He is not going to get her raised. He is going to get the other PC raised. He just left her body there to rot. Torm would revoke his powers for his lack of Loyalty to his fellow Paladin, and his failure to uphold his Duty by burying her. He broke two of the most sacred principles of Torm...

So, since a group shows a predeliction for using adventurers to retrieve their sacred Dragon, they are somehow deserving of mercy? Cunning is a morally neutral trait. The Paladin, as far as we know, formed a momentary pact with the Kobolds as to avoid conflict at that time. Now that he has...

No. That would break the Lawful part of the Paladins alignment. Besides, Detect Evil is a guide to helping make the right decision. The question the Paladin should be asking himself is, "If I leave this tribe of Kobolds alone, to raise a White Dragon, what will the likely effects be?" The...

If they detect as evil they have done wrong, they have done harm, and thus they do deserve to be stamped out without mercy. What is the point of the Paladins ability otherwise? I have always viewed that ability as a Paladin peering into someones soul and seeing the taint that lies there. The...

A Paladin is granted divine gifts to ascertain the presence of evil, and the abilities to thusly deal with it. If the Paladin was meant as you seem to see the class, it would have vastly different abilities. Besides, did you not ever read the PHB? I quote, "Alhandra fights evil without...

Once again, the Paladin is a righteous warrior, not a social worker. What do you want the Paladin to do, adopt every force of evil he encounters and attempt to raise them in the good path, in a vague, vain hope it might do some good? That's not his calling nor his duty. The Paladin is a...

Kill them. They are an organized force of evil that will almost certainly harm the residents of Oakhurst in the future. You are a Paladin, not a social worker. You are a virtuous warrior who exists to purge evil from the land. And the divinely granted gifts from your deity have revealed...

Shouldn't hitpoints be more of a representative of your physical stamina, not your ability to take damage? I do not think you are actually severely wounded until you drop below 1 hitpoint. Hitpoints are how adept you are at avoiding fatal or maiming wounds, which is why the fighting characters...

Why have the social skills present in that case? Just because something is true does not mean it is going to convince other people of your argument. I can show you many real world historical examples if you wish. Reasoning would be Intelligence, which does not rule over social encounters. A...

On the Diplomacy rolls: Sorry, you are ignoring the rules if you play it that way. By putting roleplay above the mechanics of the game, a Dwarf with 6 Charisma can be just as convincing as the Half-Elf with an 18 Charisma. I will no more give players who are shy and have trouble with words...

1. Once Upon A Time In Mexico. 2. Matrix: Reloaded. 3. X-Men 2.

:D Fun episode. I really liked the music in the middle of the episode, too.

Best movie I have seen all year. Incredibly fun and interesting. I loved it. Plus, the song for the credits was good enough that I stayed in the theatre and listened to the entire thing.

In higher level games, acces to Flying eliminates the need for almost all of the movement skills. Unless your DM painstakingly crafts scenarios specifically to eliminate that option, said skills are worth exactly jack at higher levels. Darklone, the skills are there for a reason. You might...

Excellent. Looks good.

This forum is called D&D rules, not House Rules, for a reason. I am assuming standard magic as detailed in the DMG, not special case scenarios that vary from campaign to campaign. By the book, parties will have access to magic and items that make all of those skills redundant or useless, thus...

Congratulations.

The Fighters skills more useful than Basket Weaving, you say? How so? Climb, Jump and Swim are pointless at higher levels. They have no long term investment power. Ride suffers from the same problem. The only time you would ever bother with it is if you wanted to go into a mounted PrC, and...

[/b] A +4 weapon is, mathematically speaking, better than two +3 weapons. You will do more damage and hit more often with the +4 weapon. [/b] The Fighter is only useful in narrow combat situations. If the arena they are fighting in is at all different from a standard dungeon, they quickly...

New episode tonight. Should be good. Looks like more of a pure fun episode, which is just fine with me. :D
