There is no "underdark" per se that I've seen. There are underground dwelling creatures like the hejkin though. There is no mention of the Far Realm that I've seen. The Astral Sea is there. It is extraordinarily hard to get to, and it is basically abandoned. The astral dominions are ruined and...

What races are considered to be cannon in the setting now and what is the backstory for the tieflings?

I bow before you good sir. I was hoping WotC would do a quick conversion sheet or update the monsters in the compendium after the rule change but they have done neither. On behalf of those of us who don't have the time to figure out the conversions I thank you. :) *bowing deeply*

When do the premier stores get it?

The only power sources in athas which are generally respected are martial and psionic. Primal power users tend to be crazy nutjobs who are tolerated if they make themselves useful. Preservers survive by mimicing one of those types or not casting when they can be seen. In the setting, preserving...

That's correct. I really have no idea what point he is trying to make either.

@ Kingreaper. It was muddy to start with. You can't make it worse.

The DM better provide a credible alternative then :)

I must admit, I can't see why people have problems keeping track of conditions. People have already pointed out the newfangled concept of writing things down. I use a netbook computer, a dry-erase board, or a piece of paper. The notecard idea works fine as well. I DM on a big dry-erase board I...

Truthfully, it is well worth my money to me. It makes both my DMing and my playing so much easier. I have the monster builder and the character builder loaded on my netbook and I barely need anything else but dice and minis. The monthly fee is well worth it for the weekly work that the monster...

Crystal weapons bug you more than swords made of solid obsidian?

What is it with lizards and bugs wearing loincloths? The harness makes perfect sense, but what are the bugs trying to cover with a loincloth?

Yes, swordmages (especially eladrin) have quite a few teleport powers and they usually do have "teleport" listed as a keyword. Some teleport you, quite a few more of them teleport someone else (an ally or an enemy). I believe warlocks have a few teleport powers and would get good use from...

It is self-explanatory. Teleportation powers are those which have the teleportation keyword. Tzarevitch

:o Crap, you're right. Thanks for letting me know both of you. I had been running my npcs, in the game I DM, assuming fighters could stop them from shifting. Goes to show you what happens when you ass-ume. :) Tzarevitch

I am not sure the value of this tactic either. If the fighter has you marked, he will simply hit you and stop you from shifting. If he doesn't have you marked he can, crawl or quickdraw a polearm, or throw a hammer if he still really wants to hit you. If he doesn't have you marked however, he...

It could be read that way literally, but it is pretty clear that is not what was intended. Tzarevitch

In reading this thread, I am wondering how many of you actually play a swordmage or are even that familiar with one before making comments on how OP the property is. I play a swordmage. In fact, I AM the swordmage in Cignus' game and I don't even have the property yet because it is so godawful...

One of the types of Brain in a Jar undead in "Open Grave" has an attack just like that. It steals a healing surge and inflicts the surge value as damage to another target. Tzarevitch

That's because so many of the Dark Sun books/adventures trully sucked. And I say this as a fan of Dark Sun. The Planescape adventures tended to be of much higher quality and they show up second hand far less often. :( Tzarevitch
