X12 rips for the curtain, bracing himself for his attacker. OOC: I'm going to go with the saving throw. Then take total defense, regardless of the success of the save.

Actually, since the wizard must use a readied action, doesn't this provide the dragon with MORE options? As a readied action, the wizard voluntarily lowers his initiative to just before the dragon's action - that means the wall takes effect, AND then the dragon acts. For the speeds we're...

As long as the spell has V,S components, the dragon should get a Spellcraft check (since, IIRC, dragons have Spellcraft as a class skill, and most should have ranks in in). Without Hover, however, the dragon can't really do much due to its maneuverability. The dragon, if it has a move action...

Well... that makes a WORLD of difference... :D I'll alter my post this evening.

The Book of Erotic Fantasy might have... :D

Using the consideration of D&D races being of the same species, this is a great analogy, Umbran, and a very nice way of phrasing it, and arscott pointed out a very nice way of denoting this as well - Shadow Heritage from d20 Modern. Maybe a 'mutt human' would received the benefits from the...

1. Do objects accelerate towards the earth as they fall in your world? I usually just go with the book. 2. Do objects have Newtonian trajectories when they are thrown? We don't take arcs into account - it would just make things more difficult. 3. What do the stars that people see in heavens...

I've watched and watched, and it finally hit me... you just jumped off the train in 1974, didn't you? It's like the last 30 years didn't happen for you... :D My favorite video game experience... probably Castlevania: SOTN. It was the first game I can remember truly man-handling even though...

That's why I called it an EXTENSION. It's not EXACTLY how it works; it's a gross oversimplification of the Punnett concept, rendering everything down to one simple trait, but, on its face, if that's how he wants to do it, then he's correct in his thought processes - his Punnett math is fine...

"An older doctor sent me over here to assist," X12 says. "Has anyone identified this soldier, and notified his superior of his situation?" he asks the doctor. OOC: Ready action - Assume Total Defense if someone attacks me.

"This is starting out swimmingly," Prendalin mumbles mentally to himself. Leaning into his staff, he listens attentively.

Superboy (OK, 5 HP) Grabbing a bite to eat, Connor snags a piece of fruit and heads back into the TV room to catch some TV. It's not like he can't hear (in detail) all the planning, but he's grounded - no point in getting all wound up in a party that's more than likely getting the kibash by...

Didn't know that - don't have any KoK at this time.

I read through Feng Shui... it made my head hurt. :D I feel like I fit the stereotype on certain points - I like games with clearly defined rules, which is one of the reasons I wasn't too keen on my read-through of Feng Shui, with its dice pools and heavy reliance on subjective description...

Well, the real-world example isn't a truly correct analogy to the example given. The real world example is human + human = human. We're dealing with different species mating, not different heritages in one species. Your DM is using a property of real-world biology to explain his reasoning...

Resting in the dungeon doesn't bother me one bit - if they set a watch and make sure they've secured a perimeter for their 'camp.' I've never allowed my players not to rest, but they always knew I was checking for random encounters as soon as they decided to try it, at least once an hour. Risk...

My wife, a rabid non-player, understood this concept with even the most basic of explanations. I can't remember ever being confused by this particular usage of the same word for differing, yet slightly related concepts. That strip of OOTS was very funny, though... :D I think this is just one...

I'm glad to see we're starting to have some activity again... :D

Superboy (OK, 5HP) Connor breaks away, tracking after Starfire into the cafeteria. "I for one don't think one could ever have enough excitment to not be able to handle a flashing. I know I would have stopped what I was doing," he whispers as he passes. In a slightly louder voice, he adds...
