It's a bit of both, really. In regional and metaregional adventures, I really do get the sense that I'm doing something meaningful in terms of the long-term plot, because I've been around long enough to see the campaign consequences for several modules actually bear fruit and had the plot take...

I dropped them into my present campaign, though the PCs are 3rd-level and none of them have a higher faction score than 3, so the faction benefits have yet to come into play. The insanity rules for the Bleakers are pretty rough, but they do fit the faction. If anyone in my game had any...

Intriguing. The FR adventure is on my must-buy list. For Magic Item Compendium I sadly probably already have all the books and magazines it's using as sources. For the SW book... I shall wait and see. If I can get it for an affordable price, I might get it, even if I'll probably never, ever get...

Comes in both Large and Medium sizes. Both have CR 3. Costs 1,150 gp and 80 xp to make. No "In Eberron" writeup. Or "In Faerûn" for that matter. Justice archons in Faerûn, predictably, are native to the House of the Triad.

There are so many... I got Grim Tales and Tome of Horrors after winning them in trivia contests on #dnd3e. (We don't have those anymore, sadly, but feel free to come and chat.) I got Magic of Incarnum because of MerricB's recommendations. It came very close to being the first WotC book I was...

Intriguing. There's at least one PC who would live if it weren't for a contrary rules interpretation.

Seconded. Also, the full plate assistants thing. And the fact you must already be in melee to be able to fight defensively or take a full defence action.

I've played the binder thus far in one session of a friend's homebrew campaign. The rest of the party believes he's a holy man of some description since he's disguised as a priest to avoid persecution. It went really well, and I'm enjoying the character immensely. Among other things, I could...

I like fiction in Dragon. D&D -based or not, I may actually get the most mileage out of a short story than any of the articles. I always read the fiction, but it's a rarer event that stuff from the game finds its way into my game, because that requires me to keep the magazine with me at the...

Looks pretty solid after a cursory readthrough. Thanks, man. You saved me a lot of work.

Yeah, I use warrior and expert a lot for low-level mooks and villanous noncombatant types. Instead of aristocrat, though, I prefer to use Dragonlance Campaign Setting's noble, and instead of adepts I have shamans, spirit shamans, dragon shamans, totemists, favoured souls and sorcerers...

Got the book a couple of days ago. Great, excellent, beautiful stuff. My sole complaint is that it's several hundred pages too short, but that one goes for most WotC books nowadays. Just one question, though... What's the story behind That Hellhole?

Yah, I'm INTJ as well. Seems to be a repeating theme in the IRC channels I frequent. As I recall, we had a poll on this some time ago, and there were a couple of types that were overwhelmingly more common. I think INTJ and INTP, but if someone could dig it up, we could verify.

It's a very good book, and it has a lot of stuff about the history of giants, but it's focused more in the far north and ancient history kind of stuff. It goes into reasonable detail about events in the Hartsvale region and the ancient Ostoria, and has a lot of stuff about giant culture and...

A couple of 'em can still fit in an expansion. Vhailor, for example, would be a pretty good one, as would Ignus, Annah or Dak'kon. And we know the next expansion after War of the Dragon Queen will be called Blood War...

Pretty much. Geeks, too. Only thing he needs is the Caffeine domain, now...

The Realmsian deity Deneir, a neutral good deity of books, scribes and writing. Fits me very well.

Yeah, occasionally, though not for full price. Actually, something like a third of my gaming collection is stuff I bought because it looked interesting, not because I had a particular desire to play it. Also, a lot of it was bought at a 90% discount. This includes things like Nobilis, Orkworld...

Hmm... I got "ziggurat" from Warhammer (specifically, chaos dwarves) before I ever got into D&D and "gazebo" I learned from Heroes of Might & Magic II. "Milieu" I always knew because it shares the root word (or is the root word, I'm not sure) for the Finnish word "miljöö". Now...

Not all of Planescape could fit into a 320-page book, you are right. However, you could fit Sigil, the factions, and the gate towns, and short descriptions of the planes. I think that between Manual of the Planes and Planar Handbook, they're covered pretty well already. Add to that the usual...
