I have a brand new character, we have only played once, but my totem item is central to his being. Oddvar is a simpletonmonk with a very low intelligence. He depends heavily on the teachings of the masters to navigate the complex issues he encounters in everyday life. So I keep a small pocket...

You would think that if this were true, cleaning your gun would be bad. I am pretty sure the brushes used to clean guns are made of brass or copper, fairly soft metals, which would not harm the barrel during cleaning. I don't think a regular cleaning alters the barrel thread characteristics...

ENWORLD CAUSES LAYOFFS Seeing as how the WOTC product line up is no longer featured on the right side of the news page, it seems obvious that this has affected sales and is the cause of the layoffs.

If you still have it I will take it email me @ dire_groundhog@occultmail.com I would love to stay there!

Thank you all for your insight. The quote from PHB was unnecessary, I am well aware of what is in the book. My memory seems to be failing me in that I thought I recalled a sage advice or something on the topic, but when you read so many varying opinions, interpretations, and comments I guess...

I could have sworn that I saw a rules clarification somewhere that stated a character with Combat Reflexes could indeed make multiple AoOs on a creature who drew them for different reasons. For instance: The silly wizard, standing next to the fighter with Combat reflexes, decides to move 2...

I like it just fine. I won't miss the WOTC upcoming product line up at all. Isn't that what their web page is for? If someone is interested in a product, they will know when it is coming out without needing to be reminded daily on the main news page. I like the extra text space opened up by...

Oh crap, you mean someone beat me to it?

Which one was Siegfried, the wizard or the druid? Why didn't the druid just turn down the lights, disappear in the darkness with his vight tiger, and call it MAGIK!! An image of the bizarre love triangle the druid carved in stone, years after the story unfolded. Was this a special arctic...

Do tiny and smaller creatures, which do not threaten spaces and need to step into another creatures square to attack, draw an AoO if they five foot step into the characters square? On one hand, the five foot step never causes an AoO On the other hand, they are entering an occupied square...

I'll be there... shadow or no shadow when I poke my head out of the hole I am going to Gen Con. see you there, I will be the furry rodent.

Try the Codex of Greyhawk at: /http://www.greyhawk-codex.com/ They have some maps which can be handy.

Been thinking of this one, have not had a chance to use it yet. The PCs have been battling a vampire nobleman/wizard who has until recently been in a stake induced stasis for a couple hundred years. As they try to track him down across miles of countryside and into strange and new countries...

I really like the drinking rules. Only one thing jumped out at me as being in need of comment, the rule for passing out if you drink more than your CON in one go. Passing out from slamming a flask of dwarven spirits is funny, but I think it goes a bit too far. Instead of passing out, I...

Bushfire, Thanks for the excellent mead info link! Also good to know that I can make something and drink it in a matter of weeks rather than years. The person I referred to is also a homebrewer. I have dabbled in homebrewing, and have been moving my 7 gallon carboys around for years just...
