    Who Else Thinks This Dude Is Hot?

    Ah, I missed the enlargement. Yeah, the elf's hot -- but I still prefer the first guy.

    Who Else Thinks This Dude Is Hot?

    I think the OP's guy is HAWT. Totally my type. The steroid-drone is just ugh. I couldn't see the elf pic well enough to form an opinion (too small, which I hope is no indication of um... anything). (Gay male here, for the record)

    OotS #441

    Using that level in this battle would be the epitome of awesome.

    PHII druid shifter variant experiences

    I haven't had a chance to play it much, but my newest character is a warforged shapeshift-variant 'wild shape' ranger. I talked the DM into allowing a house-ruled additional 'woodland creature' shape from first level -- a non-combat stealth shape with small bonus to hide and move silent (in...

    3 Years of Unearthed Arcana

    Oh yeah, I used fractionals too. Love them, love them, love them -- wish they were core instead of the yucky rounded charts.

    December 2007 Releases on Amazon

    I swear I first read this as "Elder Elvis"... which I guess wouldn't be that different of a book. The brief blurb at Amazon on the races & classes book does not sound promising for toolkit goodness. It almost sounds more like a D&D coffee table book. :/

    3 Years of Unearthed Arcana

    Dabbled: Weapon groups (2 session campaign) Taint rules (modified -- same campaign) Sanity rules (modified -- same campaign) Alternate wizard specialist (2 adventure campaign, but I didn't see enough to tell) Used enough to evaluate: Traits (they're fine, wouldn't mind them as a 'core...

    OotS 430

    Did I actually get to start the OotS thread? And you are...? I do empathize with Xykon. I don't even remember the names of places we're currently in, much less NPCs we've fought in the past. My DMs are all used to translating my mangled versions of names into what they're actually supposed to...

    Order of the Stick #421

    Aaah, I love Elan. Of course, in a lot of ways I sort of am Elan, except for the whole 'loving the ladies' bit (& I was so disappointed when I first started reading the strip and finally realized he wasn't gay). Now if I could just find a good PrC mentor like he did. :heh:

    We went from 5 saving throws to...64!

    Hrm. I followed the link, opened up the character sheet pdf... Fortitude Reflex Will I count that as 3, not 5 or 64.

    What's the next "Scape" book?

    I've been in forests & jungles all over the world, but never have I seen sunlight 'nearly all' blocked out. Dimmer, sure, but not so much so that it was difficult to see (but maybe I have inherent Low-Light Vision & don't know it ;) ). '60' at most' would really depend on the forest. I can...

    Craziest combat move by a PC

    Had a barb fighting an ogre caster atop a rock spire, with most of the party below. The ogre got to the bottom (I forget how) & my barb was still up top, right above him. Hmm... spire is over 10', straight path -- vertical charge! :) Non-combat, but in another campaign we had killed some...

    Which is REALLY the best alignment?

    CG. Guiding principle of helping others (good) healthily balanced with individual freedom (& belief in the importance of such for everyone). I see L vs. C as group-focused vs. individual-focused ethics, so to the extant that this view deviates from RAW (& I'm not entirely convinced that it...

    advice on playing dumb

    Some random thoughts: - Take everything he hears literally. Sarcasm is far too complex for this guy. If anything, he might just see it as lying. - Even discussions of future possibilities are difficult, so if someone in the party is saying 'we could kick in the door & kill them all', he might...

    My favorite was V's response to Charm Person wearing off. :lol:

    Cheesy In-game things that make you want to scream.

    Eberron-specific: The Distinctive Changeling Any changeling NPC who plays an important plot role will have a Very Distinctive Feature, such as a scar or missing eye. This VDF will remain apparent in any form that the changeling takes, thus ridding the NPC of its one interesting & plot-worthy...
