Really? I'm looking in the book at the warforged racial traits and can't seem to find it. Just "A warforged has a natural weapon in the form of a slam attack that deals 1d4 damage." Got a page number on that? (Not saying it doesn't exist, just that I don't see it in the Warforged traits in...

I can't say much about mechanics, since I haven't played a bard for any length of time. But one of my favorite character concepts has been Laskaw, a ghostwise halfling (FR) bard. He came from a tribal community, but has an unusually high eloquence, calm demeanor, and respect for varying...

I believe Monte Cook had an article on this when he was initially plugging Arcana Unearthed (which has d6 as the lowest HD). He said that while developing 3e they knew d4 was not enough HP, but it was mainly precident that got in the way of changing it. If they upped wizards to d6, then they'd...

This is nothing RAW, since I agree that it is ambiguous, but I tend to wing it when determining if the charmed person knows he was charmed. Mostly, it's dependent on the degree of change (a lifelong enemy of the charmer would almost certainly know, while someone who was simply Unfriendly may...

Never particularly had a problem with it. I don't try to think of them as "species," since I doubt D&D meant to express them in such scientific terms. Why can humans breed with orcs and elves? Because they can! Though, if a DM decided to throw out half-races, I wouldn't exactly be up-in-arms...

The interesting thing when I think about it, is that TN should have more motivation troubles than CN, supposing you don't go for the "balance" approach to TN. At least CN could theoretically be interested in toppling dictators, or taking down The Man. TN's interest? "... eh, more money would...

Only listing D&D books as the topic says, but the other books I have are d20 and I don't have many of them anyway. Core Rulebooks 3.0 Core Rulebooks 3.5 All five "splatbooks" (S&F, T&B, etc.) Monster Manual II Fiend Folio Savage Species Ghostwalk Psionics Handbook Expanded Psionics Handbook...

Damn, my scores aren't quite THAT good. My scores respectively are 12/51/150. Haven't played in awhile, but I can't see myself getting much better.

I would never do it, personally because I tend to overdo it with the rewards naturally anyway. Not nearly as bad as a chaos diamond, but still more than they should be getting for their level. Plus my group has more of a "money goes almost entirely towards equipment" mindset. Not that that's...

There's quite a bit of Cronos out there, and even the rare Dekar, but I have never ran into another CronoDekar. Though sometimes I go with a different name anyway, such as Laskaw or CDekar.

A setting which inspires me to build a character with an interesting background, and the DM not being afraid to use stuff that is personally important to my character in the game and integrate it into his campaign. Setting should preferably be a "shades of gray" world with interesting...

I hadn't thought of it that way before, and it makes sense. One thing I was wondering though -- suppose the player really wanted to get through to space 1 and was willing to Bull Rush or Overrun. Which one would he do the action on?

Personally, I'd say the monk can't take INA. Of course there's nothing RAW afaik to back this up, but I believe the "effects" part refers simply to other things that can change natural weapons, such as spell-like abilities and any hypothetical supernatural abilities. I'd imagine if they meant...

I have to agree with joe here -- I personally just find PKing unfun and makes things difficult. Even if I had the right people doing it, I can't see it being anything I'd get any enjoyment out of.

I have to agree that it's a matter of Good vs. Evil, not Law vs. Chaos. As long as he doesn't carelessly or intentionally make his allies diseased, it seems quite fine with me for Neutral on the Good/Evil axis. The only thing that would hamper his lawfulness is if employing disease somehow...

I'll be 23 next month (on Sept. 11 interestingly enough -- and no, it doesn't really bother me), and I just got my undergrad from the University of Kansas in Psychology in May. I was born and raised here in Lawrence, Kansas, living with my parents, two younger sisters, and 3+ pets at any one...

Haha, nice d00d! Though more critically, I'd say that they should probably have Clumsy or Poor fly movement, and that natural attack should probably be something like "slam" (it's been awhile, so I don't remember too well what their natural attack was like). Also, how easy would it be to...

Only one choice? Ouch. I think what bothers me most is when a GM focues too much on other characters, but another thing that really bores me is when a session isn't varied enough. I like roleplaying and I like fighting, but too much at a time gets me bored stiff. For that reason, I don't...

Supposing the character can speak in some sort of sign and isn't deaf, I'm not seeing anything in the spell discription that would prevent animals from understanding you. All it says is "You can comprehend and communicate with animals," and doesn't denote verbal communication. Well, then again...

Complete Warrior has Clever Wrestling, which gives you bonuses to your grapple checks against creatures larger than medium-size to somewhat compensate for their size bonus, though it does require Improved Unarmed Strike.
