I want to know what the best sources are for monster fluff. The edition doesn't matter, but I want to know things like "Do Orcs and Goblins often fight together", "where and how do monsters live and behave" and such. I know that Monster Manuals have information but which editions have the best...

If we were going to you the "What Would Nightcrawler Do" ruling then he would simply negate the space he fell (so he gets damage for 5 instead of 10 squares) since Nightcrawlers teleportation talent does not make him lose momentum. But since that does make them good jumpers I wouldn't frown...

It's quite simple, as I understand it. Temporary hitpoints don't stack. If you used an ability and got 5 temporary hitpoints, and you already had 6 then you will still have 6 If you used an ability and got 5 temporary hitpoints and you already had 3 then you will have 5 now. The Paladin...

Perhaps the skill challenge for Warfare can learn something from the Disease mechanic (which honestly might be in the Top 5 of the best things in 4.0)

I like that. It's as if Elves are so consumed by their woodsy nature that they just don't think or live in the same way humans do but more like a tree or forest does. So they spend centuries perfecting their crafts until they simply change into other things. They become spirits who are...

You could easily make some rules for mass combat (perhaps borrowing some stuff from Warhammer) but there's one little problem with that. Player Involvement Although a funny game was if you allowed each of the players their own battalion to command. You could use skills for boosting your units...

WHO WILL THINK OF THE BOOKS! (really, I hope that he didn't have too much good stuff down there cause that would be a tragedy)

Yes, a very good idea

There you go. The Cleric Power does not come from the Wizard class and therefore does not get to benefit from its properties. It also doesn't work right fluffwise

Do you have a page number? It's entirely possible that it's the characters level rather then the powers level.

This is the description of the Succubus from the excerpt: Succubus Succubi tempt mortals into performing evil deeds, using their shapechanging abilities to appear as attractive men and women. Although seduction and betrayal are their forte, succubi are also practiced spies and assassins...

I've never played it but Zombie: the Coil seems like a nice game. You need to know the rules in the old World of Darkness (old, not the new one) though, some experience in the world might be nice as well.

Wand of Accuracy wouldn't work, it only works for Wizard and Warlock spells.

Sice we're talking about a hypothetical best case character let's not forget the Divine Oracle Paragon Path. It'll allow you a +5 bonus against Orcus (Good Omens) AND allow you to roll your attack twice. Of course if you fail you'll be dazed until the end of your next turn but it's worth a shot.

I think that if you have a nice big encounter with (let's say) 10 minions you might not want to keep track of their damage. Best to just let them die.

So forget everything you learned at school about the order of actions :p (meant in humour)

I'd definitely allow such a thing to cancel or at least weaken the darkness.

It wouldn't be any more game breaking as Scourging Burst for example. The Warlock is supposed to be a Striker with some Controller aspects after all.

I would think that logically magical darkness trumps natural light (although a great source like being outside in the sun should weaken it a bit), since otherwise it would be impossible to use Cloud of Darkness outside in the daytime. Although I think that Drow might not have been able to use...

It's not broken. 1. It's not that much money. By the time you're level 2 you should have earned 145g. It goes up from there. 2. They have one partially because they can't have any spells without a book or rituals. That's why a Cleric gets a Ritual book for free as well. A Fighter needs...
