I'm sure they'll give Psions more PP in the revised version, because Bruce Cordell (the designer) has already given more PP in his Mindscapes psion variant. Interestingly, all of the above classes have less PP than the mindscapes psion, who has 265 PP at 20th level.

I've just decided on my Geasa. "If ever a lying word should pass your lips, your final breath is soon to follow." In other words, he must never say something that isn't true. He can be evasive, vague, or deliberately misleading, but everything he says must be true. For example, if he hears...

Does the magic rating affect spells/day and the like, or does it basically allow caster levels to stack for determining spell effects and SR penetration? How does the gestalt character variant work with multiclassing and prestige classes. I could see it becoming very confusing if every level...

I quite agree, the plot was clumsily handled. It certainly wasn't a great novel, but the interesting ideas in it and the quality of the language alone would have made it a decent first novel IMO. Maybe we just have different standards of 'mediocre'. I've certainly read novels that were a lot...

Daddy likes. :D Do they have the same number of spells known as a sorcerer?

How does the spontaneous divine casting work? Can it be used for any divine caster, or is it a class of its own? Does it basically give the caster a limited "spells known" list like a sorcerer, which they cast using the same spells/day as in the PH?

You could take that even further, and discuss how quality isn't determined in a vacuum, but emerges from expectation and context. Pattern Recognition wasn't a mediocre novel, it was quite a good novel, but when judged against Gibson's other novels it pales on comparison.

Sounds wonderful. I would like to alter the spell list somewhat, to remove the spontaneous 'conjuring of animals from thin air' and many of the elemental 'boom-spells', and replace them with more curses and enchantment spells. Some of the elemental spells can be made to fit the setting, with...

The non-magic classes could be added in with little or no problems. I also think that the magic classes could be added in quite safely, but only if they are kept seperate from D&D magic. In other words, let players play AU spellcasters, but make them take only AU feats and spells, and don't let...

Green Ronin's Witch might be what you're looking for. It's essentially a sorcerer with more skills and a different spell list that features healing, enchantment, shapeshifting, and nature spells. Unearthed Arcana, which comes out in a week or so, has a variant class called the "cloistered...

If you look carefully at the License page of the web enhancement, you'll notice that Mutants and Masterminds is given credit for... something. :D

I think I would want to be an elven OA shaman (in 3.0), with the Hero, Spell, and Travel domains. I would want to be a healer, but shamans also have decent skills, martial arts feats, and get spells that enable them to polymorph and feel completely refreshed on one hour's sleep. Either that or...

Do you have room for one more player? The idea I have for a character is akin to Gwydion from the Mabinogion. A warrior who has magical abilities because of his supernatural heritage. Not D&D flask-boom FX, but the kinds of powers you have in the celtic folktales: shapeshifting...

The material that the mecha structure is made out of gives a bonus to defense, in addition to determining the DR and hit points. It's on page 38.

Not especially. I'm struggling through making my own. Do you have the Mecha Crusade supplement? If not, you may be able to find one online. (Normally I'm very opposed to pdf piracy, but in this case, where the magazine is out of print, it's not quite as harmful). I'm making a Smart Hero /...

Out of curiosity, what sort of character are you making Ravon? I'm waffling between a couple of character concepts, and I want to make sure I don't overlap too much with anyone.

Interesting. How does that work with multiclassing? Does the character get full HP for only his first 10 character levels, and then gets the fixed number/level after that? Is there a way for the character to get his 10 hit dice from his 10 'best' class level HD, as some people have suggested...

Alright then. Where is that feat from? Is it a Technomage bonus feat? I have a few questions about the setting. Is there a one world government, or is the Earth Alliance more like the UN, taking talent from all the member nations? What languages are common in the Earth Alliance? What...

That's probably my single favorite article. Drawmij's Instant Death (Drawmij, wherever he is and whoever he is, dies, instantly, with no saving throw). Detect fire (Range: touch). :D My other favorites are the article about the Deryni and expanded 1e psionics to fit that setting, the NPC...

Thanks. Now I just have to think of some character ideas. Would a UA Technomancer suffer arcane spell failure while piloting a mecha?
