Oh, I agree.

Don't read too far into that. If Mistwell is correct (and I'm not saying he is) the prophecy could still be about Neville even though Harry can pick it up. The spell that prevents any but the particulars from picking up the prophecy is not part of the prophecy itself but part of a secondary...

I think you might be confusing the movie with the books. I never got the feeling Elrond was bigoted against humans.

The *new* great equalizer. :D

I'll be seeing it tonight or tomorrow; comment then. I take it no serious diversions (other than Sirius' death) from the book? Also, regarding Flich -- consider him Lawful Neutral or even Lawful Evil, sorta Harry Potter's version of a Vogon. He's cantankerous and spiteful, but won't break...

What's wrong with Even Stevens? Not bad at all for teenage comedy.

I also think this is an interesting house rule. However, I would argue against modifying the skill system for it, and I don't think it should be one per simple weapon, either. I would argue instead that you create a Weapon Knack Feat that replaces Martial Weapon Proficiency and can be taken...

Curse you, I'm gonna be singing/humming/whistling "You got the touch!" all day now!

Yes but that example had been used as a "heavy-hitter" example, i.e. only uber-masters were capable of displaying that type of raw power. I was trying to show how the "lesser folk" were doing things. :)

Exactly. However, some have said that only the heavy hitters have shown telekinetic abilities like what's in the demo movie. But if you look at TPM, Obi-wan throws around half a dozen droids every other scene, and they can't be considered, you know, light. Then there's Vader tossing huge...

I'm gonna throw another vote in for modifying the Star Wars Saga edition. You can even keep/modify the Force rules. Rename Force Sensitivity to Mutant Potential, Force Training to Mutant Power and Use the Force to Use Mutant Power, then create a bunch of different super-hero powers to replace...

That sounds almost exactly like the spell points option in the old 2e Players Option's books. Which I never bought, so I can't double-check. But IIRC, that's the way they worked.

That second one sounds like a really fun campaign. In fact... I may steal it. :D

ME! I can't stand Legacy era. The game I'm about to start is post-Ep3 era.

If.... if only there were some... skill..... that represents how well you can, I dunno, focus on a particular task despite distractions. What would we call such a skill?

pssssst! "House Rule" Seriously, heroic droids get Force Points, which represent a heroic character's ability to tap into the Force (even if they're unaware of it). Why not access to the Force itself? Even then, there's always the cyborg route...

++ Seriously, a character without an origin and personality is just random numbers on a screen/page.

Very cool. Printed and bookmarked. :D [Edit: Anyone know when wizards will put up some RSS feeds?]

Actually, this might be a fun character to play if you do things the other-way round: Whenever your fringer gains a nat 20 and force point, he does something to gain a dark side point then uses the force point he just gained to wipe it out. You could roleplay it as a semi-sane guy who...
