    Goad / Taunt ?

    While that might work for some games, if it was going to be a generally usable ability, I'd rather see a full house rule with appropriate skill check than hoping the DM feels like letting me get away with it.

    Race life expectancy issues

    of course not, that's OUR reason. ;) My point is that in another species there no particular reason for them to have the same length of infancy/adolecence/maturity as humans. If you want them to, fine, but there is nothing SoD blowing in principle about a species with a 100 year adolescence...

    Race life expectancy issues

    If you were a dog, it would probably shatter your SoD to have humans who aren't potty trained at 2 1/2 to 3, but there's quite a lot of them. ;) Prolonged infancy is one of the things that allows human intelligence and adaptability, why not an "advanced" race with an even more prolonged one?

    Ghost Hunters Live

    The preview could have been misleading, and I'd be happy to know either that it was fake or that they made it look more shocking for the teaser, but the overall premise is well outside my interests, so I haven't watched any episodes.

    Ghost Hunters Live

    I've really hoped that Ghosthunters was faked/scripted since I saw I saw previews for an episode where they were called to help a family who had "ghost" activity that was physically harming their child. Because if it's not faked, they were quite possibly rewarding Munchausen by proxy with a...

    Is it possible for a charmed creature to attack its charmer?

    No, he merely has never actually had a friend before. Being charmed would be in interest rp oppertunity....

    Real Bardic Music

    My standard recomendation for bard songs is Do You Hear The People Sing from Les Miz. Can it be applied to a D&D campaign? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4MFXnKzmXI :cool:

    Am I being unreasonable?

    The note has a confrontation and argumentative tone, and I wouldn't hope for the best in responses...

    Dealing with an argumentative player

    Hubby played in a game where the DM introduced a fairly harsh critical fumble rule. He dropped his rapid shot archer and started a wizard with no ray spells the next week, I believe. And I can't say I blamed him.

    Dealing with an argumentative player

    How much did you discuss the switch to Midnight? Because it sounds to me like at least some of your players are not having fun in that setting. One bit that sticks out is the "Call it, TPK" comment. From my personal expereince, that is NOT a player giving up because it's 'not a cakewalk' that's...

    Dealing with an argumentative player

    This sounds like a very clear way of expressing the kind of game you wanted to run. I would never play in such a game, and putting it so clearly would give me an unequivocal signal to leave, so I compliment you on your straightforwardness.

    Blade of Blood (PHB II)

    First, to clarify, it is the wielder, not the caster, who must hold it, so it can be cast on an ally's weapon, but not cast on a weapon which is then handed to an ally. That said, I would take "drops it or otherwise loses contact with it" to include ranged weapons and thus not allow it. Even...

    Why Shouldn't Martial Characters have powers?

    This is, imo, a completely viable idea for a fantasy world, and one which you can model using D&D, esp with some of the new feats in, for instance, Complete Champion. To say, however, that D&D by default assumes such a world is taking the narrow view. It is just as easy to play D&D in a world...

    Why Shouldn't Martial Characters have powers?

    It's coming from people answering the question asked in the first post.

    Ubercharger build?

    Currently I'm playing a psychic warrior with oversized two weapon fighting, leap attack and the power Psionic Lions Pounce. (not only allows full attack after a charge, can be augmented to do bonus damage on each strike.) I doubt it's the Ubercharger, but under the right circumstances, it makes...

    Why Shouldn't Martial Characters have powers?

    The problem is not "deaf ears" it's that those who have been talking non magic ToB are using a different definition of powers (different, imo, from the one implicitly established in the first post as well) and talking at cross purposes with those they think they are debating. I'm not going to...

    14 year old girl wants to join my game

    So you insult one reference to possible consequences as a mere appeal to emotion... and then present a consequence at least as exagerated in order to appeal to slightly different emotions?

    14 year old girl wants to join my game

    Applying signal detection theory to law is a hobby of mine as well. ;) But not here usually because if an oppertunity comes up the thread has probably slid into politics and will be closed before I can really sink my teeth into the discussion.
