Apologies for the lack of updates from me; I rather suddenly realized yesterday that I had midterms this week, which has, I hope you understand, delayed my character creation! But here is a preliminary character sheet for my character, Ying; his background should hopefully be added soon...

Then she wasn't really skilled; the Smash Bros. series has never been friendly to button mashers. Its learning curve is less steep than most fighting games, but a truly skilled player will never be beaten by a newbie, unless the match heavily utilizes the game's various items or takes place on a...

Oh, I wish I had noticed this earlier this morning... though I am the seventh to submit a character idea, I hope I might still be taken under consideration. The World of Conclave sounds like a wonderful setting, and I'd love to join the game. I was considering a human bard, skilled with both...

This sounds like it could be a very interesting and very fun game. I'd like to join in, although I'm not sure just what kind of character I'd like to play yet. And a question: is the game human-only? You said nothing restricting people from picking other races, but I got the vibe that the...

4th Edition: Introducing the Yellow Slaad!

This episode wasn't awful, but compared to last week's -- which was one of the best episodes in the entire series -- it was just terribly uninteresting. Oh Juliet, how I wish you were less boring! That said, the Ben and Locke portions of the episode were much more interesting, and Ben had some...

Going to have to agree with this one. It's been my experience that women who play the game enjoy it just as much as, if not more than, the men who play. And as a side note, the "kill everything and take its stuff" mentality seems to be largely absent from my male players, and the most vicious...

Since they revealed the Eladrin, I've been thinking pretty much the same thing as Falling Icicle. WotC made a perfectly good niche for the gnome, but then gave it to an elf clone, announced they couldn't find a place for the gnome in the PHB, and kicked him into the Monster Manual. Ah, well--at...

Rogues get 5d4x10, or 125 gp. (Despite not being selected, I still intend to follow the game. Glad to see you guys are starting soon!)

Dragons? Blech. As with 3e, I'd much prefer a book devoted to the fey--though, considering the new cosmology, it seems likely I'll actually manage to get what I want this time around. I'm not so sure you've got that term right--isn't Chromammary Man the name they gave to that fossil of early...

Well, I vastly prefer Orcus, Graz'zt, Malcanthet, and their ilk to Asmodeus and his cronies, but when it comes to the more rank-and-file devils and demons, the devils win it for me--I find myself particularly fond of the kytons, gelugons, and osyluths. But, overall... I'd have to say yugoloths...

U of I at Urbana-Champaign, not Chicago. The weather's a bit nicer down here; this winter we've gotten barely any snow compared to the northern bits of Illinois, for instance. While I doubt Champaign-Urbana's gaming scene will be anywhere near as large as Houston's or Seattle's, there is, I...

As with all of Paizo's adventure paths, Rise of the Runelords is written with the idea that the game will be played by a group that includes a Fighter, Rogue, Cleric, and Wizard. Although a DM can of course alter adventures to better suit his or her players' characters, with the adventures as...

Alas, Lady Luck does not smile upon me as it smiles upon EvolutionKB. But I wish him and the rest of ye best of luck with the AP!

Nearly Friday already? Ah, how time flies! Good luck to all who entered, and to those who might still--I believe there is still time before recruitment is closed.

Ah, excellent. I have been waiting to pounce on this. :) The character I will be submitting is a human (Varisian) rogue by the name of Vihar. The fluffier bits of information follow. Vihar was born into poverty and illness in his youth, and orphaned at a young age, his mother dying of a fever...

Ugh, hate the new logo. Way too much anime influence! They might as well just give all 4e halflings spiky blue hair on their feet and create a minimum length of three meters for all sword blades.

If they actually turned this into a full-length movie, it would be the only one. :)

Sure, why not? Makes me feel like I'm being helpful, even if nothing I post winds up being useful to anyone. :) First off, Mike McArtor provided a very in-depth look at Shelyn, though he warns some of it might not wind up being entirely canon, since it has yet to see print. The same goes for...

Well, Lamashtu did just get a Desna-level writeup of her own in Pathfinder #5, though as she is a CE deity it is unlikely any PCs will be selecting her as a patron. :p Perhaps of more interest is that several of the other deities (I can think of Iomedae, Calistria, and especially Shelyn...
