    Yay for Locke

    Point. Thanks, will do. Same way I check on my own threads. ('course that is easier, being an 'A' ;) )

    Yay for Locke

    That's right, Lost has only been showing over here a couple of weeks now and they just showed the (first?) episode with Locke's past in it. First time in quite a while that a story has gotten a positive emotional respose from me. So, yay for Locke, I guess. I wonder if it would be possible to...

    D&D 4E Imaginary 4E ideas - what would you like to see ?

    4E Threads always remind me of those times in astrobiology classes and texts where speculation goes on about what qualities alien (or intelligent) life might/should have. People tend to have wildly varying ideas about what is required or desirable. There may never be any conclusive result of...

    Mind Blank and Telepathic Bond = The Uninformed Barbarian?

    In the first sentence of the spell description. The one that tells people what they can expect from the spell, before said description goes into the specifics. People like the designers, you mean? In fact, if you carefully read my post, you will see that I note scrying as being mentioned...

    Mind Blank and Telepathic Bond = The Uninformed Barbarian?

    Doesn't. Some of them do not read or detect thoughts or emotions either, and those work fine. May not be called Thought Blank, but it is called Mind Blank. Primary purpose is to protect mental integrity and privacy. Thus, spells which would control, compel or otherwise affect mental state are...

    Extoll your hate of Valentine's Day (was: Extoll the virtues of your love!!)

    An opportunity for concerted action in a perceived positive direction? But how would one go about 'fixing' these holidays?

    Compound Penalties

    But if he is being restored to his previous state, should not the new points go first into remembering the knowledge he lost? If he really needs to rearrange skill points he would be better off finding a psion.

    Cleric & Wizard collaborating on a scroll

    No. But it should. And so should divine cure spells. As far as Bards having healing spells at all I have no opinion.

    [Feb05] What are you reading?

    All non-fiction for now, just went down to the local library, started at the beginning of the dewey-decimal system and pulled everything that caught my interest until I hit my limit: Great Heroes of Mythology by 'Petra Press' Nice illustrations but very light. Nothing new in the ones I'd read...

    I just watched "Berserk" season 1 anime

    That would be. . . nifty. I have one player who would do his best to track down a behelit, and another who would kill him if he so much as touched one. :cool: *judges from the favourable opinions of others that Guardians of Order can be trusted to do it right*

    Is there a half-fey template?

    a) What's wrong with butterfly wings? b) Wouldn't that be part of the infinitely more mutable flavour text rather than the rules themselves? c) Name of book noted for future reference.:)

    I just watched "Berserk" season 1 anime

    That is not entirely surprising, considering that its main function seems to be generating threads like this one. ;)

    My @!@#! Player abusing Feather Fall

    That would be foolish. If the wizard must not be allowed to get off any spells, though, it would be less foolish for two to ready for one spell and one to ready the other. Still would not stop you stabbing them to death. Will I regret posting to this thread? *shrug*

    Rules question

    Ah, thanks. Glad to hear that.

    Rules question

    I am having a little trouble having understanding how autofire works. In particular I am not sure if it is meant to be used as a standard (attack) action or if it can be used in part of the full attack action when the character possesses iterative attacks.

    A Feast for Crows Update.

    Not quite fake. The titles were printed in the first Legends anthology and Martin has commented on them himself, I believe in the So Spake Martin archives at westeros.org (that's fan correspondence for those not familiar). He is/was not happy with 'A Time for Wolves', apparently that has been...

    I just watched "Berserk" season 1 anime

    You are forgiven that remark because you have already admitted to being only halfway through (and only halfway through the anime at that, judging by what you call the 'halfway mark' - the eclipse is closer to the middle of the story thus far than the text of your spoiler). [Edit - On review...

    Under Siege Update- How much does a commoner eat per day?

    Auraseer, you are quite right to point that out. :D Nevertheless, I will continue to feel an unjustified sense of pride at my first pointing out of an abusable rules-thingy. But to try and actually help Xath, what do you mean by 'city of mages'? How many and how powerful? What kind of...

    Under Siege Update- How much does a commoner eat per day?

    You might be surprised how many people can travel through a gate or other limited-duration portal. Since everyone involved is not an 'enemy', they can move freely through each other's space (and people can be packed more tightly when not in combat). The only real limiting factor is how many...

    What's a "unique being" for purposes of Gate?

    Whereas I would probably allow it, because allowing would (IMO) have more potential for both fun and story. If it is really, really important that the party not get the answers they are after, Sharzzakhar prevaricates until rescued. Dragons (well, maybe not the blue ones) are known for being...
