    I'll talk to Mark and tell him to get to work on it!

    RIP - Eric's Grandma

    Is there perhaps a charity or organization to which folks could make donations in her memory?

    Neutral Paladin

    That depends on your worldview. Remember her history. She was there when Lodoss was first cursed and saw firsthand what happens when one power gets out of control. In order to insure that that never happens again, she takes it upon herself to actively maintain the balance. Look at the...

    Neutral Paladin

    Karla, the Gray Witch from Lodoss Wars, was true nuetral. :) A true nuetral person dedicated to nuetrality will sometimes even side with evil if he/she believes good is getting too powerful. It's sort of the logic "Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely". Even a good kingdom, if...

    Hmmm, we might have to let you adjust which letters to use to get out of that one!

    OGL and copyright

    If I have a question that can impact whether or not I get sued, I TALK TO MY ATTORNEY. As I have always stressed, if you can't afford a lawyer, chances are you can't afford to defend against a lawsuit. Is there anyone who DOESN'T have an attorney in the family, or a friend that has an...

    [Devil’s Workshop] Abortion and D20?

    I would think such would be absolutely useless for player classes. As would be the classes in this product. As has been noted, I can't fathom a campaign where such classes would be practical. And as far as NPCs go, again, do you really need these "classes". Just make them experts and spend...

    Neutral Paladin

    In the Forgotten Realms, paladins of Helm are Lawful Nuetral. There is nothing in any of the rules that says you have to follow a political power. Hell, you don't neccessarily have to follow an actual god. You can be a paladin of a "cause" or a code of conduct. It is up to your DM if he...

    Star Wars Naming Game

    Ah, ever create the perfect Star Wars character, but fail to get the full Star Wars effect by having a proper Star Wars name? One of my fellow writers, Mark Chandler, came up with a fool-proof (OK, maybe just foolish) way of designing a proper Star Wars name. Star Wars Name How to Determine...

    The Principled Assassin

    Assassins lurk in the shadows, waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike their targets. Feared by anyone with enemies willing to pay the price, the assassin is a tempting archetype for any gamer. But often the class is not a practical option in campaigns where being an assassin also means...

    If you were king, how would equip your kids?

    I would think loading up a first level prince with that sort of gear would have the same effect as loading up any first level PC with that sort of gear: it would create a false sense of security and end up sending the overconfident fool to his doom. A vorpal sword in the hands of a character...

    What to do with dirt-phobic PCs?

    Things tend to work out on there own I have actually suffered this problem with players. I have two of my female friends that play in my game and they often get freaked out when I start describing something "icky". (I'm a female, and they embarassment me with their girliness :\ ). I just...

    So how do you play cohorts, familiars and animal companions?

    Familiars and animal companions, unless they are awakened or intelligent, are under the control of the PC. It's up to him to decide if he orders his pet to attack, hide, Cohorts, awakened animals, and intelligent weapons are always under my control. These are distinct, separate beings with...

    Congratulations to Josh Benton

    When one of my writer friends e-mailed me to say he had been nominated for a reader award at Preditors and Editors, I started checking out all of the nominee lists. Imagine my surprise when I found one of my contributor's nominated! Congratulations to Josh Benton for getting nominated for Best...

    Stupidest Things DMs Have Done

    Don't worry. Some of us assumed that's what you meant! My boyfriend learned very quickly not to expect special treatment during the game. Doing your share of the chores may keep you from sleeping on the couch, but it will not help you against a red dragon! Now I have a friend who has been...

    Why is preventing psioninc DC augmenting bad?

    I just don't allow psionics at all. That settles that. :cool: While 3.5 fixed a lot of the problems with psionics, the whole thing still feels like an afterthought that doesn't really gel well unless you are running a psionic game. But getting back to point, if you are putting limitations...

    If animals could talk, which kind would be gamers?

    My dog games. He plays a dumb mutt that follows his master around looking cute and stealing food from behind the other PCs backs... Oh wait, nvm. That's what he does in real life.
