Yeah, thanks for the suggestion, but I'm starting to think I've set up an impossible choice. I want tech to be as available in a non-tech world as it would be in a tech-dominated world, but I don't want it to be conjured in too fantastic a fashion (partly because spells, summoned entities...

Not quite. I'm not asking how to explain why certain people have this ability but not everyone. Rather, I'm asking how these people are getting ahold of the things only they know how to use in the first place. Either I litter ruins and tech-shops all over the planet (which strikes me as...

I'm working on a campaign world using the Anima: Beyond Fantasy game system. That game system has rules for mundane combat (with weapons or unarmed), magic spellcasting, summoning of both physical creatures and other spirits, psychic powers, ki abilities and the option to create specific ki...

I'm sorry to hear ya'll's game got pushed back. I read that and I know to wait, so this is just me popping in here to say I haven't forgotten this thread.

I saw the book last Saturday and it intrigued me. I've been glancing through it at Borders a little bit at a time and am still wondering if it would be a good choice to buy. What I look for in an RPG: Pre-existing setting that can be easily changed into something else. I like it when a game...

Yeah, that's kind of a problem. See, the race was originally created in a pseudo-Star Trek setting, so part of the problem is translating them into a medieval setting but retaining the core concept of the race (hence, the "A Wizard did it"-esque explanation of their creation; arcane and divine...

I'm mostly pleased with the race, but I'm not confident in the racial power or the racial feats (well, Experienced Sentinel, really; Senses Open to the World is on par with Agile Athlete so I'm all right with it). What I'm looking for are some suggestions/alternatives to the Berserk Rage. I...

Heroic Racial Feats Experienced Sentinel [Chakat] Prerequisite: Chakat Benefit: You no longer suffer a -2 penalty to all defenses for using the berserk rage power. Paragon Racial Feats Senses Open to the World [Chakat] Prerequisite: Chakat Benefit: When you make an Insight check or a...

Chakat A race of survivors whose gentleness belies their passion in the defense of their allies. Racial Traits Average Height: 5’ – 5’ 8” Average Weight: 350 - 440 lb. Ability Scores: +2 Strength, +2 Wisdom Size: Medium Speed: 7 squares Vision: Low-light Languages: Common, choice of...

I don't know. I think it's more appropriate that they don't have pp and thus have PrCs denied them. Remember that the Warlock has the same problem (by not having such-and-such level spells to meet prerequisites with). If PrCs are a problem, then I'd either a.) put in Wild Talent and just...

In my full BAB psionics class, the Psi-Fighter, I did the exact same thing (they are always treated as having one power point solely for the purpose of being able to attain a psionic focus. I also assumed that that would be enough to qualify them as being psionic characters, but it was pointed...

Well, not so much "plain don't want to" as I don't feel I have the right. You came up with the name and it's unique enough to the class that it should keep it's unique name. I just like the idea of whatever I come up with being original (or at least, original in name). What I'm toying around...

As promised, an expanded list of power styles: WEAPONEER: Metaphysical Weapon (1), Prevenom Weapon (1), Power Weapon (2), Extend Reach (2), Keen Edge, Psionic (3), Vampiric Blade (3), Weapon of Energy (4), Psychokinetic Weapon (4), Empower Weapon (5), Blackstone Hammer (6) TANK: Thicken Skin...

You're very welcome. Actually, I just used the Ranger as a template to determine whether my class was underpowered, balanced, overpowered, or a full caster. It's really more of a Psychic Duskblade. Concerning the powers known: I think it’s too restricted. I like the idea of having multiple...

Just a few questions, 'cause I love the class and I want to be sure to get it right. 1.) Why just Wis bonus to AC instead of Wis bonus + (up to) 4 like the normal Monk? 2.) I suppose the Mantra Monk is capable of bypassing the normal restriction of still having at least one PP in order to...
