    The Treasure of the Tierra Padre... [Knight Otu Judging]

    -- OoC -- Yah.. I'll be back January 5th most likely. If you start earlier and desperatly need a rogue, feel free to pilot Razir a bit. In any case.. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year and all ;)

    Races of Destiny: First Look

    What old posts from the source? Could you link them possibly? Silver Marches definitly holds a special place of honor in my collection while Magic of Faerun certainly does not (though I owe both)

    Races of Destiny: First Look

    Eh.. my point exactly. Just that I don't need anyone to tell me some cool glowing sigils, tattoos, whatever might expand class abilities. I can come up with that myself. I'd need a very inspiring and compelling story to introduce them into my campaign to make the book worth buying. The one...

    Races of Destiny: First Look

    I agree that its alot easier and seemingly a working concept. Can't change that. I think the major problem with WoTC Fluff is that its so unspecific as to not safe you any time at all since you must adapt it anyways. The crunch example: Feat X says you get a Bonus of +2 to your damage under Y...

    Races of Destiny: First Look

    Well, for myself, I'd like to question the notion that Races of Destiny is a particularly fluffy book. I think the major appeal of RoD is the crunchy parts. The whole Illuman Sigils and the Chameleon PrC, etc.. really tickly the stat-tinkerer in me. Sadly though.. crunch is not enough to sell...

    Races of Destiny: First Look

    I think your both overreacting a bit just to voice your own distaste of fluffy books. People have argued about the quality and value (i.e. is it good or bad?) of crunchy bits of certain books enough to fill whole libraries and have also come to the overall consensus that some crunch is just...

    Cannibalism and Human Sacrifice

    Well, since there have been cultures on earth in history that did practice cannibalism, there have certainly been sets of values that didn't considered the practice evil, likely even sacred and special. As far as I know, no civilization as a whole so far ran around with diabolic giggles...

    What is the most despised race?

    I think you miss the fact that popularity always comes with a certain amount of polarisation. As I already mentioned above somewhere.. if you'd run the poll with the inverse question (whats your favorite race?), I am sure that elves, drow and gnomes would likewise recieve a lot of votes, while...

    What's the point of the Eldritch Knight PrC?

    Actually any Wizard should get a few levels of Runesmith! A little 5-level dip with full caster progression, d6 hit dice and two good saves is too good to pass up, even without the added bonus of being able to cast Spells in full plate at no obvious drawback (unlike other classes, you can move...

    Knightmares Of Khorvaire OOC

    You wanna just dice the interrogation Defcon? or play it out word by word? Your last post seems to suggest the former since I already asked the major questions I believe. If so, I'm not quite sure which skill would apply...

    Knightmares of Khorvaire

    'I.. how would I know? .. How.. I mean I did that?, didn't I?' the Shifter growls, his clawlike fingers grating deep marks into the fine tablewood as finds himself in a sort of cross examination between Zook and the Templar of the Silver Flame. Digging once more into his crowded bags with a...

    Swords and Socialites Part 1: The Forgotten Forge

    -- OoC -- Well, the meeting at the Broken Anvil was scheduled at midnight, though we've been a bit early. Assuming we've spend a bit of time negotiating and drinking it would now be an hour or two into the next day.... ..which kinda brings up the question if there's some way to measure time in...

    The Faerie Woods [Knight Otu Judging]

    'None other than yourself Sir Gontor Torbith!' Moruals acknowledges with a formal little bow, quite unconcerned in holding up the dwarfs strange demand. 'A fancy name is not a game I hunt.' The slender elf reinsures as he turns on his heel with as flamboyant a whirl of his cloak as the small...

    The Faerie Woods [Knight Otu Judging]

    Still convinced, that the necklace and its origin must hold some special importance, Morulas tries to weight the options 'That does indeed sound like a good start, even if the connection to the bloody murders of the last days is just a hunch really. Also, if noone here is schooled in heraldry...

    Swords and Socialites Part 1: The Forgotten Forge

    His golden eyes gleaming with anticipation of the adventure, Haramir slams his empty mug onto the table, taking a measuring look at the motley gathering 'Well Ladys and Gentlemen. It certainly seems we've got a good idea of what to do when we get down there as well as a map to show us the way.'...

    The Faerie Woods [Knight Otu Judging]

    Morulas, so intend on the fine cut in the wall winces as Gontor reminds him of his slip of etiquette. 'I .. oh.. I am sorry.' the elf announces with a slight bow'please call me Morulas' Thinking the Jewelers offer over for a moment before he responds, Morulas quickly admits to himself the...

    What is the most despised race?

    Well, I'm sure if you'd post the poll with the inverse question (whats the best race?) you'd get alot of the same results. Some races (particularly elves I suppose) tend to split people's opinions into one extreme or the other, while others (uh Half-Orcs for example) tend to fall through one...

    What is the most despised race?

    'shrug' I do have a sort of Drizzt wannabe in my group and got no problem with that either. It's still alot fresher than yet another Conan wannabe, Legolas wannabe, Gimli wannabe, Merlin wannabe, King Arthur wannabe, Frodo wannabe, what-you-ve-got? (though I got no problems with those...

    What is the most despised race?

    Well, judging from the poll above, I think my next character (me=male) must be a female Half-Drow/Half-Gnome with a yet undecided Template ... cheers!

    The Treasure of the Tierra Padre... [Knight Otu Judging]

    I don't mind taking a break at all.. but it would be nice if we could sort of round up that scene with a DM Post of 'you pack up the croc, saddle up the horses and head south, etc..' and start it up anew with a new scene being introduced by you with 'you set up your camp for the night.. ' or a...
