Got a bit of a shock last night...was online in Hlint when suddenly there were two massive (well they seemed massive anyway) explosions straight after each other which basically made our house ring like a bell. After checking the rest of the family and ringing the emergency services went outside to see what had happened but apart from all the houses down the street having smashed windows from the blast (our double glazing survived thankfully) everything seemed normal, although there was a strange sort of smell on the air. Anyway at first we were told that someones gas cooker had exploded and people sort of drifted back into their homes but then the police turned up enmasse and evacuated everyone. It turns out that the guy behind us had a house packed with explosives and firearms....not sure about the details yet but we've just been allowed back, after 12 hours. Well the good thing was that no one it seems was hurt, which is a bit amazing actually. So just waiting now to find out more details. I have to say its been a pretty awful month this month so far

Sea Elves are supposed to be immune to drown spells...however they're not immune to be drowned by their own summons. Earlier today Nereus was drowned and killed by his own waterspout which seems to be an odd fate for a sea elf

New Illusion Spell - Disguse Self as per the PnP spell this spell would disguise the caster perhaps acting a bit like the change appearence command giving a new random appearence for the caster. Perhaps lasting for 1 turn per level and instead of a level 1 spell perhaps it should be higher maybe level 4 or 5. The advantages of such a spell for RP are immense as well as being useful for monster subraces

The thread 'NWN and Spell Protection' has prompted me to ask how NWN deals with concealment. Basically if Bilvikki was level 16 and casts the following spells what would his Concealment values be?
1. Ghostly Visage 5/+1 DR and 10% concealment (cast for the DR)
2. Shadow Shield 50% concealment (cast for the death magic immunity)
3. Premonition 75% concealment (I think thats the right value but I'm not too sure but cast for Concealment anyway)
So three spells all with concealment....I've assumed that it was the value of the last spell which counted so in this case premonition, but I just wondered if anyone knows for sure?

I'm really sorry to everyone who was going to play 'Abyss of the Soul' tonight but I'm going to have to resedule it til saturday. I know how annoying this is for players and I hate it when it happens to me, but I've just finished a 24 hour shift at work and it was very very busy, normally they're pretty quiet and I get some sleep, but not last night. And this on top of the the three calls last week and the fact that the week was a nightmare in itself. So I'm completely 'knackered' and I probably won't be much good tonight so to be fair to the story and the players I've moved it to the next best slot. Again I'm really sorry....I may be on or not today depends if I can sleep or not

I would like to see the jump skill implemented if that was possible....it would have an effect on bonuses to climbing and to tumble as well (something like a +2 bonus to tumble checks for every 5 in jump and +2 to jump for every 5 in tumble). If we need to have a ingame sequence for it (not really essential) perhaps something like 'take to the sky' feat that the cleric's bird has but over short distances. Of course it would have penalties for armour and for weight and if it was possible the number of items you're carrying.
Just a thought

Bilvikki no longer looks like his normal self...Just logged in and discovered that his improved goblin skin seems to have reverted back to the original default

I just want to apologise to Sakura and everyone else on the quest last night for disappearing during the quest. I was halfway through typing a sentence and the power went off, only momentarily but enough to reboot my PC then before it managed to finish loading windows, it went off again. I waited around for half an hour in the dark but it never came back on.
*sighs* it was really good too...and what was wrong with that wall?

I've just noticed that timestop is still available for crafting onto a scroll in the greater scribing station but I wonder if it should be removed and maybe replaced if its now a feat type spell

The barmen in the inn in Lar seem to be general store vendors rather than barmen

Just wondered how the dc's for scrolls are worked out. The reason I ask is that Buppi just tried to use a scroll of light which is a cantrip and it had a DC of 25. It just seemed a bit high that was all

You have two sides, one out in the field and one in.
Each man that's in the side that's in goes out, and when he's out he comes
in and the next man goes in until he's out.
When they are all out, the side that's out comes in and the side that's
been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out.
Sometimes you get men still in and not out.
When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and
when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in.
There are two men called umpires who stay all out all the time and they
decide when the men who are in are out.
When both sides have been in and all the men have out, and both sides have
been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not
out, that is the end of the game!"

I was just looking at the spells a ranger can cast and at level 4 the ranger gets a polymorph self spell which is exactly the same as the wizard/sorcerer one. This means he can transform into a Pixie, Troll, Umber Hulk, Giant Spider or Zombie. This seems a bit odd for a ranger especially turning into a Zombie or Umber Hulk. I wondered if it would be possible to change this spell to a more rangerish one perhaps a selection of animals that would suit a ranger more?
I'm sorry for any rangers who really like this spell but I just though it looked a bit odd for a spell a ranger would cast.

*Bil rushes into the inn and uncharacteristically buys himself a large stiff drink...then he gets up and annouces to all present the following in one breath*
You beware or you will die...yes you will if yous goes to the broken forest....Bil just escaped with his life yes he did....Bil was attacked by powerful mummy who kills Bils Hound Archon with one punch yes it did....Bil was terrified so bad he couldn't move no he couldn't....Mummy says to Bil that he must leave or suffers pains more than Bil could imagine and Bil can imagine a lot yes he can...then mummy seems to change its mind yes it does and tries to kill Bil....Bil helpless yes he was but mummy suddenly spoke with other voice yes it did...It pleaded for Bil's life and Bil managed to runs away....You beware or you will die....
*he then runs from the inn still looking shocked and a bit bruised too*

...So it begins. My arrival in this place was a suprise to me, and to others, but now I see the hand of the Dread Spider in bringing me here. The bland dreariness of the lesser races that I have had to endure in this place, has only confirmed my belief that the drow are the rightful rulers to the surface lands and it won't be long before we reclaim them in bloody victory. But aside from that I must focus upon my greater and more important task, the one that my Lord has commanded me to do and the one in which I dare not fail. After meeting a number of the drow in this place, I have discovered that most are faithless and have discarded the teachings of our great Lord. This would normally mean death in a most creative way but here it seems the normal way of doing things must be suspended for a time. It is my task to bring the these drow together and to reclaim their body and souls for my Lord, in this way we may begin to seek the ascendance of Baraeon Ca'Duz over the other petty gods. However the difficulty of this task has been compounded by the threat from the east, that this petty godling Blood poses, slight as it is. In dreams the Dread Spider has instructed me to aid these comtemptible creatures in their war against this aspiring godling, why I do not know but as his faithful servant I must obay. So I intend to create an army of faithful drow to fight alongside them as we must, until that battle is won, and win we shall for the will of the many eye'd is upon us.
A start has already been made...a couple of days ago a bard spoke to me of an alliance of dark souls and spoke of possible entry into that hidden circle, that it shall come to pass is not a concern, as the Dread Spider no doubt brought him to that place to bring such a message. Today also I met another, a faithful drow this time and I shall take that as a sign of approval from our Lord. This is the place to start, the place to lay the first trembling strands of the web that soon will encompass all who live upon this land and then when the time is right, the battles fought and won, the web shall reveal its terrible secret and the Dread Spider shall come forth to feed. Let it be so.
