    Dragon Disciple: good for a Duskblade?

    I agree with you, dragon disciple is a pretty good choice for duskblades. I played a fairly capable Duskblade/Dragon Disciple/Singh Rager in a short game early in the year. Kaia Shouts (Roaring), fear effects and arcane strikes, ahoy! The only trouble was the lack of spell level advancement...

    Legends of the five rings

    Are you referring to AEG's d10 3e version, or the d20 version? If the former, I'm definitely interested as a player. As for DMing, I might be able to do that, though I have never run a pbp. I still have my notes from the last (face to face) L5R game, and that campaign didn't really conclude...

    Final Fantasy J

    Frida holds the staff in front of her, the magic released. Her knuckles are white as her hands shake, trying to hold it steady. Seeing Kyo's eyes clear, she allows her grip to loosen and she extends her hand down toward him. "You need a hand... getting up?" She asks, her voice quavering...

    Starting gold for your PCs

    I used to always give maximum, but have since revised it down to 75% of maximum.

    Do you keep players in your group who don't contribute?

    Maybe he didn't like being hazed?

    Elmore cover art for final issue of Dragon

    Yeah, I feel the same. I'm also somewhat pleased it's not a WAR cover.

    DM Types

    I'm a Duelist/Provider, in my opinion. I'm pretty good at making stuff up on the fly, so most of my players consider me a Plotmeister, even though I'm not (I would love to be one, however). :) I just love challenging my players (in various ways), because they clearly enjoy overcoming such...

    New Arcane Classes; Warmage, Beguiler, Dread Necromancer...

    I doubt you are the first to think of it. Personally, I got lazy halfway through designing a conjuration (summoning) specialist, since I couldn't decide if it would be based on a menu system (like an astral construct) or on a list of summonable beings(kind of like a binder's vestiges). If you'd...

    1st to 20th with same character

    Closest I ever got was 1st-16th level with a halfling rogue. I also had human warrior in 2e that went from level 3 to level 15. I've gone over 20th level, but only with a human psywarrior that began at 11th, and an astral deva pc that began at level 14. As a DM I'm never seen it. I tend to do...

    Is this legal?

    I think the UMD rogue is a heck of a lot happier than the other party members. It's not perfect, but certainly not an impossible situation. Considering the levels where a party might be facing evil goblin necromancer-liches, not really unreasonable, either. Multiple checks aren't the end of the...

    FIFM :D

    Human Paragon Class

    I believe it's 3.5. You are correct that Adaptive Skill doesn't help with maximum ranks in the skill. What it does do is allow the character to spend skill points 1 for 1 instead of purchasing half ranks as you would for a cross-class skill, such as a wizard/ rogue spending his wizard skill...

    Human Paragon Class

    Basically, you choose one of the skills you picked as a Human Paragon class skill. From that point, it's a class skill in every class you take in the future. If the example character became a Paladin or Wizard later in his career, he could continue to put ranks in Spot at the normal rate...

    Paladin's Detect Evil

    I treat it as normal, needing concentration (and obvious glowy eyes) when detecting. Paladins (and other classes that receive similar abilities) can attempt to use the ability more quickly if they want. They'll only get the first round benefit of detect evil using the "flash" version of the...

    Extra points if the players are annoying teens on an amusent park ride! :)

    Final Fantasy J

    Frida is worried, both about her friend, and also about what the manager is going to say about people carving up doors. As Mikken moves forward, she's just a step behind him. She prepares to use the magic in her staff* if it becomes necessary. Anxiously, she peers over the younger cousin's...

    Dragonlance Camp. Setting '03

    One time, at Dragonlance Camp....

    How much camp do you like in your games?

    Yep, that about sums up my position too.
