Being from Europe, the subscription would cost me 71.95 US$, according to the Paizo site. A bit too much, considering that the National Geographic subscription comes out to less than 50 US$. I know we're almost talking apples and oranges here, but still 70+ $ is way more than I'm willing to...

You might try using psionics to meet all the prerequisites. A changeling (from Eberron) psychic warrior 8 can fulfill the prerequisites (provided your DM agrees that the 2nd-level psionic (telepath) power Read Thoughts can be substituted for Detect Thoughts). Also, you might want to look into...

In croatian we have 'vlah' (pl. 'vlasi'), a term which has several meanings: 1. a cattle-herder from the Balkan interior, in iddle ages; 2. a Romanian (Rumunj), which can be Cincar (a romanian from the region in between Greece, Albania, and Macedonia), Meglenorumunj (romanian from the southern...

Thanks! Yes. I always liked him, all with goats and everyhting ;)

They're called psoglavci (singular psoglavac) in Croatian (and,. likely, Serbian), from pas (dog) and glava (head). Literal translation :) And according to the said poem, they like to eat children. Is that the patron saint of travellers? I never put many ranks in Knowledge (saints), I'm...

See, it wasn't that hard to admit it ;) I'm almost ashamed to admit, but I know almost nothing of the cynocephali apart from the one-line mention in one of the poems of Vladimir Nazor (a Croatian poet and writer). [qote]The game was not D20 but was BRP (Runequest). I can forward along some...

I'd be interested in seeing what you did with Dalmatia as a campaign. What made you pick it as the campaign region in the first place? Not that it isn't an excellent choice (see avatar and location ;))... Unusual choices for the Turkic group. Bulgarian is (dare I say "definitely") a slavic...

Aw, my first double post :) My baby :D

Thanks, Altamont, the idea to visit the SNB site didn't even occur to me! :) Although I have to admit I'm a bit dissapointed, I was hoping for something more, well, occult, I guess ;) I presume you don't need the scan anymore, since you found the pics n the site, right? Thanks again!

I just noticed an interesting picture on the back of a 100 swiss francs banknote, sort of a circle, divided into eight equal parts (sort of like cake slices). The six points where the dividing lines meet the circle have names listed (topmost first, listed clockwise): - La nuit (that's night in...

This might work, but it's not very practica, IMOl. Due to the nature of the swarm subtype, you wouldn't be able to cast quite a number of spells on the swarm (no (greater) magic fang, only mass versions of cure spells will heal it, etc.). I wrote such a feat some time ago, here. Feel free to...

Now you got me interested. I always accepted that there were two "official" Latin pronunciations, and that he one the church used was the odd one, justified only by the fact that Latin is rarely used (even within the Catholic church), and is heavily influenced by Italian. My friend's mother is a...

I'll agree. I remember my great-uncle telling me how back in his day (before the WWII; he was born in 1909) French was the language primarily used in international communication (he called it "the language of diplomacy"). In fact, IIIRC, he learned english only during the WWII (at that point he...

Partly correct, if I recall my history lessons well :) Parts of Croatia (coastal areas mainly, especially around the town of Nin (Nona)) used Old Church Slavonic as lythurgical language (along with the glagollitic script), even if it was officially illegal (as declared on the First Split...

Historically, there were two different pronunciations of Latin, classical (said to be the way the original Romans pronouced it) and traditional (or mediaeval) Latin. It appears that today we have the third way, the "ecclesiatic" Latin heavily influenced by the Italian pronunciation. The...

Feel fre to use it, and modify it, to your hearts contetn :) But, perhaps the template jerichothebard mentioned would suit the purpose better. and I was thinking about this. In essence, this feat, similarly to Dragon Wild Shape (from Draconomicon) gives a higher-level druid an ability that...

They defniitely should be. But I don't unerstand why they're listed with the ES (Eberron campaign setting) superscript. They're not originally from Eberron, since Eberron doesn't even use the sub-races (except for the drow, who are considered an entirely separate race).

It's not "worse" than shapechange. It's just that with one feat (which is limited to higher-level characters) you gain a nice bundle of goodies when you wild shape. Shapechange can do all of that, and more (you're not limited neither by size nor by creature type), but it is a 9th-level spell...

My DM and I discussed the idea for a feat that would grant a druid the ability to wild shape into a swarm, but neither of us is quite certain how it'd affect the game. So we decided I should start a thread on the message boards. This is what I thought of so far: Prerequsites: Wis 19, Knowledge...

While it might sound as a spell-like ability, it's actually a supernatural ability, as listed in the 3.5 MM (p. 82, 85, 87). I should probably have mentioned I was referring to the Dragon Wild Shape feat from Draconomicon (p. 105). Prerequisites are: Wis 19, Knowledge (nature) 15 ranks, wild...
