    What's a bard to do? (PrCs, feats, vocations...)

    I'm thinking about a new bard I'm in the process of creating, and in pondering where he might go in the future, I'm sort of at a loss. The game is medium-high magic and fantasy, set in a homebrew world. The world is composed of floating islands, and there are airships and beasts of burden going...

    What's the strangest house rule you've ever heard of?

    Play someone a lot like you? Well, I think it could be fun if you used a standard metric, like point buy or maybe dice rolling and then assigning to stats. More like "Modeled on yourself" than "Play yourself" but then again, this was in a fantasy world where one guy was a wizard.

    Apology Sorry I've been not replying at all, but I don't think it will work for me to keep playing. I'm finding that I am not motivated to post, and I think it just doesn't work for me. Nothing wrong with the rest of you, or the game, and I did have fun, but I think it's not what I need right...

    "I'm going to go check out that site, see if we can figure out what happened or where they are headed." Winter goes back into Radiation form and flies toward the area he was looking at through the plants just a minute ago. He'll get about 15 feet off the ground as well, and look for prints...

    Beyond Freedom (M&M PbP) Issue #1 - Loves Lost?!

    Winter will describe what he saw, and then try to pinpoint the location in his mind and prepare to teleport there. "Crap. Looks like they got away with some sort of machine, probably into a time portal or something. I can go and check out the scene, see if they left anything, but I think...

    Winter asks, for a second time, "Can anybody figure out what's on this device? I think it might belong to one of the ones who disappeared, but I'm not sure. I found it inside..." Winter then concentrates for a while, looking around through green eyes to see if any trees or other plants...

    Beyond Freedom (M&M PbP) Issue #1 - Loves Lost?!

    Winter gets a hold of the PDA by going corporeal again, then makes it back down to the rest of the group, looking after the villains and doing a quick head count. Anybody still unaccounted for? Any suspicious sights or sounds in the area that deserve attention? "I found this among the rubble...

    "So what is this Compiler? I guess we need to try to track them down. Anybody know how to follow the ones who flew or blinked out of here?" Winter will finish searching, going through carefully to make sure there are no bodies or injured. He will then help guard, or pursue the villains by...
