Thorin Bloodsworn; male 1/2 orc; War, Ftr or Rgr; LN Thorin was rescued as a babe by a dwarven paladin during a raid on an orcish tribe, and left in the care of an elderly dwarven priest. He was raised to reject his orc blood, to believe in the supremacy of the dwarven people, and to be a...

Some more info about this existing keep would be very useful. Is it even in dwarven lands, manned by dwarves? That would obviously make a big difference in turning it into a dwarven temple...

Lisa, Sor1, NG Scullery Maid Lisa's mother was an adept, who was burned at the stake as a witch by ignorant peasants. Lisa grew up on the streets, learned not to trust anyone, and to hide her magical talent. She Charmed her way into the castle, hoping find a better life for herself. She's a...

Reworded a little to soothe my delicate sensibilities. ;) "Forced to mate with blinded or blindfolded human males" sounds rather like there's some really sick and twisted BBEG breeding medusas. :D And "infinitessimal" is just the wrong word altogether...

Instead of scaly, I'd prefer something more subtle. Perhaps their skin looks *too* smooth, even glossy. As if their whole skin is made from a scale-like substance, rather than soft human-skin.

It's not just Metcalfe's Law, it's actually even more pronounced than that. Metcalfe's Law states that the value of a communications network is proportional to the square of the number of users, i.e. proportional to the number of pairwise connections that can be made across the network...

True. I would expect any DM will be able to figure out how the birds and bees work for his particular world... (You'd also have to wonder how a medusa mates with a live male human... :confused:)

Gah - what a screwed-up genetics! medusa x human male = medusa medusa x maedar = humans Wha? :confused: Any chance of changing this? This bit of insanity just spoils the whole critter for me...

Main things that seem to be missing: - Character level? "I am fine with playing non-epic campaigns" to me reads like "I'd really love to play epic campaigns, but I'll reluctantly play one around lvl 15". Or do you typically start at lvl 1 and slowly work you way up to mid-levels? - What is...

Woohoo - all fixed! Thanks a bunch, Kevin. :)

Just sent you my PayPal info, PC. Thanks for helping out!

Might be faster to just wait for one more vote. If there's still a tie at that point, we can let Shade pick his favorite. After all, he's the one setting up these polls, and there doesn't seem to be any strong preference between the top three anyway.

Hey, right now we've got 18 votes from 11 voters. Would you rather have had 7 votes less? The chance of getting a tie decreases as the total number of votes increases, so allowing multiple votes will always tend to reduce the likelihood of a tie. PS: voted against -skule, because it sounds...

Time to call it for Glupsomething, methinks. Now we just need to agree on which Glupsomething. :D

Don't like glup-skull. There's really nothing "skull" related with this giant, plus it messes with the etymology (glups + kulle, not glup + skull). I could go for glupskul or glups-kull though...

Then again, a PC with a Napoleon complex can be lots of fun too! ;)

26. The clerics of the state church have spells that can heal even the gravest disease, regenerate limbs, and even bring the dead back to life! If this news got out, chaos would undoubtedly erupt among the populace...

Sure! You're the expert, so feel free... I think we're looking for something that does not necessarily translate *directly* from a modern-day language. More for something you could make a plausible etymological argument for. Actually, we mainly need a name that sounds cool, so if you can help...

Ya know, if you let people vote for multiple choices, you wouldn't get so many ties. More total votes = less chance the top candidates get the exact same number of votes.

That would be the common-sense interpretation, right. But not exactly what the RAW says... Shield, Tower: "you can instead use it as total cover, though you must give up your attacks to do so." Total Cover: "You can’t make an attack against a target that has total cover." Sunder: "Step 1...
