Yeah, I'd go with a fighter/bard... could even take ranks in ride and talk to your horse. (If you took the spell speak with animals, you could even not be faking it, and if the DM was nice you could have a smart horse who was in on it with you.) (If you had an incredibly nice DM, the horse could...

I'm incredibly baffled as to how I missed that class, I remember reading that book more closely than that... Thanks a ton for that, I'll have to check it out. And yes, it might not be a perfect fit, but I'm certainly interested.

Ask the other players what they think about it. I figure it fits the tone of your game, you didn't bring up that it didn't -- a frenzied berserker is not a good class for, say, an urban environment, or anything that suggests a bar room brawl... chuckle... But yeah. The main problem appears to...

Hmm, cool, I'll check some of these out, I have some of these sources but haven't fully read some of the classes. I'll check some reviews of heroes of high favor, sounds promising. I'd just like some options for some "weird" multiclasses as my players and myself tend to enjoy quirky concepts...

Your first said you thought he had some very annoying habits... I'd be prone to say no just based on that. However, those habits might bother you less as time goes on. Who knows? But yeah... I've DM'd for my younger cousins.. they're very enthusiastic, it's quite fun.

I used them in a campaign. It was a ranger, it hid in the trees and talked to the party's ranger, and then went about its business once it found the party wasn't a threat. They never saw the thing. The first time I saw the things I started laughing. Then I read about them, and I laughed more. I...

MerricB started a good thread about this topic, but this is an offshoot. I dislike the core classes such as Hexblade and Swashbuckler -- I like Eldritch Knights and Fighter/Rogues better, but, I'm wondering which niches haven't been filled with relatively fluffless classes? I'm considering this...

Depends on the players -- players who like unique and weird system concepts tend to multiclass or take PrCs, players who don't need weird numbers to have a unique character tend to less. As for myself, I've only played a sorceror, a druid, and a diviner/fighter/eldritch knight. Nearly all my...

The 5' step is for flavor, mainly, I think. Hmm, maybe if it only allowed a 5' (you normally get a move w/ total defense, don't you? unsure.) or if it changed to "each additional 5 ranks in tumble grants you an additional +2 bonus on total defense." Otherwise it seems really good -- I know you...

Myrime pulled herself out of trance slowly, feeling the presence of her family in her room. The room felt warm as she lazily opened her eyes, expecting her father, and she startled at the sight of her mother. Lossefalme, her mother, leaned in the entrance to Myrime's lean-to naked and...

I think I speak for everyone when I say that if D&D can't support undead pirates, it's a much worse game for it. :) Interesting topic.

Again, please note: the poll is not designed to state whether or not magic item shops (or shoppes, chuckle) SHOULD exist, it's whether or not they DO exist in people's games. The general consensus is that in one way or another, they do. Some people simply set a cutoff of where an item starts...

I made this thread because people talk a lot about magic item shops, and how they're silly and how they're not. Obviously, this is a large issue. Heh. Regardless -- take a step back from your vantage point for a second, and simply look at the results. I know that five of you or so said that it...

I have a bunch of books but I don't use many of them. Current campaign is core + a few UA mods only, and a house rule or two -- mainly roleplaying house rules for sorcery contacting the dark one, etc, no hard rules for it. Last campaign was core + UA + XPH. Before that, it was.. core + FRCS +...

Also, I should mention this: My last campaign was crafted magical items only, and it was a hit. My current campaign is still in preliminary stages, and the outside world hasn't been accessed yet, and I'm not sure how prevalent magic will be. Also, the idea of "magic shops" is ranted against...

hah, yeah -- subtracting gold and saying "I bought the item at a magic shop!" is completely inappropriate unless your DM gives you the get-go. I've never played a game like that, although I've run one once or twice -- it's whimsical, and it's certainly FAST. As compared to other games I've...

Note: As well, this is to DM's, about their current campaigns. (Pick your favorite campaign if you're running multiple campaigns.) If you're a player, pick your favorite campaign. I would also like to mention that I have played with all of these options, and enjoyed each of them very much --...

Does your campaign allow magic item shops? If so, to what extent? I'm trying to phrase the poll as neutrally as possible. Feel free to chime in with your comments.

Woah, that's an excellent idea, and if it fits into a campaign... dang. Good thinkin. Also adds a bit more to heroism, in a way. "I killed a bearded devil and I took his stuff" is a bit less romantic than "I killed a bearded devil and took his beard, and it now hangs on MY wall of slain beasts...

Point buy 25, if I write your character in full. Point buy 28 if you write your backstory, and your personality. Point buy 30 if you write your backstory, your personality, and provide me with adequate plot hooks to advance the story under your effort instead of mine as the DM. Never had...
