General Discussion / Minimum experience for crafting
« on: January 31, 2021, 01:37:30 pm »
When a character is an absolute expert in making something like a rune, a ring, or bow, the player should get a minimum of 1 point of experience instead of 0 points of experience when they make an item.  When the expert crafter gets 0 points of experience for everything they make, they drop off the list of experts in their craft.

NWN Ideas, Suggestions, Requests / Hail of Arrows Question
« on: November 25, 2012, 10:47:19 pm »
Would it be possible for the "Hail of Arrows" feat to use the arrows currently in the quiver?  The feat would might be more interesting and possibly more used by AA's that have it.

« on: November 05, 2012, 09:27:06 am »
For SehKy, what is considered common knowlege among the elven houses of the Whitehorn about the Broken Halls and the ancient vampire Saproprias?  What can I consider SehKy (Ilsarian of the Whitehorn) as knowing from common knowlege?
 
Thanks!

Ask A Gamemaster / What am I doing wrong?

What am I doing wrong?
 
 Evey time I login with SehKy; change servers with SehKy; or return after a crash; I loose one fourth level spell and all of his eighth level spells.  To be clear the spells in the affected slots are wiped out.  To recover, I have to reselect the spells and rest to get them back that is, if I remember and if SehKy's rest timer has run down to where SehKy can rest.

Just for Fun / Shadon Curses SehKy
« on: August 06, 2012, 02:45:30 pm »
**As a joke, Shadon curses SehKy and the laughter can be heard echoing in the heavens.  SehKy sees a reflection in a forest pool and faints.   Picture of dwarven SehKy.**
 
 //just kidding... this happened spontaniously IG
 
 Recipe for Dwarven SehKy
 
 1) Shake fist at Shadon in the heavens because a thief stole his money in Lor.
 
 2) Dismount Horse.  As a joke, Shadon causes two horses appear and Shadon turnes Elf to Dwarf; elf faints.
 
 3) Take dwarf pic.
 
 4) Remount horse 1.
 
 5) While sitting on horse one...  attempt to remount horse 2.
 
 6) Pray to Ilsare while crying.
 
 7) Ilsare turns SehKy back to Elf.

What can SehKy and Keela find out about the Grove of Illusion after asking around, asking the Nymph, and doing a bit of research on it at the Tower Academy?

There is what appears to be (//mechanically) shrine with a grave stone and and a suspicious red arcane star.

I would like to propose changes to two feats. The Arcane Archer Lore page lists these two Epic feats Devastating Critical and Overwhelming Critical but they don't make any sense from an archer perspective and I think they should especially since they are listed as "Arcane Archer" Feats.

Devastating Critical (longbow, shortbow)
Overwhelming Critical (longbow, shortbow)

The problem is that they require amazing Strength, Cleave feat, and Great Cleave feat, that there is no reason an epic archer would have.

I feel that this is just probably an oversight. The Devastating Critical; Overwhelming Critical were created for general combat characters but somehow it translated for only the mele bashers leaving other combatants out i.e. archers.

I am hoping this was an oversight because archers are capable of critical hits, and improved critical hits and if SehKy holds his bow just so, and places the arrow through an eye socket just right, I would think that SehKy would be able to produce a Devastating Critical or Overwhelming critical hit.

Specific details of the proposal:

Proposed Changes for Overwhelming Critical (longbow, shortbow)
(1) Change Str 23 to Str 23 or Dex 23 required
(2) Change Cleave to Cleave or Called Shot required
(3) Remove Great Cleave requirement
(4) Remove Power Attack requirement

Proposed Changes for Devastating Critical (longbow, shortbow)
(1) Change Str 30 to Str 30 or Dex 30 required
(2) Remove Cleave requirement(**redundant)
(3) Remove Great Cleave requirement
(4) Remove Power Attack requirement
(5) Remove Level 21 requirement((**redundant)
(6) Remove Improved Critical requirement ((**redundant)

**redundant requirements are already required for  Overwhelming Critical feat

NWN Ideas, Suggestions, Requests / Wizard Sumons aligned with Ilsare
« on: October 31, 2010, 06:44:48 am »
Suggestion:
 
 SehKy just completed the Rites of Censer, bringing him closer to Ilsare.  Now when we casts a summons he gets one aligned with Ilsare.  I was suprised that the elves that answer the call were not wearing Ilsare's colors.  I suggest that their colors proudly announce their divine relation.  Consider giving them temple themed cloaks.

Development Journals and Discussion / SehKy Auvrea
« on: April 19, 2010, 01:41:13 pm »
Character: SehKy Auvrea
 Age: 130
 Gender: Male
 Classes: Fighter/Wizard
 Race: Elf
 Alignment: Neutral Good
 Deity: Ilsare
 
 RETURNING FROM THE HUNT
 White Horn Forrest, Mistone
 
 On a late winter mid-morning, SehKy returns to his tree lodge after a short hunting trip. Wearily he hums a cheerful Ilsarian ballad as he hoists the deer and boar meat to hang high in the snow laden branches. Entering his lodge, SehKy stows his bow and quiver and wearily drops down in his chair and closes his eyes. SehKy smiles as his thoughts turn to the Spring Heartsong Dance only a few weeks away.
 
 ...Seasons pass. Hobgoblins push into the lower valley. SehKy joins the militia...
 
 RED-SALT
 In the starlit darkness, SehKy walks silently. Each of the warrior lodges he passes contain twenty to thirty infantry who train daily with both long sword and longbow. The war camp is quiet with the exception of laughter and singing that could be heard escaping each of the colorful hexagonal tents where the lodges train, eat and sleep.
 
 Red-Salt Lodge is a huge tree fashioned into a fort. SehKy follows a narrow trail through a dense coppice surrounding the lodge. Two wide braziers of dark blue embers burn at the base of the stairs signal that visitors are welcome. The blue light reflects off the surrounding foliage giving everything a beautiful blue-green hue. SehKy stops between the braziers and hails the lodge.
 
 An elven woman he quickly recognizes as Fillilion, appears on the lowest landing above him, "SehKy Auvrea ?", she queries. He nodded. She greets him warmly with a wave and smile then beckons him up the stairs and inside. As he climbs the stairs, she turns away and asks flirtatiously, "Have you come to call on me?" looking back over her shoulder she flashes him a smile that would melt steel. He stopped, and looked at her in surprise and smiles back. Without waiting for an answer she beckons him, "Please come in. Follow me." She gracefully hops over roots and dunks under low spots to enter the lodge.
 
 SehKy finished climbing the stairs and carefully enters. He quickly looks over the spacious and warm room. SehKy identifies a tool bench; several bows in various states of assembly; shafts; and feathers beautifully arranged by shape and size all over the walls. Fillilion asked, "Do you like it? This was an old outpost", she smiles gesturing about. "So, tell us, why you are here SehKy", her smile turns mischievous.
 
 "I read a posting that Red-Salt was looking for applicants. I have come to apply." he stated. His heart thumps hard as her smile fades in disappointment. "Ah yes, yes of course", she said excitedly as she pulled a braided leather strap, instantly forgetting her disappointment Fillilion turned and flashed another smile. After a moment several female elves entered from various entrances. He was greeted warmly by Ahlena, Tyneri, Letia, and Marqui as Fillilion quickly informs each arrival that SehKy came to apply to the Lodge.
 
 Letia asked, "You didn't know were a female lodge did you?" they all laugh at his expression. Ahlena smiles, "No, no Letia, Red-Salt is not a female lodge", she giggles shaking her head. "When I joined, the lodge was all male as I remember it." After a pause to gather herself, Ahlena continues, "SehKy we know well your bravery and skill in the field", she looks about the room and each member nods accent to the unasked question. "SehKy we all agree that you are welcome to join Red-Salt", Fillilion hands out sweet drinks and places a plate of fruit out as Ahlena continues, "You should learn more of us before we continue further." SehKy sips his drink and listens attentively. "The Red-Salts have a short but proud history..."
 
 ...Ahlena gives an account of the Red-Salts history...
 
 "Red-Salt has no single leader, only a scribe to record the history of the Red-Salts, and I will gladly give that responsibility to anyone one", they all laugh as she pretends a glare to all around. "From our founding, there have never been more than a score of Red-Salts at any given time. Red-Salt ranks have included magi, scouts, infantrymen, priests, and monks, musicians, story tellers and historians. Red-Salt has always embraced artistic diversity. Just among our current membership are bowmen, fletchers, leather craftsmen, smiths, and an alchemist."
 
 "Red-Salts can leave at anytime and often do. Marriage, children, and other commitments have claimed many over the years. Unlike lodges that only appear during war and dissolve during peace, Red-Salt remains active; travelling from war to war. During peace Red-Salt typically practices our arts and travels."
 
 ...SehKy remains respectfully attentive as it become more and more apparent that he found a proper place with this lodge. This is a place where he can learn to take his archery to a completely new level as well as learn new skills. Ahlena continues to describe the lodges accomplishments and history in verbose detail...
 
 The sky begins to lighten, as intricately woven long-grass baskets containing glowing embers of burning incense were passed around among the five members. One was offered to SehKy. He looked at the members and closed his eyes to look inward knowing that when he accepts the basket offered and offers the oath, he becomes the sixth member of the Lodge. SehKy respectfully accepts the basket, cradling it in both hands, and speaks the oath, not knowing what to next to expect.
 
 ...Seasons as a Red-Salt pass. SehKy learns many skills during the ongoing conflict with the Hobgoblins and becomes intrigued with the Al'Noth. Ahlena encourages him to learn more of Lucindas arts...
 
 ART OF ARCHERY
 Letia and SehKy stand in a meadow approximately 100 feet from the column of tightly bound tall grass that serves as a target. Letia stands firm, perfectly balanced as she draws, aims carefully, and releases her bow causing the string to hum as the released arrow flies toward the target. She is rewarded with a satisfying thunk of the arrow hitting the center of the target right above the mark. "It will be I who will take these beautiful arrows home", she giggles and holds the prize up close for inspection. Letia waves her finger at Sehky, "None of your foolishness now! Be a good elf, take your shot and hang you head in shame", she goaded laughing.
 
 SehKy looks over at Letia with a quiet confidence and a mischievous smile, "I have come upon the realization that your traditional techniques and methods for stance, grip, draw, balance, and release are not necessary." Letia looks over at him with suspicion and watches as SehKy, with one graceful flowing movement sets his feet, hips, shoulders, and grip. Continuing the movement SehKy draws, raises, and releases making a shot like no one else.
 
 Letia exclaims, "What was that? I have never seen any crazy shot like that! You didn't even aim. Are you trying to lose this competition on purpose? Humph. For the sake of fairness I want you to make another shot, a proper shot this time." SehKy smiles at her, "If you care to check the target". Letia glares at him then stomps out to the target to find that the arrow had not missed at all but had passed clear through the target right next to where her arrow was held fast, only eighth of the shaft deep.
 
 SehKy asks from across the meadow, "Is the true artist one who perfectly mimics the song of another? Or is the true artist one who sings a new song?" As Letia walks back to him, he explains "Archery is not only hunting or war. Archery is an art, equal in beauty to any other. With my archery, I sing a new song and I make it as beautiful as I can." Letia attempts feigned anger; "Well, with that crazy shot I am not conceding to you my fine arrows! Some how you cheated and you very well know it!" she giggles and runs off with all but one of the beautiful arrows.
 
 LESSONS IN THE ARCANE
 Ahlena states, "The light cantrip demonstrates the fundamentals and concepts of the Al'Noth that must be fully conceptualized for successful execution. This understanding is only accomplished by methodical study and practice. There are no shortcuts. Read this scroll, not with just your voice, but comprehend what you are reading as well. Light can be used to cause any object to have radiance. You have only to touch the object when case to direct the spell. Should you not direct the spell the light will follow you closely from above." Ahlena gives SehKy time to study the scroll, "Are you ready?" SehKy looks up from the scroll he was reading, "Yes, I am ready" he gathers himself for the attempt.
 
 LAST BATTLE
 SehKy sits patiently on a thick tree branch. Drops of rain water cling to the edges of his oiled deer leather cowl as he peers intently through the darkness of early dawn. SehKys heart skips a beat as his keen hearing isolates the sound of a big hobgoblin creeping toward the Elven front lines. Quietly SehKy selects an arrow as the hobgoblin avoids a thorny thicket turning it away from SehKy. SehKy tenderly caresses the arrow fletching and mouths a prayer to Ilsare in a well rehearsed ritual. His heart beats in his ears as he carefully draws and searches for a kill shot.
 
 ...The season has ended. Many of the lodges disband as hard winter sets in. Red-Salt decides to stay as the tree fortress has become very comfortable and they are reluctant to leave. When spring arrives, SehKy makes the difficult decision to leave Red-Salt for a pilgrimage to the Breath of the Muse. ...

Satari, Jenra 28, 1452
 
 I survive yet another encounter with a dragon. We encountered the golden emerald, Yog'oldrania in the Golden Forest of Voltrex between the Tower of Nature and the Tower of Earth. Yog'oldrania agreed to assist us in finding the Jhemina and their headers in what Yog'oldrania termed as another realm. Yog'oldrania,'s magical mark on my left hand will grant me passage, but I suspect will allow Yog'oldrania to track my movements on this plane and elsewhere.

Ask A Gamemaster / Hempstead Municipal District Tower
« on: May 27, 2008, 09:30:08 pm »
Character Name: Omer
 
 Property: Hempstead Municipal District Tower: Property repossessed by Port Hempstead Administrative Housing Committee
 
 Brief summary of what you want done:
 Omer seeks to purchase the Hempstead Municipal District Tower and get it in the queue to prepare it for occupancy by the: Tower Academy (Guild).  
We are hoping for several floors with small and medium sized rooms flexible for a variety of layouts and purposes including classrooms, offices, library etc.  On the Ground Floor we plan to greet guests, hold meetings and the larger classes.  The upper floors will be used for smaller specialized classes often one-on-one style training.
We would like to have the ground floor be impressive if possible e.g. vaulted ceilings, cool staircase, and cool centerpiece like a fountain.
In general we would like to minimize furniture placed by the tool kit as much as possible so we have the flexibility to configure spaces as our needs change.
