A friend in whose campaign I play has been using it heavily. We've got a psychic warrior in our party, and he totally rocks. Able to regularly dish out a +6d6 bonus damage attack, and this at 5th level. At 6th, it'll go up to a regular 8d6, and up to 11d6 if he's feeling really nasty. Plus he...

My resident neurologist says it's a bit of both, and refers me to Why Michael Can't Play Baseball as an example of that sort of thing. --Jeff

Tiger Style Kung Fu Ranger! 2: Improved Unarmed Strike, deal 1d6 base damage w/ unarmed attacks 6: +2 Listen and Move Silently, increase unarmed damage to d8 11--Pounce (may make a full attack at the end of a charge), increase unarmerd damage to d10 Witch Hunter Ranger! 2: +2 to saves vs...

Why use D&D when you could use Legends of Middle Earth? It's a rules-light system that should be an excellent introduction for new players, custom tailored for genre emulation of Tolkien's works. Plus it has two campaign ideas in the back, one dealing with the City of Corsairs and the balrog...

In commercially purchased print, I've got D&D 3.0 d20 Modern Star Wars d20 unrevised Engel d20 Feng Shui Mage: the Ascension revised Vampire: the Masquerade revised Exalted In .pdf, a couple hundred. --Jeff

Last session: 3.0 core books, Arms and Equipment Guide, Tome and Blood, Defenders of the Faith.

Yeah, so I'm 15 years old. Compared to you fogies, I have no right to go around yakking about how idillic things were back when I was a wee whipper-snapper. But hey, it's not that they weren't idillic. It just wasn't that long ago. Anyway, I got into role-playing after some friends of mine saw...

I feel a need to pimp my own stuff... Pagoda (zipped .pdf file) is a game of melodramatic martial arts Wuxia action. If you liked Crouching Tiger, A Chinese Ghost Story, and Bride with White Hair, this is definitely the game for you. Simple rules, chargen takes literally five to ten minutes...

This calls for a Fireball. :D --Jeff

My sources tell me that FO is more a cards-oriented place than RPG-oriented. But then, my sources only go there to win LotR tournaments, so take that as you will. :) And looking forwards to tomorrow! --Jeff

Or the ability to enchant your own sword, ala the Ancestral Daisho of the Samurai in OA. --Jeff

A rather eccentric gentlemen, professor, diviner, and expert in matters of Magic, Education, Alchemy, The Divinitative Arts, The Far Realms, Engineering, and Planar Sociology, Topology, and Arcanistry, Teppin the Trans-Perceptive works at a teaching position at the Mehrdorf Academy of Magic...

You know, you might actually want to go with Nehael. Neha, while isn't anywhere close to hebrew, does sound like it shares a root with Nihilism; and el means God in hebrew. Alternatively just peruse your Blake and pick something that sounds cool. 'cuz Blake totally roxx0rz j00. --Jeff

I would just like to take a minute to pimp Pagoda, the wuxia role-playing game. Kung fu action amidst spurts of melodrama in ancient China! A free version is linked to in my sig, and the (expanded and revised) game will be included as part of the No Press Anthology from Burning Wheel Press...

Teppin's Forceful Shunning Evocation (electricity) Level: Sor/Wiz 2 Components: V, S Casting Time: 1 action Range: Close (25'+5'/2 levels) Target: One creature or object Duration: Instantaneous Saving Throw: Reflex Negates Spell Resistance: Yes The caster traces a rune of power in the air...

I chose Other, because I don't even run d20 any more. I don't even run or buy commercial games, come to think of it. With literally hundreds upon hundreds of free systems out there I just don't see the point. Plus I'm lazy and d20 takes a long time to prep for, comparatively speaking, and makes...

Kaleb is piloting the Fortune away from Epsilon Orbital. Clunking sounds; he looks behind him. Commander Conners has entered the pod. (Conners) (Amusement) So you're a kinetic. (Kaleb) And a molder, you may have noticed. [1] (Conners) And then some. Those are rare. (Kaleb) Not so rare among...

Out of curiosity, what system are you using?

I've got a nice big battlemat (33x44) I can bring with accompanying 4-color marker set. Let me know if you need it. :) And did I mention that Exemplar needs players? :D --Jeff

Hmm. The GD site won't let me log in any more. Has this happened to others? If it passes I'll report back. At any rate, it appears that Exemplar isn't getting any love. Spaceships. Dogifights. Kung Fu. Psychic powers. Cosmic wormholes. Come on people, what's not to like? Learn a new system and...
