Awesome! Thanks for the quick reply guys.

As a follow up question does the Palladium Fantasy RPG have a dedicated 'Perception' in the RAW?

GMDijarian

Can any one point out to me which page of the PFrpg explains how to roll for skill checks?

Thanks

GMDijarian

I think we're talking distinguishing qualities and genetically determined characteristics.

I get the sense that perhaps this isn't the forum I was looking for.

GMDijarian

I could yes. And I could completely re-write everything, but thats not my intent here. My intent is to play the setting. And language is part of the setting. Yes you're very correct, and it says the languages in the book. Norther, Souther, Eastern, Western. But my question though is something altoge...

GMDijarian

The other advantage that is brought up often is that a shield can, in some situations, be used as cover besides parrying. Since its you can't easily target things behind cover this is actually pretty useful. I could be wrong as I don't have my book in front of me but I don't believe there are any r...

I've done a bit further work on this project. Please someone let me know if they feel like this fits, or is way off course. These are cultural character traits for a new game I am starting using Palladium Fantasy as a setting. They are based per kingdom basically. Bizantium Tall, Proud, Call of the ...

GMDijarian

That certainly makes sense to me, but kind of what I'm wrestling with is that the whole of the east is clumped into one language, but if you look at the history of the Territories, they are not one people. In the south, they're mostly Eastern (Timiro), such the language makes sense, but most in the ...

Thanks for your reply Kiralon.

Hi again! This thread goes with the other one I posted http://palladiumbooks.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=151134&sid=d7a828f96b4ebdf288afbb9229742dbb <- there... Anyways Im starting a new game using a different system, but that is set in the Palladium World ( Because we all like the lore a...

GMDijarian

Long time no post... Im beginning a new game with a different system but that will be set in the Palladium Fantasy world, as we are finishing a long overdue campaign. This got me thinking about the different Mannish Cultures present in the game world, and the languages that they speak. So I decided ...

I love this forum. Lets me think of things, id never think of.

anyways.

i have a player creating a character and wants to spend bio-e for extra Mental Endurance, Physical Prowess, and Physical Beauty.

What bonuses does this give him?

GMDijarian

Thanks guys, though the true kudos for this should go to Mr. Bill Coffin. I just took his idea and ran with it. BTW, if anyone playtests this, let me know. I'd love to get some feedback on the rules. Im probablly about to start a game of this, ill let you know how it goes. It'll be a pbp game, so h...

Hey everyone Im back after a long stay away and was wondering the other day: Has anyone, playing a serious and honest character, ever made it to the peak end of 15th level? Ive run two year and a half campaigns weekly for hours at a time and it seems the characters max at just about 8th level by the...

Why hasnt there been anything done with this Land? Its obviously a great place to adventure. Thinking of Marshes just brings up the images of ancient catacombs and undead creatures. Three dukedoms, well youve got the infighting of the nobles there, but why no source book. Just seems strange to me.....

As far as I know this is talking about "the wall" "The Wall" is a magical black force field that surrounds the palladium earth. Noone on the palladium world really knows that it exists because its just so darn far out there. Noone knows whats on the other side, or if anything at ...

I know i sound dumb. But where does it say the length of reading a scroll? (amount of actions)

Just wondering how long a talisman takes to release the magic never seen any offical but I have alway played one action? Any know if their are offical rules? I would say one action.

Hey what ever happened to old Beelezub any way. I do believe he was defiled. He doesn't like to talk about it. Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the Slayer of Mountains (from Western Empire) a Defiler? If so, then there's a little bit of info for you. Now I could be wrong, but I think the defiler...

GMDijarian

Well why dont I resurrect it once more after being forgotten about....

I was reading about the legion of northmoor, and i got to thinking....

what happened to the defilers?

did they just move away?

GMDijarian

Well here I am again, with my goofy questions..... This time its about wards... Say there is an area effect, permanent, mystic energy drain (in this case paired with magic, for a magic mystic energy drain) in the center of a room. What would happen if a Golem or other magical statue (like a guadian/...

GMDijarian

If I've said it once I'll say it a million times. Go with something cliche, because it's fun. A Dragon/or Monster, has kidnapped the princess and the hero/heroes must now go save her. This was the premise of the first game I ever ran 10 years ago. Mine was that a vampire lord who ruled ruthlessly ov...

GMDijarian

So recently a player of mine was captured by faeries and ate some pear food of theirs. This caused a Doppleganger to be made of himself.

Now my question...

If a Diabolist places a permanence ward on him. Would it make the Doppleganger permanent?

GMDijarian

So recently (after a fight agianst a mid level mind mage and high level raksasha) my player group asked, "What ever happened to the days of fighting goblins and orcs?" another then commented about how he liked big battles (like the ones in LOTR) where the characters are set up against a mu...

GMDijarian

Hmm that's a tough one. Using the combat rules of PFRPG I'd say no. However, the current combat rules used in BtS 2nd edition, Dead Reign, and Rifts Ultimate, give Hand to Hand Basic Power Punch, but no Power Kick. Expert, Martial Arts, Assassin, and Commando all get Power Punch/Power Kick. This te...

GMDijarian

So I know you can spend two actions in order to do a power punch and that it does double damage. I may be wrong but I believe there is also a power kick which also does double damage. Is there a power cleave? Can you use this ablity with a weapon? Do any of you have a house rule that applies to this...

GMDijarian

I'd really LOVE to help out. But have no way of traveling north and to the Open House, sorry.

So my group plays every Monday (sometimes whether everyone wants to or not). We have gotten plenty of adventuring done, but sometimes its a little difficult for everyone to get into character. Which can be annoying for me It seems that some nights our sessions turn out equal to THE RETURN OF THE KIN...

Well guys. I love PFRPG BUT I can never find anyone who wants to play. I live in a very small town and the only gamers I know only play a Pathfinder/3.5/3.0 mix.

GMDijarian

Rather than giving his new character experience, you might want to consider opening up his OCC and species selection to include more high-power species or classes that bring a lot of capabilities to the group (A paladin is a pretty good selection, actually). You still start the new character at lev...

GMDijarian

Thanks.

But i really am seeing how that detracts from the epic fun of the game. If only there were something in the middle.

But thank you very much.

GMDijarian

truly GRRRRRREEEEEAAAAT idea.

(see if anyone catches the joke in that)

GMDijarian

I totally agree with everything you are saying Lionheart. We love the game, plain and simple. We were just looking for something to add a smidge more detail, or "realism" to the sword system. Last night I was thinking that the book may have meant something else when they say good or very g...

GMDijarian

Thank You both for your views, we all agree with them. This is what we agreed upon tonight. When reading through the PFRPG some characters start with weapons of "good" quality, some with "very good" quality and some with "superior" quality. So we are thinking about doin...

GMDijarian

All there any rules anywhere in the main PFRPG that says how weapons will dull. Whats the point of getting a seldom/or never dulls weapon, or getting it indescructable? Where is this written?

GMDijarian

pretty cool idea. sorry i didnt see it earlier.

GMDijarian

So my player (the one who died as a warlock) is now a 1st level Paladin of Rurga. We're wondering a few things. Question 1. In the description for the DDB it says it inflicts FULL damage. What exactly does that mean? We debated last gaming session. Does full damage mean that with a strike that hits ...

GMDijarian

I like to known that too? Are ther Wards traps? A lot of wards can be used to protect certain items and can be used as traps. I use wards in my game most of the time for this (characters must obtain chalice, but the pedastal it sits on has a burning pain ward, and anyone who touches the pedastal or...

So that's a big unequal set of opinions. The group right now consists of a 4th Level Scholar, 4th Level Merc, 4th Level Wizard, Previously 3rd level Warlock, and 1st Paladin.

GMDijarian

So if anyone has read some of my other posts, you know one of my players' characters recently died (an earth warlock) He is very interested in continuing play and is interested in a Paladin of Rurga ( a class I know he would kick major butt at playing). The major question is, how do you guys handle ...

GMDijarian

1. I had a Warlock character who very much enjoyed dropping walls on foes, do I as GM get a save to this. Does anyone play it that way. 2. Werewolves are only hurt by silver and magic. Does a wall being dropped on them count as magic? Or is a physical attack? What about a normal weapon that has bee...
