    Real world myths and legends: Who's Epic Level?

    Ron "Hedgehog" Jeremy- schlub who has starred in countless pron movies and had sex with countless starlets. If that doesn't require epic abilities nothing else will!

    Dragon #294 in today!

    My only thought concerning Rao is that either he has a buttload of salient abilities to make up for his lack of levels, he has invested a huge amount of energy into several divine artifacts, or that he's on the way down the godscale ladder. Are we certain mortal born gods aren't considered...

    Wizards of the Coast LAYOFFS

    Actually I would anticipate a 4e within the next 2-3 years simply because the most money can be made off of core rule books and core supplemental sourcebooks. People might hate thier tendency of having very short product cycles but Games Workshop has an excellent business module in coming out...

    Wizards of the Coast LAYOFFS

    Hehe so it's unreasonable to apply general business practices to one company. I assure you that business analysts, consultants, and investors do this all the time. I was simply speculating on what I feel the hasbro executive in charge of the WotC division would do based on some not unreasonable...

    Wizards of the Coast LAYOFFS

    I'm by no means supporting the actions taken but simply mentioning them as a fact of life in the current business world. I for one don't quite believe in the usage of layoffs for maintaining profit margins and definitely frown on the assertion that layoffs are done to protect a company from...

    Dragon #294 in today!

    Well I imagine that Boccob will likely be a 20th Level Wizard/ 20th Level Cleric/ 10th Lvl Loremaster with the Several Spell Focuses or perhaps a salient ability that increases DC of spells. Vecna will likely be 20th lvl Necromancer/ 20th lvl Cleric with buttloads of Necromancy advantages...

    Wizards of the Coast LAYOFFS

    Honestly this hardly surprises me at all because in all likelyhood it's going to get worse before too long. Reasons for this revolve around modern business practices, which Hasbro no doubt follows. While I have no figures on the sales, debt load, etc of Hasbro and WotC before they were...

    Dragon #294 in today!

    Well he also had the orbs from ToEE plus whatever stuff he's inherited from his mummy and daddy. He's a scrapper but I always thought that St Cuthbert pretty much kicks his hind end whenever Iuz breaks too many rules. The artifacts I was talking about were more along the lines of the core...

    Dragon #294 in today!

    Hrmm so his cambion form is still just medium then? Hard to explain then, my guess is that he's devoted alot stat increases plus inherent bonuses to strength. Personally I've always thought of him as more of a scheming sorceror type who uses pawns and lackies to beat up the opposition. After...

    Dragon #294 in today!

    Iuz normally has 2 forms a wizened old man and a huge demonic form. If you were to factor in the strength and constitution ups for say moving from medium to say huge or bigger that strength stat seems pretty reasonable. Just because Graz'zt isn't enormous doesn't mean that Iuz doesn't take...

    Dragon #294 in today!

    Well hopefully they have some flavor text that explains why a God that has been supposedly bound for eons and that every other god including nasties like Nerull and Incabulos fear getting free suddenly has the power to manifest himself on Oerth. I'm not saying that Erik Mona and company don't...

    Dragon #294 in today!

    Well I suspect that Tharizdun cannot even manifest an avatar at all due to his bindings and that his stats represent a newly reawakened Tharizdun active on Oerth. Does the information on Rao include the Crook of Rao? Finally are the old rules about only demigods and quasi-dieties interfering...

    Axioms of D&D

    Large populations of Half- templates indicate Celestials, Fiends, Elementals, and Dragons like sex with mortals.

    Statting the WotC Staffers?

    You guys are suck ups I'd probably make them all subtle variations of commoners with profession:game designer and knowledge: 3e. I might give them all the special ability of negative charisma bonuses are treated as positive vs mewling fanboys.

    is there such thing as a good FR novel?

    I think Greenwood is a victim of his own success, I've read that he'd much rather do other characters than Elminster but that's what the brass expects so he gets stuck writing plots for Mr. Invincible. Personally I think every book of his since Spellfire has gone downhill, I wonder if that's...

    Bastion of Lost Souls (Spoilers)

    Demogorgon has been known to prop up lesser cults and other figures, perhaps Ashardalon is a Proxy of Demogorgon as I doubt even an magic heavy 20th level party comprised of the Iconics could take on one of the heftiest Demon Princes solo and why Demogorgon wouldn't just summon wave after wave...

    ECL of monsters: Playtest of a centaur

    I think Mal and CR are dead on with thier analysis I would go a bit farther and suggest the following. Certain Monster types are equivalent to certain class types. I think it's a fair assumption that 90% of rare character types will be of the following monster types: Fey, Giant, Humanoid...
