I've composed an "Anime Tarot" list, with anime characters as each of the 22 cards of the Major Arcana. I did it, this time, trying not to use multiple characters from the same anime (I did use Paranoia Agent twice). Allowing for that might have different results...I'd like to know what others...

Recent discussion about the book "Eragon" and its quality, or lack thereof have gotten me thinking about some things, and I'd like to start a general conversation about those things. Basically what sparked me off is this. On this site, and in critics reviews and various other places I...

I generally tend to read your usual fantasy/science fiction/horror stuff, Tolkien, Stephen King, Ray Bradbury etc. Medieveal Fantasy, contempory supernatural horror, futuristic science fiction. But I have also become increasingly interested in the "cyberpunk" style, mainly via movies like Blade...

Greetings all. I just finished watching Satoshi Kon's Paranoia Agent. I enjoyed it quite a bit, it reminded me a little of Lain in overall nature and layout. The story and characters were quite interesting, and there was plenty of mystery and many twists and turns. The story seemed to have a...

As a companion to my other poll, I'd like to see which classes people feel are a little on the weak side, mechanically. Again assuming a baseline game..and in this case comparison to like classes is important. For instance many feel the Sorcerer is a little weak compared to other primary...

I am curious to see which classes people feel are a bit stronger than they should be. Of course it can be pretty subjective and campaign dependent, but looking mostly at the mechanics themselves, in the assumed baseline of the game. Also, measuring classes against their general group (for...

Ok these spells are for the main bad guy in a game I hope to run soon. He's a magister/mage priest/archmage devoted to distant Lovecraftian thingies from Beyond, so I wanted to give him some spells with that kind of feel. The spells are unique to him. More will be coming, this is just a start...

Ok another of the major NPC badguys I am working on for the game I hope to run is a female magister who I am doing up as an "Energist". She has all 5 Energy Mage feats, etc. But I wanted some new and interesting energy spells for her. Lightning Hammer Evocation (Electricity) Level: 5...

Ok, getting on a roll here. I'll probably be producing witches and champions for the next week or so... Heres the Light Witch and the Dark Witch (dark as in regular darkness not as in the negative energy thing) The Light Witch Additional Class Skills: Spot Witchery: The light witch gains 60...

I may be running a game soon with some strong Lovecraftian feel to it, and so I have crafted a fitting new kind of Champion. I have no idea what to do for the "special" tho. Tell me what you think. EDIT: Changed the Champion of Maddness, added the Champion of Truth Champion of Madness...

Ok so heres my take on a Witch focused on weather in all its forms. I havent gotten a feel yet for Spirit manifestations, so any ideas for such for this witch type would be greatly apreciated. EDIT: Added the Eldritch Witch to this post so I dont have 20million posts in the forum. Still...

I have...or at least some times have...a problem with how Outsiders...or more specificaly the exemplar Outsiders, fiends, celestials, etc are presented and dealt with in D&D, on a couple of levels. One, is the whole spirit/body fusion thing. I tend to think of demons, angels etc as spiritual...

For some reason, when I try to submit a thread in the D&D rules forum, it seems to be working but then it just goes to a white screen that never goes away...and I go back to the forum to see if the post did in fact go through anyway, and theres nothing there. I can post in other forums, so far...

I may soon be running a small campaign that i plan to do as a fusion of AU and D&D, with some Unearthed Arcana variants thrown in as well, and I am looking for some advice and answers to a couple questions. I also have a couple of small complaints about AU. This is the basic layout. I'm going...

I'm watching my cheaply Ebay baught Neon Genesis Evangelion DVDs right now, and we're at the Shinji/Kaworu bedroom scene and I'm wondering to myself... Why do the Japanease have such tiny little blankets on their beds? I notice it a lot in Eva, and I think i've seen it in other Anime as...

I sadly havent actually gotten to play Arcana Unearthed/Evolved (I only own Arcana Unearthed and Diamond Throne) but when/if the day comes that I get to game again, I very much want to try it out. This being the case, and to help compensate for not actually getting to play, I would like to ask...

Ok...I like elemental magic, and the concept of an elemental mage, especially Air. The Elemental Savant is ok, but my big problem with it is that its more like an Energy Savant...most of the abilities enhance your spells of a wedded energy type...an Air Savant isnt any better at casting Fog...

Divine spellcasters and Paladins arent the only ones who choose to devote themselves to a cause. Some Mages feel compelled to use their great powers in the service of Good, and they seek out powerful celestials to teach them the secrets of holy power. These mages become Sorcerers of Light...
