Aw come on, I LIKE playing ceptu. They're a pretty interesting race in my opinion. Dolphins may be a bit of a stretch, but some folks do play aquatic campaigns so they might be useful to someone. My least favorite race is probably the trusk, another aquatic race. Maybe there's a trend there...

Oathbound fansite the Hub is pleased to announce that the OGC races, prestige races, and prestige classes have now been posted. There are all kinds of Oathbound goodness to be found: Player Races Dwarf, Rockbiter (Ugruu): The ugruu were once great warriors and leaders who inhabited a harsh...

Great thread! 1. Bastion Press: Took me from an Oathbound junkie to fansite, playtester, proofreader, and sometimes writer. I can't say enough good things about this under-appreciated company. 2. Vanishing Goblin: Worked on their first Open Call, Rooms with a View. Very professional...

For 2e, I'd have to echo the majority and say Planescape, though I was mighty fond of Ravenloft as well. For 3e, Oathbound is hands down my favorite. It incorporates the alieness and scope of Planescape, and throws in a prison-world feel reminiscent of Ravenloft. The world thus far recorded...

Thanks for the input Sejs. As to why it was moved, I'm unsure. It took me awhile to find it since there was no indication as to where it was moved to. :\

Winter 2005. From the Bastion Press 2005 catalog: The Book of Curses is a 96-page sourcebook featuring: • Curses and Hindrances as part of character creation • Rules for creating new curses and making the existing curses that exist in the game truly terrifying • More than 30 new cursed spells •...

Well, I think adding the feat should cost me 50 gp :) But seriously, I had also considered the metamagic rod as a basis. However, I think the staff would be WAY overpriced if directly compared to this. As someone said, metamagic could apply to any spell, while this would specifically only...

My druid PC Ursa is going to hit 12th level very soon, and he needs himself a staff. For that reason I plan on taking Craft Staff as my feat. Here's my question: I want to make this a "summoner's staff" and have it grant me Augment Summoning (among other things). I can't find any guidelines...

aaaaand back on topic. As mentioned above, all the prestige races, player races, and prestige classes from the Oathbound campaign setting by Bastion Press can be found at The Hub fansite.

Bastion Press has the following coming out this year: Wildwood: a domain book for the Oathbound campaign setting, but can also be used as a stand-alone setting. Its huge and packed full of great stuff. Complements Into the Green really nicely if you want a strictly forest/wilderness based...

Correct. The 3.5 conversion will absolutely be published as a PDF. It is unlikely it will see a print run, demand notwithstanding.

The 3.5 conversion will be PDF, as far as I'm aware. Conceivably, if there was absolutely crazy demand, there could be a print run, but I find that highly unlikely (unfortunate, but true). The text should be mainly the same, the mechanics were obviously tweaked to match 3.5. There's been some...

I use Arms & Armor 3.5 a lot. Same with the Tome of Horrors for baddie, er, goodness. I'm a psionics nut so the Psionics Handbook and Mindscapes see a fair bit of use as well.

I feel your pain ecliptic, really I do. Unfortunately, market research clearly shows that color vs. black and white makes almost zero difference in sales. Believe me, this horse has been beaten to death several times over, and no one at Bastion was happy about the move; financially however it...

The Oathbound forum on Mortality was closed because we launched OB.net - unfortunately that site seems to be down this weekend for some reason. We're trying to figure out why. As to updates, we're discussing updating more regularly, in particular putting out previews of upcoming products (such...

For the record, its always entertaining when your party's monk is enveloped in an ooze screaming "Flamestrike me, flamestrike me!". And yes, if the monk couldn't evade my flamestrikes and I had to do something else, we would have had issues. I'm very much the fire-and-lightning druid, and we'd...

I haven't run it completely, but I've done a lot of reading on the module. First of all, I really enjoyed it. The Brotherhood of Ooze is, hands down, one of the most entertaining and just plain fun groups I've gotten to play with. With the warm fuzzies aside, let's be realistic; the module...

Alright, you've sucked me in. Keep going. :)

Another vote for Oathbound. All the elements I enjoyed from the 2e published worlds, rolled into one.

Always on invisibility? Hardly. I can still be spotted, quite easily if the opponents know to look for me. Anyone trained in magic knows flamestrikes only come from clerics or druids. If my party's cleric is fighting or doing something else and the flamestrikes keep a 'comin, then its pretty...
