Healer's Lore seems like a good Pragmatist talent, actually, both since they're supposed to be the base line and since better basic healing seems in line with the character of Pragmatists. The Ethoists, though, should get something like Lawgiver's Lore that let's them extend the duration of...

Some really good stuff here. I think that going with alternate versions of the base class features and builds is an excellent approach for our purposes. Wisdom's Lore is a very interesting feature. It'd have to be playtested to ensure balance, particularly the bit where the Kakima can replace...

What of the three queens? Perhaps the defeat of the curse had hidden costs as well, one's which have yet to be paid? I like this, maybe it can be worked in as a way to introduce new areas. But let's say it also has a reactive effect, where the tribes become the greatest evangelizers among...

Agreed. Any chance to talk seriously about Al-Quadim is a chance I'm gonna take. Yeah, they had great ideas for magic that they just sort of left fallow. So there's a lot to work with there. Maybe in the interregnum the culture of magic has developed enough that there are three distinct...

Yeah, they were one of several players on the infertility scheme, but I also thought they had some invasion of the body snatchers plans going down elsewhere. Didn't they have someone in the temple of the Loregiver itself? I think the Brotherhood of the Flame was the most active of the cults...

Over, as in alternate. Well, the Grand Caliph's infertility was a big one, but there were a number of others. - Yakmen conspiracies - The Elemental Wizard Cults - Ghul Lord Threats - The fate of various Unenlightened cults or hinterland Barbarians - Intrigues in the Genie courts - The...

I'm very happy to see it resurrected. I had been thinking about moving the timeline up or over as well. * The Choking Coast - Decades of Drought have crippled the cities of the Southwestern shores. In the Fall and Spring horrible dust storms accompanied by barbarian raiders shut down all...

Right if you're looking for class balance across all of your choices then what you need to look at, currently, are the attribute bonuses. So if you do: Human = +2 any one Minotaur = Strength +2, Wisdom +2 Lizardfolk = Dexterity +2, Cha +2 Stonefolk = Int +2, Con +2 Fighter: Primary: Human...

Or, wait, exactly this, except a home base or political backdrop to the adventure - the whole Lords aspect of 1 and 2e - rather than an evil antagonist sort of situation. The Round Table to your House of Le Fay.

True, but what I failed to get across was the idea that we need a product that describes a single Point of Light. Something you could drop into any PoL world and have it make sense, or, alternately, something you could spin any number of modules off of over the course of all 30 levels. Though...

I'd like a Point of Light setting that wasn't a city. Something like the Shire or Rivendell where you have a broad geographical location that can function as a multi-tier homebase for a mixed race party. If you wanted to make it larger you could do something like Mirkwood or the Nentire Vale...

I've always felt that a good company or employee, working on many opportunities and projects, and keeping within their resources should fail at one project out of five. Certainly, you want to have lots of success, but there is a unique learning curve to failure that tremendously benefits your...

Sounds like a good project. Though without the actual ghostwalk book I probably only have a bit to contribute. I liked the setting a great deal, though. I don't think you have to have the ethereal plane. The feywild and shadowfell are both close enough to reality that they could serve as an...

Wolfgang does Patron projects rather than Ransom projects. I'm being pendantic pointing it out, but I didn't feel like I did a great job with the Patron project I was involved with partly because I didn't understand how participatory it was supposed to be. There are things I like better about...

So, a couple of questions: Will the Players just be picking and then statting out characters from this list? If so it seems like there would be other ways to organize this. Maybe just have a list of gods with kids and class? Then the choice of build is up to the player, if any build is...

Maybe offer a seperate line that could support 4E? Even if it came out at a less frequent pace thatn KQ I know I would support it. I was actually dissapointed that I couldn't contribute to the 5 grand kitty back in the early GSL days. At the least the experience with the Arabian Nights...

Isn't that what you want, though? Tactics? And even that situation the fighter has done what he is supposed to do, expand the tactical opportunities of the party by limiting the tactical options of the opponents. It's not a situation that leverages the fighter's abilities and role to its best...

Well, I finally got a chance to try it out. Here's a brief breakdown on how I think the attempt went, I don't think I have enough data to provide a direct analysis of how well the system itself fit the game. 1.) I don't think I did a very good presenting or running the system. The notes I had...

I'm sad there support for 4E from KQ doesn't seem to be dependable deal. I know I'm not the best sponsor for his projects, LiveJournal just makes me too wiggy to help out much, but I might have been for 4E. I'll probably be converting the Arabian Adventures project into 4E for my own group's...

It's an interesting class but it fails my controller test. To be a controller a class needs three things: 1.) Decent cheap area attacks or other mechanics for reliably hitting multiple opponents - subpoint: Class probably shouldn't fall into the 'Controls the Battlefield' trap with a series...
