"Astral Weapon of ..." evokes images of the Planar Champion from the 3.0 MotP (with awesome illustration). #1 all-time favorite prestige class.

Here's hoping!

And I realize we're down playing alignment but should assasin really be one of a mere dozen character options in the first PHB? Talk about drifting from the games heroic roots....

The AD&D Player's Handbook would like a word with you.

*shrug* The Assasin class was evil only if I recall correctly. There was no ambiguity about the heroism of murder.

Prince of Knaves? Isn't that about like "Lord of Scum?" "Thug Boss" maybe?

Godfather?

Only, if he were to dabble in the dark arts, would he be Don Voldemort?

... so what you really meant was, "drifting from the game's heroic roots except when they weren't heroic"?

DM: The shadow demon begins to laugh as he calls upon his his spectral panthers to attack.

BC: "Iron Vanguard your motivation is running low, shall I pin your opponent?"
IV: "Yes, Battle Captain, pin them now so they will not move and thus you will grant me a bonus to attack. Spellstorm Mage , what do you plan to do?"
SsM: "I shall shoot them with my 11th level spell of flaming wrath then I will shift behind Astral Weapon."
AW: "By the powers of love, beauty, strength and justice! I shall Heal the Iron Vanguard's motivation to fight by granting him a healing surge! You do not have to fear being brought down to negative hit points this round, for evil shall not prevail!"

My god... 4e is becoming anime....

I dont know about you, but my group refers to each other's characters by their character's name or occasionally the player's name.

How'd your first edition games go?

"Come here Fightermagethief, I, Fighterclericmage will heal you! Fighter, you sit in the back and leach exp!"

Sounds like a group problem if you all cant remember each other's names...

"As the leader of all illegal activities in Casablanca, I am an influential and respected man."

It's been far too long since someone busted out a Casablanca quote.

Well played, my man. Well played.

Hah, 1st Ed., where you got a new title EVERY level!
"Hi, I'm Frank the Veteran"
After a day or two of adventure...
"Call me Frank the Swordsman today"
Another week passes...
"I'm not a Swordsman anymore, now I'm Frank the Hero!"

I guess the names were better...but the application is not to be missed.

A day or two? Another week? You guys leveled really quickly in 1e
