    Pinnacle's Forgotten Forge, etc. OoC

    Okey dokey. I was just curious, though I was never considering an actual house mark anyway, just pondering the possibility of developing an aberrant mark in play later ;)

    Pinnacle's Forgotten Forge, etc. OoC

    Hehe, not trying to be difficult. It just occurred to me. If you look at the list of dragonmarked races, all of the "half-" races that are explicitly part of the ECS are listed. Half-Giants aren't explicitly present in the ECS (Although they fall under the "everything in D&D has a place in...

    Pinnacle's Forgotten Forge, etc. OoC

    Um, another question. They're not specifically listed as a dragonmarked race, but wouldn't a half-giant have the potential to manifest an aberrant mark? Considering they're half human and all ;)

    Pinnacle's Forgotten Forge, etc. OoC

    Right, forgot to put his save bonuses in :) Also, I knew the party had a fighter or two proposed already, but I figured Alex, while he's just a tough at ECL1, would end up being more a utility player later on as a psychic warrior with excellent healing abilities. Besides, as a chain user he's...

    Ok... Alex the Half-Giant warrior... Hopefully will live long enough to be Alex the Psychic Warrior later on :) http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheets/view.php?id=43354 Oh, and I very much plan to take Empathic Transfer and such, so Alex will make a very nice secondary healer for the group, as...

    Pinnacle's Forgotten Forge, etc. OoC

    Oh, question... If I wanted to play a Half-Giant from XPH (LA +1), can I buy off the LA when he hits ECL 3? And if so, would he lose his NPC class level doing that (Just trying to wrap my head around how that would work... would kind of suck to go from expert 1/fighter 2 to expert 1/fighter 1...

    Pinnacle's Forgotten Forge, etc. OoC

    Wow, lots of fighter types already... Still, I could make a spiked chain user for battlefield control purposes, deal with the small fry types and let the others concentrate their (likely higher) damage on the big guys... Or I could roll up a psion... Or an artificer... So many choices...

    Starting a New Campaign - Advice

    You could play the campaign I was going to DM which never materialized: The players are a mercenary company with their own airship. This lets you run different little missions and scenarios in different places each session. My concept was to sort of do Firefly in Eberron, I'm still sad that it...

    Those Neutrals Make Me So Mad!

    Yeah... I'm... Not sure how the other players can kill the paladin's prisoner and not expect repercussions. I mean, that's not cool. If the paladin's player is supposed to just roll with it, that's not respecting others' roleplay, that's completely disregarding his roleplay so that everyone else...

    Games you thought you'd like and hated and games you thought you'd hate and liked

    Heh, I actually like the dice pools in Exalted, because of the way it combines stats and skills so directly to give an immediate tangible effect on what you can do and how well you do it. The trick is you need to actually have about 30 d10s... If you end up having to roll dice multiple times...

    Pinnacle's Forgotten Forge, etc. OoC

    Yay! I want to play! Um... I'm not sure *what* I want to play... But I definitely want in. I've always wanted to play this (Haven't had a proper group since Eberron was created really, and was mostly DMing then).

    Arabesu's Eyes of the Lich Queen, w/ Boons! - OOC

    Are you guys still recruiting? I couldn't tell from the thread, and I'm jonesing for an Eberron game. (It's probably spelled out somewhere and I'm just not seeing it because it's 2AM, so I apologize for asking in advance).

    The Forgotten Forge Recruiting

    Just on the off chance you guys need an extra player, I'd love to play this campaign. I read over it when I first got the Eberron Campaign setting book, and thought it was great, but never got to play it. I can't really remember it, except that I liked it, so I promise not to be metagaming ;)

    Games you thought you'd like and hated and games you thought you'd hate and liked

    I'll throw in my hat with the people who can't stand Shadowrun. The thing is, the setting is awesome. I'd have to think long and hard to find words to describe how much I love it. The mechanics on the other hand... The balance is awful, to start with. Cyborg "street samurai" are 1000000 times...

    The awesome encounter that wasn't.

    This is actually my favorite moment ever, but I know the GM meant it to be significantly harder than it was. We were playing the GM's homebrew system in a play-by-post campaign. The party was all low level, just 1st/2nd basically (Although it's hard to translate the systems). A few of us...

    Gauging interest in a Xen’drik Campaign

    Would you be allowing material from Magic of Incarnum? Specifically the Azurin race and Incandescent Champion PrC?

    The Best & Worst of 3rd Edition: Ultimate 3E: Unearthed Arcana, Eberron, Pathfinder

    I voted for Eberron. I got into D&D in 5th grade. We all had uber kill anything munchkin characters of course. Between then and high school, I got much more interested in the roleplaying element of things, and eventually got fed-up with D&D as a whole. Too formulaic, too constrictive, too much...

    Would you allow this paladin in your game? (new fiction added 11/11/08)

    I'd allow it. The Player's Guide doesn't require a Paladin to be religious at all, simply to have strong belief in a cause. I tend to assume the Paladin's powers come from his own conviction. I would, however, gently suggest to the player in question, that he change his monologue slightly...
