    Taint and Bloodlines

    In this campaign world I'm brewing, there's two major factions - one abyssal and the other infernal - who've pretty much taken their Blood War onto this world and the PCs are the rabble that is the minority whose caught in the middle. Post apocalyptic, if you will. Some may be rebels trying to...

    Sanity and Psionics

    Good observation. I suppose that since I'm actually trying to encourage psionics into the campaign, the former would likely be the route to go.

    What happened to DOorDice.com?

    That's anyone guess, I suppose. I chalked it up to a decreasing lack of interest / enthusiasm or perhaps some ailment that would keep someone in the hospital and whomever was left behind to run the shop was simply not responsible enough. *shrug* I'm sure we've all had our experiences with...

    Taint and Bloodlines

    In Unearthed Arcana, I've been looking at several different variants and two of them happen to be Taint & Bloodlines. Hypothetically, if a PC is allowed to take a bloodline of something like a devil or a demon, how would you have Taint work within it? Mechanics wise, one would think that the...

    Sanity and Psionics

    Maybe I glossed it over too quickly in Unearthed Arcana ... I did get a good grasp how to do sanity checks for spell casting and which domains / schools would assess certain amounts ... but I don't recall seeing how / if psionics would affect one's sanity score. Any ideas or suggestions?

    What happened to DOorDice.com?

    I ordered with them on 05/28/2006 for an order of 9 different products totalling $138.59, but the lure of the site was because of the reduced prices and they appeared to have some products in stock when they're usually not available in most other places, so I gave it a shot. I experienced the...

    Feat Buys & XP

    These days, there seems to be a bunch of feats numbering up into the thousand(s) range and there are so many choices to choose from. I've been considering the opportunity to present additional feats to be learned in addition to the standard level raises and character class bonuses, but only to...

    Character sheets -- open or closed?

    This I can relate to. In an Eberron campaign that I am participating in, my character is essentially a rogue. Most of my stats and capabilities, I'm pretty much in the open. However, what I have not demonstrated until at least two sessions ago that my character possessed a dragonmark. Only...

    Multiclass Dread Necro/Warmage...

    Whenever you figure out how to resolve your dilemma, I'd be curious to see the statblock on this PC (or NPC) character. The combination of these two classes seems to me to be something that I would deem useful for a campaign I'm building. It could have some interesting potential. :]

    Infernum

    Thanks for taking the time to put up a review of the product. Without purposely looking for it, I came across the book in question at a FLGS yesterday and what you mentioned tends to resonate with what I perceived when I was thumbing through the contents. Needless to say, my purchases that day...

    Infernum

    I inadvertantly came across the Infernum line offered through Mongoose Publishing, but I haven't seen much about it in the way of reviews. I'm not too concerned about the PC classes, but more of the crunch that could be appropriated to other existing d20 Fantasy / D&D campaigns. Any opinons...

    What if your players had an innate knowledge of your setting?

    I did come across that Euratlas link a couple of weeks ago and remembered to bookmark it. I definitely like the scale involved, but wasn't sure how well I could appropriate it using my own political boundaries given its resolution. I've been toying around with Google Maps, but I admit it...

    What if your players had an innate knowledge of your setting?

    Yours caught my attention because I'm attempting to run mine in the same geographical area, but I'm trying to keep the timeline prior to 1250 so I can avoid the advent of gunpowder and cannons and keep more of the aspect of a fantasy campaign. It sounds to me like you're using modern political...

    What if your players had an innate knowledge of your setting?

    Interesting to come across this thread, as I'm trying to attempt exactly what you're bringing up purely for the sake of familiarity. I've also been considering coming across some plot ideas how the non-human races would exist in such a parallel world as I plan to use actual history, but hi-jack...

    How to make maps

    Glad I wasn't the only one that ran into this problem. ;)
