I thought this was going to be a thread about vampires faking their own vampiric perma-death. I had images of a pile of ashes on the sidewalk with a small sign reading "Oops" sticking out of it. "What if you "wake up" and they're in the middle of your autopsy?" Kill them all. Don't succumb to...

I would either: a) Have no problems with graverobbing if it is for my lord... it's for my lord after all. b) would have problems and would send the expedition to find treasure elsewhere. b) would have problems and stage something which would cause the lord to ban his practice of graverobbing...

Are there any rules in the game for things like, a cap to the height of the arena in which it's fought? Length of time that passes before participants must interact with each other? Pre-start information regarding opponent, opportunity to spend "winnings" or something to tailor items to them...

An idealistic one would be full steam in destroying the Anathema for the good of the realm and the preservation of the Immaculate Order. Would an fantasy idealistic medieval catholic inquisitor, upon finding the devil incarnate, decide to join him? If anything, it would take a member of the...

One of these things is not like the other, One of these things just isn't the same...

Little too close to a dwarf for my tastes. I'd rather have a suboptimal half orc that stands alone in its bonuses (as inferior as they may be) rather than have players going "Well.. If i'm going to be a plate wearer I may as well go Dwarf, while if I'm going light armor, I may as well go Half...

I agree that he misinterpreted the rules for Knowledge. With knowledge, if you beat a DC of 10 + monster's HD you remember some pertinent information about them. He just had you see something. For every 5 you beat the DC by, you get another bit of information, so if those Scions had 1-3 HD...

Absolutely =) I just always looked at trying to beat Mask of Winters like trying to flip gravity, or make the Wyld the center of the world.. or make the Celestial Mountain of the Blessed Isle an innie instead of the outie of creation. Diff'runt strokes.

I'd go against the idea of disallowing the better classes for NPCs if the players are playing demigods. Really, if they are going to be that powerful, they need a world filled with hardy, strong, heroic mortals to face, or they'll just walk all over it. That or fight hydra all day. Either no...

First, I know this is a d20 website, but I think we need an Exalted Message icon =) As for the story.. How can they possibly fight off Mask of Winters? is he less powerful in your campaign then plotted out in the Abyssal book? The way I've heard of him, he's basically the Dnd Equivalent of the...

I was pretty "Bwah??" at reading Stannis for a Paladin. I also was a little disturbed at having Melisandre being Evil... I'm sorry, but the absolutes of DND alignment just don't work so well in SoIF and I hope they're not present. Sure, she may be evil, but she's so much more complex than...

Nice.. I hope you get a very very big birthday cake when you're raised. =) Included in the temple fee of course.

I agree that to really "own" something you have to feel both the positive and negative impact of what's going on. If all you get are the good things to the fullest, while the bad things are buffed from you by some strange way the world is working around you, it's almost like you're PCs are...

Nod, I agree that this system opens up a strikingly different cinematic effect to combat. I was just figuring that if he wanted people being thrown back for being dealt more than 20 damage, he was going for that type of environment. Whether or not it's a "cheezy" thing, wire effects being bad...

Almost.. heck my cleric is on death #5- the price of being effective and being a healer in combat :) With 11 con, I'm about half way there, and I'm level 9. as for the original question, quirks are fun until they are not fun. Options 1. Mutations due to imperfections in the mortal ability to...

heh I've been learning the Knockback and Knockdown rules for Exalted so this thread got my attention. It's a nice effect, designed in Exalted for cinematics more than effect, although Knocked creatures are usually stunned (-2 to stuff, not dnd stunned) by the effect. in that game, you make a...

Well dwarven mascots can stand outside of McFungal's with it offering samples :)

Realize that his perspective and yours are quite different on this matter. You may have some kind of rapport with these "idiots" and may be in their good graces. This fellow however, posted a thread, and it was basically hijacked by people accusing him of the most heinous of internet crimes...

"I ready an action to shoot anyone who comes out from behind their cover." or "I delay my turn till my opponent and I go simultaneously. If he comes out from cover, I lay into him." I don't really see why things that can be worked out with applications of normal tactics require feats to...

I had a dream the other night that I was a swashbuckling handsome prince on a royal ship of the line. I was thinking about returning to the academy back home when my tongue felt something odd on the inside of one of my molars. I fiddled with it for a moment, and a little sliver-like shard of...
