i think that Nale needs to start paying attention. First he calls Belkar, Belkon and now he calls Roy, Ray. What's up with that? Not exactly the evil mastermind there now is he? Also, I really liked Belkar in this one, "Of course. I give you respect for a nanosecond and what do I get...

I voted "No, I play one at a time" I have played more than one in the past and it is just not as fun. I prefer to 'get into' my characters and, for me, that just is not possible when playing multiple characters. Playing only one character enhances the role playing aspect for me.

Wow. That is an interesting concept. I just may give it a try as well. :) Happy All Hallow's Eve. Remember kids, Nov. 1st is All Saints Day, so make sure to do your best to scare away all the evil demons and spirits the night before!!!

I agree. I found it funny and disturbing at the same time.

I'm getting ready to run STAP so I have been reading over it pretty thoroughly. IMHO it appears to be pretty well balanced in that it will be challenging but do-able if played smartly but deadly if just stumbled and bumbled through. That's how I like 'em. :) Edited for missing words.

There are a lot of good points that have been brought up in this thread. I will go ahead and add my 2 cents. The main difference is that IME D&D is always a social event. A group of friends and acquaintances gathering for fun and comeraderie. Poker CAN be that type of event but often is...

I agree with most of exempts comments. I like this and I like the different specializations. I would think about what to do if the character has already taken the feat that is given as a bonus feat. IE when he gains spirited charge, if he already has spirited charge he can instead take any...

I agree with Frukathka. I would say the Paladin does what is necessary to bring the most good to the most people while causing the least harm to the least amount of people possible. It's the whole, Greater Good concept. I am of the opinion that a Paladin, while he may not like it and may feel...

I agree. Your brain did shut down. :) Dwarf+Halfling could also be a Harf. Halfling+Gnome = I'd go with Home :) Half-Elf+Halfling = Half-n-Half (slang name = creamer) Great! You made my brain shut off too. I'm goin' to bed. :)

Why did I know that quote was from Nightfall before I even looked to the left side of my screen?? Orcus indeed. You need counselling...or maybe just a summoning circle!! :)

Actually Paladins and Clerics are my two favorite classes to play (in that order). My last Paladin started out as the archetypical do gooder / goody two shoes but as he experienced the world (gained levels) he became more and more jaded. He remained a paladin, just quit seeing everything in...

I voted "RAW is where I start, and I modify as needed." As I sit here reading all the replies to this, I see a lot of the same arguments I have seen in several other threads. While I find valid points on both sides, I feel that it boils down to making the game workable and fun for you and your...

Don't Like Too High Stats I voted Yes: I like a challenge. This doesn't necessarily define my true reason why though. I have been known to re-roll a character that has too many high stats. I like a good range of stats with at least 1 low stat (negative modifier). I find this makes for...

My daughter turns 2 this week. Currently her idea of gaming is tossing around a plush d20 and spreading my minis out all over the house. Ah well, it's a start. :)

Didn't see that one coming Huh. Says I am Lawful Neutral Gnome Fighter. Never would've guessed that.

Depends on the Group I used to DM almost exclusively. Recently however, I have joined a group that has several DMs, so I mostly play now. It is a nice change. I voted mainly player but DM sometimes as that is my current situation.

Olaf, I don't have any great ideas for Cornelius discovering he's not real. I do however have an idea (I'll leave it to you to decide whether it's good or not :) ) for what to do when that happens. What about some kind of modified version of the Simulacrum spell that would hold Cornelius'...

Silver Moon Sums it Up!! Well there I was, all set to read through the pages of responses when Silver Moon summed up my feelings perfectly in the first reply. I agree with Silver Moon whole-heartedly. The 'Soul of D&D' is a group of folks who want to get together and have fun playing the game...

I laughed out loud when I read that. What with it just sitting there, right in the middle of all the advice on how to coddle her and bring her slowly into the game. Thanks Philotomy! I do agree with Nyaricus and the others though. Continue with the elf and scruffy. That should be the...

Merric, Sammael beat me to it. I was happy to see both the Eldritch Theurge and the Eldritch Disciple. These both scream Warlock prestige class. I also agree with Sammael about the number of new invocations. I also would have liked to have seen more than 2 pages.
