Dual Harmonics The bard gains the ability to make two perform checks in any given round. He may only use this to combine instruments that might actually be combined in such a manner: vocal and guitar, for example, but not vocal and flute. When making a normal performance (to gain gp, for...

Have you thought about increasing rogue specials, but the types available and the number received? [core rules]Rogue Specials: 10, 13, 16, 19 (4) [proposal #1]Rogue Specials: 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20 (6) This simply changes the specials from once every 3 levels to once every 2 levels...

I use Betabunny's "Predators." As such, I tend to use animals more often than core rules might suggest or presume. That said, wolves are first on my list. Note that while they are CR 1, this presumes a party of four. Against a single first level human fighter, barbarian, etc a single wolf can...

"But only when he makes a pun!" was the first thing that came to mind when I read this one. :) http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0390.html It is weaker than - or at best about the same in weakness as - the typical bard. Consider what you lose without spellcasting: arcane healing, break...

Rogue comes to mind instantly. Thinking a bit longer on it . . . hmmm . . . I believe the Barbarian is balanced, as probably is the 3.5e Ranger (but *not* the 3e Ranger). Warlock is close to balanced, as is the Psychic Warrior and probably the Psion. The Wizard can be closed to balanced...

I just realized that we all have been going about this the wrong way! We've all been trying to faithfully recreate Batman for D&D, but if he is going to be a CR appropriate encounter then he must be at least somewhat limited by the PCs themselves - perhaps a couple levels over their current...

That's right, Arcadia. So, the paladins (and windstrider) will be in / on Mt Celestia, and Miko, having shown more tendencies for Law than pure LG, will end up in Arcadia. Hmm, I wonder if Roy would end up in Arcadia. He strikes me as too NG for that, although perhaps with enough lawful...

Suddenly I'm having this vision of the Enterprise flying down that shaft instead of the Millennium Falcon. :) Hmm, the top can separate from the rest of the Enterprise, and then it does look like a disc - much like the millennium falcon, only bigger, so perhaps it was present for the destruction...

A few levels of either Monk or Ninja, the equivalent Ascetic feat to continue building up unarmed strike damage, and several levels of either Rogue or Urban Ranger (perhaps trading out animal companion and divine casting for something akin to artificer abilities). Hmm, the more I think of it...

What if Death Attack were made a Rogue special, perhaps requiring 5d6 Sneak Attack and Crippling Strike before it could be taken. That would limit it to Rogue level 13 at earliest I think (presuming Crippling Strike were taken at level 10). Since sneak attack 5d6 is gained at rogue level 9, this...

Hmm, I'm not entirely sure of that. As I recall the Great Wheel, there is a purely LG plane, and then there is a plane between it and the LN plane, a plane for those that are too good for a pure LN plane but too lawful for a purely LG plane. I think in 2e it was the plane where St Cudgel, or...

Charisma is a measure of how much influence you have on your surroundings. For most it is a social matter, but for spontaneous casters it also covers influence over one's surroundings (ie: over reality itself). Point of fact, as a house rule I use Cha for Will saves IMCs, as I think this...

For the equator region (say 5 - or at most 10 - degress north and south of the equator), I was thinking along the lines of the following: the wet season looking something like this: (typical savanna) http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b3/Male_lion_on_savanna.jpg (dry woodland /...

How about a new variant class, perhaps mixing the Warlock with the Rogue, gaining Death Attack at level ten after five gainings of sneak attack? Instead of their own list, they have various invocations they can learn, and perhaps instead of warlock style specials they gain specials such as sneak...

I personally would not use minotaurs, as in Greek mythology the minotaur was a unique creature. Centaurs, however, work quite well, and satyrs might as well. I would likely have the centaurs be the equivalent of the mongols or some other semi-nomadic plains peoples. Satyrs could be the...

First off, you do not need a solar flare. However, you will need to make a few assumptions: 1) Continental Drift has ending. So long as continental drift exists the low points where the oceans fill will always be moving. However, this also means that volcanism will be largely ended, although a...

An interesting idea. How about this idea: You roll a critical hit on your attack. It is time to roll to confirm the critical. You now have the option of making a called shot. Some type of size modifier of the size of the target is added to the necessary AC for confirming the critical. If you...

An interesting idea actually. It would allow a brief return of the character without actually raising her. I tend to agree with those who think that this was a good ending for Miko. I also like that atonement did not come with forgiveness, as there should be a distinction between the two -...

Personally, I tend to envision using binders in a manner similar to their inspiration - pacts / summoning of fiends. On the other hand, I would prefer if the entire class were reduced to a talent tree or series of feats, so that any class might more readily make use of it. I can see a fighter...

:lol: I'm not sure she would even need evasion, however, as O-chul survived without it. Miko is around 12th level with classes that have at least a d8 in hp if not higher. If O-chul survived (and I presume his level is equal or less than Miko's), the Miko almost certainly survived it - if only...
