Logos! Good CHOICE .... -Samir

Thay, Über Alles! I identify with the Master Race ... a.k.a. Mulan Humans (Races of Faerûn, pp. 95-98). -Samir Asad

RE: Corporate Storytelling Sounds mercenary to me, BD. -Samir

Old-School! (FRCS) Bhaal

The Goddess of Larcenous "Pecks" Naw. Yondalla, because halflings swallow. -Samir P.S. Kobolds rule! ;) -S.A.

Logos! Also, for those of you throwing around playstyle labels ... feel free to check out the Threefold Model. Technically, you can run an RBDM scenario under any of its approaches (e.g., dramatist, gamist, and/or simulationist). -Samir Asad (CE Simulationist)

Throat Slitting Mania You got robbed. -Samir

Recommendation Agreed. If you posted a synopsis of your PC, we would be able to offer you more precise advice. -Samir

Who's the Master? "Overestimated mental puissance?"

The Law of Forbidden Knowledge (Religion) At least not until you work out an elaborate sacrifice ritual (see the BoVD, pp. 26-28). -Samir

Flesh to Sludge (x2) Short of a limited wish, you can't really transform the sand grains back into a complete statue. Yeah, he's a lump of featureless stone that can never be restored to life. This seems a little too literal ... props to you, if your DM allows it though. I just have issues with...

Flesh to Sludge What? A flesh to stone / transmute rock to mud combination definitely kills most targets. -Samir

RBDM Mayhem: Scarred Lands Style! I wholeheartedly agree with you Nightfal, but I'd spice it up a bit. Here's what I suggest: Arrange for an overnight stay in another inn, send in another 4th level rogue NPC (a disciple of Belsameth should do nicely) ... and see if the players have actually...

The Thayan Sarcophagus Use hold person (or hold monster) and then entomb your paralyzed victim in solid rock with stone shape. It's quicker than downing someone and initiating a coup de grâce ... plus, it has style. -Samir

A Humble Request Come to think of it, could you post your character info? -Samir

Self Defense & Rogue Buffs Mage armor and shield are a cost-effective "classic" defense ... but they work better when combined with mirror image, displacement, and/or stoneskin. Haste and improved invisibility will turn your party rogue into a veritable killing machine ... assuming, of course...

A Scrying Glass Darkly Agreed ... my "no" vote is definitely influenced by the long chain of antiheroic PCs (and inept DMs) that I have seen in action. -Samir

Logos! These stories are heroic because they happen within a well-developed cosmology and possess memorable characters. If they were reduced to episodic pulp fiction (like most D&D adventures), they would have less of a literary impact. Still, you do have an excellent point ... and, yes, I do...

RBDM Core! HERE is a new candidate for extreme PC stupidty ... feel free to read the whole thread. -Samir is the TPKillah

Provisionally Yours .... Yes, but it will take much more than the world's greatest RPG forum to redeem my depraved soul. :D -Samir is the TPKillah
