[QUOTE="GMMichael, post: 8067642, member: 6685730"] Class kits are a pre-evolution feature, but they were fun and crunchy. As I recall, if you'd meet a role-playing element and had the requirements, your character would pick up a minor fluff and mechanical feature or two without needing additional XP for them. Endless possibilities, there. Ah. Well, that would definitely count as crunchy. Here's the thing: it's 2020. Games can use more tables. It should take seconds to type into a (pdf?) search: "climbing table." There could literally be a different table for every skill, and it wouldn't increase page-turning because page-turning is a thing of the past. The 3e monster templates system made perfect sense to me. I don't see a lot of reasons to create NPCs with a different system than the one for PCs. Monster Generator would be a good Level Up feature. Fixed for courtesy and thread-focus. I'd like to recommend Complete Arcane and Tome of Battle for further reading/study. [/QUOTE]
