional natural attacks for a high base attack bonus. Instead, you receive additional attack rolls for multiple limb and body parts capable of making the attack " leads me to believe that a creature-say a cheetah- gets 3 attacks (bite,claw,claw) as a standard action as that is under the standard action section of combat, while the "full round action" section never specifically mentions natural attacks but more or less refers to pc's multiple (iterative) attacks. In grognardsville we always gave the animals their attack "routine" claw-claw-bite or whatever. But this is a new way so help me out. They only get the "routine" as a full round action? Makes sense, yet it isn't specified in the rules.


2 people marked this as FAQ candidate.

The spell entangle (Druid Level 1) states:"This spell causes tall grass, weeds, and other plants to wrap around foes in the area of effect or those that enter the area."

Does that mean friendly creatures are not effected (such as members of your party)? And does the "those that enter the area." refer to foes or any creatures that enter the area?

I'm of the opinion that it DOESN'T apply to the Druid and his friends, but at a session the other night this was called into question and I would appreciate some feedback from you, the gamerati on the subject.


ANONYCON is advertising a PFS game, obviously someone here must be running it. Just wondering about the details, I'm not a big Con guy normally, but we're talking Pathfinder way out here on the east coast!


A friends bringing Reign over tonight for us to judge it's viablity and mechanics, anyone have good or bad luck with this system?

Hello, is there anybody in there?

[ooc] Couldn't resist the Floyd reference [ooc]


I went on Chaosium but the link is busted....I just wanted to try it out before I invest in the system....I lve cthulhu, but wanted to make sure the flavor was there! Just a litle sample to get started...it's either this or I may go shadowrun...but I'm more into the eldrtch stuff


There is a human slaughterhouse
Up on the hill, the road is red
And those who ignore
And those who pretend
It does not exist
End up in its hall

My blood goes to work
I hear the howl

There is a grove of bleached bones
Where lupins vomit children's limbs
Taking all their liberties
With parts of human anatomy

And in the hollow of a restless soul
Lies no remorse and no disgust
Every kill is clean and pure
Every thought is
cleansed in growls, yeah

There is a grove of tortured forms
Where all is dark and deeds are foul
And those who ignore
And those who pretend
That the howl is a joke
Their children lie dead

My blood goes to work
I hear the howl

And then my blood just goes to work
And then I hear the howl
(There is a human slaughterhouse
Up on the hill
The road is red)

And then my blood just goes to work
And then I hear the howl
(And those who ignore
And those who pretend
It does not exist
End up in its hall)

And then my blood just goes to work
And then I hear the howl
Blood just goes to work
And then I hear the howl
Blood just goes to work
And then I hear the howl
Blood just goes to work
And then I hear the howl
And then my blood just goes to work
And then I hear the howl


Best know for the theme to the original Star Trek, Died at 88

Thanks dude! RIP


The Garrison stationed upriver on the lonely mesa, was in a bad state of morale. Just over two years had passed since Kerrigan was assigned here, and soon he would be commander, as the current commander Rollo Thent was returning to Korvosa, and a well earned retirement. Time had not yet washed the bad taste of ineptitude, debauchery, and massacre from the minds of the men-at-arms and things were getting worse.
Since they had started construction on the freshly completed fortress, things had a way of disappearing. It was bad enough supply lines rarely stretched so far as to provide any comfort to the men, but things just downright disappeared, here one minute gone the next. At first this was attributed to a kind of Shoanti insurgency but soon it was obvious that the only Shoanti within the walls had left the nomadic ways of the tribe behind in favor of civilization. Now suspicions turned inward, with the blood Chelaxian's secretly accusing Varisians among them of selling off the supplies in some Sczarni related schemes. The Garrison stationed upriver on the lonely mesa was in a bad state of morale.

Only one man is in a position to solve the mystery of the disappearing goods and possibly redeem himself in the eyes of the men, and that is YOU. The cellar

Rollo Thent had ordered all supplies moved to 2 store rooms in the cellar of the Keep (#'s 2 and 3 on the map) and a guard stationed outside each door additionally he has had a guard post with 3 men set up in the first cellar room (#1) there is a table, a cot, and 2 chairs along with a fireplace. That was yesterday, this morning it was dicovered even more foodstuffs have disappeared from room #3. The guard on duty was Varisian man named Dravis Puln, who swears he saw and heard nothing all night. It so happens that his brother Ecra Puln was one of the 3 men pulling duty in the guard room (#1) so it would seem blame rests squarely upon the Varisian brothers, who are now sleeping in preparation for another all nighter tonight. Rollo Thent has asked you to determine their guilt in no uncertain terms.

You happen to know just a little more than you let on to Thent. It is well known that there is also a crypt a little farther below of ancient origin and an old well chamber that has a dried up cistern. But an old drinking buddy had previously described these ruins to you (when they were still ruins) and you know that down in the capped off well, lies the entrance to other ancient worm eaten passages that lead you know not where.

My fear is that the new races description allows for a 'power creep'. I let my players create their characters using a 75 point buy, where you get 1 point of ability score for every point spent, with the new ability modifiers I get a 77 point party.

Voila! a new thread as I had a very similar question; is it the intention to up the power level? Even at standard pts buy with 73 pts the racial bonus would add an across the board (all races) +2?

My STAP players are waiting...


Does anyone know somebone that does character/party art for a reasonable fee? I need some cool stuff done (I'm not up to the task myself) and someone on here must do that, no?


I apologize as,I neglected to see the other Dragonlance thread (just saw the top 4 and posted from the hip)so ignore the old Geezer who can't keep up with modern life.....carry on
