    Essentials Thief can't take Trap Master?

    At the risk of repeating myself: check the "Other Sources" entry on page 57 of HoFL. It's legal to select powers of the same class, level, and type from other sources, and the new CB is wrong.

    Essentials Thief can't take Trap Master?

    On one hand I think it should remain restricted to rogues because finding and removing traps has traditionally been their specialty. On the other hand I'd be inclined to allow it if the character in question has a rogue MC feat and a story reason to attain such a level of mastery in removing...

    Essentials Thief can't take Trap Master?

    Have you tried to retrain Slip from the Grasp to Trap Master? New CB issues aside, I don't see why it shouldn't work. Actually, I don't see why you shouldn't be able to take Trap Master right away; check the "Other Sources" entry on page 57 of HoFL.

    Class Acts: Hierophant Druids and a surprise

    Looking at the flavor text, to me it's obvious that drawing power from the Elemental Chaos (with the risk of transformation into a primordial) means that you have access to the Elemental power source. (Btw, Elemental is also a keyword to denote a type of creature.) To put it another way, it...

    Class Acts: Hierophant Druids and a surprise

    Those icons are a nice addition IMO. WotC should use them more consistently, e.g. the recent Channel Divinity articles from Dragon 395 didn't have any.

    Class Acts: Hierophant Druids and a surprise

    The flavor of the elemental power source as described in the article indicates a strong connection to the Elemental Chaos and the primordials. IIRC the Feywild has a strong connection to the arcane (I think that's mentioned in MotP), as shown in the recent Class Acts: Knight article.

    Class Acts: Hierophant Druids and a surprise

    The new Class Acts article is up: Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game Official Home Page - Article (Hierophant Druids) In it we get the first powers of the Elemental power source. Well, both Elemental and Primal, actually. I had assumed this power source had died a quiet death, so this is a...

    [AV2] Rules for Tattoos?

    - A character can only have one magical tattoo at a time - They're usually applied with Enchant Magic Item or by using a tattoo stone (a single-use magic item) - They're removed using Disenchant Magic Item, and the subject must be willing or helpless

    Placing a kingdom in Eberron / Forgotten Realms

    Thanks for the tip, Klaus. Unfortunately the old Eberron novels are very difficult to get here. I'm glad I managed to get the Dreaming Dark. :)

    I hope they'll be generic enough to be portable to PoLand. OTOH there should be quite some stuff ready for release through Dragon now that several books won't see print.

    So Dark Fury doesn't affect the Darkspiral aura. That's interesting. Updating list...

    basic differences in rules per edition

    2E - Wizards have 9 spell levels, clerics and druids have 7 spell levels - Clerics can get quest spells (Tome of Magic), wizards can get 10th level spells and higher (certain Forgotten Realms supplements) - When you take damage while casting, your spell fails automatically - Wizards aren't...

    Obsolete Feats

    Good catch; list updated. Which other builds can make good use of that category of feats?

    Placing a kingdom in Eberron / Forgotten Realms

    Well, the Eberron Campaign Guide has the following entry: Shifters were also persecuted despite them not being true lycanthropes, and I got the impression that there's a certain level of animosity between shifters and the church. There's probably more info in the 3.5 sourcebooks, but I don't...

    Placing a kingdom in Eberron / Forgotten Realms

    Most Thranes follow the church, at least that's my impression. The royals make a show of supporting the church in public, and this being Eberron you can bet that there's a disgruntled heir somewhere who'd love to become king. (Some of the higher-ups inside the church aren't exactly pious, either.)

    Placing a kingdom in Eberron / Forgotten Realms

    In Eberron the Kingdom of Thrane (actually a theocracy) might fit. Thrane is ruled by the Church of the Silver Flame which tried to exterminate all lycanthropes (including shifters) on Eberron. It's a common belief that preoccupation with sorcery leads to corruption. There's still a royal line...

    Off-line Character Builder and the Skill Power Feat

    Skill Power is under the Heroic Tier Feats header and should also show up if you type it in the search bar. The character in question should be 2nd level or higher; the feat won't show if you have selected the level 1 feat or human bonus feat. The power is assigned in the Powers Tab -> Power...

    I thought of BD&D's Elf class when I heard of the role switching. They have the correct link up now. Yay! :)

    Ever see a Strengh 18/00 rolled legitimately?

    I don't think I ever saw an 18/00 outside of CRPGs. The highest I rolled was an 18/8x.
