But of course! Glad you liked the unreliability nerf for the ethereality too. Heh. Just speaking for myself here, a whisper gnome ninja or azurine incarnate is the kind of thing my players inflict on me anyway, so they're kinda mundane. I'm looking forward to trying a character that isn't...

Yeah, there's also http://www.crystalkeep.com/d20/index.php. They have the consolidated feat lists from all of the Complete books, as well as all the base classes and a number of different races. It's where I found the Hexblade and Shugenja's stats, actually. Does anyone have an opinion on...

Alrighty. I might almost be better to consider this an alternative bard than an altered hexblade, though, since the bard is closer to what I want for the character (just debuffing instead of buffing). Maybe I should look into some other way to get the same effect... I'll do that while others...

Okay, let's see if I can get this to format right... Following the progression out from above, out to 10th level (as high as we should need) --> Hexer (alt. Hexblade) Hit Die: d8 Skill Points: 6 + Int Mod./Level Class Skills: TBD LVL......BAB.....Fort.....Ref.....Will.......Special...

I thought of another point of comparison for the alt. Hexblade - the druidy-Bard variant in Unearthed Arcana gets the animal companion, nature sense, resist nature's lure, and wild empathy abilities of a druid in exchange for the "inspire X" line of abilities and bardic knowledge. The cursing...

Yikes! That's probably more than necessary, I think. Don't forget that the blink dog has a fair share of negatives to go along with all the other stuff - I can't speak a humanoid language without getting some kind of item, I have no hands for items and the like, I can't (and wouldn't anyway)...

Fenris - Something I just noticed. Unless I'm missing something, your ECL is way above what it should be. Your base ECL is 5 for your satyr HD, plus 2 level adjustment, for a total of 7. So you should only have one Druid level, I think... Unless Isida has some kind of house rule regarding LA...

Bront - I'm in Loyola of Chicago's philosophy Ph.D. program. I live on campus, essentially, so Roger's Park, right near Lake Michigan. Do you know of any groups around here looking for people? Isida and others - Well, I've got two ideas I like, but unfortunately will be a bit too wimpy for my...

I'd be interested in meeting you and your wife and getting a game going. I just arrived in Chicago from Texas - I'm a philosophy graduate student at Loyola University of Chicago - and I need a group. Can't bring anyone else along with me, though. You can get in touch with me at mkelsey at luc...

Hey Isida. I'd like to get in on this if you still have the room. Unfortunately, I can't make a lower-level version of Arion, largely because Bard is banned. I guess I could make an *actual* Ninja, but then I'd have to have a decent Wisdom, and where's the fun in that? Also, I just moved to...

I'd strongly consider a dual-wielding bard, actually, with the awesome power of Arcane Strike (Complete Warrior) and 6 attacks per round, 7 hasted. That's a full attack sequence with +5 on all attacks and +30-35d4 extra untyped arcane energy damage a couple of time per day, with only slighly...

Danke. And many happitudes to you and yours!

A furnace kindler allows a Reflex save to half the damage it deals - the DC of that Reflex save is affected by the range to the target. Essentially, the device projects a 50-foot cone of fire (5 range increments; an unusually large area of effect, for what it's worth) and deals its damage in...

That's true. Actually, it reminds me of one plane in Beyond Countless Doorways where formians are invading a forest dominated by aranea. Giving aranea tech in that scenario would make for a very strange game, thematically, I would think. Heh. Yeah, it really isn't hard to find D&D races or...

Oh, nuts. I know I mentioned to Ryan that I was adapting those rules (not copying, for whatever that's worth; there are some significant differences) from Unearthed Arcana, but I forgot to make sure it was in the section 15 when I proofread the document. I'll add that to the list of stuff to...

Of course that would be the obvious solution, if you want the flavor without too significantly nerfing the technologist. :heh: My only thought is that you might annoy the other PCs with a technologist if this is the case - most players I know have been trained by D&D into automatically...

Hmm... Depends. Are you looking for a way to actually make devices less effective? A quick way to do that would be to require an activation level check to successfully activate a device, in the neighborhood of 10-15. That'd ensure that only the best technologists have devices that are...

Ah, I wasn't aware of that. Oh well. As for the morality question, eh, I was never really impressed with spells that change your alignment. Don't like feats and such that let you wear people down with Diplomacy checks either. So no, I haven't made any similar spells or abilities. I prefer...

A bit old? RW, this thread is ancient. But, in honor of its resurrection, I’ll go back over the thread and mention how I dealt with some of the problems various people pointed out. :) If the teaser, or the book itself, or the recent review make you wonder about anything, this thread is as...
