I certainly never yet argued for or against neither warlords nor grognards :/

I prefer mechanical consistency personally, and probably work too hard to make sure all my cinematic game moments (as DM) are mechanically sound. When playing, I like the idea that my character could conceivably do whatever anyone else does. If thats PC entitlement, fine; a derogatory label...

Yeah I guess that gaming in Greyhawk already stretches so much disbelief that trying to explain the sesame seeds might be the proverbial straw :D

I wish my experience-awarding powers weren't so easily capped because this is ridiculous and the best laugh ive had this morning.

Yeah that's how I always read it. It's not much of a stretch of my imagination to believe that the learned long-beards of olden days believed they could transmute rocks into gold and concoct an elixir of eternal youth; They borrowed heavily from old country magics such as sympathetic magic and...

I encountered them years ago playing Baldur's gate, and I think they might have their roots in older gaming, but I'm not sure exactly what they are. Are they simply kobolds that can breathe fire? or are they low-level sorcerers with an ability to cast some fire spell?

Ideally for me, modularity offering the 2nd ed and 3rd ed ways of doing things.

I always assumed that the vial shatters when thrown against a target, because if it didn't, I reckon it would be a feat to get the majority of the contents onto the target. If the glass was anything like laboratory test tubes, they would shatter quite easily if thrown with any force, I reckon...

One idea might be to tone down the requirements. I like the idea of your sources; that adds interesting flavour, and I've considered these ideas myself, but not yet implemented it. Let us know how it goes! In response to an earlier post, I think that its not necessary to go through every spell...

27. Kell Umberdrake; human rogue 1 (trade sneak attack or equivalent for fighter feats or equivalent). The quintessential warrior/adventurer. Scruffy black hair, intelligent eyes and a perpetual 3-day growth. Kell wields a trusty longsword, wears studded leather armour and carries a backback...

Also, we have nothing for 12. Perhaps this is some kind of super stealthing rogue? :D

Awesome! Here goes; 26. Kess Shinaescha, female tiefling fighter 1/barbarian 1. Not evil, but probably her dominant trait is her quick temper. Simple and strong willed, and not capable of guile. Kess doesn't have much to offer in the way of strategy or conversation in general, she thinks that...

I possess a manual for solo gaming in which the DM is the lone Player, as well; It was a legitimate question :) I ran a solo dungeon crawl once, and devised ways that stealth and diplomacy could be used to get through as many encounters as I could, but due to the nature of the dice and the...

One player and one DM? or are you thinking to DM for your own character?

A few ideas I'm playing around with for dealing with animals. Firstly, I'm thinking of houseruling to allow Wild Empathy to enable those with this class feature to influence the attitudes of some outsiders, such as fiendish-template animals and hellhounds. I'm thinking a +4 to the DC. Another...

rogue 1/archivist x; rogue gives you trapfinding while your archivist can handle healing and buffing, whilst having enough skill points to keep search relevant.

*low wolf whistle*

Well that's your opinion, and I can't see you offering anything to this debate which is a shame, because we don't know if you have anything legitimate to say, and to be honest, your comment simply looks antagonistic. That in itself is interesting... I suspect that anybody arguing that men and...

Agreed.

Understood. This is more or less the same way I do things, though I do permit myself to consider impromptu changes where I come to see an opportunity that I didn't see before. This whole issue is a prime example of this. I wonder if I can accurately get across my feelings on this; thing is...
