For the ultimate investigator, I would recommend taking a look at the urban ranger/psion (telepath) combination, and using Expanded Knowledge to cherry pick a couple of powers off of the Seer discipline list. Cheers, Vurt

I've run a couple, and I'm playing in one. They are fun, hands down, but it can be difficult to keep track of what your character(s) can do. In practice, it's not too hard to come up with appropriate challenges, but really it depends on your player character mix. Some combinations of gestalt...

Off the top of my head, if Henry Rollins can do it, I don't see why a bardbarian shouldn't be able to. :p Cheers, Vurt

Would you, could you, could anybody dig up a quote, either yea or nay? This strikes me as something important enough that should have made it into the FAQ, and somehow hasn't. Cheers, Vurt

When posting a new review and explaining that it's part of the Review Project, it just seems to me a little vague. How about we formally name the thing, either "Crothian's PDF Review Project" or the "EN World PDF Review Project". Either sounds less hokey to me. Suggestions? Cheers, Vurt

Actually, it's not absolutely necessary for apples and pears to be poisonous. The sentence does still work, and grammatically so. No, it can work. It just usually doesn't work like this. What if the apples and pears were in fact poisonous? What if they had gone rotten, and eating them...

Can you use a spell or magic item in order to satisfy the prerequisite for some feat? For example, can someone with Str 11 have a bull's strength cast on them in order to take Power Attack? Will Gauntlets of Ogre Power work? My gut feeling says you shouldn't be able to, but the PHB doesn't...

Your argument is slightly flawed, in that you have switched the original sentence with one that presupposes you are correct. Now if you had written "apples, pears, or other poisonous fruit", you may have had me. :D Actually, I think the wording implies that effects are usually temporary...

By that logic, feats are also class features. i.e. if A == C and B == C, then A == B. Cheers, Vurt

1) Run? In spite of the psionic feat's preamble, I don't think you can run, per se, since run is a full-round action. Emphasis mine. We simply play it that you can use one move action per round to move along a wall. 2) I don't see why skate wouldn't work. "Sideways" becomes the new "down"...

I'm of the opinion that feats are not "effects", and thus the monk does not qualify for Improved Natural Attack on a technicality. Mind you I don't think I'd have a problem with a feat written specifically for monks that would do the same thing as INA, so long as it included a provision that...

Thanks. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything. Cheers, Vurt

If a ghost is "destroyed" with a disruption weapon, is it gone for good or does it reform in 2d4 days? Here are the relevant RAW: Cheers, Vurt

I also found the original Review Project thread only after it was around 170 posts long, and by that point figured that Crothian had a bazillion reviewers already lined up. But I also realized that it wouldn't hurt to ask, so I fired off an email and sure enough, I've been sporacially reviewing...

Howdy Hal, Thank you for posting your clarifying comments, as it's always good to hear from the authors. I apologize if my review came off as sounding overly harsh, that was not my intent. There's lots to like in the product, even if it doesn't really fit my group's playstyle. With regards...

By Daniel M. Perez Published by Highmoon Media Productions Pages: 19 + OGL + advertisements Fully bookmarked Bardic Lore: The Villa of Mysteries is a short little PDF detailing a fully fleshed out location that you can drop into your campaign world. What you get is a fair amount of backstory...

Cool and creative use of spells! I'd allow it. That said, if the item was changed to take up a different slot than originally, I'd rule that the forms are no longer similar enough to have a permanent duration. Cheers, Vurt

The Ironics: Pregenerated Characters for d20 Fantasy Games By Eric Jensen Published by E.N. Publishing Pages: 60 Fully bookmarked The name of this PDF is a not-so-subtle riff on the Iconics, that is, those characters such as Krusk and Mialee and Lidda that have been with us ever since D&D 3rd...

I've learned that the quality of editing can make or break a product. I've also learned that it's really easy to write about a product's faults, and hard to adequately express when it does something well. Writing a review for something you enjoy can just fly off the fingertips. On the other...
