I second the motion. One of the campaigns I'm playing in uses that system and it's quite a lot of fun. I'm having a lot of fun "freeforming" my character in response to campaign events instead of simply gaining "level x" of whatever class I originally started my character with. I'm not saying...

LOL!! :D The "disadvantages" you list pale in comparison to it's numerous other abilities, so much so that I personally wouldn't even consider them. an ECL of +4 is the absolute lowest I'd even consider. More of a place to leap off from in calculating it's rating as a pc race. Still, I guess...

Just what are these unwritten rules? I've never heard of them... Don't attack an evil temple until epic level? Man, just try and STOP my players!! lol! :D "don't split the party"? Sometimes that's the BEST way to solve a given situation! :) I am curious to know what other unwritten rules...

Here's a thought, although it may make them more powerful than you'd prefer... What if one of their edges was sharp like a razor blade, an actual "keen" edge and everything? THEN they'd be worrisome!! They could literally slice YOU to ribbons!!! :)

Oh! Well, then if you're considering using it as a PC race, then shouldn't you be working with your GM on this? I know that unless stated otherwise, most GMs prefer to maintain controll over what races are available as pc-playable races, especially player-invented ones... For use as a PC race...

This thread is quite interesting. So much so that I've compiled most of the suggested words here, plus a few I found myself online. I was surprised to see how many we currently have gathered! Granted, not everyone will want to use all of them. Some of them don't carry the desired connotation...

Leaving aside the "issues" of is the word mana overused, misused, or displaying laziness when used, there is one point made by the poster that I do agree with. There is a certain lack of variety in only using "mana". I for one would welcome having more words that mean "magical energy"...

Here's an idea: Take an Orc or Bugbear stats, take out anything that doesn't match the idea you had in mind, add anything that you feel they need (like bonuses to climbing and such), and then boost their stats (like strength or HP) until they reach the equivalent of CR 2 or 3. Since your...

This thread provokes in me two thoughts: 1) I've got to check out some of your pdfs. I've noticed your publications for some time and they've all seemed to be solid stuff, but the praise that you're getting from everyone here is making me wonder what I'm missing out on by not owning your...

Uh BoB, This Godsman is really cool, but with all the revisions, suggestions for revisions, and countermanded-layered-multi-revisions-with-all-new-realstic-godsman-action(TM) I've lost track of what is and isn't a Godsman! ;) Could you post a complete and compliled, latest version of the...

These are moderately high level characters (12th or so) right? And thay're no longer involved in minor events, but are more concerned with intrigues of national proportions, right? Ok, then they must have a lot of npcs who uphold in one way or another their power/influence. The head of the...

I have a suspicion that you may be creating more work for yourself than is needed. By combining half of one creature type's abilities and advancement with half of a different creature type's abilities and advancement, you might be making a creature which is overly complicated to advance or...

Thanks for the article wingsandsword, I enjoyed reading it! You've very nicely put into words the same way that I usually think of Common. You've also greatly expanded on various aspects that I've never given as much thought to. I'm saving your post for future reference. Again, thanks! :)

I think that it's great that everyone is so willing to pitch in and help out! I was half afraid to post this thread for fear of getting flamed! :) I'm glad to see that my fears were baseless. I sent some cash to The Mad Irishman and in his thank you email he mentioned that several other...

Here's an odd thought... What if one of the two moons was a "ghost" moon, from a moon that was destroyed(?) aeons ago by some terrible sorcery gone awry... It could even be that the ghost moon is actually partially in the ethereal/shadow/"whatever equivalent you use" plane and thus technically...

My apologies if this has been brought up already here. I went to The Mad Irishman's website today to see if he had anything new and I saw this announcement: 6/22/05: Well, I guess it's time for me to whine again. :^) Really, this site was never about making money...well, I hoped some...

LOL :lol: Whee! I'm right! :) I like being right! :cool: Seriously though, I hope that you're able to get your first book out the door. You have a group of fans and it looks like you know your stuff.

[RL breaking in and causing OT... sorry everyone!] Hi Turanil! I'm doing great! You should check out our site more often! :) We're doing a Firefly Browncoat replica - gonna be released any day now! We're all really excited at the office! :) Other than that, I'm gaming more than before and am...

I agree with points from both of the above posters. As Steel_Wind was saying, regardless of the "why", the "result" is that the show has been stopped for the past six months and while the show creators may have the best intentions of resuming it some day, that certainly isn't any guarantee...

I don't know if this is your intent for this creature or not, but this is the image that leapt to mind when I read the title. :D
