Ewww, magical solutions instead of martial ones. I like your proficiency idea. Or, they could just not be as good at protecting themselves as damage, thus they don't go rushing into battle like a group of D&D adventurers. Although, one thing a DM did long ago that I liked, was after someone...

I think some of these should add stuff as the character gets higher level. For example, if you're the child of Thanatos, maybe at first you only get a +1 to perception when trying to detect dead people, or detecting undead, or whatever. But when you hit ninth or twelfth level, you get bone wings...

Scary clowns shouldn't wait for a game where they're appropriate. They should barge into campaigns without the DM's permission, and make him cry in terror at night, when he turns all the lights out.

Yeah, but you're right in that those things don't say you need hands free. While for most people they probably need to climb a tree with two hands, maybe my character's part monkey somewhere in his ancestry, so he has an easier time of it(as evidenced by my pouring every skill point I have into...

Well yeah. You're turning your back, you're reloading, then you're turning back around quick as you can. I can't imagine using that technique in a melee fight unless you had Daredevil vision.

What if a large shield was strapped to your back, and you turn around when reloading your crossbow?

Can you throw and fight with your shield?

Can they, though? Would they comment here and verify that?

I now want to play a Warforged Werewolf. I'd be a Wereforged Warwolf.

I personally love the idea of a mini-Cthuhlu familiar. Make him as cute as he is horribly repulsive and madness-inducing. It reminds me of the little familiars you'd get in Symphony of the Night. I would totally make a Warlock if I could get a Minithuhlu, and that's speaking as a guy who...

You know what would be cool? Take the Half-Orc race, remove all the fluff, add a few Tiefling mechanics, paint them red and voila, you have a Hellboy race. Now make him an Urban Barbarian, cross him with Gunslinger, and you've got something swell.

Being bigger than the DM, and gaming the same way LBJ politicked usually helps.

Hercules/Herakles: -17 to INT and -20 to WIS. +600 to STR. Kratos: Free feat called 'Ultimate Atheist'. Allows you to kill gods and ruin the world forever, but it doesn't matter because they slighted you personally somehow. Anubis: Improved Handle Animal, but only with Jackals and other...

I always mess with my DM, I write my backstory so that it always ends up being an episode of Quantum Leap, and I'm stuck in my character's body and have to get out somehow. He hates it but I just laugh and laugh and laugh.

Worf was full Klingon. Spock was half-Vulcan.

(Ooops!)

I designed an alien people once, for a Star Wars game. And, basically they were natural golems, they were made from the earth and plants and all that, but they grew biologically. Also, they were unisex. Well, once a year, one of the most accomplished, and most esteemed members of said race...

Glad I could help. Mazel tav.

Speaking as a player, I would want to make a Martial/technology based character, to destroy magic as he sees it as the root of all evils in this world. I'm already planning stuff for your campaign and I'm never gonna play it. That's a good sign.

They should have a slot machine where you have to roll for stats.
