Only if I can have my dragonborn warlock's eldritch blast come from his mouth, and call it "Imma Firin Mah Lazar!"

Bear in mind that is just the first level. It's entirely possible the rogue could get more class abilities at higher level. On the other hand, a lot has changed mechanically since R&C.

I personally like the idea that a monster like the Phane has several instant-kill routines that just don't work on the PCs. Why? They're epic, that's why. Let's say we give the Phane an ability to age anyone <level 16 300 years with a touch. Of what relevance is that to the PCs? Unless they're...

I've heard some complaints that there should be more advertising. Well, I was at Penny Arcade when I saw a banner ad to the right with the new, improved beholder! Sure, it was an ad for minis, but it prominantly said "4th edition." Normally I don't like banner ads, but it's good to see a bit of...

I ran a playtest and used pins and the multicolored pony beads you can buy in large amounts at any craft store. I had about 15 different varieties, but I was starting to run short during the black dragon fight (differentiating between ongoing bite damage and the acid breath was tough). Another...

From Dictionary.com: ad·ven·tur·er -noun 1. a person who has, enjoys, or seeks adventures. 2. a seeker of fortune in daring enterprises; soldier of fortune. 3. a person who undertakes great commercial risk; speculator. 4. a person who seeks power, wealth, or social rank by unscrupulous...

Seems like all you get for level 30 is a gold watch, a handshake, and a pension, courtesy of your epic destiny.

With the sample encounter for the succubus, my first thought was From Dusk 'Till Dawn. The encounter would be a sneak attack in a bar/tavern/whatever, with the succubus being a snake dancer and the assassins being her backup dancers. She doesn't have to hit AC if the PC accepts the kiss... :]

Hrm...does that mean the dragon on the cover WAS grey?

Pretty much. That's the best list of fighters I could find (at least those who are still alive) and many of them are multiclassed. But which ones are which?

Due to the relative low power of the class throughout the history of the game, there are relatively few iconic fighters in D&D. The ranks of the epic, godlike characters are almost entirely occupied by wizards, with only a few clerics. With the new edition, fighters are finally getting the...

No, the paragon of ludicrous character design is Tobias Bruckner, from Turok. A racist cyborg civil war officer riding on a T-rex, also cyborg.

Aside from the meatbricks she's standing on, I personally love WAR's art. The people are very detailed and realitic, but the equipment they wear is fantastic. In that picture, she doesn't look like some supermodel but someone who has actually been through a lot of battles. Honestly, I'd say he's...

I think part of the point of this is to give the gnomes more traction. They're more popular now thank to the "I'm a monster! Rarrr!" meme than they've been in years.

Perhaps we need to establish a tiered-core system: A-core is of course the PHB1, MM1, DMG1. B-core is for future PHBs, MMs, and DMGs. C-core is for DDI-released info, like the bard. D-core is for supplimental generic setting products (Martial Power, Draconomicon I, etc) F-core is for stuff...

It's more than just nocking two arrows. It's nocking two arrows and having them go in different directions! Physics just threw up its hands. The martial powersource has been described as "not entirely nonmagical." It's merely MOSTLY nonmagic. In this case, I'd say you're definately using some...

D&D has a long tradition of beardss, going back to Tolkein: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qM50TY9xl2g Are you trying to take away from over 30 years of beardness?

I laugh because it's funny. :lol: I cry because it's true. :( And Re: The music debate. D&D is METAL. Totally metal. Look at the resemblence between D&D bookcovers and heavy metal album covers. (not so much 3e, but 4e seems to thankfully be going back to that)

Elan is the least of the worries when it comes to edition change. "Sorry Thog, we can't bring you into combat until your class AND race are published. Right now you're in a state of flux." "Thog no like quantum uncertainty. Thog want fully exist!"

If you run a seafaring campaign, it's easy to make Points of Light: The islands are points of light, with nearly all monsters coming from the sea. Most monsters prefer the ocean, and don't come ashore except for food, sacrifices, raiding, etc.
