Summoner, defnitely. In EverQuest 1 & 2, I loved my Necromancer (and, to a lesser extent, the Magician / Conjurer). In Dark Ages of Camelot, my favorite classes were Theurgist (summons many small elementals), Cabalist (creates one large golem), Enchanter (summons a fey sorcerer ally)...

My only thoughts on converting the Factotum were flavor-related; The class could be tied into the Shoanti, and represent medium-types who channel the spirits of ancient heroes of their tribe, allowing them to tap into limited arcane or clerical or rogue-ly or fighting talents, by calling upon...

It had a lot of advice on naming your character and coming up with backstories to justify a 1/2 Orc Paladin or Dwavern Wizard or similar idea that would seem alien to a 1st/2nd edition purist due to the old class/race restrictions. The only aspect of the game that it might successfully...

The first rule of Zombie Goblin Fight Club is that you don't talk about Zombie Goblin Fight Club... The goblins appear to be alive, and hack each other to bits, the survivor laughing maniacally, coughing up blood from his many wounds, and then falling over dead. 10 minutes later, they all get...

Wow. I didn't think anyone would be hurt by that. My apologies.

Yeah, that Mike Mearls guy had some odd ideas in the Quintessential Wizard. Wouldn't want him to write anything for 4E.

In addition to the general Traits PDF, you can usually download the various Players Guides for free as well, to skim over their traits. Legacy of Fire PG Regional (Katapesh) Traits; Desert Child, Duskwalker Agent, Freed Slave, Merchant's Child, Nightstall Urchin, Pesh Addict, Pesh Dealer...

The 31 corpses are now decorating the ends of thirty one segmented insectoid limbs that have risen from the ground to pierce through their bodies like an H.R. Giger painting of Vlad the Impaler's favorite pastime. The black oily chitinous skewers are cruely barbed and have raised the goblin...

I had the party meet the press gang on the docks (turned into Experts 1 / Fighters 1, to make them a bit more of a challenge) and, mistaking Egil watching them from the distance for the mastermind of the thugs, they nearly murdered him before he could explain himself. He offered them money...

I hadn't actually checked, but I just took a whiff, and my Pathfinder books smell okay (although, after reading your description, I definitely seem to be picking up a faint 'burnt rubber' scent, now that you mention it!). Still, I had to shove my face into the giant's spiders unmentionables to...

I buy game books just to read (I certainly haven't gotten any gaming use out of my complete collections of Werewolf: the Apocalyse, Wraith: the Oblivion, Mage: the Ascencion or Kindred of the East books, although I still fondle the Guide to the Technocracy and dream of playing a Man in Black...

I definitely agree with Robert's thoughts on the Wisdom penalty, which is why I threw in that lame attempt at justifying Monte's design decision by saying that their senses were so sharp and yet undisciplined that they distracted them.

Litorian Litorians are physical adroit, but while their bodies can move with a blur of motion, too often their minds also move in a blur, and they often lack the ability to focus and discipline their perceptions as keenly as other races. They benefit from a +2 racial bonus to Dexterity, but...

Same deal in my book. Dash, you're not allowed to be as fast as you can be. Bob, you're not allowed to be the hero that you actually are, sit in this cubicle and do paperwork, when you could be saving lives, because *it upsets people* who don't have super-powers to see you out there doing...

A thread about changing the fluff of warforged, which may or may not be useful, once you've hammered out what stats you want to give them; http://paizo.com/paizo/messageboards/paizoPublishing/pathfinder/general/archives/ebberonRacesInGolarion

Hill Giant Steading, the entire party seemed to have a few pinches of dust of disappearance, and they all went invisible, except, paradoxically, the Cleric and Magic-User. The timing was perfect, just as the invisible Rogue, Ranger and Fighter were getting into position in the grand hall, the...

Anything I spring on the PCs is something that functions within the rules, even if I have to pull out stuff like Incantations to provide a means by which the low-level NPC summoned up some critters that were way past his pay grade. I've been in *far* too many games where the NPC used something...

Elves were immune to sleep spells in 1st edition, and slept normally. It wasn't until the Complete Book of Elves (which was an abomination like few others) that the concept of trance entered the game, and only the Forgotten Realms setting embraced the concept. I see no conflict with a race...

Another vote for Adventure! Great fun, and you can make three different 'tiers' of pulp hero, from two-fisted adventures to psychic dudes (like the Shadow) to people with an actual super-ability (like the Man of Bronze).

Heh, I've been posting there at least a year, and I didn't even know that we had post-counts! Here on ENWorld, it's right there for everyone to see, whether you care about Epeenage or not. On Paizo, you've got to click on someone's profile to see their post count, and I'm never really that...
