Message: <blockquote data-quote="Feathercircle" data-source="post: 1071934" data-attributes="member: 11266">I'm sorry, but I've never really understood quite what LA exactly the difference between LA and ECL are...  the only rulebooks I own are the 3e DMG, PHB, PsiHB and both Monster Manuals...  and the additional/alternate psionics rules in If Thoughts Could Kill.  I don't exactly have much of a budget, so I don't have much of a book collection...    I'm guessing Level Advancement rules, and the distiction between LA and Effective Character Level are found in something I don't have, probably either Savage Species or one of the Forgotten Realms books or both.Additionally, I didn't factor either of those abilities in because the character in question DOESN"T HAVE THEM.  I thought I'd made that clear in my last post, but I wasn't exactly at my most coherent at the time regardless...   I apologized for that then, and I apologize for it again now.   Moreover, I DO recognize just how powerful a mind blast can be, which is why for my own campaign, I've followed the advice that Bruce Cordell himself gave on Monte Cooke's messageboards and reduced the stun to 1d4...  but that's irrelevant.I was cranky and less coherent than usual at the time of my last post, and I apologize for that.  However, your tone, and the fact that you seem to have not bothered to read my entire post, are making me irritable once again, although I'm trying to not let that hinder me as much as it did before.  Re-read the third-to-last paragraph I posted.  You seem to have skipped over it in constructing your reply.Your entire post was essentially unneccessary, because of one simple fact:I'm not planning on playing in this campaign. I realized while I was constructing my previous post that I'm in no mood and no position to join a campaign using 3.5 rules before I have a chance to peruse them at my leisure.The premise of this campaign, which is what lured me to finally crawl out of my lurkerdom and post, is still intruiging enough for me to follow it on this messageboard, but as I said in my last post and again here, I'm going to be sitting this one out.   I wish you luck there, as well as all the other players, and I hope you'll be more attentive to them than you were to me...I apologize if I"m coming off as hostile, but it's largely in reaction to the antagonism I'm percieving from you.  I'm not always good at interpreting emotion over the internet, so if you weren't intending to be condescending and hostile to me, I sincerely apologize for my misinterpretation.   Either way, since I"m not playing, I'd appreciate it if everyone chooses not to respond to this post, and gets on with the thread and the campain.As a conclusion to this post, I'd like to say that  I hope this campaign goes well for everyone involved, players and DM alike.  Enjoy the horrific Far Realms goodness of it all!  (At least, for as long as you're sane enough to do so!   <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />    )</blockquote>
