I'm doing something like this in a current game. I've divided items into three groups. 1) Bonded Items. Weapon, implement, armor, neck. Players choose an item per character per slot. These items automatically level with the character (item level = character level). 2) Group Sets. We keep five...

I had a DM who pulled puzzles and riddles on us once a session. Seriously, it was like a checklist: every session was one combat, one puzzle. He was actually a pretty good GM, but when the puzzle hit the table, the game just stopped. Like hitting a brick wall. He refused to allow us to advance...

I also just realized that my thought of 'let the monster finish their move next to me, then push them away' doesn't work. Well, it works, but I'll suck an opportunity... ... ...wait, you can't take an opportunity action on your own turn. So it does work. Grr! This D&D thing is hard!

It might be good, too, for people who answer the 'Movement interrupt' question to also quickly mention where they stand on the 'Cancel an attack in progress' question.

Sorry, I should have been more clear. I'm still talking about the free action of Forceful Push.

I don't care about invalidating attacks - here's my move-based scenario. An enemy is coming towards me. After two squares, I interrupt his movement to slide him one square adjacent to my fighter buddy. Legal?

I realize this is some thread necromancy, but I just discovered the Encounter Manager! I've looked at a lot of stuff online, and this is the only thing I've found that really works for 4E - allowing you to specify effects ending at start/end of turn, and then giving a warning when they come up...

"You'll do fine, then. It sounds like you're more comfortable with yourself than most of the humans I meet. Do you want a drink?"

Minkahar appears surprised to hear that he's been speaking telepathically again. "I'm sorry, I forget that other people have to do that sometimes. It's just...agh, don't you just get frustrated with how it slows you down?" The thought of frustration leaks out into the room, and Minkahar...

It's all projected as if he's speaking out loud. It'll be clear if there's directed telepathy going on.

Easily distracted by the new conversation thread, Minkahar latches onto it...forgetting again that people use their lips to talk. It makes sense. Susan, tell me if I've got this right. You ARE Unit 16. But you would like us to call you Susan. He explains to Ryda, sounding as if he were reading...

Are you looking for judges, or everyone? I agree entirely - yes on debut, no on playtest. At least for Living stuff.

"You're Susan?" He addresses Unit 16 without surprise, but licks his lips nervously as he tries to pick out words that won't offend. "I'm sorry to manhandle you on the way in...ma'am." "And I..." he pauses, glancing around at the patrons and decorations of the Tower's Shard. A thought slips: An...

Minkahar takes a tumbler of rotgut from Brews, seemingly calmer as soon as he has the beverage in hand. He acknowledges Ryda's comment with a startlingly clear and direct gaze. "Say, I've heard of that! It is a good trick, a great time-saver. Now I have the measure of you without even the need...

It's a popular, well-known tavern; I think it's safe to assume that Brews has more business than two adventurers over the course of two weeks. (Or else our next adventure should really be dragging Brews to get a business education!) Still, good call on grabbing the drink off Ryda's table - gets...

"No!" he cries aloud. "Yes! Maybe!" Warforged armored Cannith swordborn. Cannith run? Cannith fly? Tie a rope and climb the sky. He straightens his back, extending a hand to Ryda, but staring, glassy-eyed, past her. His projected fear congeals into a vague static of uneasiness. "Hello! We're not...

I'm cleared enough to bring in Minkahar. For the moment, his class is up in the air a bit; once a GM and a game actually get started for him, he'll end up as a Warlord or Ardent. It's under control. A crashing counterpoint to their quiet conversation, the door to the Tower's Shard smashes open...

Well, I'm the aforementioned bfiggins. Minkahar's origins are pretty simple: I got excited about LEB, opened up the character builder, and looked through my options, looking for something new I haven't tried yet. "Hmm, Kalashtar. They're big in Eberron, aren't they? Let's see what class works...

Aw shucks! I'll admit to being frustrated - I always seem to miss some buried detail when I try to get into something new. That being said, it's really not that bad. I'm talking to a GM about maybe playing and just not being officially approved until the PHB3 is in play...or there's also the...

I'm a Leader! I was waiting for approval before jumping into the tavern, but I've got a Kalashtar Ardent ready to go. I'll bring him in here in a little while.
