I prefer to not have the other players know the intimate details of my character. For one, *no one* alive can truly ignore meta-knowledge once they know it. I had this debate with an excellent role-player (one who almost anyone on these boards would classify as such). And when we had one game...

Caber tossing grew from running up and throwing a log one could use to cross a moat or scale a wall (we are talking 10-15 foot walls). They were never used as weapons, nor do they go far even in the hands of someone who has spent years of their lives training to throw them. As a matter of...

My gaming experience is that most people want to play "heores" for the benefits, but start whining when the concept of being a good guy gets in they way of power. Probably explains why so few politicians (of any party) have any priciples if they have risen past the most basic levels of the...

I realized that we were on a sidetrack about the differences between American and British useage, so my reference to where PC is writing was irrelevant. Need more naps. ;)

I believe single quotes are a no-no when "quoting" except when nesting quotes. She was in full rant, "And then he says 'You are such street trash!' so I slapped him!" A single quote is an apostrophe.

Agree 100% with Dimwhit, it is how I always do it, and how I learned it.

Hmm. :\ That aside, we are speaking of Holy Warriors, not Jedi. There is nothing about being a Crusader against the forces of evil that dis-allows hatred for beings that enjoy the pain and suffering of others. And nothing I can recall (note the qualifier) in any Paladin rules that restrict...

I think they are a ton of fun, and beg for a racial paragon class (ala Unearthed Arcana and Arcana Unearthed). And they look good to boot! :)

Heard it used *a lot* for many years, and I can say not a single one of those times was in any way sexual.

I see it as, you are supposed to have a random but equal chance in actions but core abilities/skills/powers are all balanced to a standard model so that everyone gets a fair shot at being a contributor. So in a system where you have point-buy for stats to keep the totality of ability scores...

15' is pushing it, even with a longsword, and the 20' on a mount doesn't even make sense. That said, the idea that a 6' tall creature 'attacks' up to 5' in height is just silly. So I can't brush my own hair out of my eyes? (need to reach 5'10") I would rule that medium creatures can reach *up...

NDA was lifted last week... ;)

'Dead' is such a...relative term, isn't it? :uhoh: I mean, well, in a quantum-state kind of way, yes? :confused: Nevermind, forget I spoke. :heh:

I think I found the loophole... Kel uses a Greatsword, Caerwyn used a Long Sword. That explains the whooping and table-throwing I believe. ;)

Bugaboo.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!!! Oh, I can't wait to see that photo! :D

I have to completely disagree with you here because common sense would go with the fact that adrenaline in your system still affects your heart-rate and other metabolic functions for a time after you are knocked unconcious. It fades over time, but so does Rage (as specified by its duration)...

Hmmm, Rel sounds...different? Must be the coffee substitute. Tastes like bananas.

I think screaming when alone (as opposed to not screaming when near his friends) is utterly reasonable. If he were yelling "A goblin shaman and 3 guards!!! AAAHHHHH!!! Two halls over from you!!!" when 'Feared' I would say it was reasonable to call B.S. and say 'You only yell incoherently.'

I don't understant this argument when it is explicitly stated that bonuses to stats such as Strength are more powerful than bonuses to stats like Charisma. DM's are advised against considering a -2 to Int to be a balance to a +2 to Str. (Although they seem ok with -2 to Str as a balnace to +2...
