    Why aren't flat chested women ever barmaids?

    Bad question. If they were ninjas, he wouldn't have seen them.

    Create an "Assassin"

    Archivist. Because knowledge is power.

    So, I'm thinking of shrinking my party....

    Didn't Piratecat do something like this at one point? Would be interesting to see how he handled it.

    Need some ideas for a magical composite bow

    Stats based on that bow from the DnD TV show?

    2 feats, 200gp, to good?

    Meh, it's about the same as allowing flaws, and those don't mess up the balance too significantly. Most qualifications for PrCs and stuff for spellcasters need skill points over feats to determine level, but feat trees (which fighters are highly invested in) need a lot of feats.

    Dragon intrigue without magic possible?

    You know Tucker's kobolds? Yeah. Imagine them guided by, and with the support of, a freakin' dragon.

    "Alternate" half orc backstories.

    I thought that was dragonwrought kobolds...

    2 feats, 200gp, to good?

    As long as you don't allow flaws in conjunction with this, it shouldn't unbalance the game. Just give them the feats and deduct the 200 gp automatically, and give them the option of not getting a feat for 100 gp. Nobody will take you up on it, but nobody will feel guilty for "abusing" the system.

    "Alternate" half orc backstories.

    My take is that half dragons started off as powerful creatures given power in the service of their draconic masters (or through some other similar means). Drink the blood of a living dragon, gain some of its strength (special magical preparations needed, of course). Since dragons are reclusive...

    Non-magical infiltration of a magical place

    Outsiders called with planar binding. Extremely visible, since he wants them to scare off any potential thieves (replacing them is expensive).

    "Alternate" half orc backstories.

    That implies that the higher the charisma, the more half-breeds, correct? Explains all the half-dragons.

    Dino “mummy” has skin turned to stone

    Reminds me of Leonardo (who looks really cool in person.) http://www.montanadinosaurdigs.com/brachleo.htm

    Favorite Prestige Class

    Ironically enough, chameleon is actually better as part of a specialized character than a generalist one. Plus, two levels gives you the ability to craft any item.

    Explain the appeal of critical fumbles to me

    My fumble rules are simple and straightforward: Natural 1 on an attack roll is a critical fumble. See my table below for typical "fumble" results. I think critical fumbles add excitement to the game. Some people complain that critical fumbles on an attack roll unfairly penalize two-weapon...

    Rainbow Ray vs Scorching Ray

    Toss in a Lens of Ray Widening from Lords of Madness, which turns it into a cone of the same range (removing the single-target problem). Mind you, there's a few drawbacks 1.) Add a Dc 15 Reflex save for any effect 2.) +2 bonus versus the actual effect (not the reflex) 3.) Spells that affected...

    Great Fantasy Cities (and what makes them so awesome)

    I really like Taltasqa, The City Built around the Terrasque. All sorts of creepy goodness. And plot hooks. For example:

    The most important people in the world (my players stay out)

    What happens when you cast a spell?

    Snarky answer: My dad buys me $200 worth of gaming supplies.

    A question for super science geeks!

    Go with some sort of ritual-infusion on the asteroids to start with. Coat them with quintessence to keep the spells fresh, and use epic spellcasting to hide them from notice (or just start them hurtling at the planet in the Illithid's timeframe, and timeshift them back immediately. When they...
