Hm. Granted this is D&D Legacy forum so this may be blasphemous.... but have you looked much at M&M 2e? Specifically the Warriors and Warlocks source book? You could model whatever concept you wanted. There are some cool ways to simulate multiple attacks with descriptors and whatnot. Just a...

The only "reason" I can think of to not play it is it doesn't sound very fun or flavorful. At least to me. I can wrap my mind around the image of a warrior swinging a sword or a faerie casting spells or what-have-you. The totemist just lacks a coolness factor. With all those attacks I instantly...

ad·ja·cent/əˈjāsənt/ Adjective: Next to or adjoining something else: "adjacent rooms". (of angles) Having a common vertex and a common side. Yes, a rider is adjacent to the mount; even "more adjacent" (if that's a term, heh) than you normally are when in combat (generally five feet away...

Grouping in 10's is the answer. Grab a calculator and you'll be set.

I have to wonder why this person is even playing. It sounds like they are doing everything BUT playing the game. Who cares how important the character is to whatever the storyline might be? You are in control of the story, ultimately. His character dies off-screen, send him a message telling...

Reading the thread, it kind of sounds like the GM had this idea of "survivors being scared pants-less while scrambling to survive, being driven/chased from scenario to scenario" and the OP wanted to take charge of his own destiny rather than be cast about on the winds of chance. I mean, this...

I don't have an actual rule to point to, unfortunately. What we have always done is thus: Same race/body shape/size category it fits. Full-plate is the exception; you have to have that re sized. Generally we follow the same 1 day/per 1k gold (ala magic item creation) to see how long that...

I just use Word or something. Completely customizable.

Do you make the rolls in the open? Is there ever a problem (even unintentional) with the group meta-gaming a situation if they do see rolls occur? We do ours in the open to facilitate speed of play and to keep things as honest as possible. We do occasionally have to remind people "hey, you...

No worries, we all seem to talk past each other sometimes on forums. Nature of the beast. My basic thoughts on it are rules-based. For me, as a player and as a DM, I love having that predefined structure that says "If x, then y." Now that said, I'm open to all sorts of approaches, but I like...

I guess I thought it was clear. I was agreeing with Jester's methodology (speak, roll, interpret) and adding that, in my opinion, the rules should be the same regardless of who does the interacting.

No, read the entirety of the thread. Care to elaborate? I thought I explained how we did this thing he asked.

If an NPC successfully Bluffs a PC, I expect that character to play along with it, regardless if the player believes it or not; lest next time they try to Bluff someone and it succeeds I just have the guard say, "Mehhhh, I don't know about that...." and have him do whatever he was going to...

Someone throw some xp towards the Jester for me? Must spread. That's exactly how we do it too. We describe what/how we are doing it, then cast our die and interpret the results.

Our Pathfinder group is shifting around slightly with regards to the makeup of the PCs, and it seems like we'll have a mostly stealthy bent (two rogues, a sorcerer who can sneak, and a summoner). While reading through the discussion going on in General D on wizards and the knock spell (among...
