    Your favorite "villain" race and why?

    I like Drow (which I've liked and used since the old 1e Fiend Folio and the D1-D3 series). I also like gnolls. Gnolls are very underused. Of course, one of my players keeps asking if it's a grassy gnoll... :rolleyes: hunter1828

    [OT] How much of history do we really know?

    From Random House Webster's College Dictionary: history [1350-1400; Middle English < Latin historia < Greek historia - learning or knowing by inquiry, derivation of histor - one who knows or sees; akin to Wit(2). wit(2) Archaic for to know [before 900 AD; Middle English; Old English witan, Old...

    [OT] How much of history do we really know?

    That "someone" would be me. And yes you can. Facts are facts because you have verifiable, cross-checked, solid documnentation. One source does not a fact make. Two that say the same thing are getting there. Three or more and you're on to something. If you have but one source that says...

    [OT] How much of history do we really know?

    It should be remembered (or known) that often as time passes and researchers dig into the past that new and previously unknown original documents will come to life. This often changes perspective and interpretation immensely, as the previoulsy unknown material fills in blanks or clarifies...

    [OT] How much of history do we really know?

    There is historical fact and there is historical interpretation. Historical fact is "what", historical interpretation is "why". Many of you are getting the two confused. Fact is far more important than interpretation. Fact should be solid enough (if indeed it is fact) that it isn't...

    Valar Project, Inc. just sold my email.

    That is one of the rudest, most offensive things I've seen posted on these forums in a long, long time. hunter1828

    Just make it up

    Making stuff up on the fly is part and parcel of being a DM, at least IMO. If I need something non-specific (people, monster, item, etc.) I just wing it, keeping notes as I go so if I use it again, at least there is continuity. The only thing I have trouble with on the fly is names...and my...

    Valar Project, Inc. just sold my email.

    That was uncalled for. It's clear this is either a unique problem or a misunderstanding. It's also clear from Lupa's posting right above yours that Valar is on to this and attempting to get to the bottom of it. hunter1828

    Valar Project, Inc. just sold my email.

    Sounds exactly like what happened to a bunch of people with Yahoo!, Hotmail, and many, many other internet services. It's why I, as many others have pointed out, use a seperate e-mail address for such things. And since I haven't been inundated with tons of new spam (just the same old spam) I...

    What stats do YOU have? What's your Alignment, Race and Class?

    I'm a True Neutral Human Bard STR 12 DEX 14 CON 10 INT 16 WIS 12 CHA 12 Other than the fact I've always seen myself as Neutral Good, this seems to be about dead on. hunter1828

    [OT] Sad: the man in black is dead... (merged)

    Growing up in Tennessee you can't help but like (love) Johnny Cash. He's a state hero and for a Tennessean to not like him seems almost unpatriotic... Anyway, my grandmother, mother and father all loved the man's music. My father and mother met Johnny and June three or four times in the late...

    an attempt to discuss the actual *content* of the BoEF

    Submissive Deameanor actually reminds me of Gollum as presented the movie version of The Two Towers. As a Feat, it is something he could turn "on" or "off" as necessary to avoid unwanted attention and to fool people into trusting him. Just my loose interpretation. hunter1828

    an attempt to discuss the actual *content* of the BoEF

    The Imagist base class and a few feats and spells, but all should be just as easily used with Charisma if you so choose. I like the idea of Appearance as nothing more than a way to distinguish looks from personality (too many people I've gamed with say things like "9 Charisma? Dude, he must be...

    an attempt to discuss the actual *content* of the BoEF

    The BoEF Appearance is not a feat, it's an ability score similar to Comliness introduced in the original 1st edition Unearthed Arcana. hunter1828
