First: I apologize if this looks a little rough. I've been trying to knock out an Artificer for 5e, and I would love some feedback and ideas. Before you read, I would also like to point out that the item creation rules presented here would supersede those in the DMG. I got ideas for this from...

I just noticed that last month's new Artificer build wasn't included in the new update for the Character Builder. Has anyone else noticed things missing that should be in there? I mean, they included the Ardent, and that came out today.

What have you come up with? Boons seems like a great new addition, and I'm wondering what other people are doing. I just see this as a place to throw your stuff out there. Let's hear 'em!

I may run a Halloween one shot for some friends. I'm trying to get some ideas. If you're wondering why I'm asking a month and a half early, the answer is that the idea recently came up and things are already percolating in my mind. Game idea- The rogue member of House Vadalis based in the...

I'm DMing an Eberron game for 2 friends. One character is a Changeling Bard. The other is a Valenar Elf Ranger. They started at level 4. They're now level 7. They level up every 2 sessions. Combat is a secondary thing that I only use for them when it would have a point for the story. I knew...

I have a player who just developed a Dragonmark. I was wondering what other ideas people have had for Dragonmarks, especially for different Aberrant powers. Really, I'm looking for anything that is Dragonmarked that you have. Be it feats, items, Paragon Paths, whatever. While I only need a feat...

I may have missed it, but does anyone know what's going on with the Siberys version of Dragonmarks for 4th edition?

There's an article today with quite a few Necromantic powers for some of the classes. I'm surprised that I haven't seen anything about it. I'm at work, so I don't have access to it at the moment, but I thought that this might be a good chance for some of the people who do have access to make...

Let me set up this idea. I'm going to be involved in an occasional Wraith Recon game. I was told to make a weird character, the weirder the better, because the group will be about scaring the hell out of whoever they're up against. My mind immediately clicked to a Windwalker Genasi Dhampyr...

Have you already used the Draconomicon? Are you planning to in the near future? What adventures have you made for PCs? I recently had 2 players show up, so I decided to have them make 5th level characters and busted out the Draconomicon. I was able to run the entire one-shot with the book. The...

I love the multiclass feats. I also really like the new direction they seem to be taking them with the weapon feats from the Gladiator article. Basically, multiclass feats can be used to add some sort of "extra" to a character without tying it to another class. I also really liked the idea of...

I'm looking for another player or 2 for a 4th edition game. I currently have 2 permanent players. I recruited friends for the rest of the group and that... obviously didn't work. About the game: 1. We're there to have fun. I'm not a crazy rules-stickler, but 4th edition is straight-forward...

I'm noticing that the Spellscarred stuff requires a Spellscar as a prerequisite. Are there specific Spellscars written out somewhere that I'm missing? I only have the FRPG, not the FRCG. Are they in the FRCG?

There's a thread called "Games that didn't survive first contact...". There are, of course, a number of games mentioned that sound horrible in the context of the thread. I thought that I would start this as a way to "defend" some of these games, or just generally recommend a system that people...

I'm looking for a couple of players for a 4th edition game. We play at IUSB from about 6-10, sometimes later. Let me know if you're interested. The next game is this Friday, the 18th.

I decided to check out the Artifact section the other day. I found it to be pretty nifty. I like that there's a Heroic level Artifact. I would like to see more of them. Has anyone tried making Artifacts? If so, please post them in this thread. Any tier is fine. It can also be a great way to get...

It's been a while since I've read a good story on here that didn't involve creepy/scary players. I thought that I would start this to get some fun stories going. When have you had something humorous happen from a die roll that wasn't planned? Example- I was running an Eberron module with some...

While there has been plenty of talk about the merits and flaws of a POL setting, I've seen very little on actual locations. As such, I thought that this might be a fun thread for people to put their places in. What areas have you already started creating? What's the area look like? Who lives...

This is not a comparison between Exalted and 4E. I like what I'm seeing about 4E. I like Exalted. I was reading a thread talking about White Wolf's "Graduate your game" promotion. Someone said, "I like the setting, but I don't like the mechanics." It got me thinking. How would you use the...

This just hopped into my head and I liked the idea. I don't know if 4th will go this way, but it's a possibility. Hell, everything's a possibility right now. I'll use the Wizard as my base example. Things are listed as steps: 1. Choose Wizard. 1d4 hitpoints and access to all schools. 2. Stay...
