Except for when it's attacking. If it's attacking, it no longer has total cover, as some part of it has to come up through the floor to inflict the attack - be it fingers, an arm or whatever. Thus meaning a readied action can nail it, though it may require a spot check to see it in time. But...

Unless the creature can see through that floor, readied actions will still apply, as the undead won't have the unerring ability to slide an incorporeal hand up through an all too corporeal foot - meaning either at least parts of a limb become visible while seeking out a foot, or a face will...

My prediction was Batman from the beginning of this whole thing. I wasn't entirely off, at least. Of course, it also helps that Batman was my #1 out of the entire list. I have a soft spot for the "normal" mortal standing as a peer to the likes of Superman and Wonder Woman. In a genre where the...

Batman.

1) Indiana Jones 2) Batman

Eh. I don't necessarily think all the alignments are "equal" when it comes to acting a certain way. Generally speaking, I find any alignment with one aspect of neutrality to be the best representative of that alignment; that is, a neutral good individual is more good than lawful good, lawful...

He's freaking Odysseus, that's how. I'd certainly place him above Gollum, at least. Same with Malcolm Reynolds. Anyway. 1. Captain Jack Sparrow vs. Conan 2. Batman vs. Gandalf 3. Odysseus vs. Captain Malcolm "Mal" Reynolds 4. Han Solo vs. Indiana Jones

They do think of the TV show, though. However, every episode I've tried sitting through just...wears. Meanwhile, I can enjoy the movie a bit. If not anywhere near as much as Big Trouble in Little China. And I'd pick Mal over the likes of Buffy, Kong, Samwise...and so on, any day of the week...

Except when he doesn't. See: Sacrifice storyline. (of course, I did vote for Batman, and do like the idea that a mortal man can take on and win against the likes of Supes, but I have a lot of love for the Big Blue Boy Scout, too)

1. Gollum vs. Odysseus 2. Buffy Summers vs. Captain Malcolm “Mal” Reynolds 3. Gandalf vs. Robin Hood 4. Conan vs. Sherlock Holmes 5. Han Solo vs. Tarzan 6. Indiana Jones vs. Yoda 7. Batman vs. Superman 8. Captain Jack Sparrow vs. Obi-Wan Kenobi

Repeated for truth. However, I still voted for the high stat side of things. That comes with the caveat, though, that I like some sort of weakness to exist; high stats are made better, as I see it, by having one low stat to counter them out. I had a bardic fighter with base 16 Strength and...

I don't care about the system. I care about the presentation. If it were presented as "magic of the mind" or something like that, I might go for it. All too often, however, it has currents of evolution and super-powerful brains (as opposed to being a learned discipline) to it. Crystals...

1. Gollum vs. Dream (The Sandman) 2. Buffy Summers vs. Samwise Gamgee. Huh. May slow things down, but if it I don't really have an opinion...I don't really have one. Abstain. 3. Jean Luc-Picard vs. BA Baracus (A-Team) 4. Horatio Hornblower vs. Batman 5. Conan vs. Cthulhu 6. Raistlin Majere vs...

1. Angus MacGyver vs.Batman 2. Cthulhu vs. Doomsday (Superman Villain) 3. The Cheshire Cat vs. Jonah Hex 4. Edmund Blackadder vs. The Doctor 5. Wonder Woman vs. Jack Bauer 6. Jack Burton vs. Master Chief 7. Sherlock Holmes vs. Maxwell Smart 8. Robin Hood vs. Keyser Soze (The Usual Suspects) 9...

Booster Gold Many super-heroes do what they do because of some great tragedy in their past they hope to never let pass again, or because it's the right thing to do, or patriotic spirit, or any other number of selfless reasons. Not so Booster Gold, a former football player from the 25th...

Eddard Stark of A Game of Thrones Patriarch of House Stark, Ned is the Warden of the North and Lord of Winterfell. Ned's a man of great virtue, renowned throughout the Seven Kingdoms for his high standards of honor, a man greatly concerned about integrity. If he has any virtue that trumps...

Is the person a paladin or some other individual that absolutely, never can do an evil act? Then any alignment could, conceivably, do it. Or, more appropriately, it's in character for any other alignment to potentially do it. The further one gets from evil, the more likely the individual's...

Note: The only time a god and titan fought one on one, the god won, not the titan. See: Corean vs. Golthagga. Further note: The Scarred Lands, at least initially, and at its best, had a strong feel of Greek mythology. Gods overcoming the titans and what not. God trumps titan. Their phenomal...

I really liked the way Klaus termed it: a campaign setting should remain a snapshot. As such, I voted no on the metaplot. So long as there are new places to detail, people to describe and organizations to flesh out, metaplot is a bad thing. I want a campaign setting to give me story seeds and...
