I've played a halfling Druid, which was fantastic. It so fit the bucolic ideal. The abilities so fit the hobbit paradigm. I've played a halfling Fighter - he was one of three brother halflings, the other two were a druid and a rogue. The character was stupid and thought he was a cavalier...

3: Elvis Presley Quoted from Wikipedia Elvis Aaron Presley (January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977), often known simply as Elvis and also called "The King of Rock 'n' Roll" or simply "The King", was an American singer and actor. Presley started as a singer of rockabilly, borrowing many songs...

Yup, Walkabout and Logan's Run. What a great body of work, IYKWIMAITTYD! ;)

You're right. Gnomes were tinkered, now are neo-techs, Dwarfs were Gullied and now don't sell novels and Halflings were kendered and now gypsied. Methinks they have something against the smaller PCs. Damn sizists!

Hmm, what kind of fish would that be, then? if it is a fish with small scales then it could be quite pleasant, getting batted by the thing, all nice and cool. Just the thing on a hot summer day. This was tried before, in Birthright. No gnomes as a PC race. I think there was one reference to...

There is an online game, Kingdom of Drakkar, that has a door with a sign on it Opening the door erased the character. The game developer eventually 'locked' the door due to so many complaints from people who had heard from other players that it was an accurate sign but 'wanted to...

Elves, even female elves, have chest hair and they braid it? :eek:

Oooohh, Space Mountain, dude! and how many elves get to co-habitate with cute little brunettes? ;)

Birthright did elves well, making their reaction to humanity range from hatred to mere abhorrance due to the humanity's having taken the instruction of magic and used it to force elves off land and destroyed the forests for humanity's benefit. Dwarves were still cooler because they had dense...

You take the job to get income, and the side benefit is that you are now in a great place to network. If the job includes classes, take them. Build your skill set to allow you to be more valuable, proving this to your manager and others by taking those classes. When they have job fairs for...

I had a wizard with a lousy Con, who died due to failing a save versus baby dragon breath. I rolled up a dwarf wizard to maximize the opportunity for hit points. The only thing I didn't do, to keep the DM from hitting me, was take Toughness. the Wizard had a toad familiar, which gave a Con...

English - it will take words from any language that permit it to communicate about something it did not have an easy lexicon for. Especially American English speakers will no longer consider the language the word came from, it's just another word.

Batman always wins these things, that is why I vote for Indiana Jones :cool:

1) Why do you create your own settings? Peer pressure. :) When I started gaming in '79 at least 8 of the 12+ usual players had their own homebrews. The expectation of other players was that I would come up with something. It was in the late 80's that I was gaming with a different group that...

I first got to play due to finding a fanzine published by some college students with an article about D&D early in 79. The guy described the game and at the end, put his phone number if anyone was interested in trying the game! Man, were things different back then! I was the only one who...

Gorilla Age of Comics lists something like it - gorillas on the cover of comics. If it helps sales, go for it!

So if they want to keep the historical connection to an Indian name of some sort, is there something that is not offensive they can use? If not, then they should come up with a new name, trademark etc quickly. The thing I thought Indians found offensive about the Braves was the mascot and that...

Why? Most of this board is not edition related. And if they have an SRD for that you can still stay up with things to express an opinion.... even though D&D players find it hard to form opinions! :lol:

not really. Being broke blocks becoming bound by books, Bubba. ;)

Batman usually wins these things. He's always a good bet to make the final four etc.
