You know what makes D20 great?

I am bitterly reminded of my teenage days when we thought it was cool to go to the convenience store and mix every type of soda there...

And now that you're older and wiser, you can go to the bar and mix every kind of drink there... ;)

This is the kind of wigged-out craziness I approve of. While it's not suited to my current world, other settings would lap it up.

So my homebrew system allows you to play a character who resembles a ghost tree with laser blasters. This sorta thing isn't too exceptional in my head.
 


A little tip, never send a paladin into a situation in which Cthulu might be involved. Automatically detecting evil in a scenario like that is like opening up the faucets of sanity and knocking off the valve.

I did once have a friend who's DM ran a strange campaign in which they hopped from setting to setting rolling up new characters and running through most of a normal scenario after each hop.

Inevitably, however, they would run into Cthulu, remember that they had run into Cthulu before, attempt some desperate action, and then be forced to setting hop again.

I believe the scenario would play out a little something like this:

DM:"You walk into the Leanin' Corral bar. Everything appears to be normal."

"I ask the bartender for a beer."

DM: "The Bartender turns around, it's CTHULU!!!"

"'Aaaahhhh!' I draw my pistol!"

DM: "Too late, your world is DOOMED!!!"

This went on until they played Rifts. By that point they were prepared and when they spotted Cthulu slithering through a canyon within Rifts Japan things went a little bit differently....

....Let's just say that with enough Samas powerarmor, Glitterboy battlesuits, full conversion Dragon borgs, and demon hunters the Mountains of Madness can become even more so.

BRING IT ON!!! In fact, come down to Jersey and run that game for me, Angcuru, RakeRon, and Vechs, and just let us Gen characters. It'll be a tossup which one I use, that or Mr. Hahn.

Hey, where in Jersey are you from?

So the nice thing about d20 is that with 4-6 books you can do what I can do with one book, Hero 5th Ed, now? Wow...;)

Oh, I wouldn't sweat it. I think the creeping HEROization of D&D, as seen in the ELH and Savage Species, cannot be stopped and will reach its logical conclusion in D&D 4E, aka HERO 6E.
