    Sword Domain

    My thoughts Exactly. If the domain is about being good with swords, then I'd expect the first level spell to be True Strike. Maybe Cat's Grace at 2nd, and haste at 3rd. Then go for the Greater Magic Weapon, etc... and as spell level goes up, I'd expect the spells to broaden. That is, to go from...

    A not too drastic Paladin variant (your feedback please!)

    Perhaps adding paladin level to saves, mininium of cha bonus? Or is that horribly overpowered?

    classes in other games

    hero uses a point-buy system, and you can emulate just about anything. But sometimes the arithmatic bothers me.... and I tutor math and have a bachelors in the stuff. besm is a great all-round system for designing and playing just about anything. So long as it at least pseudo fits anime.

    Deity of Change.

    I'm working on a villian, or at least an anti-hero. He's attemtng to become a deity. I've got various ways in which this'll be done, but my big difficulty is in coming up with good descriptive visuals. I believe he's going to become a god of change, and I havn't thought of anything visual to go...

    Fantasy calendars vs. Gregorian calendar

    and besides, if you do 28-day months, then you end up an extra day and .. 13 months. At least how I've always seen it done. And come on, we can't have a 13-month calender. The scaredness would exist.

    Alternate Paladin - Fiends beware!

    under powered, I think. It just doesn't speak to me, it lacks that spark that makes me want to play it.

    Sorcerers and Bloodlines

    I give them Eschew Material Compoenents for free. And I don't mind if spell selection is done when the character needs it. (then they're stuck with it, of course). And I consider letting them cast in armor, but then don't actually do it. (Except in my gestalt game, and that's different.) But...

    Ever use Gestalt Character Rules from Un-Arcana?

    I'm running a gestalt game. 3 players. I forced one stream to be one of: druid, sorcerer, monk for in-game reasons. Its working out well thus far. So far as ECL races go ... I figure you have it take up one of the classes. So if you're playing (say) an plane-touched (+1 ECL), then at first...

    Why not? Stats above 25-Balanced?

    one time, we coudn't find the point-buy mechanic, so we game up with what we thougth was close. (we were off by 2 points). We started at 10. Buying up to 16 cost 6 point, 18 was another 4, for a total of 10. We were given 26 points. For everyone playing, that was 2 18s, a 16, and 3 10s...

    template extension?

    That's pretty. fly, 3 levels draining, cha to saves and ridiculous such things. As soon as my players are, ya know, 10th level, I'll be smacking this on top of my BBEG. ... the PCs are supposed to *win*, right?

    template extension?

    I think I'll try to use both. I wonder ... does the "master vampire" prestige class give spellcasting? Probably not. If it did though, it'd be a great prestige class for the clericy part. What does the Evolved Undead template give? And what does the lifedrinker do?

    template extension?

    Hey, In my game, I've got a nemesis for the PCs who is a gestalt vampire/cleric. Like most of us, I could give you all a full detailed description of him, but let's just say that his name is Carcass and he was origionally an orc. Who the PCs captured, tortured, and then let go. I've let the...

    Greater Restoration and Clerics

    Is it a good combat-restore? Since GR can restore multiple levels at once, if you are being attacked by some level-sucking creature, it could be useful. i guess.

    Greater Restoration and Clerics

    coudn't he just use multiple normal restoration spells? Or doesn't it work like that?

    D&D 3.x Munchkinest 3E cleric build?

    for your second domain .. If you want to be able to do just about anything, go for the magic domain. Then you can use wands and such.

    No ASF if proficient in armor or a 'spells in armor' skill?

    precious skill points! Especially for a sorcerer, there really arn't enough skill points to go around. How about, the ASF/5 (that whole % to d20 conversion) adds to the difficulty of concentration checks?

    The Grues are back!

    Since no one else has (or even noticed, I think...) "And whats with the bleen stuff?" bleen and grue are predicates that we use in philosphy. We define them just to show that normal precidates (like green and blue) arn't projectable (that is, go into the future) in the way we think they are...

    Gestalt Character + ECL race?

    So if you were, say, a hobgoblin (+1 ECL), you'd for first level be say, a hobgoblin/fighter, and then go onwards from there as normal, with normal is gestalt or conventional? Certainly reduces the penalties. All of them, I think.
