    Help! I need a name for a Legendary Sword of Righteous Justice!!!

    So I'm working on a Legendary Weapon (UA) for the party's paladin. I've got the basic abilities and entry requirements fleshed out. But! I don't have a name for the blasted thing. Here's the basic info: For a non-Scion, it's merely a +1 Cold Iron Bastard Sword of Sundering, which grants a...

    "Yeah, Goliaths. We spent all night coming up with that one."

    Or you could simply go with the explanation that the sounds Hu and Roo are such holy sounds that they are never used except for in the name of "the Blessed People." --G

    Render-Born: a homebrew template. Balanced?

    In the darkness, you can see a faint greenish glow. As you bring your torch in range, you see a common skeleton covered in a transparent, viscous green ooze. Render-Born are common skeletons coupled with a weakly acidic undead ooze. Render-Born Skeletons are the unexpected result of frequent...

    Have you ever used the 10-foot pole?

    I actually had a character who used the 10' pole to great effect in our Planescape game. Of course, it was more than just your stock 10' pole. I had 2 10' poles cut into 1' sections that could be screwed together. In addition, I had several additional pieces that could be screwed onto the...

    Half-Celestial another revision

    First off, wow! That fails the first test for being balanced, which is: is there any reason not to take the template. A +4 LA for the above listed bonuses is a phenomenal deal. I'd bump it way way up. I mean, Flight is probably good for a +2, the Special Abilities are probably good for an...

    Forgotten Realms and The Great Wheel

    But Eberron does have it's own cosmology. It's just different from any we've seen todate. For example, certain types of devils and demons live together on the same plane, as do the angels . . . . It's just different see. --G

    Which character generator is best-E-tools or PCgen?

    I've been using Etools for about 9 months now and I love it. If I had a laptop, I'd love it even more! (it makes generating summoned monsters easy as pie!) Data sets average about 5 dollars, and have all the crunch right where you can get at it. But, to get 3.5 support, you've got to spring...

    I still believe in god, but god no longer believes in me?

    I'm not sure what your DM has in mind, but I have an RP suggestion. You've done the right thing, for the right reason, and you've had to give up your quest for sainthood in the process. The easy answer for the character is to also give up his faith as well. How's this for an even better...

    Rate Doom 3

    You know, I felt the same way when I started. I went out grabbed the Duct Tape mod, and I think it's a million times better. The light on the guns is bright enough so you can see what's out there, but small enough that it doesn't reveal the entire area. It only adds to the suspense. I'm...

    Trying to be funny with insults

    Felix-- The problem is that many of those people you describe aren't really that quick. They just think they are. See, if they were really as quick witted as they claim, they'd be able not only to compose the rapier jab, but also consider the likely emotional impact of their statement, and...

    Of Sound Mind and Expanded Psionics Handbook

    Sorry, PC-- It's time for you to admit it. The reason you haven't done it yet is because it's too much of a challenge. :D You're just going to have to accept that somethings are beyond your abilities . . . . (sits back and waits for the updated conversion notes). --G

    Journalism in Eberron - craft or profession?

    I'm going to make an argument for why journalism shouldn't be a craft. Craft skills, as others have mentioned, deal with the creation of a finished product for sale. I know of no journalist today who actually produces his or her finished product. There are a bunch of other people involved in...

    New rogue special abilities.

    If you want to balance these special abilities due to concerns that they're a bit too powerful for a non-PrC, why not require a feat as a pre-req. F'rex: Before a rogue can take HiPS, the character must have the feat Stealthy? Sure, Stealthy will actually make HiPS more powerful, but it's a...

    Khorvaire:Two Problems

    I just want to correct a slight factual error here. Karrnath isn't twice the size of Texas. It's nearly twice the size of Alaska! That means its nearly four times the size of Texas. Even so, Karrnath has nearly 4 times the population of Alaska (8 if you double the numbers to account for...

    Express, your SH is fantastic! I'm loving it. And your DM has a great handle for the genre (where ever it appears). I'm glad to see Redblock! For those of you who don't know:. Thanks much for sharing this with us! --G

    Weapon Illustration Sketches

    I've also got a request, but first some backstory. My grandfather spent a lot of time in the Samoan Islands. He brough back a trio of tribal weapons for my dad. The coolest of those was a Samoan Spear. It's got a very short haft, maybe 24-30" and tri-lateral symmetry when viewed top down...

    Weapon Illustration Sketches

    I see the Imperial Guard of the Flamingo Throne armed with these blades. Raised from birth as relentless warriors of the divine bird, they are demons in combat. Combining monastic training, martial prowess, and mental discipline, the Flamingo Guard may treat the Flamingo Blade as a monk weapon...
