    [NC, Knightdale/Zebulon/Wilson] New to Area: Seeking Game

    I just picked up Pathfinder Core Rulebook and 5th Edition PHB and read them over the weekend. Both seem interesting, but 5th Edition has me really jazzed to try it.

    Hello Everyone! I'm a 36 year old Air Force veteran who has lived most of his life in central Illinois. I relocated here at the beginning of September after getting a job at Barton College in Wilson, NC as the Circulation/Technology Librarian. My wife works at the Michael's in Cary and we live...

    Career Guidance Help Please!

    Hi Guys and Gals - I need some help. My educational professional career to date has been somewhat aimless and meandering. Good news - I think I know where I want to go now. Bad news - my background does nothing for me. I have had a hard time figuring out where I want to go or what I want to...

    Does burning hands provoke an AoO?

    <joke>Yes, I would say burning your hands probably would provoke an AoO, espiecially if it was a 2nd or 3rd degree... oh I see... </joke> lol :D

    How is D&D of any edition realistic?

    I'm sorry to have offended you sir. I didn't realize that you would interpret debating logic, semantics, and other academic aspects of a particular essay as akin to character assasination. I have no intent to disparage your person and indeed have little knowledge of you with which to make any...

    How is D&D of any edition realistic?

    But you didn't point this out - at least not in a logical, clear method of communication. You quoted statistics based on the assumption of a highly skilled/experienced individual, and, while provideing no comparable statistics of a nonskilled/experienced individual in the same circumstances...

    How is D&D of any edition realistic?

    Um... If experience has no bearing on the situation, why is it significant that you point out in quoting statistics about it that the statistics assume person is highly skilled? This assumption would be irrelevent and not worth mentioning in that case. Also based on the wording in your note...

    Monstrous Races for PCs wishlist

    My number one player race request I really really want to see the Saurials again, they've been one of my favorite races (ok sets of races) for a long time now and I really think the way they've removed/redone "Level Adjustment" makes the saurials more playable than they ever have been before in...

    Developing a "points of light" campaign setting

    My hope is that it will avoid being too depressing precisely because the tyranny is also trying to disguise itself to better appeal to the common folk and that most of the "Banites" are just normal people who believe the outward dogma the church seems to espouse rather than being true enemies...

    Developing a "points of light" campaign setting

    My Points of Light Setting In my Points of Light setting Good and Evil have had their great titanic struggle and it is over. Good lost evil won. All of the good deities have been either utterly destroyed beyond any hope of recall or imprisoned/enslaved by evil dieties. Tiamat has...

    ENWorld Facebook Group

    Hello, I just created a group on Facebook called "ENWorlders" on the theory it might be nice to get to know the wonderful folks here in a different context. Drop by if you'd like! Josh

    How I Stopped Worrying and Learned To Love Standard Plusses

    As my father always says as he chuckles, "Don't confuse me with the facts, my mind is made up!" :D

    WOTC! Give us an update!

    I actually did apply to this back on the 11th, I hope I have a snowballs chance in a 450 degree oven for 45 minutes... I'd love to have a job that I enjoy doing, which I think I would enjoy this one immensely.

    D&D 4E 4ed leveling on gameplay

    This seems to me to be an extraordinarily huge leap of logic, an assumption made with very little factual support since we have very little fact. I concur with Shilsen (as I often find myself doing - he is very wise) - it would seem far better to wait for additional information.

    Are you excited about the Forgotten Realms setting changes?

    I'm a fan of the changes and the original. I will play in both - more places, ways and ideas to play in is never teh problem - the reverse however is bad. In short - I don't care too much about the "sandbox" I'm playing in as long a I'm getting to play. As far as making "changes" I just see...

    To what degree is the Realms still Greenwood's?

    Does this mean that Mr. Greenwood is a poor writer or that you just don't like his style? If you've never managed to finish Moby Dick or Ulysses or War and Peace does this mean that Herman Melville, James Joyce, or Leo Tolstoy are bad writers or that you just aren't fond of their style? Just...

    1/2 elves lost their feyness

    Maybe they're just letting tensions build to prepare for the release of the new D&D movie, "How Stella the Half-Elf got her Fey Back" :lol:

    What Unique Schtick Do You Think Each Power Source Should Have?

    SOrry for going the humor route... but I'd really like to see a "Green Lantern" power source... :lol:

    1/2 elves lost their feyness

    I'm sorry, but I think that most power gamers would far rather have the extra feat and/or extra skill point rather than the open Favored Class. As far as power in 3x goes the feat is king/queen, skill points are a duke/duchess, and an open favored class is a small barony near the edge of the...
