    Works just fine in iTunes for me, Vigilance. -TRRW

    Have you found Bo9S characters to outshine other classes?

    My last party was a Bard, Swordsage, Rogue, and Favored Soul. The Swordsage stood out in combat, but only because it's a combat class. It didn't overshadow anyone, because they all had their niches. Prior to that I ran a group of Fighter/Barbarian, Warblade, Cleric, and a Scout. The...

    Satyr - An excuse for rape, or an interesting creature?

    Speaking as a male sexual assault victim, I can tell you it's a scary experience. One that I'd like to forget ever happened. It did happen, and living with that is a large part of my life. However, if someone was using rape as a way to describe how debased and evil the baddies were, I...

    Are you optimized?

    My entire life has been devoted to the study of manipulating people and trying to take advantage of those stupider than myself. I work in a casino, so I'm pretty sure I'm optimized for my job. I figure, Warlock for Beguiling Influence, Marshal for inspirational speeches, and Bard for the same...

    D&D 3.x Venger - 3.5 stats?

    Blarg, you can't be an Archmage with only 13 levels of Sorcerer; you need 14. If they meant Wizard, I guess that's better... still, though... -TRRW

    [OOTS 479] Jaws of Life

    Actually, I wasn't referring specifically to OotS paladins, but paladins in general keeping their mounts in Pokeballs. I think that's where the confusion arose. -TRRW

    [OOTS 479] Jaws of Life

    You misunderstood me, monsignor. I'm still not sure how you got your conclusion out of my statement, but oh well. Good strip, overall. A Large Shark is, in fact, listed as a choice for a Paladin's Special Mount. Not too surprising a choice, really, given Azure City's proximity to water. -TRRW

    board game recommendations sought for GenCon demoing!

    Original post, mate. That's why it hasn't been mentioned. As an avid hater of board games, the few that I have fun with are usually the simplest. Tsuro is a good time, as is the card game Rook. -TRRW

    Rewards for filling iconic roles

    Actually, I'm pretty sure that the character idea I posted could rock all kinds of faces. I believe I'll use him as a back-up character. Round 1: Cast Blade of Blood, sacrificing 5 HP [Swift], Cast Shocking Grasp [Standard], Move. Round 2: Tumble into Melee range. Initiate Mountain Hammer...

    Critique my Character Creation Guidelines

    No, they just start at 1st Level with three times their class Hit Die in HP plus their Con modifier. When they reach level 2, they roll their Hit Die and get a minimum of half on the roll plus their Con modifier. It's a rule I pilfered from Star Wars SAGA. Makes the heroes into big damn...

    Warlock queries

    It's the Major Auras that are awesome (+1 on Melee Attack Rolls or DR 1/- at level 2? Yes, please.). Getting +Cha Bonus to all Dex based Skills and Initiative is just icing on the cake. Synergizes well with Dragon Shaman, as the auras are complementary. Plus, Grant Move Action? Sexy. -TRRW

    What options have you regreted allowing in your game?

    Quickling Faen Akashic with the right feats and stats can get +22 Sneak at level 1. Just sayin'. Also, I regret allowing the Dodge feat in as written. It really needs to apply to all enemies. -TRRW

    Need ideas for an interesting Necromacncer type

    Now, now, Nighty. I've told you a couple of times to lay off that silly FR 'Thayan' silliness. I'm Krynnish. :p Another Necromancer idea would be the archetypal "If I'm not the master of death, then someone much more evil will be. I couldn't stand the idea of some Evil douchebag controlling...

    Need ideas for an interesting Necromacncer type

    Man, Darkness, you used to be so cool. Besides, you don't get a say in your own nickname; that's the nature of the beast. I'd go for the "I raise the undead to fight for me, because it's inhumane to get living people to do the fighting. These people have already died once, what does it matter...

    Rewards for filling iconic roles

    Assuming I'm a player in your game, I just take whichever role is left. So a CG Human Warblade 3/Duskblade 1/Cleric of Kord (War and Strength domains) 1 with the following feats: - Practiced Spellcaster (Duskblade) - Practiced Spellcaster (Cleric) - Weapon Focus (Greatsword) - Power Attack And...

    Endless Attack Option for Casters: Mana Spark

    This has already been done much better by the Reserve Feats in Complete Mage/Champion. If you're really set on this as an option, here's a reworded version. Cantrip Assault Requirement: Ability to cast 1st level arcane spells. Benefit: As a Standard Action, the caster produces a small amount...

    JollyDoc's Savage Tide-Updated 10/8!

    Oh, Fatespinner makes sense. She's one of the most Machiavellian spellcasters I've read about in quite some time. It's only logical that she try to control the fates of everyone around her, bending them into the grand design she has planned out. "What? It made the save? Not anymore." -TRRW
