    Hmmm, I'm wondering if the Dungeon Master shouldn't be based off Wisdom instead of Intelligence, what with Dungeoneering being a (Wis) skill. It also kind of fits that a in-world Dungeon Master would have a high perception and insight, and they sort of work as evil, arcane druid/wardens.

    Hmmm...

    It could depend on your build options and which powers you pick. Make INT or WIS the primary ability score, and follow up with the other as a secondary or tertiary.

    It works on my computer at home, so I don't see why it shouldn't work here. However, here I didn't download that 3.5 framework stuff so I figure that could be the problem.

    Edit: Nope, looks like the 3.5 framework thing crashed during setup. Fuck.

    Is there any way to just export the data to a PDF file or something?

    Mori, Dubh, I need your approval on two feats and an item.
    Devious Cunning
    Prerequisite: Dungeon Master, Devious Master class feature
    Benefit: When You slide an enemy with your Devious Master,
    you can also slide an ally that was adjacent to that ally into the
    space the enemy vacated.

    ...and
    Restful Lair
    Prerequisite: Dungeon Master
    Benefit: Allies that take an extended rest within the area
    of your Lair gain temporary hp equal to your Intelligence modifier.
    These temporary hp last until your allies next extended rest.

    Also...
    Ornament of Appointment Level 5+
    Arcane runes cover each of this dull gray, polyhedral crystal's twelve sides.
    Lvl 5 +1 1,000gp
    Lvl 10 +2 5,000gp
    Lvl 15 +3 25,000gp, etc.
    Implement (Ornament)
    Enhancement: Attack rolls and damage rolls
    Critical: +1d6 damage per plus
    Property: When you use the Establish Lair power, you may
    add up to three squares of furniture, such as tables and chairs, to the
    affected area.

    I likes 'em! I thought Restful Lair might be a bit overpowered, but since you'll typically only have a +3 or +4 int bonus, it's all good.

    Want to do a reverse D&D campaign.

    Every player rolls a character with a monster race. Their first adventure is to defend an old dungeon, and eventually they'll get their own dungeon as their base of operations.

    Men in dark robes pay them to kill certain adventuring parties, or terrorize a town or two.

    The best part? The PCs are are gonna be the 'good guys.' Those men in dark robes? Agents of Bahamut. The towns? Controlled by bandits and war parties of a tyrannical leader. Adventuring parties- bastards who slaughtered a bunch of innocent cave dwellers.


    I am going to steal this idea from you because it's so beautiful.

    Would you prefer it if I switched it to one of the secondary stats? I.E. Constitution or Charisma.

    Also, I would play that campaign, Dubh.

    Nah, Int is fine. Like I said, +3 or +4 extra hp isn't bad.

    Psst, Dubh. It's 1 level higher than what I had but I can take the Flagon of Ale Procurement, right

    I think I'm going to create a character named Joe Itemhaver for the sole purpose of getting those nifty little item cards when you guys find magic items and such.

    Man, writing adventures is time-consuming, I tell you what.

    I think this'll be fun, though. Hopefully I've included just enough encounters to last one session, though if we end up going on to a second one I could easily add more so we don't finish absurdly early next time.

    I don't know what you're typing these up in, but they are hell to import into the program I'm doing the page layout in, as it reads them all as one paragraph with line breaks at the end of the lines instead of actual carriage returns. Can you just type them up in a word processor or something?
