    Monster Damage: What am I missing?

    There ARE some powers that have that rule built into the power itself. But it's not a general rule. It's a specific effect of a certain power (or weapon? or monster? I can't remember where, but that effect DOES exist somewhere). I think he's getting the general mixed up with the specific.

    D&D 4E 4e Pokemon Tabletop RPG

    This is exactly why I don't think D&D is the best option for a Pokemon RPG. Let me show you what I would do. Trainers Trainers have no stats or powers as we think of them. They have story-style descriptions, and they have XP. Whenever a pokemon earns XP, so does the Trainer. However, while a...

    D&D 4E 4e Pokemon Tabletop RPG

    I'll be honest: I think this project is doomed. I think a Pokemon RPG is actually a brilliant idea, and would love to see it. But I think you need a new system, not trying to squeeze Pokemon into the rather incompatible D&D system. They are SO very different in style, flow, and general sequence...

    D&D 4E 4e Pokemon Tabletop RPG

    I would have it function similar to the Beast Master Ranger, with obviously less focus on dealing damage directly, and more from the "Beast". Also, the ability to switch beasts. But I like what you've got so far. Some real gems in there.

    Equipment that grants flying

    There's some shoes. Winged Boots or something like that. Could swear that for some reason, there's a head slot item, too. I could be wrong on that one.

    Two related rules: Christianity and Earth

    I believe I already mentioned Saint George. I think he'd be a perfect fit for Kord. He was a saint of strength, and power. He is worshipped by knights, paladins, crusaders, and is even the patron saint of The Knights Templar. Saint Joseph of Arimathea would work for the Raven Queen. He is the...

    The REAL Race Elimination ROUND 3!!!

    For that flip-side effect, I am developing a campaign in which the characters may only play traditionally "monster" races. Drow, goblins, orcs, kobolds, minotaurs, etc. It's gonna be one of those "other side of the coin" deals where they have to defend themselves from constantly roaming groups...

    Two related rules: Christianity and Earth

    To bother you again... Cosmologically, I would go with a variation on a theme. Instead of simply "Hell", give it the full 7 layers, like in Dante's Inferno. In fact, you could base the entire cosmology around the multiple layered facets of The Divine Comedy. It's a great inspiration for a...

    Two related rules: Christianity and Earth

    And now that I think about it, there's of course Saint George and the Dragon. It just brings up ALOT of questions. Is there a Feywild? What about a Shadowfell? Obviously, there's no Elemental Chaos or Astral Sea or any of that, since going with the Christian "mythos", you have only Heaven and...

    Two related rules: Christianity and Earth

    As for dragonborn, here's the big question: Are there dragons? In the Arthurian tales, many of them were definetly "low magic". Magic existed, certainly, but it was by no means commonplace. Excalibur, Merlin, Morgan le Fay... and that's about it. You may want to look at the DMG2 rules for low...

    Katta (from Quest For Glory)

    This is the katta race, as seen in the Quest For Glory adventure games from the early 90s by Sierra. They are a race of cat-like people with a definite "arabian nights" feel to them. Okay, well, critique away! KATTA Ability Score: +2 Dexterity, +2 Charisma Size: Small Speed: 7 Vision...

    Race Elimination Round 1!

    And that's exactly the point. Clearly they are not actually intended for play (or, at least not ready for play), and so I'm not sure that we should even be bothered to vote against them. It would be like voting against the Witchalokk in a "worst class" vote.

    Race Elimination Round 1!

    I'm not even sure the MM races should be on this list. Stick to races that are in a Player's Guide (PHB, PHB2, Ebberon, or Realms) or at least have a full Dragon write-up (like the Minotaur). The lack of information and options like racial feats, paragon paths, and story fluff for those races...

    Riddle me this...

    I am interested in including some sphinx-like characters in my campaign, and need a few good riddles of a classic variety. Any good (free) resources out there for riddles?
