I found this claim curious. The stories are about Drizzt. Personally I would expect for Drizzt to be confronting the problems presented in stories that are about him. I could write several paragraphs disputing this, but it seems more prudent to point you towards the new Readers Guide to the...

So you admit that they DO read like a movie! ;)

Drizzt rocks. I can understand people getting annoyed by fanboys drooling all over him, but that doesn't change how cool the character and his story are.

They should so do Mr. Freeze. Base it off "Cold Heart, Cold Mind" from Batman: The Animated Series and have Patrick Stewart as Mr. Freeze.

IN an interview I saw months ago for the TV series, it said that both the show and the movie are disregarding the third movie as if it was an alternate timeline. The indication seemed to be that this latest movie wouldn't match up with the TV show. I hope that isn't the case. I like the show...

I was disappointed. The creatures were amazing and there were some really cool visuals, but pretty much every element of the script was horribly contrived. When the movie finished I am usually excited about a good movie and want to talk about it. After this I was kinda... meh... Hands down the...

But "rest" includes a short rest... as in the same kind of rest your players need to get back their encounter powers for the next fight. So basically, if you don't get your powers reset by the next fight, you don't get your death count reset either. It makes a series of running battles much...

Doh! Sorry, for some reason I thought it said 1/2 your hit points. My bad. That actually looks like a very balanced power as you have it. Good job.

Great Stuff! I would recommend having Goodberry work more like healing potions in the PHB. Currently it is even better than using a healing surge granted by a cleric/warlord, and the players could pop one of those berries whenever they wanted if the druid gives them one. I have a hard time...

Minions never take damage on a miss.

Hmm... I went back into my notes and I have +4 written down. Not sure where I got +5 from. Most likely I flubbed the number when I typed it up, but I'm double checking everything to make sure.

Clearly the blade has frost related powers (hence the frost crit on demons and the fire resist I added), but the blade also clearly is meant to be used on extra-planar creatures. In "The Halfling's Gem" the blade was hungering to kill the creatures from Tarterus (sp?) that he was fighting. They...

Also notice that it does frost damage on crits vs demons, so some of that "frost" property is there. In the novels, that's the only time it's had ice powers.

The game stats made it a frost weapon, but it's only ever displayed ice properties of any kind when Drizzt was fighting demons. Against anything else it is just a diamond edged blade. Basically I stated Drizzt and his gear according to the stories instead of trying to follow previously released...

I decided to take a stab at stating up Drizzt for 4E. Surprisingly, even a lvl 1 ranger can represent Drizzt's cababilities very well. He was built using point-buy for the ability scores, and he is shown at lvls 1, 11, and 20 (imo he would be 20 after the latest novel, but shouldn't be epic)...

Nah, he was a ranger from the beginning. He was trained in two weapons, stealth, and was the point guard and scout for his group from Melee Magthere. He knew the underdark and could survive in the wilds. He was quite obviously of the ranger "class" even before he was of the ranger "profession".

It's actually not that bad. What you are thinking of falls under rituals now. Think of Utility spells as non-damaging combat spells. Things like Dimension Door or Mirror Image. I actually like the new system and think it avoids the pitfalls of Vancian, but I was agreeing with the previous...

You still prepare your daily and utility spells each day instead of just having all the ones you know available... looks fairly Vancian to me.

Well, in Forgotten Realms where there are lvl 10+ priests on every street corner in major cities, it means that every merchant can't just go get a rez if he falls off a cart and breaks his neck. Under the old system, in a wealthy city like Waterdeep where clerics were overflowing, there was...

Rouse, can you shoot me an email? I'd like to know who to contact if I have a serious film pitch that I'd like to give. Thanks!
