    OA Setting Question

    There's also Cathay for Swashbuckling Adventures (7th Sea). It's dual statted tho it seems mostly Chinese culture after a quick skim. There's also magic n other mumbo jumbo involving the 8 Trigrams. There's a Japanese setting book for Fuzion (the name escapes me at the moment) that could...

    Eastern magic

    It might not give you exactly what you're looking for but look for the Sammo Hung movie "Spooky Encounters". Sammo plays a character who's the target of one wizard's spells (a hopping vampire too!) but is helped out by another wizard (the brother of the first). I haven't finished the movie but...

    D20 Apocalypse: Other Ways to End the World?

    There's also the Invasion of the Mole Men / Morlocks / <favorite underground race> wiping out the surface or a different sort of alien invasion involving Nazis and their experiments with the occult / aliens who've recently come out of hibernation. Up from the depths, 30 stories high...

    Getting out of "swallow whole"

    Well if monsters would listen to their mothers, it wouldn't happen. Don't you remember mom saying: "Chew your food before swallowing or you'll get indigestion." ?

    Too many ingredients make the soup flavorless?

    Then we crank it up a notch? How about a spinoff for the Iron DM? Instead of adventures, campaign seeds are mixed. The bad thing about the idea is the campaigns might just be one-shots.

    Why adhere to the "core" classes? Why not deconstruct for flexibility?

    Um, he's sick. My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw Ferris pass out at 31 Flavors last night. I guess it's pretty serious. Er... I'd prefer the classes to be a bit 'looser' like in UA so long as the...

    Attacking Squirrels in DnD

    Well if a rabbit can tear through a dozen or so knights in a matter of seconds, then a squirrel should be proportionately nasty. Even before using a Holy Hand Grenade. What about the carnivorous squirrels from 1st Edition (MMII)? Has anyone updated them to 3.x yet or maybe d20 Modern? :]...

    Which PrCl would you never want in your game? (part 1 - DMG)

    "Assassination is the highest form of public service." -- Chiun I actually voted all of 'em, except for the Arcane Trickster. Arcane Archer, Dwarven Defender - Why always with the frellin' elves n dwarves? Show the other races some love! Assassin - good idea but why evil? Remo and Chiun sold...

    [June] What are you playing?

    Jade Empire. There's just something about going into the martial arts equivalent of bullet time.

    Giving the monk more choices: the Mystic, version 1.6 -- post #41

    Doh. Posted this on another thread (the waterwalking one) so here it is again. What about combining the Slow Fall with the Water Walking? Ever watch Remo Williams: the Adventure Begins? As he progresses in the Art of Sinanju, he runs across sand without leaving tracks, over wet cement without...

    How do I run on water?

    What about combining the Slow Fall with the Water Walking? Ever watch Remo Williams: the Adventure Begins? As he progresses in the Art of Sinanju, he runs across sand without leaving tracks, over wet cement without sinking and his master Chiun is able to run across water while the tv pilot had...

    Need some new Anime to watch!

    Record of Lodoss War. What's another take on a Basic D&D party in an epic adventure? Ushio and Tora. I prefer the original voice actors to the dubbed versions. Read or Die. Haven't seen the tv series but the OAV was pretty awesome (been on Adult Swim at least twice). Castle of Cagliostro...

    Farscape (No Spoilers)

    The pop culture references are fun since those around him have no idea what the heck he's talking about like his mention of Yoda in the second episode (I, E.T.). The unusual episodes are also spiffy like the Chuck Jones-ish episode (Revenging Angel) or stream of consciousness episode (Scratch n...

    Final Figures for the 04-05 TV season

    Maybe UPN is just following Fox's lead - trying to be one of the "Big Boys" (originally ABC, CBS and NBC) by axing series with fan followings like Brisco County (Fox spent how much pimping the series?) or more recently the Tick ("Armless bandit, give up that bitter black urine men call coffee...

    A Sore Thumb: Ways for a Chinese girl to stand out?

    Instead of the giant Yao Ming type, why not go the opposite route? She's quite petite, even for Chinese. However she's got a bottomless pit for a stomach and can easily win any eating contest and maybe even any drinking contest. Another possibility with the petiteness is she KO'd a giant of a...

    Yoda trains obi wan to what??(Spoilers)

    REALLY? Another movie? When's it coming out or is Lucas keeping that one hush hush too? I do kind of wonder if Star Wars will be something that'll become Hollywood remakes in a decade or so.
