Mine is unique.

I voted for Halls of Anarchy, because 1) I worked on the team that created it and 2) I ran it for my group and it went rather well.

Not if you're taking the position that you get a number of spell effects equal to the number of wizards, eh? So you're saying 20 wizards should be able to cast 20 disintigrate spells, at a hightened DC and SR, with absolutley no penalty whatsoever for doing so? What wizard society wouldn't...

It's been said but bears repeating, have the BBEG have a familiar with Scent. Or guard animals. Invisibility is common enough in the D&D world that intelligent opponents will have taken steps to thwart it as a common means of getting into their lairs. And what counters invisibility often (but...

OK, imagine a cabal of only 20 wizards, of a mere 12th level, if that makes you feel better. I have a feeling a few Disintigrate spells with DCs of 50+ would make you agree that cooperative spell, in the hands of a wizardly organization, is a force to be reckened with.

A high level wizard will have even fewer funds available than you realize to scribe spells into his BBB. Think about it. He will have spent a good portion of his career without the BBB, scribing spells for full cost into his regular spellbook. Once he finally manages to scrape together enough...

I always assumed it was intended to have a single spell go off, but more difficult to resist. There is preciedent for this in fantasy literature, and I assumed they were making a feat to mimic what you read about in books. For example, a wizard who violates the precepts of his order might be...

It was more interesting this way. :p

Alas, mark now the death of D'narg Glittertunnel, dwarven rogue of loose morals, wonderful lockpicking skills, and total cowardice. But who would have expected the very ceiling rafters to have been animated objects? One of the confounded things grappled poor D'narg as he was searching the...

You could let Escape Artist work for getting out of a grapple. It might already, for all I know - it makes sense. But other than that, I think the system works the way it is. Your BAB is included, which would cover knowledge of wrestling moves, joint locks, and pressure points. And STR is...

From the depths of its pool, Dawn contemplates divinity. After much thought and experience, he is enlightened. He feels that his god has granted him a new power. Eagerly, he stretches forth his consciousness to activate this new ability. Wait? What is this? A powerful war horse has...

My "dungeon"-type adentures generally consist of a vague, scribbled map with a few notes, and sometimes some monster stat blocks printed out from eTools.

My cousin, looking through the old Monster Manual, and never having encountered the world elsewhere, pronounced "unique" oon-quay.

I think it's in the PHB, under "gaining a level." It tells you the order in which you do things. It makes perfect sense that you don't get the feats or skill points for a level until you've actually taken that level. But I guess some people try to weasel around that in some way - but I can't...

My house rule (just for reference) is that, when you originally roll up your character, you have to come up with a history and character concept. This need not be longer than a few sentences (for the creatively disinclined). Class and PrC levels are simply packages containing certain skills and...

Without any specific guidelines for what is compatible and what isn't, we're left with DM fiat. One might say that a Holy Unholy Longsword would be obviously incompatible, since it deals negative levels to both good and evil wielders, but it's actually a perfect weapon for the enforcers of...

Dude! That's like dropping Eeoyre off a cliff. It's just wrong.

It's loosely based on a previous word. That doesn't mean it follows any rules.

Correct. Though I always assumed this was common sense.

Webster pronounces it "Quick-sot-ic," rhyming with exotic. http://www.webster.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?book=Dictionary&va=quixotic&x=19&y=10
