    "You can't assume things"

    As I look around my own house.... Every curtain has a window behind it. EDIT: Sorry. Every curtain has a secret window behind it.

    Who would like to be EN World's official WotC correspondent? [Paid Job]

    Has this been posted on the WotC forums? If so, great...if not, maybe that'd be good?

    Your Favorite Kind of Adventure

    Not sure if this is dodging the question or not, but it's my honest answer: I prefer none of, and all of, the choices (and pretty much equally). What I really prefer is an adventure that has all of the proposed elements to various degrees. Even short adventures have the capacity to involve...

    Motivations of a winter goddess: any ideas?

    I love the combo of ideas of Talos (chaos and destruction) versus Auril (permanency of winter). I played a demon of Auril (along with another pc who was a priestess of Auril) in a campaign. I only lastes 6 sessions (a divination to Auril led to my death, and the furtherance of discovery of a...

    Forked - Level-Based Systems and Non-Heroic PCs

    I see this as a playstyle issue, and I don't really get the justification for removing it from the game. I mean, yes, there is a chunk of the game that you might not play if you don't want to play it...but that's also the case for epic levels which seem to (even in 4e) have very little support...

    "Oh god what is that!"

    It was a creepy house. Not quite a haunted house, but close. We were playing by maptools (virtual tabletop) and skype, and they were moving their figures through the rooms, exploring. They'd just been in the room with a hundred dead-eyed dolls...and they walked through the parlor, with...

    Tracking sales.

    I'll say this... It's been a VERY tiny dataset so far...just a week or two, depending on what sourcebooks were tracked when. This is going to require time/patience for any kind of results, for whatever their merit is. But, I'll also add that the Neverwinter setting hasn't been added as...

    Good ideas. Updated.

    Coolest fighters in movies, and their non combat powers? 101 of em if we can.

    This is somewhat forked from another thread. The idea is that action heroes are cool not just because of what they do in combat, but because of all the other cool things they do, and who they are. If this were implemented in Pathfinder, I'd use it somewhat like sorceror bloodlines. In 4e it'd...

    D&D 5E (2014) cancelled 5e announcement at Gencon??? Anyone know anything about this?

    pemerton You responded with two interesting points that I wanted to address. 1. I was somewhat presupposing combat and roleplaying were not entirely overlapping (I wouldn't go so far as to say exclusive though). I think I still do. There is certainly some roleplaying in combat. In more...

    Tracking sales.

    I thought the same thing! I wanted a direct comparison, ideally. I suppose it's some library/dewey decimal sorta issue that complicates matters. I just know I tried and it wouldn't let me, saying it was a game, and not a book...while all of it, really, are books and games. Like I said...

    D&D 5E (2014) cancelled 5e announcement at Gencon??? Anyone know anything about this?

    First the planar deal, now the bmx bandit and angel summoner argument. Look... In 3e there was a power disparity between wizards and fighters. at levels 1-4 fighters were better than wizards. at levels, say 5-10?, they were about the same. at levels, say beyond 10?, but certainly at...

    Tracking sales.

    A bit tired of the endless debate as to how well products are doing and which are doing better than others, I decided to look into whether it was possible to discover actual data beyond that which we have. Here's what I found: Sales Rank Tracking for Author Book Sales on Amazon | NovelRank...

    Who would like to be EN World's official WotC correspondent? [Paid Job]

    I'd think Mudbunny would be a good candidate for the position. He is a volunteer on the WotC forums and really has his finger on the pulse of what's happening at WotC, as well as on their forums. I don't know if you'd consider his volunteer, but official, position an issue in terms of conflict...

    Sentinent Items

    I looked it up after the OP posted it. I didn't find very "official" sources, but I believe, from the online sources available to me, that the definitions are: Sentient: self aware; able to think Sentinent: able to sense; able to feel

    D&D 5E (2014) cancelled 5e announcement at Gencon??? Anyone know anything about this?

    Here's a link to the original rumor, or the rumor of the rumor, on this site: http://www.enworld.org/forum/4e-discussion/309804-scooping-morrus-site.html Anyone have a link to anything better?

    Releasing a (held) touch spell on yourself?

    I agree he'd physically have to touch himself (e.g. if he failed a save versus hold person rather than a flame strike, he would not later be able to use a held spell on himself while paralyzed). There is no action sequence where he would have ended up alive (unless he was already injured prior...

    Sentinent Items

    Interesting thoughts. (Also you taught me a new word. I knew sentient, but not sentinent.) I think that, usually, they don't. However, I could imagine, just as it is rare for a sword to be sentient, it might also be rare for a sentient sword to be sentinent. It'd be interesting to have, say...
