    New PrC: The War Chef

    Inspired by the War Spatula. :) Not every cook is in an army, but every army needs feeding and the best armies employ the best cooks. The War Chef is the pinnacle of the soldier/cook, able to keep their troops fed and healthy and able to hold their own in combat. Many War Chefs are human...

    Exotic weapon for BBQ enthusiasts

    I'm not necessarily all about light-hearted campaigns but I do find that I like to play characters that are heavy on comic relief. :) Tonguez, thats pretty nifty. Not a bad likeness to what I had in mind, although that's somewhat fancier.

    Light Sources - Best Bang for Your Buck

    Someone in my Eberron campaign suggested that but I feel like it would be a bit of a pain in the hinder to have a light source that spent half it's time blinding you by spinning in front of your face and the other half being partially/completely blocked by your head.

    Exotic weapon for BBQ enthusiasts

    Dragon/Dungeon What Option Did You Take?

    Merkuri and I have opted for back issues, but we still haven't decided which ones. :)

    Fighting a colossus -- from 'cool' to 'holy f***ing s*** that was AWESOME!" - how to?

    You might actually want to treat attacks as AOE. Something, say, 100 feet (or more) tall is gonna have a pretty meaty (or stony, or...irony?) fist or club and it's likely that it can hit more than one square at a time. Perhaps instead of just a slam attack, it can have a "X" ft radius...

    D&D vs. Real Life

    In D&D, I can play a stocky bearded dwarf with an affinity for axes, horned helmets and beer. Furthermore, I am exceptionally stable thanks to a sort of racial feat, tough to knock over and thanks to my constitution bonus and racial traits, I am highly resistant to poison. In real life, I am a...

    D&D 4E I'm not gonna do 4E

    If it's well made I don't see any reason why I wouldn't play it. I highly doubt I'll be an early adopter though. My SO and I already own a slew of 3.5e books and I'd like to get some use out of them before rushing into the "next big thing."

    Height ladies?

    Cripes, I thought the difference between my significant other and I was big. Merkuri is 5'0 and I'm 5'9. I once knew a 5'2 girl who had an 7'0 ex. I can't help but wonder how they met. Maybe he was looking for a contact lens. :D

    Height Men!?

    I'm 5'9. The really bizarre thing is that I've shrunk an inch since high school. I lost 100 pounds after I graduated and apparently part of my head went with it. I also wear size 13 shoes, which I have no right to be using at my given height and am prone to trip over. I'm exceptionally stable...

    Odd but legal?

    I can't believe this much thread has been pulled out of a trip to the loo. :)

    Odd but legal?

    In that case, I won't tell you what I was REALLY doing, the three common household pets involved, the name of the shop where I got the equipment or the non-profit organization where it occurred.

    Odd but legal?

    Something stupid I thought of while visiting the little boys room. Lets say you have a 1st level character with Two-Weapon Fighting. This character currently only has one weapon, a dagger. Moving an item from one hand to the other is a free action, correct? So could this character attack with...

    How do you like your halflings best?

    Why do you read OotS?

    The funny thing is that I started reading it shortly before I even got into gaming. It probably wasn't beyond strip #60 at the time. I don't think my opinion of it has changed since I started gaming but then I've read more strips as a gamer than not. :)

    Creative Use of Low-level Magic.

    I was DM'ing the night everyone Greased the bandits. Did not see that coming. The horses and brigands were so mangled it looked like a centaur orgy gone horribly wrong. In any event, the single most versatile cantrip (and I might argue the most versatile spell ever) is Prestidigitation. My very...

    Things that bug you (spin off of Goldmoon's thread)

    A few things... 1: People who are too lazy to use their turn signals (I see this has been brought up already) It's not so damn tough. In my last car I didn't even need to take my hand off the wheel to flip the damned thing. 2: Many of the doors at my college have buttons that allow the...
