    So what's the best character sheet out there?

    My players are fond of my sheets, or so they tell me. I uploaded mine into This Thread a while back. Post #11 I think. I borrowed heavily from others I found online. Some of those mentioned already are great, and were great sources of inspiration in my design. The best sheet is often the one...

    Epic Spellcasting getting you Down?

    More EoM goodness? Excellent! I can't wait to see where this product takes the system.

    Myers-Briggs Personality breakdown of ENWorld members

    I agree. It would be interesting if we could get a less flattering list of the faults of each of these personalities.

    Myers-Briggs Personality breakdown of ENWorld members

    Have not read all of the replies... I came out, on the long test, as an INFJ. I've always been fascinated by these tests. :) 100% Introver 38% Intuitive 50% Feeling 11% Judging

    How do you like your orcs?

    I voted for Warcraft, from what I've seen in WoW. I'm not familiar with other warcraft games/literature. My orcs are more brutish looking than pig-like. They are a muddy green or dusky brown, or more commonly a patchwork of the two. Black orcs (more gray than black) are rarely seen, and the...

    Is Your Setting Pretty Much Earth?

    The sun is a portal (huh, guess I'm not the only one with that idea) to the inner planes, which are known collectively as the 'Realms of Creation'. Travel to the inner planes is impossible for living matter, though souls do go there to be rejuvinated before returning to the world in new form...

    Comfort withcross gender characters based on your gender

    I'm pretty much in the same boat.

    Is Your Setting Pretty Much Earth?

    Mine is somewhat different, but not entirely. I'd gladly go into a longwinded explanation of my world, if that is what you are looking for. I can't remember where I first heard this, and I don't remember the quote exactly. I think it was a science fiction or fantasy author who said it. The...

    Ever Use Star Wars Minis for D&D?

    I've considered buying the SW minis (might have gotten in big if the RPG were going strong) for D20 Future games, but I agree that the look is pretty iconic and difficult to see past.

    So... What have you heard about the Dungeons & Dragons Online game?

    Just to make sure we are on the same page, "twitch" tends to mean that the game play has some dependency on the reflexes/speed of the player. A faster player will generally beat out a slower one regardless of the character's abilities in a pure twitch game (most first person shooters). I don't...

    Do you track history within your games?

    I track world history. I do so pretty loosely for most settings, but the creation of a timeline isn't out of the question. I track things that are supposed to happen in the world while the characters are active much more tightly, and typically have a calendar/timeline to let me know when to...

    ressurect or die?

    I've had a player set this stipulation once. I wished him luck in finding a group. I'm glad to see there are others like him out there (for his sake). Not my playstyle, but to each their own. Interesting that you speculate that the choice would be different between real life and a characater in...

    ressurect or die?

    In standard D&D settings, I allow it by the book. It's there, use it if you can afford it. Any and all restrictions most definately apply though. In the homebrew I've been working on it is not readily available (because I personally dislike ressurection but also because of setting elements)...

    The "Gandalf" in your campaign

    Mine was not a magic user exactly (it's hard to explain without getting long winded, assume he had levels in a class with a very limited spell progression), and he is quite dead. He was a historian/anthropologist of sorts. Keeping in mind that civilization is rather new to the world, science...

    Master Feat List... Crikeys!!!

    I've been thinking of doing this myself. A listing of feats with source references and a short description for each (and properly formatted to easily see most dependencies). I need something for my players to look at when they level up and need to pick a new feat. I don't bring any books to...

    Gaming and your Significant Other

    My girlfriend says she is okay with it, but she is obviously not entirely okay with it by her actions. I think she sometimes feels she is competing with the games I play for my attention. She might even be right sometimes, although I generally put in the effort to be a good boyfriend (or at...

    Acquana's Art Thread -- Closed, New Thread Started

    I am really fond of the way you draw kobolds. Enough so to make me consider making them a "core" race in my next homebrew setting.

    Crafting Craft Rules (DC 105?!?)

    I was considering, but have since reconsidered, ditching a lot of th craft/profession type skills and adding a "trade skills" mechanic that would work similarly to trade skills in an MMO. I thought it was a neat idea that would make crafting simpler to understand and more accessible to players...

    World of Warcraft rants

    Excellent point. I can't pretend to know the exact costs of running an MMO but, with the success of this game and the rather high monthly cost of it compared to some other MMO's, I don't see why they can't make our lives a bit easier. I am very happy with WoW. It's the first MMO I've really...

    My 13 year old Daughter and her friends are playing D&D in the Kitchen...

    Sounds excellent! I wish I had more contact with my nephews. I hear they play now, but I've yet to play with them or run a game for them. Never miss a chance to throw that in there, do ya? *jealous look*
