But what if your deity is a deity of vengance?

I kinda agree with the majority. This falls more along the lawful axis then the good evil axis. Id say Lawful whatever, good or evil.

I think my head exploded.

For Yondo Drusilla heads for the wagon stooping at the back, were she retrieves a metal pot, presumably stew. She looks at you with a scowl. "Playing? Bah that is but a trifle." She sets the pot down. ""Our companion? Pugh was his name. A constant source o' trouble. Always quarrelin' for more...

For Fatcoin: You move as carefully as you can from your position, finding cover as you can. Crossing the road, you make it to the treeline some 70 feet from the others. After waiting to insure youre still unseen you search the treeline and the nearby area. The voices from the camp grow fainter...

For Colm: When Johan begins his tale, Telion leans toward you a says in a low tone, "We would have no need of Drusilla of it were not for Johan, Brother Colm. In addition to being a freak," he says smiling, "I am also a trainer fo beasts. When we travelled here from Greyhawk this past spring...

OOC: This reply for everyone but Fatcoin. In addition see next three replys for individual posts for Fatcoin, Yondo and Colm. Johan regains some of his composure as Drusilla heads for the wagon, with Yondo following. "I am quite sure..um friend dwarf.. that the twins would appreciate any help...

..are creatures of the hills and forests. I play Castles and Crusades now and thats they way theyve been imagined..the older AD&D way. Tricksters, related to foxes (with requisite long nose) sneaky and they have connections with burrowing creatures. Goodbye tinkers and steampunky inventors.

Ahh I bow to your research fu! Thats exactly what I was looking for. I always wondered how much the early 70s post Bruce Lee kung fu explosion effected D&D. Now I know. Thanks. And again, my question wasnt meant as an insult to monks. Its fantasy- you can justify anything, from druids to squid...

Very true. Whats the saying?... Sometimes a cigar's just a cigar?

Yep run away. Theres being flexible and open and then there just being plain inconsistent. I sense a godmodder in your future if you stay. Your voice is probably right. If he cant stick to anything in chargen, do you trust him in combat?

I dont hate the class, although I often see it getting slammed. I guess I was just wondering from a historical perspective. Historical as in the history of D&D and game design, not history with a big "H" Perhaps this is a job for Col Pladoh!

Well this is second hand gossip. Several ppl in my WoW guild, who play a rather wide variety of games have given some pretty negative views of the Matrix. Several played in beta. Alot of it seems to be on odd design choices, ie classes that are simple translations of fantasy types: fighter...

When did the monk class make its first appearance? And well, why? Just wondering as I go through so older rpg material. I have nothing against the class myself. But D&D seems to be at least in its beginnings based on European style fantasy. IIRC monks and assassins were in the Blackmoor rules...

For Fatcoin: From your position you can not only see but hear most everything in the clearing, mostly because Johan projects so loudly. Also, the wind has shifted and the others voices carry toward you, faint but clear enough for you to make out. You can see across the river, which varies at...

Any Monster Book-the 1ED AD&D Fiend Folio a favorite The Planescape books The 3e Handbook of the Planes was pretty cool

For Fatcoin: As the scene below plays out, you observe the clearing and the strangers with a practiced eye. All you see are the five figures in the clearing. You do not see any pennents, flags or insignia. You do notice the first wagon, the one observed form the ridge, has the same writing on...

It does seem a bit slower..Ive recently started a Castles and Crusades game. It took about two weeks to start from posting first recruit notice to finally starting. Not a long time for a non d20 game, but my thread was semi active once we got going and still didnt get knocked to the second...

True, but like in many others things only peripherally DnD related, youre just as likely to get bad info as well...myself included. Things like samuari swords are often like getting advice on vintages of wine..youd probably need a specilaist opininion :) Neat that ya found one at a garage...

My uncle before hed passed on was a big sword collector. IIRC the big problem with Showa swords is obviously if they were made traditionally, non traditionally ( and slightly lower quality) or machine pressed. Given that in 1935 Japan was at war in China, it would depend also if the sword was...
