Hey, thanks everyone. Not entirely sure why it didn't seem obvious to me to look in Meta, heh.

Uh, I guess by this thread that Morrus made a decision regarding the whole money thing? Is there an announcement somewheres? I didn't see one on the main page..

Mistah Krust, Yeah, the Guide to Hell says stuff about that -- Ahriman's true form is like, miles long. So he has that stashed away where no one can get at it, and he creates avatars to deal with everyone -- so he calls himself Asmodeus, but the only actual being you deal with is an avatar...

Joshua Dyal: It sure does. I just re-read that section last night while looking through this thread. THe background is, roughly, as follows: Ahriman and Jazirian were two mighty gods of Law long ago. They created a lot of stuff, most of creation I think. They had a falling out on the...

See, it's gotta be Demogorgon: he's got tentacles. We all know that the tentacular beings out there can distribute some advanced clobbering: just take a look at Cthulhu, or Shub-Niggurath or mind flayers. Tentacles rule the lower planes! That and he has baboon heads. Baboons are way nastier...

I've heard the woodsman is good, but alas: no WoT and he'll be here any minute ;P Curse his hide for springing this so short notice! I will gander through the forum, though.

First, apologies if this is the wrong forum. I know there are about five million ranger variants out there, but I can't remember where they all -are-, heh. One of my players is interested in an alternate ranger, who doesn't cast spells. The only alt.ranger I can remember is the one from Monte...

Yeah, amen to that. The reviews page was good before, but it's sure great now. Doesn't work too well in Netscape, but hey, I can live with that. So yeah. Hey nonny-nonny and a sis-boom-bah! ENWorld, ENWorld, rah, rah, rah!

BronzeDragon: That was in "Dead Gods", by the good Mr. Cook. It's a great module, I heartily recommend it. Great reading. I dunno who came up with the idea of Orcus being killed by Kiaransalee, but I didn't much like it. At least he shoulda been killed by someone a bit more big leagues than...

THis is kind of interesting and even somewhat relevant! From the Tain bo Cuailgne, translated by Thomas Kinsella, from "The Combat of Ferdia and Cuchulainn": "So that day they took up their two solid broadshields and their big burdensome stabbing-spears and began piercing and drilling each...

Well, these here are, I think, pretty common: (in no particular order) Srinivas, Venkat, Vishnu, Krishna, Prasad, Sandeep, Sanjeev, Rajiv, Ajay, Ram, Raju, Vamsi, Reddy (usually not a first name, I think, but very common in names), Sudhakar, Sunil, Rao, Sai, Rajesh, Suresh, Nagesh, Naresh...

Hey! That must be two somebodies, Mr. I-Recognized-The-Reference. Hee hee hee hee :D

Thus spake Mouseferatu: Yeah! Bring on yer fat, pasty, bloated, cheesey-backed, twelve-sandwich eatin', greasy, goat-face, gettin'-his-ass-kicked-by-Drow, Wand addict demon lord of the undead! Demogorgon gots monkey-rage.

Well, India's a big place -- what? 15 major languages and dozens upon dozens of dialects? Different subcultures may do things differently, since, as I say, I only know a bunch of Telugu-speaking programmers :D Another interesting bit is this: in Andhra, at least, they often either totally...

Just as a note, in my experience (primarily with men from Andhra Pradesh, native Telugu speakers), most Indians have names which -are- names of gods. For example, the two most common names in southern India among Hindus are Srinivas and Venkata -- names for Shiva and Vishnu, respectively. The...

I just voted yes. Not because I care about those features, because.. well, I haven't exactly -missed- them. However, keeping ENWorld running smoothly and without forcing Morrus to take Skill Focus (Begging) and a few levels of Expert to powergame up that panhandling skill is very good :D

"Stop it." Heh, I know that's not all -that- helpful advice, so I'll elaborate: First off, my players don't do this and probably won't ever: they just don't understand the 3e rules well enough for that sort of stuff yet.. I don't think any of them have actually finished reading the player's...

M. Delacroix, From http://www.dictionary.com Slander: 2.A false and malicious statement or report about someone. The other definition, 1., refers to the use of the term in law, and there's been no threats of legal action against gamers, and really.. saying that there -was- any such threat is...

Upchurch, you madman! Stop leering at my wallet! Heh, seriously enough, nice auctions. Got me some James Bond Value Pack action for two whole bucks, woo.

Bagpuss, the mighty catlike pink organism, said: I once asked my mother why the drinking age was raised up to 21. She was a nurse, and saw a lot of people who'd injured themselves while intoxicated, and based on what she saw, the reason was this: They raised it to 21 so that the effective...
