It has been a few years since I have posted. I am dusting off my homebrew to start a new campaign. I was wondering if anyone has seen any good write-ups or resources for using templates for background or social statuses?
for example; a Noble template vs. a peasant??
Any help would be appreciated.
Very nice work.
I can't comment on psionics because I am just not that familiar with them buI did read missive and I think that capatures sending very well.
On the High Ones I would remove the animal companion ability and also make them a +1 or +2 ECL race.
I am running my brand new group of players through Goodman games Idylli of the Rat King next weekend.
5 players all old time 2e players that have been away from the table for 10+ years, plus 1 player who is also a GM and is very seasoned on 3.X.
I have read through the module and it seems...
THanks for the responses. I think I like the 18K answer the best simply because not only does it grant unlimited missile weapons but also the quick draw feat.
I wanted to create a magic item for a primary recurring NPC in my campaign. He is the Captain Marshall of the main city in the campaign and he will be a recurring (ally) of the PCs.
His name is Rhect the Ax because of his trademark belt (Baldric) that allows him to magically summon throwing...
I am incorporating the Class Def Bonus from Unearther Arcana into my game. It does not specify in the brief description whether or not you lose def bonus if you lose dex (i.e. flatfooted). It would stand to reason but does anyone know for sure??
Given this criteria I would say stay with 3.5 over Pathfinder. I like what Pathfinder is doing and have incorporated many of these things into my E10 game. However I think the Power-race" has scaled much like 4e, it seems to be escalating.
For Example (and this could have an impact in E6)...
Achan,
I have to give you a hearty Thank you and Curse you for the link.
I was up until 1:30 in the morning rereading the entire original run of ElfQuest last night. Something I have not done in 20 years.
Man what a great story line.
Thanks for bringing back a child hood treasure.
I think Herzog hits the cruxt of the issue for me. "In Melee" for purposes of feint would mean the target is actively trying to parry or gain some sort of advantage over the attacker by "correcting" or addressing a perceived threat. At range I do not see this as a plausible scenario.
So while I...
Thanks for all the feed back and suggestions.
Here is the general write up I think I am going for. Any class that gets an animal companion or a familiar will use its tribe's animal. (There will be more than just wolf-riders.)
No sending because I am going to keep psionics to a minimum in my...
I don't allow the Leadership feat at all. Not that the feat as written is inherantly broken I have always felt that this is more of a story/roleplaying aspect of the game. Breaking it down to a feat was just way too limiting in my opinion.
I use a template system that grants bonuses based on...
