121. | DR121 | Dragon #121 | Oriental Adventures : The subdual rules indicate that it
is preferable for shukenja to subdue
their opponents rather than slay
them. Does this mean that shukenja
get full experience for creatures
subdued? | | Shukenja are not supposed to be aggressive,
except toward evil spirits. They
receive half experience for other opponents
that they defeat by any means. |
122. | DR121 | Dragon #121 | Oriental Adventures : The rules say that sohei can only
use spells of up to fourth level, yet
table 62 shows 5th, 6th, and 7th
level spells usable by sohei. Which
is correct? | | Sohei can only use spells up to the 4th
level. Ignore the asterisks on 5th-7th level
spells; theyre errors. |
123. | DR121 | Dragon #121 | Oriental Adventures : The rules say that a wu jen must
have six hours of restful meditation
and study with his scrolls in order
to memorize a spell. Does this mean
that it takes six hours to memorize
each spell? | | No. The wu jen needs only six hours
total to memorize all of his spells, no matter
how many spells are learned. |
124. | DR121 | Dragon #121 | Oriental Adventures : Does the wu jens second ki power
give the character an extra spell, or
does it only apply to spells already
memorized | | The wu jen must have a spell of the
proper level memorized in order to use
the second ki power. |
125. | DR121 | Dragon #121 | Oriental Adventures : Can the caster of a fire wings spell
use verbal spells while the fire
wings is in effect? | | Yes, purely verbal spells may be cast when using fire wings, but only when the
caster has landed or is gliding. |
126. | DR121 | Dragon #121 | Oriental Adventures : Is the area of effect of a scry spell a
flat, circular area or a threedimensional
sphere? | | The scry spell covers a flat circular
radius, although common sense dictates
that the area will extend into three dimensions
(floor to ceiling in a room, for example).
This is a judgment call for the DM. |
127. | DR121 | Dragon #121 | Oriental Adventures : How are the various grenades
used? | | Use the grenade-like missiles charts
from the DMG. Dust and pepper grenades
affect only one target and require a direct
hit. Flash powder and poison smoke grenades
must be tossed into a fire to become
effective. The effects of each of the grenades
are described on page 50 of Oriental
Adventures. |
128. | DR121 | Dragon #121 | Oriental Adventures : What are the encumbrance values
for Oriental equipment? | | Use the figures for the nearest western
equivalent. Rope or clothing, for example, weighs the same no matter where its
made. Grenades are about the size and
weight of a vial of holy water. |
129. | DR121 | Dragon #121 | Oriental Adventures : Several monsters are listed as
having standard intelligence. What
does this mean? | | Standard intelligence equates to average
intelligence (8-10). |
130. | DR121 | Dragon #121 | Oriental Adventures : Do kappa get a damage bonus as
well as a to hit bonus for high
strength? | | The kappas damage bonus is subsumed
in the damage range listed. They do get
the to hit bonus, just as the description
states. |
