    Holy symbols have no special effect instrinsic to themselves, Krunch. A cleric needs one to use Turn Undead and to cast a vast majority of their spells, but that's it. There is no such thing as getting a "better" holy symbol and in the PNP game they don't take up any inventory space and don't even have a weight unless you get them made of special materials like silver or gold (which does nothing beyond cost more and make them look fancy.)

    There are a number of empty rooms with empty barrels in them on lvl2 of the temple. Maybe room for some critters of somekind. No bugbears or gnolls please. Anyone interested?

    This thread has been dead for a while, so it's time to breath some life into it...

    While wandering through Hommlet I stumbled across this little fella. Now if only I can find a way to make him do the 2d4 acid damage per age category that he should do, I can sleep a little less restfully in my bed tonight.

    Very cool! Though is that breath weapon doing a cloud instead of a line?

    Unfortunately, I've tried every casting AI for the line version of the breath weapon, and can't get it to cast at all, so yes, I've used a 0.3 degree cone (I think this can be made smaller if need be) with modified gust of wind particles, still it doesn't look too bad right?

    No, It looks damn good. A 0.3 degree cone should be close enough to a line for rules compliance, and I think the particle effect makes for great eye candy.

    Nope, it just looked like from the screen shot a large number of characters were getting hit with it, which is why I was asking. Sounds like a good work-around to me.

    Is that supposed to be a black dragon?

    It looks purple to me. Barney, anyone.

    It may be that there is a set minimum radius for cone area's of effect, I've asked Agetian to look again at Darmagon's line spell, but since it contains complicated trigonometry in the script (and doesn't cast) it may take a while to fix. I might try putting a negative number in the cone radius descripter, to see if I can shrink the minimum radius below the minimum.

    It was Cujo, not Atari that gave us the black dragon skin, he might be persuaded to alter the colour scheme, if given enough dog biscuits. ;)
