Why are you still in this D-Bag's game? Clearly he is not qualified to DM anything.

I am looking now at my bookcase of 3e (and 2e) books. I've spent a lot of money over the years on D&D. Most of this material has been used as a Player.

PF is Paizo's house rules for 3.5. And some of those House Rules are rather undesirable to some of us. I like Paizo a lot, but I prefered them when they were running Dragon and Dungeon mag.

Yes. Oh, you want textual backup for that? Why? You already have "well, Brew said I could..." and that should be more than enough for any reasonable DM. :D

I wonder what Monte has in the works going forward. I remain generally apathic towards 5e. WotC has an uphill battle in impressing me enough to earn my gaming dollars (though I'm still picking up 3e books I missed :p). I realize that may come off as negative, and perhaps it is. I hope 5e will...

Maybe I've been playing it wrong, but Prot vs [alignment] effects do not have to detect you as [alignment]. If you are the appropriate alignment then they function against you. I would be interested in seeing text that says otherwise.

I started in 89. It was a confusing time, in retrospec, my group used a mishmash of 1e and 2e materials. This continued for the entirety of my 2e gaming. While I am aware of some minor differences between 1e and 2e, they were for the most part backwards compatible. Which early edition had the...

Go for the girl... and pass off the reins of DMship to somebody else (not her) for awhile. You can probably just say "I need a break from DMing"... or "I want play for awhile".

A game in which one or more people play a strange bunch of homeless people in a Dark Ages + setting. Where one of the major goals per session is to meet strange new people, kill them, and then take their stuff. On occasion there might be a dragon and or dungeon for this misfit party of homeless...

Tactile Telekinesis. That is how Superboy does it. And he is a partial clone of Superman. If it were up to me, Superman's (supergirl, superdog, etc) would be explained like this as well. Supposedly this will be the case in the new Superman movie reboot coming out in the near future.

No. Look at the alternative? Lowly evil bard straight up *can't* sneak into Fort Celestia to rearrange its tapestries. Then again, Fort Celestia is probably covered by a Forbiddance (vs Evil) in every possible 5ft square... and Mr Evil Bard would just explode upon contact anyways...

Round robin DMing used to be more common. It works great, with the right DMs.

oops

This. First I see if the crunch is compatible with what I want to make, then see if the fluff is relevant. If not, I talk to the DM about how I am changing the Fluff (for obscure races, its rarely an issue). Fluff is mutable. Then again, so is crunch :p Well... 1) Default elf gets +2 Dex, -2...

"Do not throw the (vorpal?) arrow, for it will return against you".

Dandu: Hit. I think she had a 7 or lower Cha (and RP'd that very well). Sekhmet: Oh, cool. So he kinda did invent the (modern) Hobgoblin.

Time to work on a Retroclone?

Psionics can (to my experience) outshine the Big 5 in limited ways, but are inferior in all other ways and Warlocks are pretty gimp. Tome of Battle gives nice things to meleers, but some DMs just can't wrap their heads around non-casters getting nice things. A level 15th level Fighter (a...

In our ongoing Pathfinder game we had a 1/2 Orge barbarian who refused to wear armor. And she went out of her way to make herself bigger. She got hit. A lot.

Earthquakes and the like in Sigil would be a serious "hey, what the in the Nine is going on here!!"
