So can anyone tell me what the problem is with odd numbered ability increases? or is it ok if I keep them?

I made this custom template way earlier (think I even posted part of it here) but I am getting back into D&D again and would like some feedback before I allow my players to use it : It's really just the standard Half-Dragon Template from the MM but with the following changes: L0: +2 Bonus to...

A psychic warrior actually. Campaign starts off at Level 5 so the PC will be level 3 (+2 LA from the first two levels of the template). I've edited the OP to show the level by level break down of the template. Edit: Forgot about Opposition: Starts off with Cultists & Priests of the...

Well I used the official Half-Fiend Template in the monster manual as a base and it is a +4 LA same as my customised version and a +4 LA can be crippling if taken all at once. As far as the Campaign goes: Simple Version: I am going to use Savage Progression for the template with the whole...

Greetings, I've been convinced to run a game again and need someone to review this Half-Erinyes template for a particular player of mine. I started with the Half-Fiend template and followed the advice in the Specific Fiends page but would like someone to review it. House Ruled Half-Erinyes...

Problem with that in my view is what you said could just as easily be applied to practically any other class. I just do not understand a Martial Class got such an ability. Heck it'd make more sense if a Gish class or prc got such an ability. That being said do you think just giving an Extra...

Looking back at some of my old characters that I intend to ressurect for a new game I was struck by the Swordsage ability to "Sense Magic" (basically identify magic items) at 7th level. Does anyone have any idea as to why the Swordsage has such an ability? It just doesn't make any real sense...

Anyone know what happened to the L5R Design diaries? They seem to be missing or locked for some reason. I have looked at them before but when I checked recently to look something up I got this message:

Some what related but slightly off-topic at the same time: This thread could just as easily apply to Chromatic vs Metallic Dragons. I really dislike the fact that pound for pound the Metallic dragons are generally more powerful then Chromatics. They live longer, better and stronger breath...

Not sure how on topic this is but my group have modded our Sorceress to what we felt the class should have been: My current game's solution for our Sorceress is to gift her with the following: 1) Skills (1): Bump Skill points upto 4+Int (There was actual debate on making this 6+Int to Balance...

Sweet, my Himura Kenshin type character is coming along nicely.

This is a bit off-topic but I don't want to unnecessarily create a new thread unless I have to so: Would Iaijutsu attacks stack with Swordsage Manoeuvres such as (Diamond Mind) Sapphire Nightmare Blade which can make the Opponent flat footed? To clarify, Sapphire nightmare blade requires a...

I've been running this character/template in a game of mine for mine for a while now and thought I'd share it here: It's really just the standard Half-Dragon Template from the MM but with the following changes: LA: +3 (Remains the same) Breath Weapon (1): First change the amount of Damage the...

Had a fun experience in my game group yesterday and I thought I'd share. Apparently my DM was re-reading the Pool of Radiance novel and decided quite randomly that the Ring of Protection that we gave to our sorceress member was also a Ring of X Wishes. (I say X because we don't know how many...

So what do you guys think, I'm a bit nervous as it is my first time creating a WoL. Things I would like Feedback in particular on would be the: Ritual System and The actual abilities Do you think they are balanced? or not? I'm in particular worried about the blurstrike ability. It fits...

Legacy Rituals (Least): To be able to call the powers within the blade, the wielder must meet three conditions: Born in Disgrace: Use the blade to protect someone who is being looked down upon or attacked because of the circumstances of their birth. (This may be the wielder themself or any...

History: LONG READ, Feel Free to skip if wanted. Born in disgrace: DC= 15 Many of the myths and legends regarding this blade have been deemed fairy-tales by Scholars today as have the tales of it wielders. Eons ago, a noble elven warrior mage took his bastard daughter into his house as her...

Hi guys, I am making a new weapon of legacy for my character in a forth coming game and have already sent it off to my GM but would like your opinion as well. Note: I am using a different method to pay for WoL upgrades, involving the sacrifce of gems & or magic items. Feed back on that in...

Hi guys, first time posting here and I have a question: I recently got back into D&D and was interested in having an Intelligent item (a Weapon of Legacy actually but schematics.) but the actual question is can an intelligent item which has Telepathy & Speech etc help with skill checks made by...
