Do you mean the stock of the paper (type of manufacturing?) or just that pattern/design? The stock seems like just a standard glossy, the design is the whole art-house lined style WOTC developed. I pity the poor art director who had to match up the typography text to the background lining...

As a DM, I would say u-u-uusually no, because I think there's plenty of diversity and character exploration to be had in the main races and classes, not to mention cross-classing and prestiges. However, rule of thumb for me tends to be: 1. Funky made-up class or monster race or whatever...

Seems to me that if the Tyrannasaurus is already an 18HD heavy, adding a character class is pretty much just "flavor", right? I say hook it up with an NPC class level or two, like expert or adept. Lots of room there for a more "explorative" skill set or magical exploration, as opposed to the...

Iconic Adventures I'm not looking at the Adventure Path modules right now, but I do highly recommend them. They are all well-written and for the most part delightfully easy to run. I think the least interesting to me was the Lord of the Iron Fortress. I even liked Speaker in the Dreams, which...
