You obviously aren't an Honor Harrington fan. (SF by Davis Weber.)

It's called hydrophobia. "An abnormal fear of water." According to Webster. (Also used for rabies, but that's beside the point.)

Definitely sounds like fun. As has been said, let the Ninja player play a monkey. One thing you have to be a little careful about in a tower is what to do with the bull. Great for bashing in doors, if he's got enough room to manouver. Otherwise he's got nothing much to do. (Most of the time...

Hmmm... I can't say that I really hate any RPG that I've played. But... Magic, never got into it. Timeship. Read the rules. Read them again because I couldn't believe that anyone could seriously be proposing it as a real game. To play it 'properly' you had to do some of the things that the...

I said Sorcerer. Wizard was close, but I suspect that I'm too lazy for that.

I wouldn't change the CR. But I haven't GMed much D&D for some time. But having 'monsters' use their 'treasure' in a fight themselves? Sure, every group I've ever played in has had someone say the magic words: "Hey, they're using our loot!" Fairly often in some cases.

I voted Druid. You get a little of everything. I notice, however, that some people are assuming that you'd get, or be able to achieve, more than one level. But that isn't clear in your actual question.

NOTE: Early Iron Age weapons are worse that bronze weapons!!! Steal is very rare! How to make it is either a matter of accident or known to only a very few select armor/weapon smiths. The reason iron took over from bronze was because it was more plentiful and, therefor, cheaper. (Once you knew...

Back when 1e first came out I figured that Half-Elves would allow me to play the type of character I wanted to, or as close as D&D let me. As I stuck with that type of character for quite some time I got into the habit of playing Half-Elves most of the time, even when we weren't playing D&D. It...

I got my package too, and would like to say thanks again to JN! A nice gesture, resulting in a nice selection of gifts. Kewl beans!

He's not a hero. A monster/villain/undead character from the Golden Age who was brought back in the Siver Age and is still lumbering around the DCverse.

Sorry I came across as such a Smart @$$, I was trying for ironic. My main concern is that most, if not all, of the other methods have a time limit. If the time limit ends and someone can't get re-upped for some reason (being cut off from the others with no item of his own on hand, for example)...

In other words, you have to be a boot licking, arrogent, bigoted, chauvinist murderer. I'm glad to see that ForceUser isn't going that route! (I was also going to quote the bit from WolvOrine about Thor and different codes for Paladins of different deities. But ForceUser had a good answer to...

Should have read a couple more posts before replying to the one I just did. ;)

If they are, then yes. They don't look like Bags of Holding, but I don't know if they are or not. Don't forgt the line about picking up the "lightest" one with the bottle caps in it.

Let's see. You're sending them someplsce where they expect/hope to gain the Water Breathing ability. Then you are going to put them through an underwater adventure. But you don't want to give them all Water Breathing? What's wrong with this picture?

I'm not going to say anything about Miko (except I'm glad she's not in our group), because the next strip ought to deal with the situation one way or the other. What I want to know is why they are abandoning the greater part of the treasure? It's GOLD! It has NOT been destroyed! (In other words...

Try to get hold of Midkemia Press's "Cities", which I believe is available online. There are lots of charts to roll on for Things Happen while the PCs are in town. (Noticing stuff, bumping into people, obvious events, etc.)

Lots of good suggestions, and I can't think of anything to add. But I have to ask, 16th level? These guys are stinking rich! So what are they doing in the poor part of town? And why on earth do you think they'll stay there for more tham five minutes?

To enlarge a bit on what Mythusmage said, you have to remember that iron was a miracle metal of sorts way back when. Not because it was better than bronze, it wasn't, but because once people learned how to work it, they could make as much armor and as many weapons as they wanted. (Which they...
