Still waiting on the book... don't wait on my account.

Don't wait on me... I don't know how long it'll take for the book to get to me from Green Ronin directly and I'd really like to have a look at it before I finalize my character. So if I'm still waiting by the time Toric is ready to start, begin without me and hopefully my character can be...

I looked there... "Currently Out of Stock" :( I get the feeling Green Ronin didn't print enough copies. EDIT: I ordered directly from Green Ronin, we'll see what happens. :)

Hmm... well looking at the free backgrounds PDF on Green Ronin's site, I think I will go with Aristocrat. Some scandal or tragedy or blackmail (or some combination thereof) caused his fall from the good graces of society into the freebooting life. Or something like that. I'll probably go with...

Well, I wasn't able to find a copy anywhere of the BRCS today. My rough stab at a character concept I'd like to try would be something like Raven... former well-to-do, possibly former noble or merchant turned merc, smattering of arcane knowledge. From what I've read I'm guessing Jack of All...

Great! I will pick up the book tomorrow and try to see what I'd like to play.

too late? I would love to get in on this as I love The Black Company and I doubt I can find enough other people locally to get a game going. I don't have the book yet but should very soon... let me know if I can still get into this game! Thanks!

You are not wrong. :) Chaond and Zenythri are the chaotic and lawful planetouched respectively, from MMII.

Definitely huh? 3.0 DMG p. 168 "Challenge Ratings for Noncombat Encounters" See also: "Mission Goals", "Roleplaying Awards" p. 103 "Rewards and Behavior" is an interesting read as well. Not much in there about efficiently slaughtering monsters though.

Merric, I would play in your game anytime. :)

I think of Intelligence as "mental Dexterity", Wisdom as "mental Constitution" and Charisma as "mental Strength". It's not a perfect analogy, but it works well enough for me.

Two thumbs and two big toes way up! Man, I loved this movie.

I agree (and I mentioned in my previous post) that the duration is a bit much. I would lower it to 10 min/level or maybe even 1 min/level. Against a 14th-15th level cleric, shadows are nothing more than bumps in the road unless they are heavily bumped up (even a Greater Shadow is only CR 8)...

Just looked it up: Bright light 60', dim light 60'. Undead within 60' take 1d6 damage per round. Evil outsiders and undead specifically harmed by daylight take 2d6 per round. Counters or dispels darkness spells of equal or lower level. Duration is 1 day/level. 4th level cleric/Glory...

Yes, don't let the players overanalyze and handwring over the rules. If you want combat to flow smoothly and quickly, have each player ready when it is their turn to act to tell you in plain terms what they want their character to do. Give them a time limit if you like. And then resolve it to...

I think when you say "Steven King" you mean the guy who is actually Stephen King.

Let's see.... In space, I think we had: Superman, Green Lantern, Dr. Light (the woman in the white cape), S.T.R.I.P.E (power armor), Starman, Orion, Captain Atom. Second line: Supergirl, Rocket Red, Red Tornado and Fire. Ground team: Flash, Wonder Woman, Steel and Ice.

from the feat descriprion: Special: Using this ability counts as one of your daily uses of bardic music. Pretty clear it's intended to be a separate ability, not an adjunct to another bardic music ability.

Just a note, AFAIK Hasbro has nothing to do with Atari. The Atari name was purchased by Infrogrames a while ago and to capitalize on the name recognition, Infogrames changed their name to Atari. Atari/Infogrames is a D&D licensee. [edit] I see that Hasbro purchased the Atari name in 1998, and...

My 14th level wizard finds a maximized Scorching Ray to be quite nice. :) Useful when you don't want to use the big stuff to take out some lower powered foes. But I know that's not really the point of this thread.
