The drakkon (?) race from the Wizardry series is probably the best example, given how much inspiration Wizardry takes from D&D. Aren't Laguz essentially the same as D&D's shifters?

The paladin's purpose is to sword things in the name of his/her god and thus only draws the god's attention (and favor) when swording things. I don't find that outside the realm of verisimilitude.

Given how much I already know about 4e and how much I will know by the time the books are released, calling it "sight unseen" would be an exaggeration, but, yes, I do intend at this time to buy at least the PHB as soon as it is released.

Can't say for sure until I see the book, but, at this time, I see no reason not to give the scalies a shot.

Hehe. "Crafty Spider Expert."

I was going to vote for free attack, but Emerald Phoenix Initiate Reactive Crystalwing Attack is much more flavorful. :P But I don't have any problem with "opportunity attack," which seems to be used alternatively with attack of opportunity in the 4e previews.

But Leaping Panther Strike is better than both.

Agreed. There are too many interesting encounters that become a non-issue when even a single PC has darkvision. Plus, 3.X gave too many creatures darkvision (all aberrations, constructs, and outsiders).

Never. I came into the game shortly before 3.5 and never had the desire to play any earlier incarnations.

"Such recklessness already," Cleyra remarks under her breath, sighing. But...she is right. And that honesty may prove valuable.

I find it most interesting that, beyond tier, none of these feats have prerequisites. I also like how easily summed up all of these feats are (just one or two short sentences without pedantic explanation). As such, I hope these examples are indicative of feats in general.

Grey what? :P

Cleyra tries her best to listen carefully to each word of the story. Under different circumstances, she thinks, this would all be very interesting, but at the moment, I just don't see the relevance. She left home intending to embark on an adventure, yet now she finds herself listening to these...

Like the rule/concept; hate the name. Voted "Good."

Swordmage

Cleyra follows Enko's example, taking one cake for herself. Even after the walk, she hasn't quite regained her hunger since breakfast.

And to you as well!

A nursing student is the closest I've come to any of the above. I've had the pleasure of playing D&D with more artists than scientists.

There isn't much of a real difference. A written reminder is almost exactly what this is, but this suggestion provides a bit more formality to it. A consistent format. I like it; in fact, these "quest cards" are something I wish I had thought of years ago. Yeah, it's MMORPG-derived, but that...

Cleyra ponders for a moment upon the question. She has many reasons, some more personal than others, but it was only at her mentor's advice that she decided to join the expedition. I can't say I'm here because I believe they need me. I want to seem trustworthy, not pretentious. Better give...
