    More the merrier? I don't think so.

    I have found that five or six is a good number for me for D&D, and having two players come back to my Call of Cthulhu GURPS game (after having four for a while) six gets a little rowdy. I have gamed with eight PCs in D&D and GURPS and that was the cutoff point--too much happening at once! My...

    What's the point with Skill Tricks?

    IIRC, this was about doing w/o provoking an AoO. Have you tried it while two friends are swinging broomsticks at you? Were you able to fend them off with your broomstick?

    How would a temple of Wee Jas handle this?

    I didn't know Deadpool had a D&D crossover.

    How would a temple of Wee Jas handle this?

    Not "buy" per se, perhaps, "otherwise compensated" in spellcasting or magic item creation or services (2 temple clerics as bodyguards for a month, access to library+assistants, etc.). If the temple was a large and strong one (either individually or in the area), they might vaguely or strongly...

    How would a temple of Wee Jas handle this?

    To destroy it, duh. That's why paladins go to find evil artifacts (viz. Ghost Tower of Inverness), to destroy them.

    Ideas for Tome of Magic II

    The Sha'ir from Al-Qadim could have his gen familiar fetch divine spells as well as arcane spells. They didn't have spellbook or anything, their familiar disappeared into the planes and got whatever spell they wanted, taking various amounts of time depending on the specific spell wanted. The...

    If you were king, how would equip your kids?

    The first son, gets the traditional and ancient royal shield guardian as a bodyguard and quarters in the main temple of Pelor in the land, to be educated as an heir should and protected there (under it's protective Forbiddance and Hallow spells) until he comes of age. The other, non-critical...

    Mayfair "Role Aids" products: Favorites? Conversions?

    I understand that. Run it? No, I have not. I got Elves a year or two ago in a lot of Dragon, Dungeon, and 1e adventures and several other random things like these books, all for $35. You liked it. I don't. Let's agree to disagree.

    "Memorable"? I guess it could be termed "memorable"...I guess the stupid stuff--Imps of Darkness, whipping the slaves, the swan island, the Guaranteed Non-Poisoned Food store...overshadowed the so-so stuff.

    Mayfair "Role Aids" products: Favorites? Conversions?

    HAHAHAHA! I have Dragons and Elves. Dragons, well. If it didn't totally reinvent dragons and just added somewhat to them, it might be interesting to use. PCs playing dragons through the life-path system where they can learn all kinds of dragon powers as they get older might be interesting...

    Does this sound like an Über caster to you?

    I think you should just get different DMs for this character. This group of DMs you describe seems extremely paranoid about changing anything, I doubt you will be able to make this character.

    What don't you like about D&D?

    And gives them a reason to go to other planes, where high-CR creatures are more common. :)

    There's a lot of feats. How to get more of them to see play?

    I just looked at the ones in Complete Arcane again and sure enough, about half of 'em still suck. Gotta take the suck to get the flash, so I guess it's balanced, at least with those.

    There's a lot of feats. How to get more of them to see play?

    Okay, yeah, interlocking feats like that also would be pretty bad. Maybe. What all other feats has he taken?
