    Vote for the unofficial DnD Mascot!

    No idea how that is happening. Damn people and their inferior views! Vote Beholder! It's the right answer A dragon may be generic fantasy but a beholder makes it D&D It is the same deal with magic Fireball is generic fantasy but magic missile makes it D&D

    What would be the Iconic DND monster/character/NPC/thing or the DND Mascot?

    The beholder, of course Nothing else quite says D&D like it

    Quick question: Psions have no problem with armor?

    Nope, you have it right. Armour only hurts the arcane

    Parallel threads - parallel games.

    That sounds fairly cool I'm currently running a game about a world where the Red Moon which ferries souls to the netherworld has stopped appearing. The game has only just started and as it is in PBP form, it is rolling rather slowly (with it still being in it's first scene. Athough hopefully at...

    Atom's Last Poll: 3.5 Fanatics ONLY!

    Yeah, I would and do. Although I usually try and persude the DM before hand to use the updated rules

    Power Components

    A brief flick through my Eberron CS reminded me of these wonderful little things. Optional (and expensive) components that give a spell the possiblity of a little extra boost. Small details like this are things which I really do love. So, I was wondering wether anyone had crafted a large list...

    DUH DUH DUH! Re: Monsters and NPCs

    and yet to look in the AD&D MM you wouldn't see "average" stats for a monster bar intelligence. This was very annoying If I need the Charisma or Wisdom of some random creature I can just open a book, back i nthe old days it wasn't so simple due to lazy designers

    The Great Debate: 3.0 vs. 3.5

    but 3 is just an unrefined version of 3.5 Like drinking cheap gin when you have a choice between own brand and Bombay Sapphire

    Core rules only for character designs?

    It depends entirely on the concept Some fit snuggly within the core rules while others need little tweaks (either from supplaments or a kind DM)

    DUH DUH DUH! Re: Monsters and NPCs

    One of the things that annoyed me endlessly about AD&D was that the only stat every monster was given was Intelligence. I love that D&D finally sorted itself out and statted everything. In most situations in though it isn't exactly needed. When a statless NPC suffers ability damage or needs a...

    D&D Basic Game - anyone has it?

    I don't think it is aimed at us. The game is simple enough to teach a complete new comer if you have a reasonable grasp of the rules. The basic set is for the player who wants to gather some friends and have a crack but finds themselves intimidated by all the books

    The Great Debate: 3.0 vs. 3.5

    Given the option I can see no reason for anyone to play 3 over 3.5 As for ad&d, I think most agree that it is better best forgotten

    Favorite Beer?

    Hoegaarden, I'll never pronounce it correctly but I do love it. Leffe makes a nice change too Real men drink wheat beers and none of this lager/stout/bitter/ale crap ;)

    What LA are a half-celestial's stat boosts worth?

    Those are far too exciting for just +1, but you'd be sold out going +3 or higher (nice stats are lovely, but not so useful alone) +2 seems pretty much bang on I think I vaguely recall hearing of a house rule where +3ECL (I may have that number wrong) bought you straight 18s in the base stats...
