Character is complete, however, I haven't figured how hp is being calculated. To avoid editing the character once posted, I would like to have that clear before posting.

Choosing languages for my character I thought it would made sense to him to study at least one language known to the enemy. So could you know what are the kinds or at least the most numerous or proeminent type of Maissen's attackers? Or perhaps you don't associate languages with humanoid races...

Very well. What else should I know as for character creation, available resources and start of game?

I'd be interested. Never played a PbP yet, however. Looked to me that a 3rd level rather classic DnD was a good place to start. If character concepts should start piling up I'd play a Halfling Wizard. What would be the expected time-frame between posts?

I never took over a game directly from another GM. A couple of times people asked to GM a game I was running previously and once I handed a campaign directly into another GMs hands. I do GM a lot, however, and would advise you to try to run a short game with your own style for the players while...

I find that awesome that they were made into templates!:D My only regret is that they are really pitiful creatures. I always thought that the undead should be more of a scary lot.

Definetely a lurker here! Currently 7. 90% of the time. 5 others have GMed in the past. But at most it lasted for a year. Most of the time, its me. Others never GM my campaigns though, always alternate games. To the consternation of all the involved 0. We had a handful of female gamers in...

Otyugh While exploring some underground complex, the party finds the wrinkled body of a dead dwarf preventing the sliding door of a secret passage to close back. Further examination of the body may reveal it was a derro and a Heal check (DC 15) will reveal he died of some disease (DC 25...

From the look of the 3.5 art on WotC's page, seems like Devis is now in Description (chapter 6). He is now a second rank iconic, like Redgar.

I like Beyond Monk's Martial Artist just fine. You can also check Kenneth Hood's take on it: http://www.darkshire.org/~jhkim/rpg/srd/sleepingimperium/index.html The paladin revision (if you mean the Paladin for Dnd revised 3rd Edition) can be found at Olgar's compiled revisions thread...

In the Earthdawn setting orcs, and in the Sword of Truth series Mud People, greeted strangers and newcomers by slapping/punching them in the face. The punching person does so to demonstrate respect for the other's strength. You may have trouble preventing your players from drawing weapons...

If everyone at the game table is new to 3E there shouldn't be too much trouble, you'll adapt slowly as a group. Still, it would be nice to read the rules before game starts (if possible). If some of the players are familiar to 3E, then special attention should be paid to the combat section and...

Don't have the 3.5 books, still... I don't have any of the 3.5 books. In fact, I shouldn't be seeing one until august as I live in Brazil and rpg books are hard to come by here. However, as I'm deeply interested in the 3.5 revisions and have been scurring these posts for scoops for a long time...

88 . 'Wish' him happy. 89 . Curse your colorblindness and ask him politely what color he is wearing. 90 . Bribe him with that lifesize, beer-filled, chocolate MEG_Hal I read about in some other thread ("most useless rpg item you spent money on" if I'm not mistaken). 91 . Tell him to remain...

I mostly greatly appreciated the new rules for grappling. Only one small thing annoys me: I like the chance to move while grappling but how do you picture a gnome fighter 10 moving, grappled, with like 3 1st level half-orcs warriors grappling along? Just try and figure the half-orcs as your...

I read it in the gamingreport scans too but got a little confused by it as it seemed to clash with the Githzerai write up. In that one they state: Now, for starters I never understood why not give all 10's to monsters since they are writing up average ability scores, but now they are almost...

I agree with almost everything that has been written so far. My only troube is that PrCs are also seen as the only way to customize characters system-wise besides feats. Several of them were designed to tailor a character better to some kind of specialization, not as a member of an organization...

To me it is usually the people at the table, their attitudes and eventually how they see the rules that determine the fun. If a GM allows a group with a Glitterboy Pilot and a Vagabond, it can be because it will be mostly a political game or an adventure in a city's slums. If not and the...

Invisible Stalker The party stumbles on a very large underground lake. The magenta crystal formations on the lake's border identify it as the fabled Lake of Alabaster Gold. The stories tell that the bottom of this lake is lined with pearls of all sizes. A Knowledge:Local (DC 10) or an...

Riddles can be fine (Yes, I'm one of those that appreciate them) but it rarely does to have them as necessary to advance the game. I tried it a couple of times and it was very frustrating. If riddles are bonus things or an aspect of the game that can be solved anyway it is fine but if it is...
