It's interesting to be responding to these comments, since 3.0 was the first D&D I played. :) The Cha bonus from Divine Grace does indeed stack with the other attribute scores for saves. Usually though the feat/ability will say if it stacks with other bonuses or it replaces the bonus. The...

I'm with Sejs -- as long as the solution is something that they could naturally expect, then I'd just tell them "if you want, you can wipe away the venom with a full-round action."

God of War What can I say? I'm not even an action game fan and I loved this game. Every attack looks awesome and the controls are easy enough. http://www.gamespot.com/ps2/action/godofwar/ We Love Katamari An excellent sequel to the ball-rolling quirkiness that is Katamari Damacy. New stages...

I don't have any experience with epic levels, but I liked the Void Incarnate from the WotC website: http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/ei/20030418a (scroll down) Wouldn't be able to take it next level, and if you don't have ranks in Escape Artist or Bluff... well then it might not be...

Nope, I mean Strong Mind from the ECS which gives +3 against psionic abilities and mind attacks. EDIT: Oh, well I see it says that there's an exception to the rule anyway. Crow is nummy! Anyway, I imagine it's just an issue of flavor -- psionics are used differently from magic anyway...

As far as the transparency issue goes, it's mainly for interaction between magic and psionics. Such as, say, Dispel Magic can end Personal Mind Blank, and PR applies against Fireball. However, a dwarf still only gets his +2 saving throw bonus against spells, and the Strong Mind feat only gives...

Actually, according to dictionary.com

Certain errors make me cringe a little, particularly loose for lose, but for the most part it really doesn't bug me. Partially it's because sometimes I will misspell something like there/their/they're, even though I know the difference. (Sometimes I've even typed .orgy when I meant to type...

Just a minor exception -- as of 3.5 natural armor is divided into enhancement bonuses to natural armor and natural armor you have... naturally (see Barkskin spell). But that's the only exception besides dodge and unnamed.

Fortunately since it's Eberron, you can have the halfing ride a dinosaur instead. That could be really fun, riding around on a clawfoot or fastieth flinging down spells. :D It doesn't seem like there's too many "bad" races for sorcerers out there, since as long as they don't have a cha penalty...

Really? I can't say I have a particular problem with it myself. I suppose I think of disbelief as a different nature than knowing, and someone casting shadow spells would learn to alter their mindset appropriately to get the most advantage out of non-reality. But moreover I just like using it...

Mine's similar! "Integers don't use decim--brrrrr it's chilly!"

"This is just what I've been saying for years -- bears are godless killing machines that are only after us for our honey!"

The only encounter with a homosexual character I can think of was a game with a one-session comically flamboyantly gay villain (interestingly enough, the DM was gay herself). Otherwise, it never really came up.

I find this interesting, since I tend to find getting accustomed to the controls on RTS games rather difficult, particularly for playing with skill. Then again, I also don't really play action games, instead mainly playing console-style RPGs which aren't known for their complex control schemes...

Just yesterday I fixed a problem on the family computer running Windows ME involving some K9otherlettersandnumbers security update that just spontaneously started causing problems, and yours sounds similar to mine. You might want to try running in safe mode (hold Ctrl on startup) and running...

My very first DM was female. Interestingly enough, the fact that she was female usually isn't all that salient.

Just yesterday, a friend commented on her AC being broken. You can guess what I thought!

It's on pg. 307 of the MM, 5th paragraph under Damage Reduction.

It's hard for me to really say what my appeal to the series is. With the exception of FF11 (which is an MMO), I've played all the FFs from 4 and up, and my opinions on each of the games range from "That was a really enjoyable experience" to "That was SO AWESOME," leaning mostly to the latter...
