O dos zumbis tinha há mais tempo, cara, porque eu deixei a página aberta aqui no Opera desde ontem. Pra você ver que é mais útil checar antes de lamentar!

Falando em links e zumbis

- (Zombies) They're soulless animated corpses

- To this end, in the Monster Manual, three exotic zombies appear. The first is the chillborn zombie, the coldness of the grave given just enough volition to be bent on murder. The corruption zombie is a paragon of rot with a great throwing arm. The final new zombie is the gravehound zombie.

- A chillborn is cold, but it's not merely an icy zombie. Whatever accursed rites or foul maledictions gave a semblance of life to the chillborn made it even tougher than normal, its body and mind hardened by the freezing hand of death. Life-sapping cold streams from the creature, and the more chillborn zombies in a group, the deeper the freeze. As might be expected, the remorseless fists of the chillborn deal some cold damage, but when a chillborn strikes you, you just might freeze in place, still able to fight back but unable to flee the biting aura the zombie exudes. All chillborn deal more damage to immobilized victims, and your inability to maneuver certainly benefits anyone relying on the chillborn to provide a defensive front line.

- One creature that requires such a line of defenders, although probably provided by allies other than the chillborn, is the corruption zombie. This creature is so tainted that its body constantly exudes putrid flesh. It tears off chunks of its own rotting body to hurl at its foes, but leaving itself unharmed due to the supernatural nature of its tissues. If one of its thrown motes of corruption strikes you, however, you're in trouble -- not only does the gobbet hurt, but the unclean flesh also weakens you. Your instincts might dictate charging the zombie to stop its ranged attacks. But the stink of death is so strong near the creature, so sickening, that it can overwhelm the fortitude of the hardiest warrior, slowing his movement and enfeebling his attacks. Even so, if you can stand the smell, pressing the corruption zombie into melee might be an effective way to put an end to the creature.

- This isn't true of a gravehound zombie. So named because it's usually created from the corpse of a sizeable dog, a gravehound zombie is a melee monster like many other zombies. It's much faster than normal zombies, and its bite makes up in damage what it lacks in accuracy. The real problem with gravehounds is that their bite causes continuing decomposition around the wound. That trouble can persist even after the gravehound is destroyed. When the gravehound goes down, it lashes out one final time. If it hits you, its jaws lock. Until you can use brute force to open the death grip, you have to drag the hound around and deal with the decay its teeth cause. Being hindered like that during a battle can be more than just a minor nuisance.

Off: Eu vi a animação abaixo, mas não achei grande coisa:

Eu já vi zumbis que arrancam pedaços do corpo e jogam em você em algum lugar... um jogo de PC... Blood?

[CF]

Não. Quake.

Arc the Lad. Os zumbis arremessavam a própria cabeça (e depois tinham que ir buscá-la, era engraçado).

[Letthull]

Fome Animal???

[ShinRyuu]

Que... trailer... tosco...

[Wykthor]

Acho trash esses zumbis atiradores de carne. Ah, de um tópico da ENworld ( http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=210272), o nome da 2a aventura passou de Labyrinth of Lost Souls para Thunderspire Labyrinth

Que coisa mais tosca. Ainda se fosse mais parecido com as mumias do Age of Mythology que jogavam insetos e pragas para matar o inimigo...

[Lune]

WTF??

[Youkai X]

Uma das imagens mais bizonhas e trash de Complete Scoundrel. Com a Ember tentando dar uma de Ladina e crendo que está abafando com suas roupas de couro barato, o bardo palhaço de saqueira de ouro e o meio-orc com o pijama-roupão roubado de algum nobre por aí e muito gel no cabelo.

[Lune]

Ah, ufa, é do Complete Scoundrel. Eu encontrei ela dando um google por D&D 4e... por um minuto eu temi pelo pior

Novidades:

1) Link da mostra de miniaturas da série Desert of Desolation (nome dado originalmente a umasequência de aventuras célebre no AD&D1E):

http://wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/mg/dod

O que importou para mim é que neste link (http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=210468), um usuário da ENworld que costuma apanhar notícias da WotC disse o seguinte sobre essa lista de miniaturas:

We have been told that all but one monster from Desert of Desolation will be in the 4E Monster Manual I. Now that we have the set list and pictures, which one do you think isn't in the MM I.


2) Neste link (http://www.gleemax.com/Comms/Pages/Comm ... logid=2132 ), David Noonam fala um pouco de artefatos:

A significant breakthrough with artifacts—the new direction looks promising, and the two I’ve written so far (Eye of Vecna and Axe of the Dwarvish Lords) are things I’d put into my campaign in a heartbeat. The only significant downside? Each individual artifact takes up some real estate—more than we planned. But they’re frickin’ artifacts, man! So we’ll see. My next step is to wave them under the noses of some colleagues and see if we can’t get another page or two for the artifacts section. And it’s also a good time for me to ask the “Is Dave crazy?” question of my colleagues, because artifacts have become more than just really good magic items with backstories.

3) Neste outro link (http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dn ... entic=true) citam:

* There's mention of the social encounter system.
* There are narrative magic descriptors, which may or may not relate to mechanics in some way - various references to "chaotic" magaic, and the phrase "the magic was a chaotic effect that combined various composite forces".
* Reference to strange qualities/effects which the PCs are bestowed with (gift/curses), but "as of yet, that sort of material isn’t in the 4E core books"; although "materials from books like Heroes of Horror, Unearthed Arcana, DMG2, and PH2 will doubtlessly appear to some extent in the core books".
* Combat included a surprise round.
* There are mechanics for a character's condition after he wakes up, but the DM chose not to use them.
* A monster type identified with a skill check.

Será uma possibilidade de montar uma magia na hora vindo por aí?
