The thing is, I don't want them to function as arms at all when the character is fused with her Eidolon. Picking up and manipulating items is the job of her pigtails-turned-giant-writhing-snakes that stick out the back of her head. I need her arms to stop being arms, and be something else...

I'm playing a Synthesist archetype Summoner, whose Eidolon is an HP Lovecraft-inspired unspeakable-horror-from-outside-the-universe. I'm trying to draw a picture of this character, so that the party, (myself included) have an easier time visualizing exactly what my character turns into. And I...

I do want the alignment planes to exist. If they didn't, I'd either have to say that Angels, Demons, Slaad, Inevitables and the like don't exist, or I'd have to move them onto other planes. Not to mention that the corresponding Material Plane would need a new theme. This Material Plane is going...

I guess some background info would be good... Sorry, I kinda typed that up in a hurry. For starters, there are three Material Planes. Each one is surrounded by a different theme of other planes. Another Material Plane is actually surrounded by the Elemental Planes, rather than the...

I need some ideas for other planes of existence in a campaign setting I'm making up. Right now, I'm having the most trouble thinking up some good Alignment-based planes. "Outer Planes" as the Great Wheel labels them. I need one for each of the nine alignments, including TN, and I'm having huge...

Yes, I do intend to keep as many things as possible working exactly like they do in the book. (less work for me, and less chance of unwittingly unbalancing something.) But some things about Star Wars just doesn't work for Transformers no matter how much you re-flavor it. A lot of the force...

Unfortunately, right now I don't have any money to be spending on extra books. (not even the $5 it would take me to get Mechamorphosis...) And I don't know if it's my computer or what, but when I try to load that pdf file, it just comes up as a big blank screen. Right now I think the biggest...

I'm trying to create a Tramsformers RPG, but I'm making little progress. I have decided to base ot off of the Star Wars Saga Edition. The rules just "feel" more like Transformers than any other game I've read. Choosing a vehicle form for your character will be similar to choosing a race in...

I'm only a few pages in, but I already love the way it simplifies the concepts without making me feel stupid. I love the phone call comparison.

I can't get either of those programs to work so far as connecting to other players. I've been searching and googling, and firewall-ing, and router-ing, and properties-ing around in circles forever, and I CAN'T GET THE STUPID THINGS TO WORK!! (On the plus side, I've learned a great deal about...

Well, I was talking mostly about the monster creation stuff, like on pages 174 and 184 of the 4E DMG. There are some charts on p. 184 that basically let you instantaneously stat out any monster you can think up, and run it on the fly. Just pick a level, pick a role, maybe give it a special...

I love the simplicity and versatility of creating or changing monsters and the well-structured Roles for monsters that determine what tactics they use to attack the party from 4th Edition. But I really like almost everything else from 3rd and 3.5. How might I go about translating the numbers...
