    Staff Wand and......

    I think it should be Staff, Wand and Hat! Every wizard should have to wear a big pointy hat. Otherwise how can you be sure he is a Wizard?

    What should WOTC do about Golden Wyvern Adept? (Keep Friendly)

    I get where they come from. it is as easy to drop their names from the spells as it is to adjust the name for a feat. it is as easy to remove the spells as it is to remove the feat. How is this different to a feat? The feat is not tied to an order as no order is presented. Go watch some bad...

    Tieflings of Melnibone

    Except that the Melniboneans arent human or descended from humans at all and were powerful due to their alliance without their relationship with the Chaos Lords. The ancient Melniboneans also made pacts with the Animal and Elemental Lords which Elric calls upon throughout the series. He may...

    Tieflings of Melnibone

    Not really. An ecxess of Law was just as bad as an excess of Chaos although Myshella one of their greatest Champions is certainly far more benign than say Jagreen Lern or Yrkoon.

    Tieflings of Melnibone

    Not really. If you look at how they are presented in the novels as opposed to the RPG they are for the most part utterly decadent, inhuman, uncaring and alien to the humans of the Young Kingdoms. They havent really done anything to anyone for hundreds if not thousands of years and if left...

    What should WOTC do about Golden Wyvern Adept? (Keep Friendly)

    I am curious about those who hate the name. Did you have similar problems incorporating Mordenkainen, Bigby, Drawmidj (bloody stupid anagram names), the Eye and Hand of Vecna, the Apparatus of Kwalish, Keoghtoms Ointment, Ehlonnas Quiver or a chunk of the Greyhawk Pantheon? That is just the...

    Why is Forgotten Realms the first setting?

    I absolutely agree, Tieflings are a clear fit not just into Iuz but also the Great Kingdom under Ivid. Assuming that Greyhawk receives any new product finding somewhere to squeeze the Dragonborn in to will be difficult, maybe the jungles of the south or the deserts to the west. As far as home...

    Why is Forgotten Realms the first setting?

    Because settings take huge amounts of developer time and FR still has huge areas which nothing has ever been done with which can be used to drop new stuff in to. The more difficult insertion will be in to Greyhawk assuming it continues to exist as a setting at all.

    AD&D Style Multilassing

    I think the term build often has a rather negative connotation applied to it. This may or may not be justified in any particular case. When talking about concept and 3e and multiclassing the main difficulty I found was finiding enugh class levels to accurately represent your character...

    D&D 4E Not going to 4e

    Booing? You must have been at a different Gencon presentation to me then. Certainly there were scattered grumbles as well as applause. Mostly the place was fairly quiet. To suggest there were "tons of unhapppy booing fans" is seriously overstating the position. I would entirely agree that...

    The Doomed Bastards: Reckoning (story complete)

    It looks bad but I suspect this might be our first Mass Heal moment. Do Healers get it as an 8th level spell?

    30th-level PC versus kingdom--who wins?

    Arguably that involves giving the titan more than one command allowed by the direct control portion of Gate.

    30th-level PC versus kingdom--who wins?

    It depends on what your definition of "win" is. Do you need to leave the town in smoking ruins with it population dead? Alterantively is slowly destroying the area and dispersing the population through famine, war, drought or disease acceptable? If the latter then any spellcaster can do it...

    Greybeards & Grognards 3: Assassins, Paladins, and Party Harmony

    Or to sit down as a group before you even begin to play the game and discuss just what sort of game you, as a group, want to play.

    D&D 4E "Mook" rules for 4E monsters?

    The concept of mook rules generally means being able to throw a lot of weak opposition against the PC's whose main purpose is to serve as a way for the PC's to shine. This varies from systems where they have very little health to ones where they are literally nothing more than scenery to be...

    D&D 4E "Mook" rules for 4E monsters?

    I am curious, how did you make it work?

    Shapechang question

    I would say yes and yes. If this is the most broken thing your player can come up with using Shapechange then count your blessings.

    The Doomed Bastards: Reckoning (story complete)

    This cant possibly bode well. Great update LB. I hope with the move into Book 5 we might see a little more of Varo?

    The Heroes of Icemist (SmallBeginnings 2)- Interlude update 2/21/2008!

    Hmm, this is no good. Ive finished reading the SH from the beginning and there is not even the sign of a resolution. Give more updates please. Also, excellent work.

    The Doomed Bastards: Reckoning (story complete)

    Nice update, I'm guessing Varo by means of a Dream spell.
