Ptolus - D&D, AE, or hybrid?

[Arbiter of Wyrms]

Simple enough question:

For those planning on running Ptolus, how many of you expect to use

Dungeons & Dragons rules, as per The Player's Handbook, as the setting assumes
Arcana Evolved rules, as detailed in Monte Cook's Arcana Evolved
a hybridization of the two
?

 

[Angel Tarragon]

Neither. I plan on dropping Ptolus into my homebrew Which is its own unique entity among D20 games.

 

[Angel Tarragon]

Poll needs an 'Other' choice.

 

[DaveMage]

D&D all the way!

(I do not own AE.)

 

[Arbiter of Wyrms]

I purposely avoided the "other choice."

 

[Voadam]

D&D 3.5 rules with no conflicting AE rules used (skill changes, extra feat, feat differences where duplicated, etc.) though some AU elements thrown in (I had a Vladaam noble adversary statted as an unfettered).

I generally use 3.5 rules and throw in individual plug in elements from other d20 games (feats, classes, monsters, etc.).

I'm not actually buying Ptolus, but if I were, it'd be hybrid all the way. One glorious mish-mash...

D&D rules. How do you pronounce Ptolus anyway? Is the P silent?

 

[Vymair]

D&D. I'm buying it since I don't have time for a homebrew. Meddling with the rules would just create work for me so my intent is to go RAW.

Yes, the 'P' is silent.

It is properly pronounced TAW-lus, but commonly pronounced TOE-lus
