And that's my point! Using a spiked chain no more offends my sensibilities than using magic. Because in fantasy, it doesn't have to be about sensibilities! It's about what makes the game fun. Of course, we all have our limits. Nobody has the right to tell you what is allowed or disallowed...

I find all this talk about the spiked chain funny. Granted, the D&D spiked chain is not exactly real life usable. But I really want someone to fire of a single magic missle before I listen to that argument with much belief! D&D isn't about reality so much as it is having fun. If I have a...

A quality suggestion, especially for being off-the-cuff. Although, it is remarkably similiar to ... wait for it ... a psionics solution to the problem! Which in my book is a good thing. That is one thing I love about psionics. A psion who is absolutely confident that they aren't going to...

Outside the wizard’s chamber, the hall remained quiet. The foursome standing in the hall had no idea of what was happening within the walls of the wizard’s chamber as they patiently waited in their protective formation. The longer they waited, the harder it became to manage the silence...

Interesting Question. Within the last month I've purchased "Buy the Numbers" - a pdf you can get through ENWorld's RPGNow affiliation. It has totally changed my approach to gaming in that I've never really liked the "preformed" class idea. I'd much rather design classes that I want to play...

Semeion nearly choked on the wizard’s dreams of grandeur. “That’s what this is about? You desire to seek glory for yourself? You want absolute power over Tongra?” The wizard was not fazed at all by Semeion’s sense of questioning. “Of course! I have spent years developing my network of...

Ophee bumped past Brandt’s shoulders as she moved into the room. “Loved me? You used me to try and kill these people! You brainwashed me using the Arum Dracunculus plant so that the people who trusted me would be innocently slain!” Semeion started to move forward with Ophee, but Brandt hand...

Why not just make a less powerful vampire and use it as a template? Vampires are certainly intelligent, but they've got a lot to give to bring the LA back down to a moderate level.

Master Searthu had promised that it would only take his arcane sensor a few seconds to find Ophee once she teleported outside her old master’s office. He was not wrong in his estimation. By the time the party was able to swarm inside the doors and join the two followers of Reah, the crystal...

I personally don't use the feat, because I don't like the spirit of the feat when mixed with a Prestige Class. If a player wanted to take it for a flavor reason and not as an entry into a PrC, I'd allow it. I do not consider it broken. However, a fair reading of the grammar of the Mystic...

Chapter Ten: YOU CAN’T GO BACK AGAIN The first of the two teleportations were easy to accomplish. Master Searthu was easily able to place an arcane spying device just outside of the property for the Wizard’s College. Once the arcane spying device was established, he tied it into a crystal...

In many cases, the party returned to Master Searthu’s office only moments after leaving. The meetings that resulted in individual battles took the least amount of time. Semeion, Ischarus, and Brandt returned to the office first. Fortunately, Master Searthu had arranged for a significant number...

Ischarus knew that his fight would not be easy. Ophee had already clued him in to that much. He looked deeply into the crystal ball one more time to look at his mark. Darr was not a large man, but his body movements suggested a highly toned muscular system underneath his clothing. He...

Brandt turned to Iscahrus, who was the only one to have waited to leave after Brandt. Brandt began to speak, but Ischarus smiled and spoke first. “Sir, with all due respect, I am used to leading. We’re going to go and fight our own battles, and I’ll fight better knowing that I was last.”...

Rhema twisted the ring on her finger just after watching Semeion disappear. She hadn’t wanted to watch any of his conflict. For one reason or another, that was the battle she was most concerned about. As she twisted the ring on her own finger, she hoped for his sake that that the size...

Yeah. I was posting in a thread I created in the Rules forum about the book, and I wanted to make sure I had the right ISBN number. [You can find the thread if you are more curious about my motivations.] So I copied and pasted! Of course, if I were to do a control + V right now you'd all...

Semeion twisted the ring on his finger and vanished from the inside of Master Seathu’s office. The follower of Reah smiled as he looked into the crystal ball that held the vision of the arcane spying spell of Barra’s office in Classo. He saw Semeion appear behind the tall and muscular woman...

Reply to Reader ... Not an Update. Thanks for the reply! I hope you are enjoying a bit of the solo action lately. I've been wanting to showcase the individual over the group for some time.

I'm going against the tide and say no. A good player can RP in any setting ... or no setting at all. [What I mean by that is a one shot where the world is unstated and the adventure is just a dungeon crawl or something to that effect] I've seen it done several times. Good RPers don't need a...

Hey, thanks all for the replies. I do really appreciate them. As for the art, when I finally get a look at Untapped Potential I'll have to decide for myself.
