I think that's supposed to be a "Pirate" "Argh!" as in his backup plan for the Warforged.

Kenji has at least one. Atlatl definitely at least one or two. Perhaps the druid intimidating that guy with a ball of string. I'm not sure Rackhir or Burne have really had one (aside from Burne's players write ups being a CMOA in their own right they're so funny). I figured I'd let others put...

There's a fascinating website called www.TVtropes.org. Which I warn you is an endless rabbit hole you can vanish into. It's basically devoted to deconstructing and categorizing all of the plot elements and twists in movies, tv shows and even real life. One particular "Trope" is The Crowning...

So what would you have done if the dragons wiped us all out? I'm guessing that even if some of us had managed to get away, the dragons would have hunted us down.

So that whole Trojan Horse thing he thought up, that wasn't very important then? He get's his own recruitment story in the Iliad. He does a lot of stuff in the Iliad and a fair share of fighting. He stole one of the artifacts from Troy that prevented the city from falling. Put his ass on the...

In the old incarnation of the show, the relationship between the Doctor and his companions was never anything other than platonic. The romantic involvement angle is purely from the new incarnation. If you're referring to the new series episode with Sarah Jane Smith, that wasn't so much implying...

Most of those violate these conditions above. The OP is specifically looking for char with no special training or skills or abilities (at least to begin with). Not just ones that aren't superheroes. Allmost all of the characters you mention do have special skills, training or abilities. Leela...

I would have to say no. The rod has to match the level of the maximized spell. Since if you were doing it in a spell slot, that's what you'd be adding the metamagic adjustment for empowering it to. However, this does mean potentially you could "swap" things around and get a rod of maximize and...

We've got legit licenses for all our stuff at work and once you do the WGA bend over, we've not had any problems. But there have been incidents where the WGA servers have gone down or false negatives get generated that have locked people out of their computers. Part of what I was also trying to...

All I know is that when I was trying to use Automatic updates to patch up new XP machines at work, it would not show me anything past WGA, when I got up to that, until I had installed it. Maybe I just didn't spend enough time trying to find a way around it. You're also at the mercy of what ever...

Popping up a notification that something is being installed, is called basic security. If you do in fact do the things you say you do, this should be obvious to you. You don't want stuff being installed on a computer without notification that this is happening. Likewise you don't want changes...

Yeah, except that Apple doesn't make you prove you don't have a stolen copy before they'll let you get the latest security updates, doesn't demand to install spyware on your machine (WGA) and most important of all doesn't use Direct X. Which is one of the the biggest sources of security flaws...

Given that by most accounts from my PC using friends, it is an absolute pain in the neck (You know unless you turn off most of the security features). It's stability isn't really that significant. Actually, Apple's prices are comparable if not lower than what you would pay for a similar...

"But perhaps I can find one or two other skilled people willing to accompany us." That's PERHAPS, not definitely. Nor do we know how likely they are to be effective against THIS dragon vs some generic "young punk" dragon. It's not a question of if it's possible to beat the dragon. This...

Cook's Garret Novels are generally pretty light hearted. There's Robert Lynn Asprin's Myth-XXXX books. If you've never read it, Phil Foglio did a comic book adaptation of the first novel that is even better than the original book, which was already terrific.

You keep talking in the plural when describing the people who MIGHT coming with us. This is not a "typical" dragon in any way, shape or form. I remain highly dubious that unless he's got something really spectacular stashed away, one more fighter type is going to change the balance...

Hehe. That's pretty much all down to Gareth. Nobody else has any interest in going back there actually. He's even suffering from this delusion that having persuaded one guy to go back with us, who said he'd see if anyone else was interested in going, means that there is now a vast horde of...

Actually it isn't entirely true that Xander had no powers, there was the Halloween episode where they all became what ever costume they were wearing and Xander became GI Joe or something like that. At least some of the knowledge/skills stuck around, because it was what let them use a rocket...
