gabriel I think the confusion with Gabriel is in his "messenger" role. Part of that responsibility included fetching souls to heaven, lending the interpretation of the angel of death. At least, if I'm remembering what reading I did on angel mythology a few years back. That same...

Mistmoore Mistmoore is all about pathing. In a nutshell, its bad. Baaaad bad bad. Things will zig zag all over before they bother running to you. Also, Mistmoore is an outdoor zone, so walls and doors arent really considered solid by the game. Walls block line of sight just fine for aggro...

correct meepo EQ pnp characters have a few more hitpoints, but primarily its that players do damage a bit faster. The haste system in EQ pnp (which is actually very clever) tends to allow a melee to pump out more damage in a single round. Likewise, caster burn spells tend to be more efficient...

. The second five books are a series in their own right, which focus on Corwin's son. They're good, but in a different sort of way from the first series. They're much more sci fi (Merlin, the protagonist, is a computer engineer by trade). They also introduce a great deal more cosmology, some...

. I'm not sure if it was a jab at the old graphics bug, or an artist who was unaware that the tinting was a bug at all. I'm more inclined to believe the latter. I wish the art would change, personally. Overall, the EQ rpg's artwork isn't stellar. Passable, but Scarred Lands gets far better...

class and slacking. We wrote the book. Lemme tell ya a little story about my Computer Science class in high school. Our school was (at the time) the largest high school in Georgia, so it got quite alot of money to try new things, and test new class formats. Well, a CS class worked its way...

. The mana costs seem to have been roughly based on the spells from the online game in relation to one another. Things that cost a ton of mana online also cost a ton in the rpg. This works for most spells, but some have been altered to better represent the cost. The Alkabor spells, for...

. Havent read the whole thread yet, if this is repetetive, skip it. Nathaneal, you're worried about bad publicity... but that doesn't really exist. A sealed section just makes the logged off script kiddies who are picking up the magazine ooh and aah over it, and take it home to sneak it...

contacts My team was contacted a few weeks ago as well, with the same request for all member's signatures. I'd certainly like to think it means we ended up on someone's top ten list. Woulda been nice to win, but our proposal was a setting we were designing anyway, before the contest was ever...

college www.gatech.edu This is where I'm at currently, we're one of the top ranked tech schools in the country. Its in Atlanta, which is a blessing or a curse, but our campus is quiet and generally very pleasant. The vast majority of our student body is either computer science, or an...

school This was my first week back at college for the fall. Classes started bright and early Monday morning. Anyone else at GA Tech around here? Heylel

I'll be there helping promote a new NERO chapter i'm involved with. Drop by the NERO International booth, several of us are going and it happens I know some extremely fine armor smiths. Come check out the handywork =) Heylel

dragoncon Paladin: It often surprises me when someone mentions they havent heard of DragonCon. I guess because its not really a gaming convention specifically, just a convention at which games are played. DragonCon is the big convention in the south every year. Its more than just games, its...

dragoncon Paladin, you might want to consider DragonCon in Atlanta for a sales opportunity also. Its probably too late to get a booth at this year's (end of August), but they routinely draw 20,000 people or so. Just thought I'd mention it, I know alot of gamer folks who show up to that every...

Old Man Winter Old Man of the Sea Merlin (duh) Jesus (someone had to say it) Moses (ditto) On a more literary note, I'd say most if not all of the House of Amber would be epic in the extreme, in most cases. Heylel

Centurion of The Ancient Order of Naked Chick Magazines, Heylel Teomim Hell yeah Heylel

eq I really look forward to this setting being given a real RPG treatment. I've cribbed alot of dungeons from EQ before, because I've continued playing eq well past the rest of my gaming buddies. The higher level dungeons work amazingly well as instant maps for DnD games, and usually require...
