    what has your occupation brought to your game?

    Occupation Network Admin, I bring a total disregard for anything living. Education Artist, sometimes someone will get a nice picture of their character, usually a 3D model rendering as I dont use pencils or paint anymore.

    Holy Avenger and Dispel Magic

    I'd rule that it was only against 'Evil Magic' sort of like the old 2E Inquisitor kit used to have.

    Give it a split personality :) 1-10 Mild mannered crooner with +4 charisma and +8 to bluff skill 11-20 Tourette's Syndrome Disco dancer with +4 to charisma, +8 to intimidate and the ability to cast Otto's Irrisitable dance on its wearer once a day if it gets told to "shut up!"

    What degree of disclosure does your group have between characters?

    I got away with playing a character no one knew much about, quiet, innoculous little type, who tended not to be overly forceful or charming. Just a little elf fighter-wizard of no particular sub-race with a sabre, robes, big floppy hat, kinda poor and a really 'meh' collection of spells who was...

    I need Elf jokes!

    What do you call a party of elves entombed in the Temple of elemental evil? A good start Whats the difference between a cart full of rocks and a cart full of elves? You cant unload a cart full of rocks with a pitchfork

    Staff of the Magi

    No, cant do that otherwise it crumbles to dust at 0, I know how many are left in this one so its not my main concern. Think I found out with divine intervention or because I had it as a 'Signature' item back in 2E and spent proficientcy slots on it. Most of the artifacts and what-not seem to...

    Master Alchemist Delivery System

    The staff-sling that Kender use in the Dragonlance setting might be the go. 5ft long stick with a fork in one end, sling between the fork and give it a range increment for a 1pd object of about 20-30ft.

    Mass Combat Rules?

    Slaine D20 has a mass combat system, havent used it but it looks like it would work ok.

    Would you Regularly play a Half-Elf if they get tweaked in 3.5?

    I made up one yesterday having not played one in 10 or so years, first H/E character Ive done in 3E and it seemed ok. Its not 'uber' by any means but then again its not going to wreck the GM's game either in terms of balance.

    Who's your favorite D&D/WOTC artist?

    Most influence to me was Brom, but Jeff E and Larry where all time classic artists I've enjoyed

    Staff of the Magi

    Looking at it, I think about the only way I'll be able to bump up the DC's either for a duration or permanent effect is to modify the staff with an epic level spell. Probably have to make up a specific seed for it as well and with any luck might be able to get the DC's into the low 20's or so...

    Staff of the Magi

    Thanks for the errata Hmm, most things these days I throw a DC24 spell go 'bling' at anyway. So much for an artifact that I had to go through hell for and nearly got me killed 3 times trying to keep. Guess I'll keep it for the sentimentality, 'buffs' and utility spells just like my poor old wiz...

    Staff of the Magi

    Was looking through my long running character's list of bits to try and improve the wizzies firepower and I used to use my staff of the magi quite a bit in 2E with the fireball and lightningbolt when everything else dried up. Except, they kinda suck. DC13 on both of them? Most 5th level PC's...

    I want more Vile!

    I'd agree with AEG's Evil and Undead as being highly recommended. If you can still find a copy, dunno if its still being made but 'Kult' was a good dark-horror RPG back in its day that you could yoink a lot of ideas out of.

    At what age did you start gaming?

    I grew up out in the sticks so I didnt start playing RPG's a lot until I was 19 and at uni with some flatmates. Before then a friend had some 1E D&D stuff and Shadowrun we used to stuff around with that a bit and quickly switched to 2E D&D and 2E Shadowrun after we moved towns when we found out...

    no cleric? (my players stay out)

    Hey Im not telling people how to make up characters but its like anything thats had a bit of imagination done to it can turn out to be enjoyable. Clerics and Druids make great second rank fighters up next to or flanking with the main melee players, thumping away or shooting arrows. Soon as one...
