There are many similar rules like this: - Action Points (D20 Modern) - Fate Points (some Middle Earth d20 Conversion) - Courage Points (Decipher LotR RPG, non d20 but similar) - Force Points (Star Wars d20) The reason for which I like Force Points while I dislike things like D20 Modern's Action...

deadline ? The deadline has been changed to the end of september ? or, while the true deadline remains 1st Sept (or somehting similar) there is an additional deadline at the end of september for possible latecomers ? or nothing at all ? It would be really nice to have an ordered list of all...

I really like the idea, but I there are some things that I don't understand. You are only providing a list of herbal mixes, and a list of generic herb types, but not an actual list of herbs, are you ? Plants with A+ and A- (for example) should be treated as same (that is, a plant usable to get...

Interesting, I like it. Maybe you should specify better the secondary effects (how long they last, what's the Str bonus in Bull Rush and so on)

Considering the fact that he could have achieved the same by using two move actions instead of one I think it's ok, but I won't allow him to tumble forwards, get the item and tumble backwards with a single move action. Also, I'd make two checks, one for picking the weapon (maybe DC 20, but also...

I thought that especially the bards who focus on artistic performs needed a right knowledge skill for them. In the real middle-ages and renaissance usually the artists had a very good knowledge of preceding artists and artworks, and no other D&D skill could be used in substitution (IMHO bardic...

I have made a race of winged elves with the following stats: * +2 Dex / -4 Con (frail) * flight 60 (average) only with light armor/load. Also, at least 15ft of space is required (due to wingspan) to fly (thus is usable nearly only outside) * can't use large weapons (except longspear) while...

In these months I have made a long (32) list of pregenerated character templates (suitable both to PCs and to NPCs). For each character I give a statblock for the 1st, 2nd and 4th level stats. After some editing I decided to post it here (not sure if this is the right board, if it is not please...

I started with larget lists, but I found the problem that for more restricted domains (such as Light) I found it difficult to have a good number of spells (using the PHB only). And so I reduced the number. Thanks for the suggestion (actually this is what I already do). I usually go +1 lvl...

In the standard D&D clerics tend to ve very less focused, even with the domans: many times they will do always the same things, cast the same spell and the only difference is the shape of the holy simbol and a few spells a day. Now, here is my idea: the aim is to have a divine caster that is...

Good Idea. I might use them for my Light domain.

Nice spells. Maybe Light blast is a little too good: same damage as fireball and in a smaller area, but lots of creatures are resistant to fire, and against a small number of enemies (for example inside a dungeon or a building) the smaller area of effect is not a great loss. For the Wiz it...

well, as described they seem a little weak. Maybe you could have something similar to force points in SWd20: instead of a simple reroll, reroll with a number of bonus/penalty d6 that depends on the level. (for example 1 dice/4 levels) That would give you a better chance (a plain reroll isn't...

The full WP/VP system from Star Wars is deadly in D&D: 1) a character has about a 5% chance of begin killed every round by every monster at higher levels (natural 20 ... then the 1st attack of monsters usually hits anyway, and usually a monster does at least 20 damage, that is enough) 2) A...

I think that 1st level is ok With a greater range maybe 2nd level I agree with Judas: you don't need to have it affect enemies also

You could place some big evil thereso that the players have to run away ... fleeing in a large, unknown ancient building while being pursued by some evil (and possibly really scary) critter could be cool, expecially if you leave multiple wayouts and possiblities for clever tactics (for example...

You can simply let the character decide the opponent against which the dodge bonus works at any time and not only during his turn (that is what I do: easier to remember; it usually goes to the first creature that attacks the PC). In this way it becomes a little stronger and, in case the PCs are...

In Decipher's LotR RPG (using the CODA system, that is similar to d20 but with some important differences) these skills are grouped ad Observe and Stealth, exactly as you wrote. But this happens also on many other skills, that have "subskills" (called specialities) and you still can be better at...

I didn't read through all the spell list, but I'm not sure on some of them, like summon Monster , Rope Trick, Leomund's Tiny Hut: they seem a little too artificial to be cast simply by begin very well focused with positive/negative energy ... but this is only my opinion What spellcastig...

But if you havd to choose between a Wiz12 or a Sor9/Wiz3 you wouldchosen the Wiz12, I think. That's why spellcasters usually don't multiclass (except for PrC that give some spellcasting level increases) Actually the true creature I was going to give sorcerer levels is an Effreeti, the succubus...
