It's in the second Creature Collection, I believe. The Creature Collection's had a few child-like monsters.

Creature Collection Revised, while it didn't get rid of all the warts and knobs from the original Creature Collection, is still an improvement and worth considering - it all depends on how many monsters you may use out of the original Creature Collection. If many, pick it up. If only a few, it...

I'd revise that to say "Everyone is an athiest when it's time for the cleric to cast raise dead." After all, what gods-fearing sort wants to come back from eternal bliss or insist on dragging other people away from it? Well, excluding jerks, of course, who want to drag everyone away from it...

Well that, or, you know. Breeding until the distinction between humanity and cylon no longer exists. Of course, that situation is problematic to say the least. But it's certainly a better solution than genocide and, for that matter, gets around that whole, "If we just leave you alone, you'll...

God really would play dice with the universe.

When I was young and foolish, I paid little heed to a review before putting money down for a book. While I'm still a little young and foolish, it's not quite so bad. Which is to say, I make it a point of reading a review before buying anything these days. If I can get my hands on a product...

It's quite clear. If you grossly violate the code of conduct or commit an evil act, you lose your paladinhood. If you only do some minor misdeed or perform a chaotic act, nothing happens. Well, except a minor alignment shift - that, if allowed to progress, will result in becoming neutral good...

If it's morally wrong, that right there defines it as a paladin-stripping event. Paladin's shouldn't follow that whole "Ends justify the means" thing. In response to the original poster, though: I see that sort of lie more a chaotic act than an evil one. Code of conduct doesn't say violating...

Eberron's presentation, thus far, is about the only one I can stomach. Crystals, pseudoscience and shades of evolution have little place in my typically presumed creationism-based worlds where the sun revolves around the planet and the stars are likely nothing more than a reflection of the...

No, that's Reputation in action. That's a response cultivated by approximately 10 years of actings as Gotham's defender, where the criminal has heard a plethora of stories about the Bat and quite possibly met up with him on a few, ill-fated occasions. It's not a cold response that Batman can...

Well, it can't just be any old place. A barony is right out, what with Strahd being a count and all.

No it doesn't. It's like thrusting up a giant, copper rod during a lightning storm. There's no lightning in the rod and no magic in the structure. One simply attracts the other. One from the sky, another from some magically active plane. The presumption that magic's required to make these...

A first level wizard with a solitary rank in Knowledge (arcana) has at least a 45% chance of identifying the dragon, assuming a 15 Intelligence based off the standard point buy. That's not "ridiculous." That's "completely reasonable." And it's not like the pseudodragon fills a niche like, say...

Right. We'll probably just see the cover to the comic as it's getting read by the kid and perhaps three or so lines of dialogue between the kid and the vendor, just enough to care at least somewhat about them for when the big to do happens. I see about all of two scenes total taking place at...

The first season was on HBO. I only caught the Patrick Stewart episode, but it was positively delightful. I don't watch much TV and came in on just the tail end of repeats, but do hope HBO starts showing it again - second season and the first. It wasn't the sort of thing to catch my attention...

I'm with Turjan. Denev's always struck me as a Gaia figure - she is the earth and is not only a parent to the gods, but also the titans, effectively the source for all things. However, were I to give her an actual resting place, I'd probably go with the Ganjus.

Ah, but elves still drink. They can still take hallucinogens or otherwise get drugged up. They can still, quite consciously, look at melting wax, look at a clock, and meld the images together, after a fashion. They're still affected by hypnosis. They can be knocked unconscious or otherwise put...

Rather than make elves a level-adjusted race, I typically just assume the average elf comes in around level 8-10 in comparison to the typical level 2-3 human. Seeing as how ridiculously fast PC's tend to gain experience and levels, anyway - with many campaigns going from level 1 to 20 in the...

Batman suffers from many a crap writer and his previous super power of being a Super-Jerk didn't exactly strike my fancy. But the rough core of Batman, which DC seems to be steering back to, is my favorite comic hero. I like the idea of a non-powered, but particularly resourceful, intelligent...

Some of you may be familiar with my character. Goes by the name of Mary Sue.
