Yeah, Hirst Arts stuff is great. Better quality than most resin pieces, provided you're willing to put some effort into it. For actual gaming purposes, I'd still choose cardstock over plaster any day though. It takes a LOT less work, is lighter, easier to store and transport, often offers...

Yeah - Anyone else prefer 4d6 over 3d8? ;)

Think of it like a fantasy novel... I sure wouldn't want to read a novel where the author spends 2-3 pages on the protagonist haggling over pearls, if that scene doesn't contribute to the story. I might give him a roll to see what he *actually* gets, based on his Appraise skill, Sense Motive...

As a DM, you are also in a great position to encourage more roleplaying from him. Put him in situations where you try to draw social interaction out of him. When he does something well, make sure to reward him verbally - a simple "cool!", "man that was funny" or "great roleplaying!" can do...

Start to award a good chunk of the XP for roleplaying. Any "encounter" XP should be shared equally among the entire party. Next, give him some hints about the whereabouts of the slavers and his wife. Maybe another villager who was taken by the slavers at the sdame time as the PC's wife managed...

Ditto! :) "WTF - what are we gonna do with her? Can't eat her, can't sell... Hey guys, I have an idea!" ;)

More often than Control Water, which is a much more useful ability (not to mention a higher-level spell). Let's say I'll vote for "at will". In that case, we could just average the votes and settle on Create Water 5/day, Control Water 3/day

Uhm... none? Face it, this guy can create more water the natural way... :D

I would say "yes" to allowing them within the same submission if they fit thematically, even if they might not be of the Fey type mechanically.

That sounds a little better - although still overpriced. Rackham: 15 reversible 12x12" (30x30 cm) tiles for $26 (20 Euro) WotC: 6 reversible 8.5x11" ("page-sized"?) tiles for $10 If I understood Merric's post correctly, the WotC tiles may be of varying sizes. For example, you might have one...

Not to mention the fact that you get a *lot* more pages out of a laser toner cartridge than out of an inkjet cartridge... PS: As for quality of inkjet refills... yes, there is definitely a significant variability between different 3rd party vendors. But with some research and experimentation...

On the other hand, inkjet printers are ridiculously cheap(*), and offer great quality for their price. For example, I happen to know that Denny Unger, the guy in charge of WWG, uses a cheapo Lexmark inkjet printer for all his work - including that demo picture I posted above! (*) Ink is the...

More relevant to this discussion... they're also working on a new 2.5D set, called DungeonLinx, which will probably blow the competition right out of the water when it comes to graphics quality. Here's a little preview:

If you'll allow me to repost the rock damage analysis from the Gargantuan "Traditional Giant": Note also that the Stone Giant uses two hands for throwing, which could explain its higher damage output. All in all, I think 4d6 should at least be an option in this poll. Neither 2d8 nor 3d8 is a...

For reference: Our giant currently has a -14 to Hide, without any bonuses. But then there's also this: Camouflage (Ex): Since a GIANT looks like a normal hill when at rest, it takes a DC 20 Spot check to notice it before it attacks. Having both a Hide bonus when immobile and a Camouflage...

Neither of those are very appetizing, but if forced to choose I'd go with "Standard". Less treasure is better for this guy, IMO. Plus Standard seems to be the default for Giants.

For reference, here's a list of WotC fey, posted earlier by Echohawk. Most of these (all?) are already 3.5 though: Fey Anarchic Satyr (Planar Handbook) Bajang (Oriental Adventures) Bisan (Oriental Adventures) Crossroads Guardian (Magic of Faerûn) Domovoi (Frostburn) Dryad (Monster Manual...

You mentioned that those fey you posted here - "Faeries – the Little People" - were part of an earlier query. Did that query ever go through, and if not, are these guys still in the running?

Is that last set of fey you posted still up as well? Or was that just as an example?

Dweomer .... well, that's the only one for me, really. Then again, I do not suffer from the disadvantage of having english as my native tongue. ;) :p [Edit: Ok, after having read the other entries, I'll admit to "doxy" and "fane" as well.]
