Levitation only works in up and down over a fixed point on ground, water or vessel below the victim. The person isn't on a table top and has no control. Unless they are using another outside force (grabbing a robe or cliff wall, wings, telekinesis etc...). They are just suspended in air without cont...

Not a lot of time in my evenings for sitting down having a traditional table top session. Looking for PBP or some slower format hosting Palladium Fantasy.

Lukterran

One thing that is broken in my opinion is how effective the single attribute of P.P. is on combat. I think it effects too many combat bonuses. I'd rather see something like one attribute effect only a single combat stat. Something like PS give Strike bonus, PP give Parry and SPD give Dodge bonus for...

The person does not know the language he is speaking. He is just speaking in his own language. The listener hears the speakers words in the listeners native language. The magic does the translation. That means if the speaker (for example: lets say is speaking in Human Western. Could be heard in Dwar...

I would listen to Vek - "He knows his MFing Paired Weapons"

I'm completely fine with PC to PC murders. But I would have just had her character get a little of the same treatment she was dishing out. Would have had allowed another PC or had an NPC murder her character. Easy enough to deal with.

One has to go through the liver and be absorbed which takes longer. The other is a direct into the blood stream without filter.

Looking for some unique and new NPC monsters that can give my players a challenge for a very high level campaign. All level 11+. So if anyone has any good ideas or old creations in their folders collecting dust could use some inspiration. Not just vanilla big monsters with lots of SDC and high damag...

PF2p181 mentions under 2nd paragraph of "Ley Lines, Nexus Points, & PPE": Men of magic can syphon a fragment of the energy from these lines, especially during certain periods and positions of the moon and stars. The additional magic energy is often only accessibly directly at a ley li...

Personally this is how I would rule: There is no real line of sight restriction. Levitation would only need line of sight in order to have a valid target for the spell. You could know where the object is at prior to casting the spell (like a chair you setting in but not necessarily staring at it) an...

So I'm GMing a epic level campaign that the final portion of it deals with time travel with a very complex plot line and that has very specific set of tasks that must be completed. Thus if they fail, not only is their group doomed, but they pretty much brought about the destruction of the whole univ...

I was looking for something else in the Rifters and stumbled across this quote in the Q&A section: "Can a magically created duplicate of a character(i.e., Doppelganger, or ID Self) control objects that can only be controlled by the original? No, they cannot act as the original to control th...

I just want something solid that everyone is falling the same rules on in regard to skills and all the other stuff.

Lukterran

Geez, 5 attacks per round and 89 damage capacity at level 1, that guy is a tank. I love the character concept. If that character isn’t a worshipper of the Juggernaut, I’ll buy a hat and eat it! I just did him up in 30 minutes. But yes that was the first thing I thought of after I posted it. I shoul...

In regard to all the classes in the Yin-Sloth jungle books. Has Palladium Books every converted them over into 2nd edition and if so where can I find it?

Lukterran

I wouldn't call them invincible. Seems like a good number of earth spells could really do some damage to subterranean people. Earthquake, River of Lava and Chasm all could wreck some havoc. As far as food supplies there aren't many options but some of those are: - Surface level farms (they could pot...

Lukterran

I little constructive criticism: With the level of detail you are inputting into the maps you should take a little artist license and incorporate some higher level of detail into the coastline of the map. Everything is way too smooth. If you look at a real map the coastline may have a smooth section...

I don't know what an Old One Chosen is, but I agree a Disciple of the Old Ones (Minotaur Witch) or a Minotaur Chaos Priest would fit the bill. World Book #2

Kind of like with twins or a real clone. They are unique individual person so only the single person would be bonded with the rune weapon. Just because they are genetically the same doesn't matter. The bonding is a more spiritual metaphysical thing. Death normally severs the link. So a doppelganger...

Well I don't know if you purchased the Game Master Kit. But there is like a dozen pre-generated characters in there, although most at or around 4th level.

The elf version of the 40 year old dude that still lives at home with his mom in the basement. I suppose.

Lukterran

I thought the rules seemed pretty clear use any race or creature currently within Palladium canon as a base and you can boost the attributes of the creature by a few D6. But if you want to based if off say a Jotan stats etc... and make it look like a Teletubby that seems within the stated intent. It...

OMG some much wrong here in this thread is the quote from 1st edition: "Humans, Wolfen, Goblins, Hob-goblins and Orcs all age at about the same rate . Ogres, Trolls and Troglodytes age at about the same rate as humans, but have a longer life span (average 90 years). Dwarves, Kobolds and Gnomes...

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 ten...

Lukterran

Thanks for the quick replies and help. Sad there isn't more information.

Lukterran

I know Hotrod and some others have post maps here before in the past. I'm looking for a map of the Land of the South Winds to use in my adventure. Anyone got anything or know a link?

Lukterran

I have always read it as, per level of experience, you can create one 6*6*6 section of wall. How you arrange those sections is up to you, but they have to be contiguous. I use this for all wall spells. This does not give you a certain amount of cubic feet, but sections to be arranged. If you're in ...

Lukterran

it just no longer is something that the players can cast ten or twenty times a day. Which was rather the entire point of going to PPE. I don't know if I agree with the point of going to a PPE system was to keep people from casting 20 spells a day. If it was it completely failed and allowed just tha...

Lukterran

I don't know how you're going to cast that spell? Its conversion to the PPE system from 1st edition greatly destroyed its playability. Only a dragon, god or some other creature with an insanely high PPE pool can cast it at the books stated cost of 600 PPE. Seriously wizard only gets 3D4x10+20 PPE at...

They killed the druid class in 2nd edition. It was kind of unique in 1st edition which is now just a were-shaman. But druids are completely useless and about the worst class in the game. I personally would like to see a revamp of the class to make it more worth while in a group. Nobody wants to play...

Bugbears are terribly power and mean little guys. I can't understate just how dangerous they are. They could take down a force 10 times their number. The travel in groups (and some of those groups are ridiculously large) and having a creature that can teleport and turn invisible at will is incredibl...

Lukterran

I personally just make up the stats on the fly. It is much faster and easier. Give them some average HP and a few bonuses and a weapon and armor and you are done. Another simple trick is just to go to any adventure section of any of the books or area where someone is already been stated out and use ...

Lukterran

For anything less than a god. It would not work. As stated before already a rule against mixed species. However, their is the Demigod which is also in the rules. So yes gods (including the Dragon Gods) they could have Demigod offspring and the rules for them are in Rifts Pantheons book pg 17 for the...

I guessing this is more evolved than just the player characters using the level 14 "Close Rift" spell. Hopeful the ancient grimoire is either somehow linked to the comet and/or prophetic in predicting its coming along with the rifts. The World: - What is left and what are the primary sourc...

Well, I agree as well but it's the range of touch that makes me wonder. Technically, you're not touching anything in the bag. But, it's essentially magic so what the hell. -Vek "Never trust a mind mage." Seriously getting way too technical. You need to keep it simple. The bag would be con...

Class Either Wizard or Summoner: Wizard will possibly top out higher than a Summoner but Summoners can potential get more starting P.P.E. based 180 vs. 140.

Markets anywhere there is trading and exchange of goods and money going on. There will be money on people to steal. I also like the church suggestion.

The sea of scarlet waters would have a huge trade operation all up and down the coast. Probably taking in rare goods (spices etc..), lumber, slaves from Old Kingdom, Yin-sloth jungles and Baalgor and sending needed items there to the smaller wilderness outposts. Not to mention city-to-city trading a...

I personally would like to see the non-magic and non-psionic classes get some love. Perhaps a 3rd Edition. Currently if your character does not have magic or psionic you substandard. Since most magic users can multi-role with the generalization of hand to hand combat. A 4th level human Wizard and 4t...

Quality of the wine is by taste, not proof. However, the real question is a little more than complex than just red vs white wine.

Well, I'm pretty sure I specified wizard spells so I'm ignoring any Warlock only spells. What I was thinking of was Energy Field.

Well, Fleet Feet is the most ridiculous buffing spell in the books. It's so bad we outlawed it. There was a ranger who had a medallion that could cast Fleet Feet and he was impossible. I mean doubling attacks? That's a huge enough bonus! But to double the PP, that's guaranteeing bonuses to strike, ...

Well, I do love me some Limited Invulnerability, no joke. But I went with the smaller PPE cost and the ability to cover more people. It also can work as a make-shift wall. I wonder what the coefficient of friction is for the Energy Field. Could someone climb up it? -Vek "Energy Jungle Gym.&quo...
