[QUOTE="Samothdm, post: 829444, member: 5473"] I also have really enjoyed BOTR and am using it as a "template" to flesh out the religions IMC. As far as other GR stuff, I have the Shaman's, Witch's, and Assassin's Handbooks. I really enjoyed the first two quite a bit. The Assassin one was okay, but for some reason didn't really "do it" for me like Shaman's and Witch's. I think part of the reason was that the Assassin book went into a lot of detail (IIRC, over half the book) on two main organizations of Assassins that really don't work in my world. The idea behind them is that as a DM you shouldn't really add Assassins to a world without having an organization for them to belong to. All fine and dandy, but I would've preferred a more modular approach of how to design an assassin organization from the ground up rather than a lot of stuff on two groups that I don't plan to use. I also have Hammer & Helm (a great book - one of the few race books that I've actually decided to purchase) and Arcana: Societies of Magic, which was one of my first D20 purchases. I think that's a great, and often overlooked, book of Magic-oriented PrCs and secret societies. Also picked up the "Freeport: City of Adventure" book which is a fun read, although I haven't technically used anything from it IMC yet. To get back to the subject of BOTR, I asked this in House Rules about two weeks ago and only got one response. Have any of you all created any new Holy Warrior Domains? If so, care to share? I'd also be interested in a set of guidelines for making new, balanced Holy Warrior domains. [/QUOTE]
