    Building a stealth Gestalt Changeling

    First off looks like you will be going into the Gestalt builds, so you can actually have a situation where you have the best of both worlds for your PrCs. Rogue is always a good Gestalt choice, along with spellcasting as your secondary. You may also gain the ability to really boost up your...

    Strokin' The PCs

    Let's just remember the last time that happened... ((Those who haven't watched but desire to watch The Wire please don't unspoil this...)) . Quite possibly one of the best uses of a 'small part' actor, and also of a child actor. His swagger is legendary for his size :D. Slainte, -Loonook.

    Simple, (hopefully) balanced Vow of Poverty Houserules!

    So the character either has 100 GP of overall, ever cash... Or he has minimum equivalency in magic items. Now, that means that he will be allowed some basic items, not going to ever be able to get above a certain mark of wealth, but you are also going to be pretty far spread for armors, arms...

    Help Me Make the Mage's Hoard

    The ideas so far: Alyster Holden, Master of Spellcraft of the Academy at Altamyri, Demonbinder of the Shah of Zajara, planeswalker and man of means. Women wanted him, other sorcerers wanted to be him, the Sultan of Summoners, the Caliph of Conjuration, a true maestro of the Art. Seventy-five...

    Looking for some advice on my dragon problem

    Clerics shouldn't be able to call down any spell they desire because their gods are omnipotent. The gods provide what they provide... Also, Shivering Touch is the cheesiest spell in any form, much less using it as an instakill on a Big Bad. Also that Mage is going to have to make a touch...

    Help me design this potion!

    Fantastic to hear! The players should of course be encouraged to use the item... Heck, the gold oozes could save them at some point :D. Slainte, -Loonook.

    Help Me Make the Mage's Hoard

    So I've been thinking about some things and after watching a couple episodes of Hoarders and the discussions of Information Hoarding, I really want to make an adventure based on entry into a wizard's hoard. The party has heard that the Mage has a McGuffin of note, and they need to find it...

    (homebrew) Freeform classing ?

    There are rules for classless D&D in... Unearthed Arcana? Yeah, I wanna go with that, for 3.x. Check it out. Slainte, -Loonook.

    Why didn't they make D&D more adult?

    It seems you equate adult with specialization... The real reason why D&D never went adult with mature themes is because a.) it doesn't sell, or b.) ninety percent of people can't hold the plumb when it comes to mature content. Either Mature Content because snickering over the Book of Erotic...

    Is This Unbalanced?

    Yeah... This is one of those problems 'in the box' that really don't come into play. Ever. But, for the sake of argument, let us say that you have a player who for some reason gets to eat their victims brains. Like some sort of Dahmermage they go about, mixing brain cocktails, swilling it...

    Help me hide my mcGuffins

    Why do the essences not have a dual nature? Magic is the manipulation of forces with intent. The following could supply the eldritch 'forces' that the individuals are seeking, along with an item/place where they may be utilized: Abjuration: I'm fine with what you have, though would suggest...

    Help me hide my mcGuffins

    First there are eight schools... And then the red-head stepchild kindergarten that is Universal :). Second... Depends on your ideology on how magic works. Do you want Opposition school makeups similar to 2e, or just the happy-crappy-everyone-loves-everybody form of 3e? Slainte, -Loonook.

    Firearms and alternatives to gunpowder

    Samloyal23: We're talking about a fantasy setting where you are going against conceits and where you have individuals that are working for hundreds of years to improve the item... When looking at rifling I found the following shrapnel round from a Russian cannon: This looks like the kind of...

    Mechanical Arts

    Basic hydraulics bring you earthmoving equipment, piston-based pressurization, hushing and hydraulic mining for their ores, manned entrance-denial platforms using pressurized air cannonade... The possibilities are endless. Also natural-gas bottling leads to the possibility of flame exhaust...

    A Demon by any other name.....

    Demons and devils should be unique... There was an excellent article somewhere that I have now been trying to get someone to look up for me for the last hour* that actually covers making Chaotic Evil outsiders 'unique' due to the flux of the planes. Honestly, if your party will not remember...

    WWII: What should my RPG setting be?

    D20 Modern/Past, Alternity will work well, especially if you use Blood and Guts for the d20 side to give a more military feel and rules for military interactions. Slainte, -Loonook.

    House Fairies!

    Skeleton Weapons and Armor

    More like Necromancy uses negative energy in a way similar to an elemental. The energy binds, snap, crackles, pops... And then you have an object that hits with the object in question. Mindless Warmachine? You're casting a spell to create Fighters? :D Slainte, -Loonook.

    Mechanical Arts

    And they also have the ability to use constant items such as heatstones or perhaps even a sort of light-focusing device to really get it handled. Yes, you can enter through the front gates... You're going to be dealt the damage of a blast furnace when you do :). Also could perhaps allow them...

    Mechanical Arts

    Don't think DaVinci. DaVinci was one man who had 40 years to work up to it, and he didn't have the available materials that these individuals seem to have. What is the actual makeup of the area ecologically? DaVinci worked with what he had because he was just not able to really dig into it...
