Would it make you feel better if I said there's no use in reading it? He's mysterious for a reason.

Updated.

Casey immediately blushes, stammering, “O-our finest wine S-s-sir?” She looks Kikyik over appraisingly, quickly regaining her composure, “I'm sorry sir, but I'll have to see yer credit before I can bother the manager.” Kikyik has nowhere near enough, unless he plans to give up those mining...

I was thinking GP and time costs as I don't like the idea of XP costs outside of item creation and spellcasting, doubly so when XP often comes from killing things instead of doing things (like practing skills).

I'm entertaining the idea of allowing classes to grant actual skill points or circumstance bonuses like avigor suggest, but I'm curious about how to present that in game. Perhaps attending a class vs apprenticing? Costs is my main sticking point. The SRD values skills at (bonus^2)*100 when...

So once the BBEG gets lichified he's casting it every friggin' day!

Physical attributes are the only ones that change with the body. The mind and spirit are connected in core DnD. Knew someone who bit it while playing with a word riding goblin, poor gnome ended up an Orc and nekkid for the rest of the adventure (aside from a blackened piece of wood he used to...

Given that the images are not real it's quite possible for them all to occupy the same 5' space. However, if there were a line of wizards I'd not allow this 'closing your eyes negates the spell' foolishness.

Get improved initiative! Nothing's worse than being a monk walking into a fight and being dropped by a hail of arrows because you couldn't get your shields up in time.

I think that is some kind of gnome greeting.

Jhulae, are you somehow suggesting that 750gp in copper (as much copper as will fit into a bag of holding by weight, not volume) is broken? Honestly, if my players (Here) were to be scrounging for coppers I'm either starving them for cash, or they're not bright enough to pack supplies (which I...

I was surprised that arcane failure didn't state something along the lines of 'An arcane magic user must have freedom of movement in order to create the complex gestures included in their magic spells, thus equipment makes it harder to cast.'

If you or Jhulae find that comment insulting, then tough. Jhulae was insulting with that comment insinuating that I'm somehow an incompetent GM just because I find the idea of a bag of crap hauling weighing so much out of line. Perhap you missed the line, it was: 'So, basically, making a...

Personally I was thinking a competence bonus so that anyone wanting to do so would still need actual ranks for PrCs, and could overrun the skill cap in this way. Though I may allow actual skill points since it is limited to three oft overlooked skills.

Would seem to me that Jhulae thinks that IMC there are Kwickiemarts stocked full of magic bags, or that they come with your box of crackerjacks. Oddly enough there's not.

Casey sees the small customer and runs over to him, "I'm so sorry li'l fella, me an' Ardelle were gittin' a mess together for the folks upstairs, I'll be right back with somethin' fer ya!" She then scrambles behind the bar, searching around before she comes back with a couple of booster seats...

No problem, it's one of my quirkier houserules.

I've been playing with the idea of allowing the teaching of skills I believe are important, but are often underrepresented in games. Thus attending classes at a university is an acceptable way to increase craft, knowledge, and profession skills. What would you do with this idea?

Actually, I'm DMing this particular game (the example was from a campaign I'm in, but I'm looking at this again because it may become treasure for my players).

I'd seen it and thought it had merit, but decided to go my own route with it (and it actually diverts from the other one I'd posted upthread). I took the weight of a normal sack.
