    The Retaking of Forgehold OOC-4E (Full)

    Someone Scottish, possibly Sean Connery? I'd imagine that dragonborn have very thick and rigid skin in their mouths to protect against their own breath weapons, and as such their speech would sound Scottish or Welsh. Actually, I imagine that their native tongue would sound a lot like someone...

    The Retaking of Forgehold OOC-4E (Full)

    Yeah, I'd noticed the fearsome smite after you mentioned the other two, and fixed it. When I was designing him, I initially was trying to go for a mix of powers that could hit different defenses, but about halfway through I said "the heck with it" and just grabbed what felt right. ;) The main...

    Thanks - I'm still figuring out the system. I'll add that in.

    Not much to add here except that I approve of the Mal's Whedonesque dialogue. Except that Teslayn would never say "can't". :p

    The Retaking of Forgehold OOC-4E (Full)

    Some thoughts on Telsayn. An inspiration to his friends, and a stalwart defender of those who have the courage to stand up for themselves but lack the wherewithal, Telsayn is a Paladin of Bahamut. He's definitely NOT the classic "Lawful Stupid" paladin - he's not above a little skulduggery if...

    [3.5] Most bizarre—yet playable—character concept

    I never got to play him, but during 3.0 I had an idea for a Cleric who had the domains of Knowledge and Madness who was eventually to take the Alienist prestige class. His backstory was that he had been forcibly abducted and recruited into an occult order called the Prisonkeepers, a group...

    I'll stat out a Dragonborn Paladin tonight... I'm definitely game.

    Recruiting: Fighting the Flames

    I'm game. Not sure what yet, but possibly a Tiefling Warlock? I'm not interested in 3.5e, oddly enough...

    Seattle, Capitol Hill neighborhood looking for game.

    I just moved up to Capitol Hill and sold my car, so getting back to the neighborhood late at night when the buses don't run isn't so much fun. As such, I'm looking for games in the Capitol Hill neighborhood - I live on Pike and Broadway. I have mostly played, but wouldn't object to taking a...

    JollyDoc's Savage Tide-Updated 10/8!

    I think JD and crew have already stated their opinion on 4e, and that they won't be going to it. The bit about turning the far realms into a MMO was a piece of snark that reflected their view of the system. ;)

    JollyDoc's Savage Tide-Updated 10/8!

    Not a bump, just a wee little nudge curious about what happened with Mandi... And of course I'm curious about our little Alienist who seemed to have some kind of interest in all this.

    Sagiro's Story Hour Returns (new thread started on 5/18/08)

    I think the idea of Dranko with 9th level spells is a very scary idea.

    Alternate Gaming History - What If?

    My own gaming "what if" is "what would have happened in the RPG world if Steve Jackson Games hadn't been raided by the Secret Service?" I think that's a HUGE what-if - SJG went through years of legal trouble, near bankruptcy, and had to lay off a huge part of their staff for the longest time...

    Giant Robots: Recommend me a system.

    Much love for Dream Pod 9's stuff (http://www.dp9.com) - they're the guys who originally wrote Mekton Zeta a long time ago, then moved on to create Heavy Gear and the SilCore rules. I think they have, bar none, the BEST vehicle creation rules in existence, period. More flexibility AND detail...

    Core Plus Eberron Plus One

    I only get access to my own book. I'm partially asking this because I have no experience with Eberron, and I'm curious what people could pull in from that setting. Heck, I don't even know what the "official" Eberron books are, or why Races of the Dragon would mess with the Eberron setting.

    Core Plus Eberron Plus One

    I'm going to be playing in a campaign starting this Friday. The DM has set the rules for using books as follows: No Psionics. Other than the aforementioned "No Psionics" you can use any single WotC book in addition to the Player's Handbook and the Eberron core book. We have several options...

    D&D 4E WotC announces plans for 4e SRD and OGL

    As someone who is somewhat familiar with how open source licensing works... WotC owns the rights to the D&D intellectual property. They've released 3.0 and 3.5 under the OGL. This doesn't mean that they've relinquished ownership over their property - they can still release it under other...
