Then I would say that what you have is not a masochist character so much as a comedian for a player. (The 3.5 DMG II calls this player an Outlier.) Give him a fish's head (and don't let on that it's temporary). Make him exude water (as though sweating) in inconvenient quantities. Make him...

(1) Kill the character and let the player roll a new one -- it certainly seems like that's what the player wants. (Are there any other clues the player is unhappy with this character? ) (2) Reverse the biomancy experiments. The player may be regretting them. (3) Turn the character's skin an...

I'm no slouch myself, and I estimate no less than a week per product on average, assuming starting with paper originals (we don't have any information about what OD&D, 1E, and 2E material exists in electronic form, and whether any of *that* is usable). Multiply by the number of products and...

This would take an epic length of time. This layout guy would be assured of at least five years' work.

4E has taught WOTC, among other things, that nobody at Hasbro is committed to keeping D&D alive if it doesn't meet its financial targets. So I find the OP's argument convincing -- this means nobody at WOTC is likely to authorize spending the money to get a POD thing going.

Update: I've been reliably informed that the ocean view is from near Sid Minos, not Nalaam. This will be fixed when the handout is incorporated into the adventure.

I expect to be done early next week. With any luck, Monday. But EN Publishing luck tends to be the other kind, so that's as specific as I dare get.

8. They haven't made final decisions on fonts, either. But I still hope they choose fonts I like.

I WANT to like #1. I voted for it. But it looks too much like a brine shrimp. My other likes -- #7 for nostalgia factor, but it needs to be reshaped a bit. #10 and #19, not bad, but if they could be melded somehow with #1 -- that'd be the hotness. I believe I spotted a couple of "ringers" --...

Combo. The books should be useful AND immersive AND gorgeous. That part's easy. Striking just the right balance -- that's hard. See Zeitgeist for an example of approximately where I think the balance could be set.... ETA: And will somebody PLEASE make sure text baselines line up between...

I have all those fonts, so no, please don't use them. ;) #15 and #17 are intriguing though. I think something nifty could be accomplished with either one, but they don't excite me.

Storyteller 92% Specialist 67% Tactician 58% Butt-Kicker 58% Power Gamer 50% Method Actor 50% Casual Gamer 17% I'm not sure what to make of this, unless it's "Story is paramount, and I'll do whatever it takes to make that happen, except sit idle!" That's not inaccurate.

Parentheses would get my vote. Barbarian/Paladin (Deva, Pub Crawler). Or if they're tied to class, Barbarian (Pub Crawler) / Paladin (Deva).

Not too shabby, IIDSSM.

Don't mean to be a pest, but is the misspelling of "perturbed" intentional?

I picked "Timmy" even though I'm not 100% "in" any of these categories -- or rather, to some degree I'm in all of them. Primarily Timmy, with elements (or moments) of all the others, I guess.

I don't anticipate book reprints -- I infer from what was said that they're continuing to look into electronic delivery, maybe print-on-demand. "Available" covers a lot of ground.

Use of the word "modality" makes any argument smell fishy to me. In this case, I'd have to say "thanks but no thanks." The D&D cosmology should never require a 200-level course in Metaphysical Woo-Woo to fully grok.

Apart from the non-final art, it also still has "page xx"-itis. But it is otherwise all but final (meaning it IS final apart from those two things, unless I spot something else that needs changing on my last review).

Sounds awful. If I rolled up a PC with CON 11 or below, I'd start play dead?
