This sort of gets at the crux of my question. Yes, it's good that women aren't passive victims and the like, but this uniformity of interest in women who for some reason must be physically superior to men is what I'm curious about. In some circles, the focus seems to be on the fact that you...

Thanks for the support/suggestion. And if it's easy to move it over to the other group please, by all means, do. I've just posted at Nutkinland. And my purpose here isn't to be sexist at all. I'm actually writing for a feminist zine, for the record.

I'm writing an article for a 'zine and it's about "tough chicks". Buffy, Sidney from Alias, etc. Specifically, about the sudden and powerful interest guys seem to have taken in these kinds of characters. I'm wondering if anyone out there is particularly attracted to these types of characters...

Try hire a HenchmAn, singular. If what I read on the web is right, you're limited to just 1.

There's nothing to see here, move along

The only official things I've seen on this (and they may be out of date) were: 1) It would be easier for single players to get hirelings and 2) You can only have one companion of each "type". Types included (if I remember correctly): familiars/animal companions, summoned monsters and...

Is it going to really suck to play this game one player? If you're only allowed one character, and only one of each "type" of NPC (types including things like familiar, hireling, summoned monster, etc.) how can you possibly get a balanced party and not be whacked by the opposition? The thing...

Fair enough. Anyone else want to chime in on that? I'm certainly open to making them more powerful, I just know that the version I had listed above a lot of people thought was way too powerful (not here, but on Usenet). Thanks! I'm glad this is going to get use outside of my campaign (if I...

Well, there's also their strength, charisma, and the personality section on their arrogance and greed. I picked prestidigitation because it's an easy balance with light and darkness. I may think about frightful presence, though. That might be useful. Just more work :). I find your...

Re: Great idea! I specifically didn't want to do that, because I wanted this to be more about "dragonness" than any particular type of dragon. Partially because there are just too many dragons and partially because the planetouched don't split up what they are based on what their ancestor is...

Fair enough. Keep in mind that I have the Planetouched in mind for comparison purposes. So on the bonuses, I'll discuss the parallels to the Planetouched Aasimar a one-to-one basis below. True. However, Aasimar get +2 Wisdom, +2 Charisma. Argueably, Strength is a more "vital" stat than...

The Wyrm-touched I tweaked a few things, took away their save vs. spells and made them vulnerable to Dragon favored enemy attacks. I also changed the name due to the suggestion I got from the Wizards.com boards. Any further commentary is of course welcome: The Wyrm-touched Dragons' magical...

All this would've done is ensure that people who know about the writing biz wouldn't enter, and many, many more people would've assumed it was a hoax. You never pay to get someone to look at your stuff.

My group is losing a central player, and we'd really like to have one or more to replace him. I'm 28, another guy's 28, the other 2 are in their later 20s. Most of us have been playing for many years. We're currently playing two alternating D&D campaigns. We play in Ocean Township, NJ...

A minor thing: "Alignment: Any" isn't a prerequisite, because it doesn't require anything specific :). Otherwise, it looks good. And now I'm primed to see these characters in the book. I'm only about 1/4 the way through the first book.

Oh, sure. As part of a cheat, I can buy that. That wasn't the sense I got from what he said, though. If it was what was meant, yeah, I'm wrong.

No he couldn't.

Thanks for the compliments, everyone. I really appreciate it. Someone on Usenet has convinced me they're a little overpowered when compared to teiflings and aasimars, so when I get back to my office on lunch break later today, I'm going to crack open the FRCS (which I didn't have access to...

You're right, that was stupid of me. sorry.
