What book has the curse of the scarlot water? That until a desert city in the wastelands blooms, the water will remain rusty???

pblackcrow

What do you think of this primus? The Queen's Court of Ivory and Shadows seeks to end the corruption and the cruelty of the nobility, corruption of SOME of the churches, take on the monster races, as well as the gangs of outlaws who have been plaguing the people for the last 9 years (because the for...

The world I'm in currently in is at a "pseudo Victorian era", as far as stem tech and clockwork stuff goes, but not too much else. Education is very restrictive in some parts of the world, not too much in others. Guilds are mostly in charge of education. Magic is mostly hidden from the gen...

15 ... I used to live with you, Shannon. I think it would be interesting to visit the museum. Though, I would NOT WANT to find a huge dragon's skull in the basement again. I didn't realise it was a paper mache prop for a LARP set you were working. So, the same reaction when I found that. Only, much...

I will flesh this out later.

The Zindraron Islands:

There are 51 Islands in this island chain. The 2 largest are the Co-Kings' domains, followed in size by the 7 Duchies, 10 large outer most Marches, 6 Earldoms, 5 Counties, 11 baronies, and 15 knightdoms.

pblackcrow

Nice!

pblackcrow

Are we talking about a handful of islands? Dozens? Hundreds? Thousands? Are they each independent city-states, or some sort of unified kingdom? There are however many we wish to make. Some are tribal lands and clan lands, some are independent city-states. Some are a chain of islands...these will of...

pblackcrow

Where to begin? I guess, let's start with name suggestions, for both the islands, cities, towns, and villages on the islands. Then figure out who or what rules it/them, how they are ran, work out the people of it, history, a few trade deals, also the philosophies of the people, and a few of the poli...

How would you guys all like to do a group project on here for Palladium Fantasy? An alternative world setting.

One without a major continent but instead a multitude of islands and floating islands (as in islands that fly/float on or around ley lines.)?

pblackcrow

What would be the ideal place if you could create it in PF? Go into details.

pblackcrow

I thought I would be funny and name them 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, Ahhaha, and thunderclap. What did you expect from a count who is under a Duke called Oscar, who is under King Erny and Prince Burt? No, I am not kidding. As you might have guessed, these are "puppet lords" for the real power. And I fo...

Thank you.

Even though, for an enemy to enter through the main gateway is insanity, especially for one of my castles...(murder holes for the gate keepers up top to drop dwarven 300 proof moonshine, followed by a torch, not to mention the movable stone dragon heads spouts on the gatehouse, and the machicolation...

We have been using the psy tech for a bit.

Sorry for my absence, I have been dealing with a lot.

For the record: I was not involved in the plot to equip the population with a list of unhealthy compounds, showed them how to make the "magic bullet", etc...I just gave them the solar tower steam power, the light bulb, a few Tesla inventions, zeppelin, etc to King William IV before he beca...

The leaders of our group lost the map of the way back. They were on their way back and took the wrong road, then took several more wrong turns. It was getting dark out, and my group was tired as heck from riding close to all day yet again and only stopping 5 times, 4 was to very briefly to relieve o...

This is actually the first time I have heard him mention it. And we usually work together on games.

But this maybe for the auction that's getting ready to happen in the next game.

pblackcrow

What about a cain, amulet/locket/brooch, pocketwatch, handkerchief, cuff links, and collar button?
Or a writing desk, ladies fan, tulip bulb, rapier, and a copy of the kama sutra?

pblackcrow

Nekira Sudacne, in case you failed to notice...Shawn (ShadowHawk) tends to go by the rule of cool. And gives leniency to his players when we come up with a halfway interesting way of working around but still stay "within" the rules.

pblackcrow

Bit of a question. Should someone who doesn't believe in either magic or psionics, never "seen" it before, (so they have never truly developed any type of "mental guard" against it) get a minus on saves until they see physically see and/or to their knowledge experience it and uh ...

pblackcrow

If you wish, Shawn. But, readers, try to keep in mind that we used a bit of 1st ed, along with common sense skills for nobles from Maddog's PDF of skills. And honestly, this character fits the desired mesh of The Shield Hero archetype and that of D'Eon from Le Chevalier D'Eon much better than we cou...

Yes, I did, and that is exactly why I started this post.

Occupation isn't the only thing missing. Where is the background, personality, goals, desires, likes and dislikes, relationship. In other words where is the character? The only think I know about him is his name. That he is an Elf from Wisdom. That he has is Anarchist alignment with unprincipled te...

So far, we have established that out of all the games Rifts, Chaos Earth, PF, HU, NB, N&Ss, BtS, ETC...NONE OF THEM GIVE EXACTLY CLEAR AND THE SAME DETALES. So, please try not to take it personally.

I am enjoying this conversation immensely.

pblackcrow

I would like to point out that magic in Rifts works differently than magic in Palladium Fantasy. Thus while this might work therefore in Rifts It won't work in PF or HU or BTS If you doubt me, go read the rules about drawing PPE from people. They are similar , but not the same. Feel free to show yo...

pblackcrow

If you have a way to kill all the animals *simultaneously* Given the long casting times of rituals, why would the deaths have to be simultaneous? Why not space them out killing one rat per minute over an hour to get 60 PPE? Where does it specifically state that you can not use a spells to kill a sa...

pblackcrow

Where does it specifically state that you can not use a spells to kill a sacrifice? That would be "combat" It is an "attack" and that is pretty much the definition of combat and combat is pretty clearly explicitly forbidden. And stabbing something with a sword/dagger isn't? Comb...

pblackcrow

Where does it specifically state that you can not use a spells to kill a sacrifice?

pblackcrow

for the most part, sacrifice needs to be a pretty personal thing. you could maybe summon a ton of rodents and sacrifice them, but you wouldn't be looking at a situation where you could just get them all to step into a trap, press the button, and get your PPE. you could presumably sacrifice them one...

Summon rodents for animal sacrifice. Thoughts, ideas, suggestions, comments, etc?

I encourage all GM's to take full advantage of this time. With both mages and healers especially. For the mage: go on an astral journey, learn a new spell, recharge things, make packs, go to a place of power that they might know of, etc. For the healer, let him/her learn reiki, Quantum touch, EFT, c...

Interesting. I've never used bugbears; they just didn't appeal much to me. How do you use them in your games? In my world they are PCs and come in a wide variety. They consider elves, gnomes, halflings, and occasionally a dwarf and RARELY a human with great intelligence friend And are enemies of go...

pblackcrow

To the Bugbears in my game: I'm made them less cruel and mischievous, and more elusive and mysterious. Taken their 3 mental attributes and increase them by 1d6, add a wizard and warlock (after all they respect the 4 elements plus they have an already large amount of PPE to tap into so in makes sense...

Firstly, are there any pre existing rules that says "you can't do this"? If not, I would like to know how to permanently summon and bind a phantom footman to an object. What items would you require the Alchemist to need me to retrieve for the spell? I am researching it at the Tri-something...

The books are full of examples of spell casting nobles.

pblackcrow

As presented, the Noble class seems to be a diplomat and political player with enough skill options to be versatile. It might be interesting to group O.C.C.'s according to class for the more feudal societies in Palladium, but I don't think that a major change is needed to the Noble O.C.C. or its ex...

I like your ideas. However I had thought of something different, and while yes, there will definitely be some islands which are over populated and certainly sea monsters will be encouraged. But in my kingdom, there will be trade, winged beasts of burden, and also magic spell, circles (instead of fae...

Nice, any idea of what races and cultures you are going to throw into this?, if you like I have a few ideas you might like. Well, I've always liked the idea of the bug bears having the IQ of that of the Disney's Gummi Bears (3d6+3), but instead of bouncing they changing into large bears. Also I rat...

Sounds interesting, I'd say go for it, if anything it would make for a nice fan based game world, how would you set it up?[/quote] I like the idea of having several large islands, like Australia instead of a continent. Although, I may do 2 where the islands have like a mile or 2 between them and wit...
