    Pensacola, FL or Crestview, FL

    That's fairly close by where my next base will be in Panama City. I leave Japan in January but probably won't get settled into Florida until around the end of March-April 08 or thereabouts, so if you're still looking for more folks in the long term then I might be interested.

    PC Races with Charisma Bonuses

    Draconic template gives a +2 Str, +2 Con, +2 Cha bonus, +1 LA (one of the better +1 LA templates) Fire-Souled template (from Dragon magazine) gives a +4 Cha and the Leadership feat (I believe that one is a +3 LA).

    Spell Compendium

    Moon Blade; man, if you thought Wraith Strike was bad, this spell makes WS look downright tame by comparison. The only saving grace was that SR still applied. As it stands, MB blows Brilliant Energy weapons out of the water by being melee touch attacks (negating natural armor bonuses to AC), and...

    Teleknesis: where's the power?

    True, but I also recall that there was a feat called Extraordinary Concentration in Complete Adventurer (I believe) that allowed one to maintain concentration of a spell as a move action provided that you pass a set Concentrate DC (not too hard at the mid-high levels with maxed out ranks and...

    Teleknesis: where's the power?

    The things that bug me about the TK spell is the relatively low weight limitations (a max of 375 pounds at level 15? that's it? how does a caster hope to affect larger creatures with this, or even 2 fully grown medium-sized targets with this spell? pretty weak) and the violent thrust manuever (a...

    Extra Spell

    I was also wondering how Extra Spell works in regards to the Sublime Chord PrC and its odd spell progression. If such a character wanted to take the feat and learn a 3rd level sorcerer/wizard spell (at say, level 12 when he receives a feat), could he? Sublime Chords start off knowing 4th level...

    Hexblade 101

    Also wanted to point out that the anti-impact property only halves damage from falling, constriction, or crushing attacks/effects, not from blunt/bludgeoning weapons. Aside from that correction, wanted to say thanks for the write up! It's very informative as I rather like the hexblade class...

    Weapon Upgrade Idea...

    There's always the Item Familiar variant rules in Unearthed Arcana, though you'd need to start with an existing magic item (it doesn't have to be a weapon) of at least 2,000 gp value and requires a feat to be taken (minimum character level 3).

    Sunblade Question

    A few more questions that have come up concerning the sunblade. The DMG describes all sunblades as always being of good alignment. Does this mean that all sunblades are treated as good aligned for the purpose of bypassing DR/good? I would say yes as it would make sense to me given the weapon's...

    Creepy...

    I ran a more horror-themed campaign once a few years back. Basically, the PCs were various rag-tag characters in a growing city originally founded by ancient cultists whose memory was lost long ago, and much of the PCs gathering together in the first few sessions involved the local teamsters and...

    Your DND music soundtrack

    Nice choices. Aside from the LotR movies, 13th Warrior, Conan, Braveheart, Willow, and Gladiator, a few choice pieces from Star Wars (the Vader death theme is appropriately sad), anime and video games have a few good ones too. Record of Lodoss War was mentioned as was the various Final Fantasy...

    ID: Weapon from the anime movie Ninja Scroll

    I'd go with Anime Kidd's suggestion. I'd say the majority of the characters in NS were high level and maybe with epic-levels thrown in (being able to spontaneously regenerate seems appropriate for it). You could just say that Tessai's sword was a unique weapon with multiple or a more powerful...

    Dervish with Whirlwind Attack feat

    Combining Dervish with say, Scout, Unfettered, Monk, and/or Tempest can get pretty sick, especially with feats like Combat Expertise, Spring Attack, and Whirlwind Attack, plus using gestalt rules (which is the case in my game). It's a powerful build, sure, but it has its weaknesses too. The...

    Your least favourite setting

    I don't exactly hate any one setting, though some have elements or ideas that don't really appeal to me as a DM nor as a player. Ravenloft comes to mind. The occasional horror themed adventure is one thing, but basing an entire setting around that becomes pretty oppressive as far as themes go. I...
