    Do You Prefer to Play a Human PC When RPGing?

    Many of my characters are human because, well, bonus feat and bonus skillpoints rock. ;)

    What are the biggest real-life hinderances to your gaming?

    Lack of responsible players. My group has cancelled two or our three last meetings, both because people decide to make plans the day of our scheduled get together that was set up a week in advance. I may be able to snag one reliable player from this group... I guess it's time to see if I can...

    1001 Foolproof Trolls

    20. Psionics > Magic!

    Fantasy Races (DnD or otherwise) with strong backstory and culture

    I'm fairly partial to the Warforged. I had been tinkering with a PC intelligent golem race for a while when I heard about the Warforged being released in Eberron. I like how they function mechanics-wise and their default Eberron fluff is really interesting. However, my favorite race has to be...

    Complete Psionic - heal my ignorance

    Drowbane's correct. Complete Psionic introduces three new base classes, a few feats, PrCs, and powers, but is merely a suppliment to the Expanded Psionics Handbook which details all the "basic" psionic classes, races, feats, skills, powers and PrCs as well as including that useful information...

    The Iconics are out in force

    Well, if she died, we could always let Jozan take a break and have her Reincarnated instead...

    Do You RPG More Than Once Per Week?

    [insert required "not enough options" comment that seems to be mandatory before posting in a poll thread] Once a week? No. Once a month? If I'm lucky. *sigh* :(

    Where do YOU steal your names from?

    I find the Everchanging Book of Names to be rather helpful. With a few clicks, I can generate a couple of dozen names. Out of that big pile, there are often a few that are worthy of being used :)

    Oh no Conan just DIDNT!

    Or a rather silly Magic: The Gathering card?

    Why would you want to play *that*??

    I fully agree with Presto2112. I have never managed to grasp why some people think roleplaying and number crunching have to be exclusive to one another. Sure, some people will treat their character as just a block of statistics and be happy with it. Others will focus solely on their...

    War Drums- Too Many Humanoids!

    If you're not interested in using the miniatures for the miniature game and don't want to get stuck with a slew of "unusable" minis... stop buying random packs. Buy singles from a game store, an online store, or eBay. It's the same as it is with any other randomly distributed game. If there...

    Sell me on...

    I think the content itself in XPH is really great. There are some errors in the book, but it's certainly not enough to make it unplayable or unreadable. In fact, I liked it so much that my setting in the works is using only psionics instead of any other kind of magic. To each his own, though. :)

    What color is the iconic dragon?

    I thought "Pseudodragon", but that's just because I finished writing a post in an online game where I play one. After that, I thought "Red" and voted for that.

    Do You Use Your RPG Rules as Written?

    Considering my current setting consists of no magic (just psionics), only one race from the core rulebooks (humans), and an itemless magic item system... I'd have to vote "no" on this. :)

    Do you use or not use specific rules because of fears of munchkinism?

    I can't say that my collection of house rules has anything on it that discourages "munchkinism" or optimizatin or whatever you'd call it. Once my latest game gets under way, I fully intend on encouraging the players to optimize their characters, actually. They're adventurers, the cream of the...
