First, <B>Savage Species</B> gives us the half-ogre. Then <B>Races of Faerun</B> gives us the orog (minus the ogre blood that originally gave the orog its name --> orc+ogre = orog). Then I got sad. No ogre-blooded orcs were roaming the Realms... Then there was hope. The ogrillon! Has this...

Antimagic Fields... I do not believe that permanent antimagic fields will be the right way to go because no magic, be it Weave or Shadow Weave, functions within an antimagic field. One would need a spell that specifically targets the Weave (which has not been done yet and may open a can or...

Weavy Artifacts anyone? I find that artifacts always help carry/push along a plotline: Go ahead and tear down that big ol' Weave with these: > The Pinking Shears of Shar > The Ulutium's Ultimate Unraveler > The Thayan Threadpuller And when the damage is all done, repair your Weave with such...

This explanation only satisfies if the minotaur PC is an orphan with no attachment to any minotaur society. However, if this minotaur comes from an actual minotaur society (i.e. the advanced empire of minotaurs on Taladas on Krynn), then it would be common knowledge throughout that society that...

The song was written after Carly's painful breakup with the "early 70s playboy hunk" Warren Beatty (circa his film Shampoo). Music Trivia: Listen to that song closely and you can hear Mick Jagger doing background vocals with that distinctive Jagger voice.

Palisades Park Palisades Park is north of the GWB (or past exit 18 on the Turnpike). I know of a game in the Bronx that might still be looking for gamers, just 15 minutes over the GWB. I am in the northwest of NJ and nowhere near ya, TrentonJoe. - Ed

A Men of ENWorld Calendar? Hey! What's going on here? ;) First it was a shirtless Horacio. Then came the "pumped up" Baraendur with speedo... who was followed by the nicely defined Incognito. Lastly, Argent became the latest to bare (bear?) his chest. One is left wondering who's next on our...

It's been years... but I believe it was a small town called Albrightsville. I remember it was about 20 minutes south of Wilkes-Barre (where we used to go to party).

I am also an ex-Noo Yawker (now in the mountains of NJ) but I have been all over the place on weekend trips. Here are my suggestions. BTW, when are you planning on going (Winter, Spring, Summer). Timing can make an OK trip into an amazing thing to remember. Winter Spots: > Lake Placid: Home...

Mouse & Toe, I agree with what you say... there was little way to adapt what was happening in the book to the movie without some radical departures. My disappointment stems from the fact that it was unexpected and took me by surprise. I prefer to be warned in advance so as to change my...

Doc, All that happens, of course, in the book version... as we all now know in the movie version, things can be a little different. Here is what we can expect next year: > Aragorn enters and wins a male beauty competition. He is crowned Beauty King of Gondor. This burns Denethor up (he came...

Faramir Red, Faramir Blue, Faramir Old, Faramir New... Toe, I am curious as to your reasoning. Could you define for us what in your opinion "character" is and what makes a character richer than another? Also, in what ways does the old Faramir differ from the new? What is different about the...

Following that logic, the always adored and ever-busy McDonalds must then be the finest cuisine of the land. I do think that TTT is the McDonalds' version of Tolkien's books (a nationally targeted, mass-marketed movie modified to suit current cultural "tastes" - if you'll excuse the pun). BTW...

I wholeheartedly disagree. PJ's Faramir was completely untrue to Tolkien's vision Tolkien's Faramir was (much to his father's disgust) quite the fan of Gandalf in his youth. Farmir followed Gandalf's counsels and was akin to the faithful Numenorian men of old. His traits were those of...

GAMERS HEAR A WHAT! <B>Gamers Hear A What</B> Did you hear? Have you heard That Wizards the Company Is amending its words? Before a large crowd Stood Hasbronus the Great, Who was chosen to speak D&D’s newest fate. He walked up the hill And with a warbly, big voice Said rather smoothly “We...

Planescape... I would love to see Monte Cook take control of Planescape and bring that amazing setting into 3e with all the wonderful bells and whistles and whirring modrons that he brought to 2e PS (and all his 3e writing, too). - Ed Bonny

Very Low Level Illusionary Combos... Illusions can be great fun when setting traps to fool or scare the unwitting. I recommend that the illusionist be hidden or in the protection of allies when doing these stunts. Combo #1) BRING OUT YER DEAD Use ghost sound to create the noise of digging...

I may be missing something but wouldn't it be much easier just to cast sleep first and avoid the set up? The way I see this set-up is that the victim approaching the silent image will see the silent image vanish the moment the wizard begins to cast [i]sleep ([i]silent image ends immediately...
