Ha! gave me a good laugh.

If you have read the Dragonlance novels, Sturm Brightblade is probably a what a stereotypical knight would look like.

Agreed. If the producers of Pirates of the Caribean had decided that Jack Sparrow was not going to be the protagonist of the story, if Ayn Rand in her book Atlas Shrugged (I recommend her books by the way, both fiction and non-fiction.) had decided not to make John Galt the hero of the story...

Since I am taking an economy class this semester my answer would be supply and demand: You can make anything you want and try to sell it but this doesn't mean that demand for the good exists. Consumers may not be willing and able to purchase a certain thing at a certain price. This seems to...

I agree that it should be KISSed. What do I do? Since I play in Eberron, I generally have low level magic items available for sale and the players can get their hands on such items easily. As far as higher level items, they are more rare and generally crafting such items is the way to go. It...

A little OT but just a philosophical critique of your sig: If nothing is true then this statement also cannot be true making such a statement absurd. The statement everything is permitted is immoral, that means that to violate another person's individual rights is permitted. The statement...

Yea, that's what I was thinking of doing.

I want the power level of the setting to be one of level 1-20 and not more so the maximum CR would be CR 23.

I was thinking of running a game which goes from 1 to 20 and I was thinking of removing most epic elements from the game and since many dragons reach CR 27 as they get older I was thinking of removing dragons with CR 24 and above and keeping only CR 23 dragons and under. What do you all think?

Not sure if you knew this but the +15 to UMD is from an artificer infusion which is then cast in the ring and not from the ring itself.

I've heard that the CR of dragons does not equate with their actual power. Can someone elaborate on whether this is so and if so why?

Since it came up, why may I ask do you have a distate for the book?

Feral is found in Savage Species.

I don't actually have any rules as yet for diplomacy. I was being pragmatic and trying to do what I can within the existing rules and my players have tried not to abuse the rules. I have decided to implement the diplomacy rules on Giant in the Playground.

My suggestion would the Stronghold Builder's guide.

Also Perhaps the first meeting was sham to see if they could trust the PCs, while the real meeting is in the future although you might want to be careful because if the PCs decide to agree to betray their escortee that might be the end of the adventure unless you have prepared for what would...

Awesome!

If someone doesn't like how I DM or the houserules I have he is perfectly free to not play in such a game, start his own game and make his own rules. There are many DMs whose rules I don't like and I don't play with them.

They could be hired as bodyguards to escort someone to Xendrik, in exchange their tickets to Xendrik and back will be paid for, they will receive room and board and have opportunity for freelance work. While in Xendrik, they escort the NPC (give him either expert or aristocrat levels so that...

I agree, I am arguing RAI. If the rules are taken to mean such a thing then it would be bad but I consider diplomacy as an I win buttion to be abuse. I think that being realistic does not allow such abuse since real life does not allow diplomacy as an I win button. I think that the rules as...
