    The Caverns of Eternal Despair

    You know you're a D&D fan when you slam out 4,000 words on something totally useless and probably stupid*. With that wonderfully compelling lead-in, I'll leave you to tell me how you like it. Focus on the Dungeon The Caverns of Eternal Despair *I don't really believe this, I think its...

    What's the best use of Cyberware out now?

    Factory by Perpetrated After Arsenal (which I loved), this cannot help but be an awesome treatment of fantasy cyberware.

    Are there any Throwing Weapon Master PrCs?

    I'm creating a fighter/rogue character who will mainly use throwing weapons (daggers at the moment), with specific reference to maximising the number of attacks per round. Are there any prestige classes specializing in throwing weapons. Are there any feats that may be of use? I would really...

    Thrown weapons and offhand

    Thank you, thats a more complete answer than I could have ever hoped for and it was very helpful.

    has any body found a decient martalist class

    Definately Beyond Monks, totally melee class with power comparable to a fighter. No supernatural or spell-like abilities at all, just pure damage-dealing smackdown. (although Gargoyle said that under playtesting it is just a little bit less powerful in melee than a fighter, but whatever). And...

    Thrown weapons and offhand

    I'm assuming that two-handed fighting doesn't help with real ranged weapons (crossbows, bows, etc). But if you have the feat can you throw weapons with your offhand? Can you throw weapons with your main hand, take a five foot step and hit with your off-hand? All the feat description says is...

    Characters 1st level but the background is 5th

    I told him that I rolled a twenty, but some people never stop ya know. They always go on and on about how stupid it was, the risks I could have taken, how my name comes from something idiotic, yammer yammer yammer. Makes you kind of think of your own dude as a joke rather than a serious hero...

    Characters 1st level but the background is 5th

    I remember in one oriental game I was playing I wanted to call my character the River Scorpion, and my DM insisted on my needing a reason (the real reason that I have zero Oriental name pronunciation skills) so I invented this story that I had been passing a carnival which was being attended by...

    Shuriken, Rapid Shot, and Rogues

    I was just thinking that since you can throw up to three shuriken per attack, would a rogue's sneak attack damage apply three times or once. And with point blank shot and rapid shot a third level rogue could bluff an opponent and then shoot off six shuriken for a total of 6 + 6 (point blank...

    [Prc] Combat Dancer

    Except that +5 armor and +5 bracers of Armor (the latter of which provide an armor bonus), both cost exactly the same. Since a combat dancer and fighter have about the same armor bonus at the outset (including that +5 bonus) then the combat dancer can just get bracers of armor (which cost the...

    [Prc] Combat Dancer

    Does no one else think that the +4 insight bonus to attacks is a little bit too much? With the additions to AC, this class has almost no disadvantages over a full-classed fighter. And while a class should be a little good, +4 to attacks seems like a huge bonus. While that single opponent in...

    The Artful Borrower, possibly HORRIBLY unbalanced, help needed

    You see, I thought long and hard about balance issues with this class and please let me share my rationale. This class can be taken by a level 6 rogue, and at the 5th level of this class the character will be able to pickpocket just about anyone and anything, disarm people pretty decently, and...

    Powerful PrC Needs Design Help (Long)

    An idea for the Ordeals Instead of challenging the character's will, by having those spirits entreat him and forcing Will saves, why not challenge the player's willpower. Have the spirits offer the player things in order to induce him to give up this course. Have them offer power, like magical...

    The Artful Borrower, possibly HORRIBLY unbalanced, help needed

    EDIT: Hey, if its a horrible piece of mind muck, at least tell me that. If you want a better formatted version, go to the link below. The Artful Borrower A beautiful Prestige Class, tell me if you think it be overpowered. My reasoning is that it has such a focused aim that most PCs would not...

    Is it inherently harder to be a female DM?

    I believe that this link cannot help but be of a unique use in showing one example of male-female interpersonal relationships as they relate to DMing and RPGs...and its damn funny. The Worst DM Ever, Part One

    Should I publish?

    Its awesome, I really loved it. I think you should try to send it off to a sci-fi mag like Analog or Amazing Stories. It is a little short, but they print stuff that short, and it seems futuristic so it should fit in. If it doesn't get published then you lose nothing for trying, but I think it...

    The Charismatic General

    Smiting The power attack, cleave, and great cleave abilities were just so that he could get in there and kill a few dozen enemy soldiers before he has the climactic one-on-one duel with the enemy commander in which he (hopefully) cuts off the commander's arms and beats him to death with them...

    The Charismatic General

    This is an attempt to make a pretty fair game translation of an awesome stereotype used many a time in many a game (mainly because its such an awesome stereotype). Its the Charismatic General, who inspires undying loyalty in his legion of followers. Please visit the link and tell me what you...
