    Muay Thai Monk

    I would say the archetype for the monk class and (most of) the feats for it is the "kung fu monk". I wanted to see what you all would do for a Muay Thai monk, particularly the more traditional, attrition style. Thanks.

    Can you flank with a non-ally?

    I think there are two aspects to flanking: 1) The division of attention of the victim; 2) The coordination of efforts by the flankers. 1) is clearly still in place in the "three-party system" while 2) is questionable. Monte Cook put forth a house rule (in some book or other) that allows a...

    Baleful Polymorph into a Monkey - Verbal Spells?

    Scientifically speaking, monkeys lack what is called the pharynx which in humans allows for the resonation of sounds yielding the richness of linguistically distinguishable phonemes. In short: no, a monkey could not cast spells with verbal components.
