    Dwarven Stonewarder (A Dwarf PrC)

    Ok first impression: It's pretty cool, I think you have a really nice base concept and only see a few areas that I'm not completely sold on. For the elemental companion, I think a little more clarification may be in order. How does growth work? What is the stat improvement? Do I use the medium...

    New martial class (Praetorcaust) no longer in need of name!

    What about its balance? does anybody have a comment? Nice name airwalkrr, tough I don't think it really fits with my games motif... As for the name I'm thinking of going with "Praetorcaust", which would be latin for beyond+burn. Praetor is the root for preternatural, so I think this could...

    Avalability of Magic Items

    You might add some kind of modifiers for appropriate locale and stuff. Like a sliding scale of mods For example: You get a +2/-2 to the check for cultural stuff, locale, environment factors, etc. +2 to find boots of elvenkind in elven city -2 to find cold weather gear in a desert city...

    Avalability of Magic Items

    Doh! I will now present myself for public ridicule and flogging. If none are willing I shall thrash myself soundly with a wet squirrel. Please hold on while I get in contact with my nasty inner masochist. Seriously, I should know better than to read and post while tired. Upon further review I...

    New martial class (Praetorcaust) no longer in need of name!

    Okay, so way back in second edition I had a small publisher product that had a new class in it. I really liked the feel of the class and have toyed with doing an update of it for a long while. That said I lost the original product and so everything here is coming from my very limited...

    Race For Shadowcasters

    I like these a bit more than the mindlings. But I have some thoughts you can take or leave. I think they should have darkvision, as they love the shadow, maybe they should be abale to see in it when it is completly dominant? The bonus to hide fits the flavor but I'm not sure if it will become to...

    A Variant Rogue

    I really wanted to come up with a class that was kind of dark/luck tied, which is kind of what you did here, but I don't really get any sense of style from this, myself. The rerolls are very powerful, in that they will in all likelyhood keep the character from ever fumbling any roll (especially...

    Some house rules IMC.

    To make the math simple you just have the bonus to the d20 role prefigured for each spell level on your character sheet , in play time it takes no longer than a fighter rolling an attack roll. As for my example I should have known better than to use a known figure, what I should have said was...

    A New Race

    Like I said I don't claim to know diddly about psionics, I was more concerned that thier abilities seemed geared to only that, with the skill bonuses and such. It wasn't meant as any kind of indictment to the race, I was just trying add fuel for thought. Whenever I attempt to design a new race I...

    Some house rules IMC.

    As for the comment above, I think a 20th level caster should cast a 1st level spell with a more difficult save. It would seem wierd to me if Raistlin and joebob the apprentice both had the same save for a fireball...just a thought... Drexes

    Some house rules IMC.

    I know it seems clunky at first but it really worked out well. I hadn't thought of anything for crit hits and misses, I'll think about it though. As for the sneak attack/skirmish thing I figured it would work because the sneak attacker can still hit the cartlidge of a skeletons joints or the...

    Some house rules IMC.

    the extra hassle allows caster level to play a role in save dc and allows for some fluidity to the nature of magic in my campaign. Plus you can simply have the modifiers precalculated just like a fighter has his attack roll calculated, so there is really no hassle. The world of Obsydia is based...

    Some house rules IMC.

    IMC we have play tested these rules pretty thoroughly and after discussing them with my group we really like them. The first rule is something i got for a board somewhere a long time ago. So whoever, wherever, thanks. Turn Undead Instead of the turn undead rules in the Player’s Handbook, we...

    A New Race

    Okay let me start with crunch then go to fluff. Crunch: I don't pretend to know the psionics rules at all so I won't pretend to know if the balances in skills is good or whatever, but I can tell you that I think telepathy as a constant effect with anyone is really powerful. Two bonus power...

    Bring back DR/+2????

    We use the DR avoided by + rule in our campaign and it works well, though we use a three per + exchange. Overcome three points of DR/+1 of the weapon. I admit that it tends to make dr more powerful, but in a lot of cases I have found that too many creatures with dr have low hit points for thier...

    Cerimyr: my first Homebrew

    I like your creation myth, it gives the world a unique feel. The only portion of it I had reservations about is the five heroes whose fate it is to decide the focus of the next age. My thought is this: If you run the campaign as the players are the five, which seems likely, then when the...

    Lion Riders -- suggestions wanted

    In my homebrew campaign setting, there is an elite cavalry group of knights who defend a great grasslands nation. The Knights are known as the Lion Riders of the Hundyr (Hundyr being the name of the country). Anyway, as thier name implies, these knights (using knights as a generic term not for...
