So I found a link to http://www.dragonroots.net/index.htm in the sigs of an author contributing to issue 0 and I found some pricing confusion. As best as I can tell, the magazine costs $7.95 for 1 issue, but customers have the option to buy a 4-issue subscription for the same price, $7.95...

Good at crafting NPC's? Show your stuff. I've attached a list of characters for a ship in my D&D/AE homebrew called "The Southrunner" in both pdf and xls formats. Each has a name, race and level. They use a variety of sources. Take a look at the table and choose one, or more than one, to...

I've never bought Dungeon Tiles before, but I want this product based on the name alone. The confined spaces of urban environs always seem to demand more explicit layout, and I think that all the dungeon tiles I've seen have been pretty, whether or not I thought they seemed useful.

I love Tieflings. I love the name. I love the story. I love the feel. Planescape was, by far, my favorite 2nd E setting. Tiefers still see a lot of play in my campaign. I'm thrilled that they'll be included in the PHB1. I hope they'll get tables, or something equivalent, for making each...

You knew science was making progress on invisibility. Now, DARPA is doing field tests on Tongues. Check it out.

I am a linguist and a teacher of English. As a linguist, my training leads me toward descriptivism, rather than proscriptivism. That is, I am trained to observe the language people use, not to tell them what language they should use. As an English teacher, I cringe when my fellow ENworlders...

Whether you are normally a player or DM, the question is the same. I've been rereading chapter 1 of DMG II and thinking about the question of different play styles and wondered what you think your CHIEF motivations/interest is. I'm the kind of player who really enjoys: Accumulating Cool...

I've been thinking about magical plants and fruit and about plants that might occur in a magic-rich setting, but which we do not have in our world. I've got a few idea that I like and I'll share, but I'd like to see what, if any similar ideas others have employed, or even just conceived of, for...

I have Races of Stone and Dragon 278. What other resources am I missing for advice on the Dwarven language?

Knowing how much I love both dwarves and wolverines, my sweet wife made me up a tauric dwarf/dire wolverine PC as a surprise gift. I love it so much, I'm adding a new (N)PC race to my campaign. Problem is, I need a name for the race. What do they call themselves? Certainly not tauric...

Hasbro makes a set of stackable hex terrain that looks like it might work for D&D. Has anybody else tried it?

If I wanted to build a do-it-all bad mamajama archanist, could I do better than a wizard/warlock gestalt? I could give a wizard a bunch of reserve feats, opening up that second gestalt slot for some other practical task, but I can't imagine anything that would surpass wizard for miscellaneous...

What happened to the "Latest Forum Topics" Links beneath the reviews and the ENstore areas along the right-hand side of the news page? I rarely look at the reviews, or, for that matter, the store. I generally only look at today's news once a day, but I reference the latest formu topics...

Before I start on it, has someone else already done the work of statting out Hamilton's vampires for D&D?

A question regarding Tome of Magic, specifically the shadow magic section: The Initiate (6th) mystery "unveil" negates, among other things, the effects of the "shadow between" mystery. Problem is, I can't find the "shadow between" mystery. Was it renamed, omitted, or something else?

In this thread, there is some discussion of the Shadowcaster - whether the class is underpowered relative to the mean. I seem to remember that when Tome of Magic came out, folks expressed dismay at the Truenamer. Why so? What's wrong with the truenamer? Can it be fixed, as perhaps the...

Simple enough question: For those planning on running Ptolus, how many of you expect to use Dungeons & Dragons rules, as per The Player's Handbook, as the setting assumes Arcana Evolved rules, as detailed in Monte Cook's Arcana Evolved a hybridization of the two ?

When will you be ready for 4E? I'm not looking for a date. Those threads grow tiresome quickly. I'm looking for what conditions need to be met before most of us agree that the switch is a good one. 3E represented an incredible improvement over AD&D, IMO, but I've begun to see flaws that...

In this thread, RangerWickett explicated how he would build the ultimate diplomat. This reminded me of the old "Power Play" sidebars in Dragon just after 3.0 came out. I loved these little sidebars, and it occurs to me that many of you must have come up with "ultimate" builds to fill...

edit: Ptolus has arrived! I can't wait. I hate to wish my life away, particularly my vacation, but I really, really look forward to getting my hot little hands on this deluxe product.
