I know what you mean. One solution might be to have only ONE healing spell. It would be a high-level spell, like 4th or 5th. This healing spell would heal 1d8 times the recipient's level, +1 hp per cleric level. So an injured Fighter of 12th level would heal for 12d8 + something. Hey...

I loved Enchanted. I took my 7-year-old daughter, who was only mildly interested in the movie. I should've taken my wife. It would've been a good "date" movie. The ending took me by surprise--I didn't see it coming. In hindsight, I should've seen it coming. But at the time, whoa. Very...

Shouldn't you be organizing your room? :p

I thought it was funny, like I was skipping the artificiality of insubstantial comments and getting to the actual gist of the post. Oh well. Not my first joke to bomb. Your emoticon and the color of your post has frightened me into compliance. :confused: (Technically, the emoticon above...

Hm. Probably not.

Does quoting myself count?

Sorry, didn't know there were rules to the nonsense.

Playtest? How can you playtest happiness? I hope you don't give My Little Ponies hit points, because My Little Ponies they should never get hurt. And I hope you require the players to use actual My Little Ponies in the game. Here's an adventure idea: My Little Ponies throw a birthday party!

I have finished raising my post count.

I am continuing to raise my post count.

Pff. Like I'd dare step foot outside the house. :p

Sure, those hobbits were 1st level and fragile when they started. However, if they didn't have Strider, Gimli and Gandalf around, they would've died early on. High-level NPC escorts is fine for a book, but if a DM feels obliged to place one or more high-level NPCs into a party to ensure the...

I have no fun DMing levels 1-2. In one round, a party can go from perfectly healthy to facing the prospect of a TPK. From tangling with a pack of dogs. Plus, it's strange to have hit points double from level 1 to level 2. Doubling is huge! One day you have 10 hps, the next day 20? That has...

Uh oh. To-hit penalties, physical APA creatures vs. normal APA types, healing APAs and not healing APAs. Too complicated! Abandon ship! ;)

IMO, the only "tragic" elves are dark elves. Dark elves are inherently cool. Sunlight elves are tragic? I don't see it. Unless you mean paperback-novel elves, not D&D elves. What is tragic about the official D&D elf? That they might live long enough to get bored with dancing in a meadow...

Neat idea, but I have a quibble. Monsters. APA could work for PCs, but they don't seem right for many monsters. For example, what about an animated oak tree? Such a creature would take a lot of damage to defeat , so it would naturally have a lot of APAs. But I just can't see an animated oak...

For the DMs who want the PCs to start-off as pathetic, like yourself, the solution is easy. Use more dangerous monsters and traps. A DM can have his 30hp 1st-level PCs terrified with little effort by tossing a couple extra ogres into a room. I don't see how extra hps will prevent you from...

I hope this is true. As a DM, I hate the fragility of low level PCs. I'm one of those DMs who rolls in the open, meaning there's no fudging of die rolls. Low level PCs die way too easily. Moreover, the kind of monsters a DM can throw at low-hp PCs are pretty lame. Because of this, when a PC...

I like the name "The Rouse", even though it scares me a little. Seriously, if he's The Rouse, what happened to all the other Rouses?
