    Do You Prefer 4 Or More Players (+ DM) When RPGing?

    5-10 More collective brain power is good, but too many people can be difficult to control at all times.

    Gestalt Artificer and ?

    I'm the GM for this game. I don't think psionics are broken, I just don't like them. We have some new players so the magic system will be enough confusion for them. Warforged are not available... they don't exist. Any official WotC product will pretty much work, unless its something themed...

    Feats for starting Wizard?

    In a long-running campaign I would do this: Human Wizard specializing in Divination (prohibit: Enchantment, and later Illusion when you become Incantatrix). Increase Intelligence every four levels. 1 - Wizard 1 - Spellcasting Prodigy, (hbf) Improved Initiative, (wbf) Scribe Scroll 2 - Wizard...

    In one campaign (grim 'n' gritty) it takes 1 month to train, minus 1 week per Int bonus. You can train others to your level -3 and can self train at level 5+ in a class. If you want to learn non-basic feats, you must find a trainer that has the feat.

    What's the Most Asinine Character Idea/Concept You've Dealt With?

    Probably mine... Psionic talking mouse (wears a cape and wields a metal toothpick) - dominated a flying cat as a mount.

    Gestalt Wizard problem.....

    I'm assuming you're an elf... I'd go Druid for a little more nature flair or Elf Racial Levels. You could always go Fighter for some extra combat feats.

    A Character Not Needed

    I recommend Marshal or Bard as well. In large groups, these classes are devastatingly effective.

    Ever had a Player Threaten you Like This?

    Standard response: 1) Tell them "shut yer pie hole" 2) Chuck a random die at them 3) Kill their character Granted, we have some slightly odd gamers in our bunch so this might not work for you. It seems like every session we have uppity people demanding things and it usually ends poorly for...

    Serious inquiries only please - 100th level adventure hook and module in development

    It's taking a lot longer to make a 100th level character than I thought it would. :\ I'm making the wizard priority now, the cleric can wait.

    Incantatrix help/opinions

    Regarding the high Spellcraft DCs: take Skill Focus (Spellcraft) How often do you guys use these abilities ? Numerous times each day - especially Extend Spell. This is in an epic campaign with a lot of players though... at least 3-4 other casters usually (counting the not-so-insignificant...

    Serious inquiries only please - 100th level adventure hook and module in development

    100th lvl characters are silly broken. I'll make a wizard and we can duke it out. I'll just add a few levels to the one I played in Dar's campaign. You know... the one he nerfed every session. (ya ya the cleric is coming too) 100th lvl wizards make me giddy.

    How we play the game: Character sheets

    I whip up a .htm file for each character I play. It takes a little time but I prefer it that way. attached .zip file includes: Kinel Ithrood (Ice Tracker 6th lvl - Grim 'n' Gritty campaign) ... has printer friendly formatting Khael Dawnbringer (Cleric 5 / Radiant Servant of Pelor 10 / Sacred...

    ability roll cheating

    Way back in my early days of DMing I had this happen. I've never understood why people feel the need to cheat in roleplaying games. It makes no sense. It's not like you can "win" the game. Once I found out they were cheating I killed the character off and made them roll a new one in front...

    What are good spells for a Sorc to "chain"?

    I've used chain shatter, dispel magic, and fleshshiver. Chain dispel magic + chain shatter is evil, but requires a lot for the result.

    What are your party's combat tactics?

    We play Grim 'n' Gritty rules in a homebrew campaign with little magic. While our tactics are necessary due to the deadly nature of the world, they may not fit in with "normal" D&D groups. Party members (I can't list the exact class/levels because I'm not sure what they are for most of the...
