Hm, Clark, do you by some chance live in Las Vegas? If you do, I'll drive on by! Anything I can do to make it worth your while? I'll bring Talisman? The Lord of the Rings boardgame? :) Or were you just joking? :( Vrylakos

Interesting story from the RPGFreelance list: Short version - one of the authors of I, Mordred is owed $2000 for two projects he wrote for Avalanche Press (I, Mordred being one of them). He was told by the publisher that his work was amateurish, yet was surprised to see that they printed it...

Divine Right? VRYLAKOS

I am likewise looking forward to this game, and will buy it when it hits the stores. I would have liked to see a more crunchy preview, but the Game Trade pages looked good enough for me to allocate the funds pandaward. Vrylakos

Wow, beat me to it, Basilisk! I see you've been upgraded to Elder status. BTW, drop me an email. I'm considering a revision of the SDS, and am looking at some way to 'standardize' the Granted Powers, as well as add a few Domain sorcerer feats. Nice to see you're still around! VRYLAKOS

I threw in a few celestial bloodlines into the sorcerer domain system. There's another one called "Forbidden Union" - basically the offspring or descendant of a celestial and a fiend. Good fodder for conflicted characters. Vrylakos

Hm, I like the emotion-born thing. I think I'll roll that idea into the SDS, if that's ok with you. I can see a 'rage-born' sorcerer, an arcane 'Incredible Hulk'. OR even someone whose birth was filled with anger... a proud woman raped by an invading humanoid army gives birth to an angry...

If you click on the link in my sig, and then go to the updates section, you'll find the Sorcerer Domain System. It's a little rules variant for the sorcerer, wherein you choose the source of your magical power, then choose two domains to reflect it. Its sort of like the clerical domains, but the...

Hey Scott, I'm curious. Was the revision a really big project, or was most of their work semi-sound before you hit it? What do you think was the most common problem you had to correct? Vrylakos

That's a good point: when do critters stop being one type of monster and become another? I have the problem with aberrations and magical beasts. A few critters I've seen had a weird look, so I mentally thought of them as aberrations. I did a double-take when I found out they were magical...

What I'd like to see would be similar products compatible with Fiery Dragon's Counter Collection and the counters in Dragon. Hm, then I could actually see me buying the Counter Collection... Vrylakos

Heh... I've been reading too many threads. Thanks for the correction, even though I corrected it before I read your posts. You folks are fast! VRYLAKOS

Just so you all know the short form: Gen Con will be in San Diego, at the SD Convention Center, same one used for the Comic Con (a big building on the bay). It will run from November 20th-23rd. VRYLAKOS

Howdy! I figured I'd post a thread here to get some discussion going on subjects I'm interested in. I've done 11 monsters for Atlas Games' Penumbra Bestiary. They posted one of my critters, the dracotick, on the "ANOTHER monster book?" thread in the main forum. Here's my question: in getting...

Re: Because you asked so nicely ... Hello Scott! By the way, I'm Darren Miguez, the author of the dracotick. Thank you for the scrutiny! It really helps get the nuances of the monster rules down. The above is located in a strange place under the dracotick's write-up, right after Poison. I'm...

Hm, I've never heard of this before. Is this stated somewhere in the MM or the How to Make a Monster article? Vrylakos

A-ha! It's the Climb speed coupled with the Climb skill. Is that it? Have I solved your riddle, oh King of Monsters? :) Thanks for the lesson! There are so many little things in the MM's first few pages, it's easy to miss some things. Vrylakos

Ok... a reason... like what? I'm sorry, I must be dense or something. Admittedly, you've had a heck of a lot more experience converting/making monsters, so your well-trained eye may spot something I am missing. So, Scott, cease your coyness! Spit it up, man! Vrylakos
