Topheph, out of curiosity, just what is a group theme? I don't have the DMG2 And I've never heard of it before... Also, just a heads up, I'm currently doing a pre-traineeship course, so I won't be able to contribute as much as I have been... and with the time differences I won't be in the chat as much either.

group themes are... basically expanded monster templates designed to be used across multiple creatures. I'm about to upload my idea for the Word Adepts... there. lordsofcreation.wikia.com/wiki/Nixis#Tem.... Basically, they're designed to be themes for monsters. So, for instance, if your big bad is going to be demigoron, you can reflavor your monsters with a group theme for 'Demigoron Cultist' and modify them slightly, giving them one or two new abilities and appearances in order to tie together potentially disparate parts of the campaign into a cohesive whole. So, when those zombies have tentacles for arms, you know that a Demigoron cult is hiding out somewhere nearby, etc... The Word Adepts aren't exactly meant to be monsters, but more a group united in a shared cause and with a special marking of their shared purpose.

Kind of like how the Dark-spawn template was applied to both the Azorans and the Slaadi. The template was designed specifically to be applied to anything that was affected by the darkness in some physical way.

Xeadin, shut up. You are not an admin. It is not your responsibility to correct other players, nor do you have any right to be doing so. AnubisDread's expenditure is clear enough for me to records it properly. It it was not, I will say something, not you. Is that clear? Now please delete that post. Anubis, there is a small problem in your post . . . you don't have free molds in the Chaos. Aradeia created the plane, and I don't recall any action on your part to claim it. Nerdzul, can you clarify exactly what you are doing to the leylines for me?

Oh okay, not a problem. I just figured Chroma was close enough to it for it to count as his domain so to speak, but I can see how without the rules to back it up there's not really any basis for it ^_^; Editted... didn't really need the extra 2PP anyway

Tapping on their power (only fluffwise) and some of the new "veins" are linked to the places with many ley lines intersections.

Uh, Topheh, if the children come back every so often doesn't that mean they have to go through the miasma? Not that I am going to go after you on it (Ekluag, otoh  ). Anyways, is there a decided closing official closing/end time?
