I voted shapeshifting - mainly like Daasul, because I think there is scope for nature casters in the cleric, warlock and Paladin classes, but shapeshifting is different. Therefore its uniqueness is worth keeping.

Every game is played in isolation. Your PC is not entering into a Miss Multiverse competition with anybody else's PC. More importantly, s/he is not going up against the other PCs at your table either. It's a collaborative game. It's also a fantasy game. Most of all, it's a game. Not a contest...

God, Paladins are awful. I mean, I know that the whole minimum stat scores/LG alignment requirements from AD&D days have gone, but oh, how the stench of it lingers. To me they're still the corn fed squeaky clean high school valedictorian quarterback with the lantern jaw and all the girls who...

Morgan Freeman is a Bard. Just listening to that voice reading the telephone book could inspire anyone. Sent from my iPhone using EN World

I love the AD&D Bard: the true multiclassed character, following a path through different trades in order to be admitted to a select band of exceptional individuals. The grey box Forgotten Realms is full of references to bards, and you get the feeling they are a secretive and very rare group of...

Yeah it what if magic is, say, the Internet? One guy gets his Internet from BT, one from Verizon, and so on. It's all the same just different delivery mechanisms. Sent from my iPhone using EN World

Cast the spell. It tells you where the steed is. But to get there you have to cross the Plain of Agonising Exposition and battle your way through the Caves of A Thousand XP to find it. Boom. Summon Nag is now Conjure Adventure! I'd be tempted to make it only castable as a ritual, in a holy...

I quite like the bard concept (Fflewder Fflan ffan) but I dislike the musical instrument mechanic. As I understand it they don't need to be playing the instrument, just holding it, which seems weird. If they gain their magic power from manipulating music, holding the flute is meaningless...

Tormyr you forgot deflect missiles...gotta love being able to catch an arrow and kill the archer with his own weapon! Sent from my iPhone using EN World

Having played a Halfling monk I can say that it is both undisputedly meta gamey and amazing fun. With 4 attacks a round using FOB I have on more than occasion rolled 2 natural 1s and rerolled for 2 crits! Our table uses max weapon damage+damage die+stat bonus for a crit so it got messy but very...

I played in a game where PCs started at level 5 and took the usual time to level up to 6 but the DM gave away magic loot like sweets. I mean it was fun but I felt a little weird being SO powerful. Sent from my iPhone using EN World mobile app

GOLDEN HEROES! Sorry about the caps, it's just you kind of have to deploy Movie Trailer Guy voice whenever you talk about GOLDEN HEROES. Great game. In terms of board games - Judge Dredd, Cosmic Encounter (albeit the new very expensive edition), original Talisman, Dragon Warriors, not...

The Clap All intimate relations, solo or accompanied, generate a loud slow mocking handclap in the sufferer's vicinity, rendering performance impossible. Often deliberately transmitted by the police to those convicted of peeping tommery.

Isle of Dread??

But I'd love Gamma World. I would be so all over that.

"Dust" as in "Stardust" as in "f-you Space Pathfinder, have some Spelljammer" "Midway" couldnthem be Sigil?

A D&D tv series in the same mode as Table Titans.

They are cursed with a taste for human(oid) flesh. Which they eat raw.

Cast Hex on yourself. Then shift it when an enemy appears. Works well if you are of the good-aligned-but-tricked-or-otherwise-forced-to-deal-with-an-evil-patron persuasion. I can picture a blood cut of the off hand's palm as a sacrifice/penance first thing in the morning (casting Hex). Visually...

Guys I'm so sorry time has not been kind of late and I haven't been able to contribute. Consider me stepped aside. Sorry.
