Barbarian: Dwarf. You could also go gnome with the Con bonus and half-orc with the Str bonus, but the extra Con and no Str penalty of a dwarf is appealing. Humans could use the bonus feat, the skill points aren't that important. Bard: Half-elf or human. Cleric: Human. Maybe dwarf. You can...

5 ft. 6 in., and I *think* weigh about 140 lbs. I haven't stepped on a scale since 1995. I don't want to know the exact number. I do keep myself to a 2500 calorie diet. Whatever I eat, I can't go over 2500 calories in a day. It's a little weird at the gaming table; I sometimes eat a bunch of...

True story ... RttToEE, moathouse, the party is getting slaughtered and the sorcerer is the last one standing. He runs for the lift to escape, chased by a fiendish dire ape, and he only has his cantrips left. The ape reaches him, and the sorcerer casts prestidigitation to make his own eyes glow...

Downtown Minneapolis is fine, if a little pricey. There's a fair amount of activity in the Warehouse District. Saint Paul does have the Saint Paul Hotel, but as said before, Saint Paul is boring, except around Midway.

I didn't ask for your rudeness. And not a single item you posted supports your argument; I'm well aware of the awaken spell description, as you can see from the original post. I think the Con roll being missing is an oversight (or, as Psi said, it should be an oversight). The tree has ceased to...

Of course, that's the almost automatic choice for me -- of course I gave up Stunning Fist. Improved Grapple works much nicer. Oddly enough, it's the 2nd level feats that give me the most pause. I'd want both of them.

Trees are plants, not constructs, and alive. According to the SRD, if you do not have a Con score, you are not alive; you are an object, a construct or undead. An awakened tree, while magically imbued, is still alive, and thus would have a Con score.

I'll cut to the chase. I am in a one-off Epic game, and my druid would want a few awakened trees around. How would I determine their Con score? The awaken spell gives the mental stats for an awakened tree, but says that otherwise it is an animated object, which has no Con score (because it is...

Yeah. At Bluff +65, two women at the same time would be nothing. Deviant Boy would have nothing on me. :D On a more serious note, does this guy have the Leadership feat? I figure that the guy would have to have a Leadership score of at least 18, which means 40 followers, and it goes up as he...

The Mall of America is in Bloomington, which is the largest suburb (or second largest, depending on how you classify Saint Paul), out by the airport. The suburbs by the airport (Bloomington, Burnsville, Richfield, Apple Valley and Eagan are the major ones) get a ton of airport noise (and even...

Arksorn -- Underpants gnomes do NOT provoke an AoO from the target if they win the opposed Hide v. Spot checks. :)

This actually came up yesterday, and I was the affected player. Our group ranged from 7th to 9th level, and we were facing a group of 40 War1. I was playing my 9th level necromancer, and according to Wizards, I should have received no XP. They weren't much of a challenge for us, but I did quite...

Well, I actually like the new haste. Came in handy this afternoon, speeding most of the party. The changes to animate dead are subtle but nice, and my necromancer could cast it before he hit 9th level (which he did not; he hit 9th level and then could animate the humanoids he helped kill to...

I love 'em too (especially the spell sheets), but he was looking for a non-PDF sheet.

The Rosedale WotC store is gone? Darn. That actually had a good RPG selection, as opposed to the MoA one, which was not so good.

I think I should write Ugly Archer or Unfettered Askashic or the Palladium alignment crossover for D20 Unprincipled Anarchist. Well, the last one may bring a lawsuit or something. But it would add to the confusion.

Yes. A new edition every 8-10 years, with a small revision about midway between, would let WotC reap the sales benefits of a new edition, and still keep the fan base from going into an uproar as it is doing now. I expected the revision; it was just too obvious. I did not expect its scope and...

1) Fred would not have Deflect Arrows at 1st level. That's a bonus feat for monks at 2nd level. (Unless he actually spent a slot on it ... in which case, Fred's player is a little loopy.) Minor quibble; I know what you meant. 2) And what does Diana do? She loads another arrow and shoots again...

Wrong. The idea that feinting is tied to Cha and the Bluff skill are both very bad ideas. Feinting is a mark of skilled combatants. Not only does this have nothing to do with Cha, it has little to do with Dex -- it's combat experience. Really, the best way of handling this, IMO, is to have a...
