Ah, one question I stumbled over recently, when looking at Latalya's character sheet...

How do you do equipment (weapons in particular) resizing and Alter Self / Polymorph?

IIRC the Rules of the Game article says, that they change accordingly (much like with Enlarge Person), while there is no mentioning in the rules (only Enlarge Person says so) and there is the sizing weapon enchantment in Complete Adventurer, which mentions, that it's cool for spellcasters who tend to polymorph themselves (which, however, is taken word by word from the 3.0 version, so that doesn't say much, as usual).

Anyways... how are we going to do this? Do weapons resize or not? And what about worn equipment?

My reading in 3.5 has always been clothing and jewellery resize, armor will fit someone of the same size category (dwarf and gnoll are both Medium, no problem, but dwarf and gnome are Medium and Small respectively, so Altering Self from one to the other will cause armor to merge), and weapons retain their size category.

But as you note, RotG differs.

As often ... okay, as very often happens in PbP games we have lost one of our players. Specifically, it was the player portraying Anastasia Winterheart of Sterich, Valiant of Mayaheine, Shield of the Faithful (Human f Ftr2/Pal6/Cav6).

Is there anyone who would be willing to fill her well-armored shoes? I would like to keep her as a character, only because everyone has spent a lot of time integrating her into the group and the campaign in general. Anyone want to play a melee-heavy female paladin-type? She kicks butt, plus Mayaheine is a cool, up-and-coming goddess. What could be better than that? ;)

Preference will be given to khavren, Ferrix, Manzanita, and sophist, as they were the original alternates for this game, but if none of them are interested it's first come, first serve.

Oh, if you want to change some of her feats, equipment, or skills around, that would be fine with me, as long as her basic personality/outlook/background stays the same.

If you're curious about what kind of a game I run, feel free to read up on them through the links in my sig below.

I'll throw in the gauntlet so to speak if one of the designated alternates doesn't show.

Yep, that's how we play it in our PnP games, but everyone has different views on this matter, so I thought I'd ask BO before assuming how it works here. ;)

I've reread the descriptions of the Alter Self and the Polymorph spells and I agree with Mr. Smurf. Weapons will not resize. If the new form is capable of wearing or holding the item it will not meld and remain functional.

Hmmm,
I looked at it. I am not adverse to playing women, but paladins: and then a lot of wasted potential on the cavalier class. :\

You found someone interesed anyways.

Thanks for checking in and considering it, sophist.

Here's a question for everyone else: what do you think is the chance of Seeten every coming back? If there is a chance, even if it's a small one, it might be better to let someone to just create a new character. That way they would probably be more into the game.

Then again, we might not even need another person! :) Hmmm ...
 

It's been a while... I can't remember how much information we have about where we're going, down here!

Do we know anything that would help us choose between south and not-south?
