How's that? "If you are a monk, you instead deal unarmed damage as a monk 4 levels higher." Assuming a medium character and one level of monk, this would increase your damage from 1d6 to 1d8. And you would not have to spend a feat on Improved Unarmed Strike in addition to getting Stunning...

Mwuuhhahahaa!!! I will curse your thread to 1000 painful hijackings and derailments!

Seems like Improved Natural Attack would stack with Superior Unarmed Strike. Improved Natural Attack is a must-have for monks. I concur with Nifft about taking Swordsage levels with Diamond Mind maneuvers, but I think I would choose human as the race (for an extra starting feat) and take one...

If I'm not mistaken, Intelligent mounts are different as you are not required to control the mount. The size issue is important because a creature much to small for it's mount will not be able to physically impact a mount enough to control it. If the mount is intelligent you ca just tell it...

First, I think that riding a mount two sizes larger than you should not have a penalty, and certainly not -5. IRL human riders are able to handle Asian Elephants without much difficulty. Also, small characters spend their whole lives using instruments designed for medium characters. They...

Are Warforged immune to damage from hot and cold temperatures and inclement weather? Does exposure to the elements cause any negative impacts on warforged bodies? I know that they are affected by the Heat Metal spell, but that produces much higher temperatures than one would experience in a...

Wanderer's Character Sheet Here is Wanderer's character sheet: Male Warforged Ftr1/Clr5: HP 50 Domains: Good, Travel Cause: Searching for a LG or NG Warforged Deity Alignment: NG (I originally thought he would be CG, but as I worked with him some more I discovered that NG, leaning toward...

I'll get my character sheet up very soon. I'm fighting with E-Tools to get everything correct. I'm looking forward to getting the campaign started.

Here are the full stats and a little more background for my character. After covering much of Khorvaire and finding no religion to call his own, Wanderer began to compile a collection of stories about Warforged heroes. He records them in prose, but converts them to a kind of unmetered verse...

I'm definitely still interested. I'll post some more details for you to work with before Wednesday.

I know a game like the one you're talking about. It's called the DnD miniatures game. It is the DnD version of chess and can reasonably be learned in 10 to 15 minutes. It is not an RPG, of course. RPGs are more complicated because they attempt to replicate complicated things. It takes way...

It is required that I add: the Troika If you're interested in semi-obscure references in other languages, San Bao are the Three Jewels of Buddhism in Chinese. Other Buddhist terms of Sanskrit origin: Tripitaka (the Three Baskets) and Trikaya (the Thre Bodies).

Here's more crunchy details on this character. All of this is from either PHB or the Eberron Campaign setting. STR 12 (12) DEX 16 (16) CON 10 (8) INT 10 (10) WIS 17 (18+1) CHA 12 (14) Feats: 1st Mithril Body 1st (Ftr) Two-Weapon Fighting 3rd Combat Casting 6th Weapon Focus: Quarter Staff I...

I'd definitely be interested in your campaign. Here's my crack at a character with loads of RP potential: Wanderer (Warforged Fighter 1/Cleric 5) was forged in Cyre but fought in the Last War as an archer for Thrane. From the paladins of the Silver Flame he learned the value of faith and the...

I am looking for a Friday evening game in Austin, TX. DnD 3.5 Eberron is preferred, but I'm up for anything, really--DnD 1e, SWSE, d20 Modern, True20, etc. Reply here or IM me if you are looking for a player or to start a group.

So if VoP assumes that a PC will get his/her equal portion of the treasure, would it not be possible to simply split that portion equally between the PC and cohort(s)? The PC would then have his "share" to donate to charity and the cohort(s) would have enough dough to buy decent equipment. In...

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I read this differently: Scrolls aren't scribed at a certain level (as potions are created at a certain cater level). The level-dependent features of a spell cast from a scroll are determined based on the caster level of the person reading the scroll, not the...

The only relevant rule here is that the guys using crossbows do not get AoOs. That seems pretty cut and dry. However, even if they did have an AoO, they could not drop their weapons and grapple you because you can't take extra actions on an AoO. It is not an Action of Opportunity. You can...

In Heroes of Horror there is a section on fear effects. It states: "As a general rule, multiple exposures to the same spell or effect do not cause this escalation of fear." So if you use different fear causing spells, then yes you can move someone from shaken to panicked. But not using the...

Thank you for the links. I am happy to play the way the DM rules. I really don't want to be the guy who constantly challenges the DM in every little thing. We're a fairly inexperienced group so issues like this are bound to come up. I'll just tell him about these articles and let him make...
