    IQ to INT equivalent

    A friend and I just did the bell curve and came up with 1 out of every 1200 people would have a 18 Int and that is closer to the 160 IQ range instead of the 180. 160 IQ being 1/11,000. I don't necessarily believe in the bell curve method as I tend towards the 1/10 of 1% should have an 18...

    spellcasting BBEG

    Also do you have them always start out with 18s in their spellcasting stat? I guess this a typical outcome of modern day villans, where they are bigger, badder and meaner than ever. But I don't see all villans as "the most powerful person on the planet" so far. In fact I would say that 97.3%...

    spellcasting BBEG

    For Wizards, Clerics and druids that your PCs are facing how many of you specialize their spell selection to meet the characters with full force? Or how many of you cop out with Sorcerers? I ask this because my characters had gone up against a lich who was a necromancer, but I had some of...

    Favored Enemy (Your Race) question

    Agreed. And wouldn't the easiest creature to study be your own race making that a perfect favored "enemy". I don't see why saying its a favored enemy. Maybe it should be favorite 'prey'.

    Favored Enemy (Your Race) question

    I have a friend who asked why having your race as a favored enemy would cause you to be evil? He asked this because police detectives favored enemies (Enemy in the sense of getting bonuses to track and take out) is human, and they are not considered evil. In a human-dominated society would it...

    Arcane Archer question

    You may want to lean to stick with Wizard if you are an Elf as you would get XP penalties for choosing something else. Half Elf would be good if you wanted Sorceror. Bard/Fighter or Paladin or Ranger 3/4 combo works well and you can use a lot of the bardic abilities to help you out (Make...

    Pure ability, skill buy?

    I would rather have unlimited possibilities, or a official class creation (including prestige class) with a point buy system to create them just so there is truly unlimited possibilities, but that is just me.

    Pure ability, skill buy?

    I happened to be playing a cheap game that I found (Warlords Battlecry) and found that it did something with its character advancements that I really enjoyed. You got to choose a general class, a specifici class (at a certain level) and then you could basically buy any ability, skill, 'feat'...

    What's the strangest house rule you've ever heard of?

    Heard of, never played : 6 second rule. You had six seconds to 'DO' everything that your character needed to do. That includes roles free actions, partial actions, hasted actions, cleaving, etc... From what I understood the DM took about 5 minutes on his turn and the players had 6 seconds...

    High Magic - High technology, historical question

    Thank you so much for your lively discussion. I barely got time to read this and had some comments or maybe a summary to this whole thing. I agreed much with Dr. Strangemonkey but I felt that you tended to go towards the 'technology is inevitable' feeling. I was forced to agree on some...

    High Magic - High technology, historical question

    Can you have Advanced Technology or even simple technology advance from a high magic world? I ask this simple question because I try to think of the inventions of the past that slowly worked towards the technologies of today. Example: In a magical society how could you imagine a printing...

    Who's the coolest iconic character?

    One vote for Lidda. I played a Rogue (granted a human rogue) for 2 years because of her.

    That rat had 400 GP!

    Have a coin respawn spot for no reason. Here your players can go and just sit next to it and every minute the coins respawn and you can take them again. But it goes so slowly that it is no way to get a lot of money before the players get bored. *Sorry too much online RPGs recently. What I...

    Mucho Importante Spell Question of the Day

    Besides the obviously overstated title, I do have a serious question about certain spells. "Targets: One or more creatures, no two of which can be more than 30 ft. apart" Now does this mean that the caster has to see all subjects the spell effects? I ask this because we were playing under...
