    Orcish Werebears

    When I first saw this I thought, 'nah he's wrong' so I checked and you where totally right. This is news to me as I thought infected Lycans could pass the curse on. I might be thinking of the wrong game addition. An interesting plot line concerning the last of the true noble Werebears...

    Shadowrun d20???

    The more I have thought about it over the last few days the more I have realised that SAGA would be best system for a Shadowrun convert. Reasons: 1) Its fast to play. The card mechanic uses lots less time that dice. 2) Using Marvel SAGA gives you a universe/rules for lots of tech already. 3)...

    Orcish Werebears

    >>I'd consider taking a common plot of werewolf movies and flip them round. Quite whether an evil being gets 'teh angst' about doing good deeds is an interesting question. Now thats a good idea. I like the idea of Orcs waking up to find things tided, slaves released, unsafe fires put out...

    Orcish Werebears

    According to the MM everytime a Lycanthrope changes back he has to make a Will save (DC15+ number of times hes changed) to avoid taking on the alignment of the Weretype permanatly in all forms as well the Voluntary change rule. WErebears where CG? That would certainly change them a lot...

    Orcish Werebears

    Very interesting points, makes a lots of sense. Question for you then- an Orc that has been raised the way Orcs are get infected by a Werebear and the animals instincts take him over, what sort of effect would that have on the former CE creature? The new way of LG thinking is almost totally at...

    Sorcerors powers for Clerics?

    I borrowed this book from one of my group and had a look- I think this class is exactly what I need, and the fact that the book is a Wizards one helps a lot - hes always been more inclined to let Wizards stuff in than 3rd party. THanks to all posters.

    Shadowrun d20???

    Fundamental problems I have with a Shadowrun convert to D20 is 1) There where no levels; adding D20 levels somehow simply seems to polulate the game consepts. Also in SR runners start out quite hard, are D20 runners genna start at level 4 or 5? If not there are going to get splatte by any of...

    Does evil mean Evil? Is a paladin free to act against evil?

    I handled Paladins simply. I removed the class from my world. Too many headaches.

    Orcish Werebears

    According to the rules someone who becomes infected with lycanthropy and fails a saving throw becomes the alignment of the Were type they are infected with permanantly. So what happens if you infect an Orc with Werebear lycanthropy? The Bear is Lawful Good, the Orc Chaotic Evil.......so what...

    Cards as alternatives to dice?

    Having played and run both versions of SAGA I can recommend it for anyone looking for an alternative way to play D&D. It's fast, celver, removes a lot of the problems with life/death situations depending on a single roll and best of all Dragonlance has a fully improvisational magic system...

    Orcs used to be Lawful Evil

    Oddist tihng I ever did with Orc alignment was to have an entire tribe infected by a Werebear. Whole tribe of LG shapeshifters fighting the evil of their own brethren...... Amazing to watch players faces when LG Orc Werebear Paladin turn out to be the contact the Adventurers Guild had sent them...

    So is an 18-year-old elf in diapers?

    Cure disease, while retarding the effects of aging wont stop someone getting old. The Human body will still fail and magic might help but nothing will stop it. As a side note - I removed Raise Dead, Reseruction Reincarnation etc. When you die in my game world the Gods will only give you back if...

    So is an 18-year-old elf in diapers?

    Personally I have reduced Elven lifespan down to mearly 120 years. Humans only live to 40-50, Orcs 30 tops, Dwarves 80-100, and the small races about 50 years. The reason? Simple- I think that for a Human player to try and roleplay something as Alien as a 100+ year old near-immortal is...
