The term "Dyvalians" has appeared in the book which I think is far more appropriate to label its residents, which can include humans. I think the religion was called Dyvag, too. The chronicles also indicate that "Dyval", the realm's name, was that of the Supreme Lord prior to Sa...

It's not a houserule, if he's giving them spellbooks or scrolls. RUE doesn't include spellbooks by default, but they do appear in Mysteries of Magic for PFRPG. How and where to get scrolls isn't discussed either, but a default skill percentage for learning a spell off of one is on page 191. It's ac...

No. Mystically Bestowed is more in the nature of a gift or loan. The person being Mystically Bestowed doesn't have to do anything to get it, wheres Witch's have to do something fairly horrible to get power. The method is similar but the details are different. Like how both Experiments and Mutants ca...

Dweomer Mages from the article by James Calder have a spell to make any other spell permanent.
There written up in Rifter 17 Pg 56. A very nice caster class.

Tadrith

He said flawless, that means a gem that has no inclusions so it is solid all the way thru with no blemishes. A facet is a flat surface on the well surface, of the gem. The refracted lights in side are from the surface cuts. There's a neat Wikipedia article on it.

Ok then, what it says is most normal people can comfortably hold their breath underwater for about 60 secs with trained people (I.E. Navy Seals or Olympic Divers) can go up to 7 min. Dmg is not too clear but it dose mention 5d6 dmg when getting caught in a flash flood so I would say 2/3d6 in calm wa...

Find out why the player want that class in particular I think it's safe to assume the player wants to be the most munchkin munchkin in munchkin land. Now that's not fair. I admit it sounds likely based on the limited info we got but he could have a particular idea for a character and that was the o...

Tadrith

Not sure I would allow it myself even if you could find a good hand-wave. IMO while it may be technically possible it gos against the feel of the Immortalist class it self. Find out why the player want that class in particular, if it's because of the Chi magic then point them at one of the other mag...

or a crystal ball if it's clear and flawless

Depending on the setting you may have priced that too high. You have to remember the price of gemstones in modern times is much much higher then the price of a equivalent gem in a fantasy setting or a technologically advanced setting, Diamonds especially. Fantasy because there seem to be so much mor...

Dead Reign Source book 2:Dark places pg 57 has some notes on drowning, basically just some real world stats on how long you can hold your breath as well rules for resuscitation.

As I understand it I can't post them on the forum right?

Running Dead Reign, the players were on top of a church when they noticed movement in the bell tower. They over to look and found a crazy hermit living there in his fort made entirely of salvaged Bibles (he believed the Word of God made him invisible to Zombies) with all his salvaged stuff including...

As in a multi OCC or just taking the powers from all 3 OCC's and making one OCC with them all?

Here are the Sheets I use. First is the only Sheet I did not make my self. I have no idea where I got this and I've never been able to find it again but its a very well made fill-able megaversial character sheet. I've made modifications to it but the basic sheet is the same. To give credit where cre...

I generally award the PCs level*100 in XP at the end of each session as a base award. If only a few players show up when others don't everyone who's there gets either a little XP or some sort of bonus in game, all other XP awards are based on what happens in the game, if the PC dosn't do anything th...

So I have a level 7 Soldier who became a Half-living due to a near death experience. The way the description for losing skill is in a percentage is making me think that he should lose that percentage from all elective and secondary skills rather than lose a huge chunk of his actual skills. Thoughts?...

All good. I was just curious as too what you meant.

In Dead Reign the Zombies don't feel pain so that aspect of the fence wouldn't work. It doesn't mention electricity anywhere in the book that I remember but a case could be made that it would cause the Zombies muscles to lock up trapping it on the fence, at least as long as the current was going.

Dead Reign with the MDC games = one short adventure with Heroes unlimited = marvel zombies is a great example of it with BSN as well as the other modern games settings would do great It wouldn't be very short. Zombies in Mdc worlds become Mdc. Says on pg 55 of the DR book that most Mdc weapons do n...

I house rule all armor in general in to 3 kinds. First of all the number on the dice is what determines whether you hit the armor or not, bonuses are counted as normal when figuring dodge and parry and all that. Armor on natural or non magical creatures, (I.E Zombies, Lizard-men, Dino's, stuff like ...

I had a player that relly liked to abuse TK and Super TK so I bought this rifter just for that article.

Rifter 44 has a nice article on the Aura which was what I've always taken to be what the Zombies see. In the article it talks about how the size of your aura is no more about a 1/2 inch from your skin increasing by that much every level. what your wearing counts as you for purposes of where your au...

Yes, but I wanna say they will go dormant at low levels of PPE as well. I don't have the book in front of me but I seem to remember that.

Tadrith

The way I'm running it in my game is that it is a magically created virus. The zed virus is what makes you a zombie but it can't survive in the human body for more that an hour or so before it's killed by the immune system. You will turn if a zombie bites you and you die but only if you die within t...

Then what you need to do (depending on your Gm of coarse) is come up with a line of bulls**t to give yourself a progression to expand your zombie ability's, perhaps with a permanent MA loss to represent moving away from your human side. It all depends on whether your Gm is open to creative enhanceme...

As I understand it the damage from a bullet is separated in to two parts. The Physical damage the pullet dose as it hits you and penetrates and the greater Hydrostatic Shock damage that the bullet causes in your soft tissue. Imo the Zed would take less dmg from a head shot than a human even if there...

Meditation increases the rate at which you regenerate PPE it dose not add PPE in and of itself so I don't see how you could use that to regenerate. Only the PPE that is lost when the Zombies try to eat you is lost permanently. The 1d4+1 that you retain is kept and regenerates like normal when used, ...

Look in DR Sourcebook 2: Dark Places pg 60 deals with "Live Bait" and what ind of people and groups use it.

Take a look at Project Zomboid. It is a sandbox zombie survival game wit an amazing number of options that you can do vi context menus. for example the game starts with you and your wife in a house with zeds outside because your wife has a broken leg. Your options (at least the ones I've found) are ...

OK so we started in Heros unlimited, I was a flying super with Str.

I had a quick question. In the Article it states that Vampires are negative Chi beings and then gos on to state that they can use Mind Block to guard against Chi Attacks. My question is when did Mind Block the Psychic power protect against Chi atks? Is this something that is specific to vampires or ...

I was thinking high level mystic who learns about the Athanatos Magii and somehow convinces them to teach him their style of magic. As of right now this is all theoretical for an Npc I'm building and while I know I could just Gm it and say they could I'm looking for opinions on how it would work.

And Pegasus in Space as well as the Rowan series which is the same world hundreds of years later. All by Anne Mccaffery.

I was wondering if other Rccs could take Athanatos paths as their OCC?
