a scout sees a group of monsters ahead, returns to the party and immediately discloses that he saw a drider for example
Good point. As already mentioned above, he can indeed have heard about driders or read about them. However, what does sometimes happen is that DMs use a creature that's also in some location, e.g. the infamous Hlint Crypt Skeleton from the FAQ, and the party actually calls them that "I see some Hlint Crypt skeletons". If you encounter one of these on a quest on let's say, Dregar, please don't say "I see some Hlint Crypt Skeletons", because really, they're not

teefal - 8/9/2005 8:40 PM RP'ing a message spell, do people ignore one of their spell slots? (leave it blank) Do you tell only as many messages as you have slots allocated for them? I've wondered this, since in PnP, you'd have to have the message spell prepared, right?
And that's why I think tells shouldn't be used as message spells.
