    Monk/Rogue PrC

    I have to admit that I had a momentary flash of panic when I saw your name on the thread; I was sure you were going to say something like "How dare you seal from me!" I'm glad I was wrong. :) Good point. I just like the image of the "hard to see" character. Steve, the Barbarian: "Hey, what...

    Beautiful! I love a PC with a high Bluff skill. A previous character I played had an absurdly high Bluff and Charisma score and I would routinely lie to everyone and anyone... nothing major, of course. Just enough of a tweak to make me look more heroic! It was a blast. And in my other story...

    The Realms of Enlightenment: The Grey Companions

    I know the one. :lol: This is the first time that Sparky got any real personality and I wanted to make him a real personality. Much of his demeanor stems from in-jokes at Huzair's player. For instance, he's always the one asking "So, why are we here, again?" so I had to make Sparky hyper...

    Monk/Rogue PrC

    Thanks. I was trying to fill one of the roles created by the Ascetic feats. Now I just need to come up with Monk/Ranger and Monk/Paladin versions. Correct. Specifically because I didn't want to eliminate the usefulness/apeal of that PrC. I did look pretty closely at Thief-Acrobat when I was...

    Monk/Rogue PrC

    After asking over in THIS THREAD about multi-class monks to fill the character niches created by the Ascetic series of feats in Complete Adventurer and discovering that there weren't necessarily any out there I took it upon myself to design one for the Ascetic Rogue. It's in the footsteps of...

    The Realms of Enlightenment: The Grey Companions

    [Realms #366a] The Test of Earth, part II They were getting overrun, Morier thought grimly to himself. And this was only the first of four tests of strength they'd need to complete in order to get the keys they needed. Gritting his teeth, he hefted Ravager and continued forward. Ayremac glanced...

    What's your favorite spell system?

    I quite enjoy the magic system in Grim Tales. It uses all the same D&D spells (or really any spells you want) but doesn't use slots at all. Once you know a spell you can cast it as often as you want. Of course, you probably don't want to cast it all that often since there's a risk of taking...

    Looking for alternative Monk classes

    Darn me and the whole taking lunch late today thing! :mad:

    The Realms of Enlightenment: The Grey Companions

    [Realms #366] The Test of Earth For a moment silence filled the cavern, then Spot sniffed the sprite's broken body and let out a pained yowl that echoed throughout the chamber. "Damn," Huzair grimaced, turning away from the horribly damaged corpse. He turned invisible and with a condescending...

    Multi-class Monk

    And that would work with the Ascetic Knight feat as well although it'd require a pretty major dip into the Paladin class to fulfill the 1st level divine spell casting requirement. I'm not familiar with Oriental Adventures - ie, I don't own it. Seems like a possible buy for the future. I was...

    Multi-class Monk

    Good catch. Thanks. I've changed my initial post to reflect the proper spelling. Although Aesthetic Rouge seems like a reasonable concept. :lol:

    Multi-class Monk

    In Complete Adventurer I've seen the Ascetic series of Monk feats (ascetic Mage and ascetic Rogue, for example) that allows multi-classing and continued some limited advancement of certain Monk class features. Furthermore, I've seen the Enlightened Fist Prestige Class in Complete Arcane which...

    Ahh... the PC motto for many a game.

    The Realms of Enlightenment: The Grey Companions

    Heh heh... No, not really. But it was pretty easy for her to talk me into a rather unconventional replacement character. Well, unconventional for our campaign, where dead usually means DEAD. But we're not talking minotaur sorcerers or anything. :D

    The Realms of Enlightenment: The Grey Companions

    If you're refering to the Xorn, it wasn't actually a grapple - it attacked once during the surprise round and then beat Lela's inititative to get her again with a full attack. All the rest is just my pretty, pretty writing. ;) Morier and Ayremac got Reflex saves to catch her. I think that...

    The Realms of Enlightenment: The Grey Companions

    [Realms #365a] Clipped Wings "Okay, lads and lassies, this be the test o' strength. This be what we 'ere for," Karak bellowed as the faen's shriek of pain reverberated against the walls of the cavern. "One o' the keys be within reach. Just concentrate and focus our efforts to prevail. Now let's...

    That's just beautiful! What a great use for such an oddball item. I won't ask where you came up with the idea for that one, HM. :D

    [Realms #365] What the Faen Saw "So this be the Test of Earth," Karak muttered, his head still craned upward to look at the bridge of stone overhead. "It do nae seem so bad." "Lets be careful, just the same, Karak," Ayremac suggested in a tense whisper. He was working at re-securing his armor...
