While you're at it, could you describe the Changeling racial feats? Thanks!

What are the feats for Changelings/Doppelgangers? Are the Aerenal elves elves, or eladrin? Are there feats that are specifically for Valenar or Aerenal elves? Any for gnomes, or talenta halflings?

That's pretty close, actually. Here's the picture that was one of the inspirations for Korm. That's basically him, but with the following big sword, made of meteoric iron, instead of the staff. He's about as unkempt as that picture, if slightly less hairy. At any given time he's...

I'm curious whether the PF book will have any guidelines on how to change spells from 3e supplements to better fit the PF ethos. For example, it's been stated that PF got rid of save-or-die spells. It would be nice if there was a text box somewhere in the book that said what was changed, and...

I really liked that the Applied Phlebotinum plot device was called "red matter", and never explained. It's a big blob of red paint that creates black holes. That's good enough for me. I gave the movie a 3.5. It was far from perfect, but it was immensely enjoyable, and shows even more promise...

Hi Aberzanzorax, I'm the guy Mallus talked about. I'm finishing my doctoral dissertation in clinical psychology, and I've been a gamer for most of my life, so I'll give you whatever feedback I can. My training and experience has been with adults and adolescents, not children, so there may be...

A few months ago, Steve changed from being M&M lead developer (more of an oversight and planning role) to being a designer. This product is probably at least partially completed if they're announcing it, so it could be that Steve changed roles to work on this.

I love those goblins! Nice insight. There's also much more tension in the red's pose. There's no tension in the green, it's just standing there comfortably. But the red's forearms are raised and curled, and even its back legs are tensed in a crouch; it's not in a comfortable 'resting' state...

I've played a lot of 3e and 4e, I agree with those who recommend 4e. It's really easy and fun to GM, and it's much better balanced, especially at high levels. You said that you wanted to play a "PC werewolf/Bard fighting against a Necormancer and his legion of dead and the only thing stopping...

(I can't believe I'm responding to a 7 year old post) There are, but to western ears Chinese operas sound hideous. There are few things I find more grating than Chinese opera, and I like a lot of odd tonal music. Kodo has some good albums with traditional and non-traditional Japanese music...

I don't like Wilden at all, or killoren. Wildren is better than Wilden. Woodwose is good for its folkloric roots, but may sound a little silly.

In our currently Eberron game, we have an NPC scout named Tunicus Ruber Morituri... which is bad Latin for "red tunic who is about to die" How about a halfling islander bard named Daplane Boss. A friend of mine had a Shadowrun detective named Mack Truck, and once played a blonde bimbo stripper...

Ever since hearing the first Penny Arcade D&D podcast I've had a perverse desire to play a wizard named Chet Awesomelaser. For a brief joke game, I played Sir Osis of Liver. He drank a LOT. In the dungeoncrawling heydey of junior high school, I played a series of characters named Umar the...

For fiction, I'm reading The Elegance of the Hedgehog, by Muriel Barbery. For non-fiction, I'm reading The Fall of Rome: A New History of Rome and the Barbarians, by Peter Heather. I'm also reading a couple books and way too many journal articles for my dissertation. It's weird: To relax and...

I'm curious what the new builds for the Bard, Sorcerer are. Is there a Bard build that benefits from a high Dex, and/or which uses ranged weapons?

I finished the second Wild Cards book, Aces High. Now I decided to take the plunge and am reading A Game of Thrones. I generally prefer self-contained novels, but I've heard too many good things about Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire, and was in the mood for an epic fantasy with feuding...

The upcoming supplement "A Song of Ice and Fire Campaign Guide" should also have what you're looking for.

Oh yes. Of the Newhamp Shire Darkmagics. I am SO tempted to name a character Chet Awesomelaser, after the crack that they made in the first podcast making fun of Jim Darkmagic's name.

Absolutely. I like mature themes in games, but I'm not sure D&D's capable of it. I don't want to see a 4e version of The Book of :):):):):):):) and Gore (AKA the book of vile darkness). Edit: Wow, the language censor is really sensitive here. It doesn't even like the cheezy word for breasts...

I personally would use savage worlds. It's very quick and easy, but has lots of detail, and PCs are able to customize their fighting styles easily. Also, tricks, taunts and intimidation can play a big part in the combat system. Plus, the game's all of $10 for a full color book, so it's easy...
