Make up whatever seems reasonable to you. There are no good rules for this. :)

I'm going to play the character, though I'm still deciding which ideas in the thread to use. And I may have to sacrifice some of them for playability -- my character's most likely going to have to be the main fighter. The other two characters are going to be a binder (from Tome of Magic) and...

This isn't going to help you pick, but all the classes are cool. I lean towards the greenbond, but any of them are fun. :)

When 3e came out, I had played Final Fantasy I and the Shining Force games. Coming from that background, I assumed that prestige classes would be *better* than the base classes. Since you often have to "waste" feats and/or skill points on things you would never otherwise get (like Widen Spell...

When you can, avoid the direct confrontations. Use stealth and try to get terrain advantages over your enemies. Sure, you'll sometimes have to go toe to toe, but use your strengths whenever you can.

I miss all the potions that were unique! Heck, I miss all the unique magic items. I like that there is actually a method to make magic items now, but I miss all the weirdness...

I like Ehlonna, and she seemed most appropriate to go with the alternate druid. But I might go with Fharlanghn -- it just depends on what 2nd domain I want. Chupacabra: Many people, including me, think dash is crappy because a +5 ft bonus doesn't seem worth a feat. Your mileage may vary. :)...

WotC hates those dirty little sorcerers, yes they do my precious. Hates them hates them hates them! Nasty little sorcerers don't need 3rd level spells and deserve to die while they cast their spells! Nasty, vile little sorcerers!!!!!!

Good to see you too, mang. :) That's one of the things I was thinking of, too. It's just such a standard part of fantasy -- it seems so *odd* to not have it in the core D&D rules!

I can't find my psionics book -- is Speed of Thought always active? What are the prereqs? The Lancer build is truly a wonder to behold. Thanks, Slaved and Heaven Shall Burn! I can't quite bring myself to use the Blade Dancer. It's *so* overpowered, but so much fun! Ah, well, maybe I'll...

Hypersmurf's explenation about how he thinks the rod should work -- at preparation time -- goes on for more than a screen of text. If you assume, however, that it is used when you cast the spell, the description of how it works encompases exactly one sentance. Therefor, it makes MUCH more...

I use the martial variant for rogues, too, and the wilderness one if wanted. Sneak attack is a fine ability, but I like feats better. Just my personal preference. :)

Interesting thoughts. And, yes, the elixir of youth was much better -- you just had to find more of them to keep yourself young. Frankly, I don't see how any kingdom in a D&D world would *not* be run by a semi-immortal, ungodly powerful being, with potions of longevity or without. If you get...

I don't have any errata on it, nor do I have the Spell Compendium, so it doesn't really matter if they did change it -- it won't be in our game. :) The "swift and deadly hunter" druid gives up wild shape for a bunch of other things, so I couldn't do the Shapeshifter thing with it. The WotC...

If I was going to munchkinize a character (and believe me, I sure as hell munchkinize every one I run!), making my character old to start with would not be how I'd do it. Even if I was sure I'd be able to reduce my age soon, the physical stat penalties would not make it a safe gamble at all. -6...

We have two games -- both on Sunday, each alternating. The one I run will be meeting tomorrow. It will be our sole game of December, I believe. So yeah, big time hit. :)

This thing is still going? Sheesh! The rest of y'all are a lot more persistant than me. :)

My daughter is named Ehlanna (intentionally changed from Ehlonna). I named here that in 1996 when Ehlonna was a very minor goddess in Greyhawk that most Greyhawk players had never heard of. I just thought the name was pretty. :) My son is named Corwin. His name comes from the main character...

Yeah, I might have *just* a 13 Wis, though -- I'm just using the class (or classes, if I pick druid, too) for the movement rate, with the spells as an interesting sidelight. (Of course, the expeditious retreat spell of the Celerity domain would get used.) Magic of Incarnum I'm not familiar...

None! :D I think I was here last about 9 months ago and seriously here who knows how long ago. I'm registered at GameCraft. I run the gaming forums at Kaytastrophe, but those are just starting up and are nothing to speak of yet. So, other than tonight, I'm not really anywhere any more. :)
