Adult: Guide to Unlawful Carnal Knowledge

Re: Voice? ovulation control?

Question: this class apparently has psionic abilities, yet the prerequisites don't indicate anything psionic.... oh wait, I just noticed Subdue Cycle is a psionic only feat, nevermind then.

I still haven't worked out how I'm going to deal with psionics; I'l probably work up some oddly-flavoured skill & feat system (instead of using the power point in the Psi HB). I figured that even with the changes I made to standard D&D rules, you could use this for your handbook.

I hope somebody gets some use or inspiration from it, but if not, it was a lot of fun to write up!

Just got the Book of Eldritch Might III.
On Page 21 you will find the Prcise Touch Metamagic-Feat, that has similarities to the feats that once where the Transmitting Feats, i.e. the spell level is lowered by one while you cast an area effect spell as a touch spell.
Makes at least one of these feats redundant or underpowered (the kiss variant, because touching is much easier than kissing)

Hey all

I'm not dead, at least not totally. =)

Don't know if you all have seen this yet, but I found this prestige class on T.Catt's webpage.

http://www.tcatt.com/erotica/WOR3rd-cl.pdf

Its very cool and the art, as always, is top notch.

Have we considered asking T.Catt for art for the book?


I've changed the link to plain text. 'cause when clicked on, it for some reason lead to the main page of a pay site featuring naked women.
But if you cut-n-paste the URL into your browser as text, it works like it should and leads to T. Catt's pdf. Weird...

Oh, well. It's safe now - as much as the rest of this thread, anyway.

yes, asked him. We could get the PrC, but we would have to rework it to fit into the guide.

Asking him to do (or provide) art for the guide is a capital idea.

Already got a ton of approved artwork (the stuff on the site is just a preview, I actually got more on my machine), but go ahead and get more... the more choices, the happier I will be come layout time.

Although, just my $0.02, instead of hunting for more material, how about we concentrate on editing what we have right now and get this version of the guide done. We have been working on it for about a year now (if not longer), set a deadline for new material in June, and we are still not much beyond an edited version of the spells (which probably needs another pass to accomodate revisions in the rules chapters). Any new material coming in could easily be used for web enhancements or a second installment.

 

[Vaxalon]

Good point, Sorn.

 

[kolvar]

Good to hear from you, Sorn.
Do you know of any way, how we could speed up the editing process?

About additional material:
I am not sure, if the stuff, that is at the web enhancement at the moment, will be integrated in the guide. (would be nice).
If this is the case, I would start a new collection with material the 2nd volume of the Guide (maybe we should drop the "Complete" from the title (g))

kolvar, I've been kinda busy at work... so I've only been lurking.

As far as editing goes, I am not too familiar with what exactly the editor is supposed to do. I always saw it as checking for typos, but I guess there is more to it than that.

Even with this lack of knowledge, here is my suggestion:

Since we are all spread across the globe, and various chapters are written (and rewritten and adjusted) by various people, we should probably decide on a "final" version of the rules/content. Once we have e.g. the pregnancy rules confirmed good, someone (and I will volunteer for that) will do a spellcheck and get it ready for layout.

This should be done from the ground up, as later chapters (like spells), will be dependant on the base sex rules we establish early chapters.

So, we need to get the basic rules chapter banged out, and set it in stone. This would mean skills, feats, and, along with the Prowess skill, the sex tricks. Once this is done, we can't change it significantly, or we will have to revise the following chapters.

After we have the basics done, different people can tackle the other chapters, making sure that any rules-references to chapters other than the basic rules are still valid and have not been changed. A lot of the chapters should be self-sufficient. I can't really see the Monster section drawing too much from the PrC's or the Magic Items. Spells will need to be done fairly late in the game, as they have the broadest reach (after the basic rules).

I think if everybody chips in and does one section, we can get this done fairly quick.

And after that, I will spellcheck and layout the whole thing.

Anyway, just my $0.02.

I am all with you. Our main problem was from the start, that we always did the spells first, than the rules.

Leaves the question: when will the rules be edited?
