SumatraPDF, Firefox, OpenOffice. I keep it simple.

I prefer the Out-of-Game formats. I think part of it is because I see that as how it really is, but with anything IC, you've got to take with a grain of salt. consider any recount by an in-game persona to be an unreliable narrator. I am not going to take anything as truth that Thogg the Explorer...

Anything by Za Frûmi makes me think of Orcs. Mostly because they speak in Black Tongue in their songs :P <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/NcWsoF-6DPQ&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param...

I agree with all of this, and in addition to it is that I really love the world they are creating. There is something about Golarion that I find irresistible. Its a lovely blend of new and old ideas. The Monstrous PCs thing mentioned above is the only thing so far that has left a sour taste in...

Not sure if this is the right place for this. My group is meeting on Tuesday and I dont have a dungeon ready for them. They will be going into a gnomish crypt, but I cant find anything comparable that will work. Does anyone have any good suggestions for published dungeons/modules that are for...

I agree with Mudita being the opposite of Envy, but also following the difference between internal/external, in a D&D game I think Altruism would be a better opposite towards Envy. It is a more externalized thing that requires action, rather than merely positive thought.

That gives me an idea of sci-fi weapons that are solar-powered, or some similarly slow-charging mechanic, and using eternal wands to simulate them.

I was first introduced to D&D by my babysitter. Best. Babysitter. EVAR! Though I didnt actually first play it until the Pools of Radiance series and the Savage Frontier series for the PC. Maybe that's why I'm still a fan of FR after so long? Though before that there were games I played on the...

In 3.5 I was drawn to substitution levels for pre-existing, as they are far more of a plug-and-play mentality that creates a lot of variety and unique combinations.

In my gaming group (mostly 3.5), friendly fire was A-okay, though there tended to be a few unspoken rules: 1) Its fine to beat the crap of the barbarian or fighter that is mind controlled 2) Its ok to fireball the rogue or wizard's familiar (improved evasion FTW) 3) Its okay to color spray the...

Probably the same way any of the various papercraft gaming terrain is out there, ie: The Official WorldWorks Games Store!, Exceeding Your Expectations One Game at a Time or Stones Edges - Free Samples Fold along dotted line, put tab A into slot 1, tab B into slot 2, etc, etc. Heck, just look at...

Ditto this. MAY-LAY as a descriptive word, and used in every-day life. MEE-LEE as a game term. "I don't have ranged weapons, I'm specialized in MEE-LEE, so I've got to get close to participate in the MAY-LAY"

As people already mentioned, his low Charisma score already covers his social ills, not to mention the Aloof quality, which it sounds like this wizard would certainly have. Honestly, I'd love it if my PC wanted this instead of a feat that boosted their Will save. (Cause seriously? Just Ego Whip...

I was about to ask if Baldurs Gate counted. :D

That makes one... lets see if there's any others. 8)

I am seeing if there is enough support for me to DM a PbP game using the Fantasycraft system. No specifics yet, though I'd like to try something beyond the typical D&D adventure, to push the system and see how versatile it is. So if you have Fantasycraft and are interested in participating in a...

Sorry to hijack the thread, but Ive had a hard time finding enough interest in a Fantasycraft PbP game on my normal stopping grounds. If anyone has an idea or is interested let me know :)

Honestly, in my experience it is used essentially as a way to delay/seperate someone from the combat. In which case, it is very weak. Why? Because Force Cage does the exact same thing and is a level lower, also no save.

How is this different from a fight in 3.x with some zombie commoners (CR 1/2), a few Plague Walkers (CR 3), and a Mummy (CR 5)? I dont think I fully understand why it breaks your suspension of disbelief.
