    Core Religion Survivor, Round Two

    Your AP history teacher DM'd a game for you during spring break?? The coolness of at least part of your high school experience should be worth keeping L(l)olth around, if just for the memories.

    Should we build for our players?

    I always bounce ideas off of my players before designing a world, and I do my best to take their comments/concerns into consideration for the final product. That being said, I am quite simply incapable of running a game in a world I have no enthusiasm for. My GMing style is strongly...

    224 page book on Drow yet...

    I think people are forgetting that the release date is May 2007. The possibility that the page count will change from 224 to 160 in that time is pretty good.

    How do you read your PDFs?

    My option isn't really listed: I print out at least part of every pdf I have, but never the whole thing. Sometimes it is a page, sometimes a quarter of the total, but usually about 10% gets printed out.

    How do you like you psionic flavor?

    When I use psionics that is the route I take (and the source I use). I just don't see the point of having psionics be a different mechanic to achieve the exact same results as spells. The game has over a thousand spells now; do you really need powers that do the same things, are dispelled in...

    A leveling way to limit access to magic?

    Because that would just make it a no-magic game, and the DM clearly wants a low-magic game.

    Dungeon Tiles - Storing?

    Me too. Did you get the one with the built-in calculator? Man has that come in handy.

    Homebrew settings and player appeal

    The benefit to the players is that I am better at constructing a world that we will all enjoy playing in than WotC (or any other publisher) is. Most companies design worlds in order to sell books...period. My campaigns are generated in order to entertain and challenge...period. My PrCs, gods...

    After the core, what is the "must have" 3.5 book?

    I would like to second both of these suggestions. And I would add Tome of Magic, the best book showcasing the fact that WotC can think outside the box and isn't afraid to introduce real change into the game. Edit: and I would like to express surprise at the number of votes for DMGII. There...

    Fixing To Drop A Pile of Money on Green Ronin

    I don't even play M&M but I have dropped a bundle on GR: Advanced Players/DM/Bestiary, True20, True Sorcery, Aasimar&Tiefling, Book of the Righteous, Fang&Fury, Freeport (my very first non-WotC 3E purchase), Eternal Rome, and Hamunaptra. My gods, I have a problem. Anyway, I love almost all...

    Tell me about weapons of legacy

    I also hated the mechanics of how the Legacy Items worked, so I came up with my own mechanic where, instead of having cumulative penalties, you spend action points to activate some of the more esoteric item abilities. Each item has an 'always on' ability that improves with level (although much...

    Who do you consider an Anti-Hero in fiction?

    First I want to add my votes for: Vic Makey (The Shield) Angus Thermopyle (Gap into Ruin) Thomas Covenent (Chronicles of same) And add one I haven't seen yet: Spike from Buffy the Vampire Slayer

    WotC advice: Disallow the Frenzied Berserker Prestige Class?

    I think both of the posters above are missing the most salient point: The advice-seeker did not complain about the FB, only the level/number/strength of magic items. Nowhere does the writer suggest that he felt the choice of PrC is unbalancing his game. Yet somehow an employee of WotC, the...

    Need advice: What is a good creature for a campaign climax?

    OK, I missed that. I needed to more obvious Succubus answer to clue in. (And usually my mind is so in the gutter...)

    Need advice: What is a good creature for a campaign climax?

    I was wondering how long it would take for an answer along these lines...

    Need advice: What is a good creature for a campaign climax?

    I would like a demon lord, or actually any big, smart outsider of some sort. Why not Orcus? Well, undead have already figured very prominently in the campaign. One PC is very good against them and I feel she has had her chance to shine. Not that Orcus is undead of course, but a lot of his...

    Need advice: What is a good creature for a campaign climax?

    I am looking for advice about how to end my campaign. It is a modified Eberron campaign, and under the Mournland is an evil that could destroy the world much as it has destroyed the Mournland. And this evil creature is...and that is where I lose it. It can't be one of the Lords of Dust...

    Prisoner interrogation methods

    Stab them in the heart. Cast Speak with Dead. It is the only way to be sure.
