Traits? How many traits are there? Any chance you could give us a list of traits, or some standouts that we haven't seen yet?

No Planar Handbook see subject, so if you want to toss someone else in for the fight or trade sides again... If we're trading, the elemental seems to be doing fine with the current state of affairs, so why change anything?

charge Holding her greatsword, the githyanki enters. This creature should be nothing compared to an illithid. She charges and chops with her silvery blade. (If she defeats the elemental and subsequently faces some fleshy, humanoid-type opponent that seems potentially vulnerable to her daze...

Equipment This is a general problem with humanoids. Nonhumanoids don't make much use of equipment, so it is fine for them that equipment isn't exhaustively listed. None of the creatures that have a bow listed actually state anywhere that they have arrows or how many. Your event and your...

Chaond vs Elemental The slightly hunchbacked, malformed humanoid enters the arena, (per stab block, terrible weapon choices) a sickle in one hand and a dart in the other, wearing a bandolier of additional darts. Before entering, it saw the creature sink into the floor. Lacking any better...

Chaond (i'll be posting tonight once I've gotten to my books, as usual. One clarification: the subject says fire elemental, but the description sounds more like an earth elemental...)

Compress away go ahead.

Gnome-Mane A remarkably evil and startlingly chubby little demon with crooked snaggleteeth and rotten claws waddles into the area beside the darkmantle (5' step). Someone seems to have strapped a faux beard and a floppy hat onto the corpulent demon, but they quickly fall off as it wades into...

Mane Will have to post tomorrow after I've had access to my books. Accursed lack of home internet access! :(

Tiefling versus Darkmantle Since it is surrounded by darkness anyway, the Tiefling drops his bolt-head to concentrate fully on firing. If he is on a cycle of 'fire, reload' presently (unsure) then fire (standard), drop crossbow (free), draw rapier (MEA) the round before squiddy reaches melee...

Good Warlock Feats Some promising options: You're going to be making a *lot* of ranged attacks over your career. Point Blank and Precise Shot are very popular. You're going to be giving people a lot of saves against secondary effects of eldritch blasts. Ability Focus (Eldritch Blast) You...

I understand that this is your schema, but it simply isn't objectively true: Service to royalty is the fundamental defining attribute of a knight, regardless of chess or fantasy genre usage having given a different impression. There are a wide array of dudes who make their living on horseback...

Die, dwarf. Plan as above. Fire and reload, fire and reload. Use the darkness if I get more seriously injured. Make the dwarf come to me if it wants to melee. (I'm on CST, but the times where I can sit and internet are at odd hours.)

Tiefling savvy This one'll be a little more complicated. The tiefling enters directly opposite the Elan with a loaded light crossbow in one hand. Experimentally, he takes a 5' step towards her, fires a bolt at her, and reloads. If the Tiefling fails to drop her and is himself damaged, rather...

Bad news for the Orc (Rats! One away from the Hall of Fame!) The orc enters the arena well aware that he has a long distance in which he could be fletched full of arrows. In his mind, he sees two alternatives: to inch gradually forward with his defenses high and eventually corner the woman...

Cavalier? "Hmm, I'd say that being rich and deftly navigating feudal obligations is in many ways distinctly un-knightlike, but I'll give you much of the rest." That all comes down to definitions and concepts. I'm guessing that your schema for a knight would be a chivalric, arthurian guy. I...

Halforc Charge! The halforc charges wormy, aiming to dice it thoroughly. Against all future opponents, it either charges with the falchion or readies to strike with the falchion or (if the creature demonstrates a ranged attack) throws his javelin. Compress away. *sigh* Or perhaps I'll just...

Nomad or Knight I'd incline to say that being rich and deftly navigating feudal obligations would be an equally valid description of what defines a knight, and having no permanent dwelling as defining for a nomad. I understand what you're trying to say about there being a 'mounted combat'...

Fight-fight-fight... The halforc continues to attack with his falchion (compress away). I seem to be perpetually at the threshold of hitting, but never quite there.

Half-orc? There isn't actually a stat block for a halforc in my MM. I'm sort of assuming here that the stat block would be as for the orc, but with the halforc racial adjustments rather than the orc race, and otherwise the same equipment. If you mean something other than a first level halforc...
