Exactly. And it's not really that hard to take the rope into consideration. Just require some weight close to the lever in order for the lever to do whatever it does, trap or open the door. Sure, it would make it a lil easier to find, but since the master trapfinder didn't find it while...

The use of spells for the pulling of lever/opening of doors that the rogue is 99% sure is untrapped is unrealistic. What the heck? Does the spellcasters only memorize spells that can do that, and rest every time they are out? Or does the party spend all their money on wands of Summon...

'Tis alright, I'm leaving for Montreal tomorrow morning. Will be there until late september 2nd.. While I will have net access there, I won't be doing much internetting..

That's all well and good if I'm the DM. But I like to play too! And I'd be miffed if I have this dwarven fighter who learns about the Order of the Dwarven Guards, who are awesome at defending schtuff, and then learn that no, I can't join them because they magically know that I haven't taken...

When I worked at the supermarket, we constantly sold Pepsi and Coke product at a loss. The price on those, even though they are cheap, is often what makes people decide what store to go to, so you end up making more money even though you lose about a dime on each. Then again, the store did get...

Is mine from one of the two separate and unrelated dwarves in the two separate and unrelated Dragonlance novel? No. Is it from that werebear of the same name in a David Eddings book? Nope. Is it from the former Israeli PM? No. A misppelling of the democrat senator, Barack Obama? no! From...

With such an house rule, I'd have no problem with "secret" PrCs.

In a perfect game world, it would work like that. And if pre-reqs for prestige class were less strict, made more sense, allowed for substitutions.. It would work. As is, in too many cases you might as well ban them as to do that, since you'll get pretty much the same results.

Well, in the grand scheme of thing, including trolls or not doesn't really change much, given the sheer numbers of other races I agree "count". The "problem" (it's not really a huge problem to me at all, and I wouldn't bother arguing the point if it wasn't just fun to do) I have is more that so...

Nah you're right. I sorta came to that conclusion myself during my last post, when I realized that orcs didn't speak common (wasn't too sure, actually). But yeah, I do count pretty much all those you listed in that post. Well maybe not trolls, since they're more monsters than a race with a...

I just want to adress this one, 'cause I see it come up often in varying threads, and it boggles my mind. In 3E, you can still fight a beholder at any level. Just like in older editions. And just like in older editions, except for a few specific levels, chances are good it'll be a TPK or a...

Gah. I have a player who would probably seriously consider it, were he aware of them.

I don't mean the dominant cultures, more the ones with actual societies on the Prime. Let's look at the examples. 1-Aboleth. Aboleth speak their own language and Undercommon. This is probably (in my opinion) the best of the four you stated. Of course, they -do- speak Undercommon, and...

Hmm. If I was a BBEG in a game played by some of the posters, I think I'd have the entrance to my real lair openable by a simple, non-hidden, non-magical lever. Then they'd -never- get me.

It's Scarred Lands, so Nightfall will pimp it even if it's irrelevant and sucks in context.

Imagine earth in the middle ages, except thet those weirdos who said they say.. Weird stuff.. Well, you know. There's a lot of worth in saying that it's a call of chtulu game.. Except taht the PCs can actually kick ass. Forget those morons. I kicked ass. It's doable. But it's hard. So...

I voted fair just because unfair seems like the correct response, and I ain't no tiny white rat.

But no one rolled a 20, so that made no sense.

I voted no. If a monk with a roll of 19 failed, I doubt anything but someone rolling a 20 could have succeeded. Anything else ends up being irrelevant.

Yeah, 'cause aboleths and achaierai are really RAW races, with kingdoms and what not. That's the equivalent of saying morlocks and martians (both letter M!) don't speak english. The fact is, all humans, elves, dwarves, halflings, gnomes, half-orcs, etc.. speak common according to RAW. I can...
