    Party Choices...

    I voted Psi; because I'm all about 3.5 psionics, but all those are attractrive combinations. At first I was of the opinion that any theme at all in a party makes for gaming goodness, but then oodles of hella fun has been had as part of ragtag mishmashes of freaks, too. So, Psi by a nose.

    Is mapping a lost art with adventurers?

    I've never even tried to map dungeons, even when others suggested it. It always seemed to be too much of a bother to stop the game so that one guy could make a wrong map of a dungeon we would end up getting lost in anyway, due to the map being wrong.

    And then suddenly...

    Seconded.

    Favorite Dump Stat for Purely Roleplaying Reasons

    I dump whatever stat fits with what I'm making at the time. The most fun I've had due to a dump stat was a character who had a CON of 2 ... and a d6 hit die. There was a certain thrill in knowing that every single battle can and probably will be his last. He never did die, though it was a short...

    Sexuality in your games.

    For the most part, we play a light-hearted beer and pretzels game(well, usuallly its beer and pizza) where it doesn't come up much. I did use a heterosexual relationship between a new PC and an existing DMPC to tie him to the group easily. We discussed it beforehand, and it worked well...

    Feats: Not enough or too many?

    Someone sigged it, but I'll repeat it: Drowbane is correct.

    Party NPCs

    I had a DMPC for my clericless party, but no way did she overshadow anybody. Due to my consistently abysmal rolling, not only does no PC fear death, she could never hit a damn thing either. She was affectionately(or more appropriately pitiously) known as the Doomed Cleric. Eventually I got...

    The RPG Class Test

    Spellsword 55% Combativeness, 30% Sneakiness, 73% Intellect, 27% Spirituality Aggressive, but with the brains to back it up: You are a Spellsword! Score! You have a prestige class. A prestige class can only be taken after you’ve fulfilled certain requirements. This may mean that you're an...

    How to Upgrade My Magic Item?

    I've seen a couple ways of doing things like this. The Kensai PrC from CW puts XP into his weapon to improve it; Legendary Weapons and Item Familiars grow in power with the character wielding them. These two you can find at http://www.d20srd.org/indexes/variantMagic.htm. So dey.

    Is There Much Age Difference In Your RPGing Group?

    Around 15 years, i think, though I'll admit that I don't know everyone's ages. It's 15 years at least. I know that much. That's not the largest gulf I've seen in practice. The 12 year old newbie in the same group as a 60+ yo DM comes to mind.

    High Level Enemies: Epic or Near Epic?

    Get out of my brain. While it still may be some time before I stat out any BBEGs(players are currently just reaching 5th) I don't thin I could not put at least one mind flayer in there. And a lich. And some orcs.

    Have You Introduced New People to RPGs?

    Me too. Like el-remmen said. If you can't find 'em, make 'em.

    Cursing

    I had a friend in HS like that, too. He was so casual about it, other people hardly even noticed. It was kind of wierd when he did it infront of my parents and they didn't even notice. Anyway, I found that ranting like Yosemite Sam was a fun replacement. Razzan-fraggle grappin-sackin...

    Illithids. Definitely Illithids.

    Who is Gauderis?

    Ah yes. Thank you Grey Stranger and Gilladian. I thought he might be a Klingon warlord from ST:TNG, but couldn't find anything on it.

    Who is Gauderis?

    I've had this name going through my head for the last few days and I can't remember whereit is from. Maybe the uber-powerful ENWold hivemind knows who Gauderis is? Thanks.

    Excited to Die: Do you keep backup characters?

    I find that if I'm playing a PC and I make a backup one, or even have a good idea for a new one, it seems to curse my current character who soon meets an occasionally humourous demise. Thus it is something I try to avoid doing.

    Are you a threadkiller?

    I officially declare Aeson NOT to be the killer of this thread ... it might be me though. Sometimes I do that; not even on purpose. Or porpoise. Or dolphin. Threads seem to be very fragile creatures, but I s'pose we should be able to infer that from the name. Oh, and Reveal can bite Rel ...

    D&D mega-campaign with all the options turned on?

    Of course, since that's a given.
