well bonds, ideals and skills should all be covered by 13th backgrounds. you could add flaws - although I am hesitant. Flaws seem like they can/will be used as an excuse to be a ****" which breaks my cardinal rule of gaming "don't be a ****" They would have to just be added in. (If you trust...

Now I need to go back and read the bugbears, the rest of these were amazing creations that caught my attention while I was reading through the book. I can't wait to start my next 13th age campaign (im waiting for 13true ways to ship, and a PF game to hit a stopping point.)

My Archer just went with +2 enchantment, there are just so many penalties to compensate for.... (deadly aim, rapid shot, cover penalties) he is still planning on a variety of bane arrows once someone in the party can craft them. This would work best if the DM allows crafting/purchasing lots...

I got my address confirmation for a Bestiary pre-order on 6/22 Shipping soon I hope!

Fighting on top or inside a monster. I ran one fight on a pile of bones at the bottom of a chasm. 3-4 Skeletons would reassemble every time they were killed out of the pile, as the PCs searched for a armored dwarf corpse in among the orc bodies. When the PCs killed enough skeletons to bloody...

nah you just move the fiction. "Daily" doesn't mean a literal day. Its more like a restore point. You regain the powers and recoveries at important story points. There is a suggestion of giving the PCs 1 power, and a recovery for a good nights sleep, while still saving the full restore for an...

sounds fun! Im glad the whole group had a good time. how did the terrain/enviornmental effects work in the bath house? When I ran a convention game in 13th age, I left a couple of the villian choices as blanks so I could fill in someone related to icons chosen by the players. It wasn't a...

This. it is a fan supported huge collection of info. I assume you started with the Darksun 4e book? crucial so you don't have to reinvent the wheel - defiling is one of the defining things about the setting, but the mechanics were always a little wonky. Old adventures: Don't play Freedom -...

I ran an adventure inside a (3.5) robe of useful items - it was a heirloom item left to a PC after the mysterious disappearance of his uncle. They had to fight a rope (giant, constricting), a lantern (containing hostile lantern archerons) and of course found the uncle's body. Later it was...

Fail snails are the running joke for my PF game - all due to this paragraph: "they have no spoken language, flail snails communicate using two different means, both completely silent. The first, an elaborate sign language of waving tentacles.." One of the guys kept wanting to learn this fail...

micromanaging spell effect areas. If I have to listen to our bard ask (the other players) again if he can hit 2 or 3 guys with a 15' cone im going to scream. at least our wizard was good at it. I just kinda eyeball stuff - it looks like my holy smite hits these 4 guys, and our bard. I'm...

you missed the shaman multi-class - for an additional spirit wolf. with a secondary feat it becomes a decent source of healing. keep in mind the other players (and perhaps DM) are going to hate positioning around your pack.

Cheese Knife +1 This metagame weapon is used by NPCs to separate PCs from their cheese. the wielder of this weapon can make a touch attack to deal 0 damage. Instead it removes one feat or spell effect from the target, for the remainder of the encounter. The wielder gains the benefits of...

until today. when I first started (Basic ->Expert -> advanced MM) I thought it the height of cunning to name a wizard Teesir (TSR) more recently I had an Paragon level Elf named PLEF. It was supposed to be a place holder, but it stuck. He was a fairly major NPC, and his death was mentioned...

two handed fighter archtype - it looks better than weaponmaster you still lose armor training for more damage, on both single attacks and secondary hits. Feats: vital strike when you can't make a full attack power strike, weapon focus, specialization and greater focus = default for lvl 8...

I knew that he only had 5' reach (unless enlarged) but I missed that the initial attack was made with strength. I guess I need to buy him a STR item. Its still -2 to hit, compared to using INT maybe I can talk the DM into letting me use INT for the the basic hair attack as well. I believe I...

So this guy was great at level 6: but the campaign moved onto level 8 before I could play him starting Runelord book 3 and he needs to be competitive. vs ogres with class levels (i am guessing) his last 2 levels are fighter (for BAB!) but i need 2 more grappling feats. He could also take the...

1) backgrounds - it varies by player, I had one that covered physical/social/and knowledge checks with 3 sweeping backgrounds (he also took extra back grounding as a feat) at least some of the time I gave him 1/2 value for his points, or flatly told him that in one instance or another it didn't...

Ranger with animal companion talent would be the best way to represent it. The only way to start with an effective beast ally. If you just wanted the skill then a background would do it. Famous Gladiator Beast rider of Axis Snow serpent rider of the northern wastes go nuts :)
