If a high level monk/EWM has this ability, can he use his full flurry progression, or is this ability simply an extra attack for a -2 penalty?

That feat is from the "How to design a feat" article written by Johnathan Tweet in the very first issue of Dragaon after 3.0 came out. I can't remember the full explanation of its design, but basically feats that give a larger bonus in limited circumstances are balanced with feats that always...

I just recieved credit for sharing the love on the Two Towers extended DVD. Is it an isolated incident, or is there something broken in their system about RPG books.

That's possibly my favorite PrC in the book. It's a 5-level class whose level stacks with Druid for determining wild empathy and wild shape abilities. It has Fighter's BAB, gains +1 caster level at levels 2 and 4, and at levels 1, 3, and 5 gets to choose a special ability from a menu. The...

The Living Greyhawk website has a document with unofficial 3.5 conversions of splatbook PrCs, for use in Living Greyhawk. The conversion of the Sacred Fist includes a number of DR-beating abilities.

How about a Smart/Fast grease monkey. The kind of guy who can fix anything, drive anything, and fly anything. I have a character like this, a middle-aged old-time biker with a white beard and a pot belly (think Gerry Garcia), who flew a chopper in 'Nam and can fix practically anything. (Maxed...

You mean Torillan isn't really an AT-AT?? I'm disappointed. :( Oh well, serves me right for actually using a picture of myself for an avatar. :p

I'd take my laptop (but more because it has years of emails, my own writing, and my school notes, than because of anything gaming). For gaming materials, I'd take all my homebrew writings and stacks of homemade maps. Everything else is replacible.

Shamans are spontaneous divine spellcasters who use Charisma to cast spells. They have the spells/day of a druid, and a spells known list that gives them less than a sorcerer. However, they also get two domains at 1st level (spirit, and one of their choice) and an additional domain every 5th...

There is a great prestige class in Dragon #311 that is essentially a MT specifically designed for druid/bards. It's a 5-level class but could easily be altered into a 10 level class.

If you leave the Druid's spells/day chart as is, and give them a spells known chart, it would probably be balanced. That way they would have less spells/day than a sorcerer or mystic, but lots of innate abilities. Druids would also gain new spell levels one level faster than sorcers and...

Probably not many. They felt the need to write a book about sex in D&D, after all. :D

Tessarael is right, the Duelist PrC is a terrible choice, especially in 3.5. If you want to play a swashbuckling duelist character, there are much better choices for min-maxing. The Bladesinger PrC from the Tome and Blood web enhancement or Races of Faerun, is a great choice for swashbucklers...

Another reason D&D doesn't currently emulate swashbucklers well is the attack action/full action dichotomy. Swashbucklers constandly jump and swing around, but moving in combat is generally a poorer option than just standing your ground and taking full attacks every round. In addition to the...

Normally I would sympathize, but in this case crunch is completely and entirely welcome. We already have tons of RP fluff from those settings in 2e products. What we don't have is anything about playing those settings using the 3e rules.

The d20 Dark Sun druid may be more interesting to you. They're almost identical to normal druids, with the following changes Class Skills Diplomacy is a cross-class skill for Athasian druids. Hide (Dex) and Move Silently (Dex) are class skills. Class Features Proficiencies: Druids are...

Skull and Bones has a damage system that is very reminiscent of Wounds and Vitality, but IMO even better. In it, after you run out of hit points, you take Constitution damage. Hit points themselves return much faster than in D&D, and the amount recovered depends on your main hit die and...

LOL! I read Pattern Recognition about five months ago... right after I read Tigana.

I thoroughly enjoyed the first two, and will be starting Empire of Unreason in a week or two. drnuncheon is right that there are four books in that series. The fourth is called The Shadows of God. I'm currently finishing up Skull and Bones, and reading Zelazny's Dilvish the Damned. Next on...

I would love to see Zelazny's Amber done as a trilogy of movies.
