It's the best resource for RPG news on the web. I read it daily if I can.

I like that Shake it Off is DR and not straight up healing. Seems flavorfully appropriate for the warlord.

Seeing my name in the author list of the issue was unexpected. In 2011, I had originally done an elemental bestiary article on commission which included mephits among other creatures. After I turned the article in, I was told that my mephit portion was being merged with another article on...

OP here. Theo's link to Gneech's table is exactly what I was looking for - something for a quick estimate of how hard a skill check would be for an "average" character of a particular level (aka ECL or CR). Obviously, "average" is a broad category and outliers like jumping Thri-kreen exist...

Yeah, on some systems the DDI makes huge files when you try to print the characters (300 MB+) which causes some printers to have problems. The same thing happens by default when you print to .pdf (using CutePDF or something similar). However, you can change the DPI setting on the PDF printing...
