    (Pratchett's Discworld) Creating a Carrot (human raised dwarf)

    Previous posters have stated that it is a flavour thing and it is, however not completely. I've actually DM-ed a Dwarf raised by Humans player in an old campaign. What we did was seperate inherent traits (Genetic) from learned traits (Upbringing). Genetic: +2 CON/-2 CHA Medium Size Base Land...

    I hate to DM

    What we do in our group is to cycle the DMing however we do it in large chunks. I've just stopped (last session) after a straight 6 months - I chose an appropriate "cliff hanger" point in the campaign and am going to take a break to play with another playing DM-ing. I announced my nearing burn...

    Errata on Leap Attack

    So they went and did a 180 did they? You know it is Customer Service at Wizards that keeps great forums like EN World in business. How on earth do you pay a support team that doesn't support? Ah well its a mystery of the universer I guess. Happens everywhere.

    Errata on Leap Attack

    Umm there was no confusion in the original version or the errated version ... you have to Power Attack to get the bonus. And I seriously doubt they mean to say you don't have to Power Attack at all to use Leap Attack since its a pre-requisite and the bonuses are derived from Power Attack. As...

    Errata on Leap Attack

    Umm sorry but that answer is incorrect no matter how you read it. For Power Attack, sacrificing +6 BAB using a 2-handed weapon gives you +12 damage. So the answer that Leap Attack makes it x3 = +12 is wrong. So Leap Attack would give either 18 (you only get your orignal BAB again) or +24 (it...

    Errata on Leap Attack

    Slash ... it was originally x3 PA in Complete Adventurer but it was errata-ed as I've previously posted. So far, it looks like a 2 handed power attack using Leap Attack AND the errata of +100% leads to the equivalent of x4 sacrificed BAB.

    Errata on Leap Attack

    Ridley ... they errata-ed it to state which leads me to the question I stated. +100% is completely different to x2 -> x3. So if anyone can give me an answer to this one I'd be grateful.

    Errata on Leap Attack

    With the errata on Leap Attack (+100% of bonus from Power Attack) instead of x3, does that mean that if I have a BAB+6 and I am using a 2-handed weapon, and I use it all for Leap Attack, I get +24 damage or +18? Because the way it is worded goes something like this: Power Attack you double...

    Slightly Confused About Templates

    Great ... thank you.

    Slightly Confused About Templates

    Okay, Inherited Templates must be applied at first level. No problems there. You choose the base race, for example Human. Does a "new" creature with the template gain the human bonuses? So for example a Half-Dragon human ... does it have the +1 feat? The +1 skill point? Or does it lose those...

    Variant HP Methods?

    Actually I use this very method IMC. Players have the option of keeping their hit point roll every level or letting me roll. If they choose me to roll they MUST take what they receive. I keep rolling down the chain until I get worse than the previous roll (not including the original roll by the...

    New Psionic Healing Powers (recovery thread)

    Then instead of inventing new powers use the old method of just converting the spells into powers. So convert all the cure/healing spells from the Cleric list into Psionic Powers. I think the book was called Of Sound Mind or something. D

    New Psionic Healing Powers (recovery thread)

    Maybe I'm misunderstanding something here, however doesn't the base Empathic Transfer take care of hit points, poison, and disease? Then you heal yourself with the range of personal powers available. The reason they didn't allow direct healing in general was not to overshadow the healing...

    Variant HP Methods?

    If you want to lower hit points in general why not do the following: Your base hit die is racially based. The "weaker" races like elves would use a lower die (favoured class is a good place to start with d6 or d8 being average). Instead of your class giving you hit dice it gives you a modifier...

    Psionic Familiars

    Hmmm ... not to sound negative but isn't a psionic familiar really just a "different" psicyrstal according to your description? Yes it gets a lot more abilities (25th level) however it is a psicrystal nonetheless. Why would someone take a psionic familiar over a psicrystal? D

    Skill Pts idea: all gain +2/lvl, all lose -1/lvl after 1st

    Actually there are many RPG systems that use something similar. However instead of saying you MUST lose 1 rank, you make a roll against a set DC to see if you keep the ranks you have or if you lose 1. You can of course tailor the DC and as d20 seems to be based on the +2 concept, it really...

    Help Pricing A Knowledge Boosting Item

    Greetings All, unfortunately with the ENWorld accident I don't know if there were any replies etc to my previous post. So here goes again. I would like to know what kind of pricing a magic item that gives a bonus on Knowledge skill checks would be like. All Knowledges in this case. I was...
