Because people's lives depend on these rules.

1168832873[/unixtime]]Now, the "Runic" ability actually says 5 feet per level. This still sucks, but can't be nullified by a single five foot step. [br][br]I noticed that, but was looking at the class at level 1. What can this rune knight do fresh out of the box? Get overshadowed by the m...

I came across a class that I wanted to use in my next campaign and I want you to look at it to see what needs to be done to improve it. [br][br]Set it on fire.[br][br] Runic (Su): ...Activating runic is a move action that provokes an attack of opportunity and lasts until the rune knight either succ...

You can do that, WaeseL, but you lose the shield bonus if you use the weapon in your off hand. IBD lets you keep it.

Now, trained killers have a use. [br][br]That's all I was trying to say.[br][br] But that's not an every day thing. Most of the time we don't need soldiers at all - we need police. People to do investigations, people to direct traffic, people show a commitment by our government into the continued f...

Our 9th level party cut through a wall in Tome of Horrors and found this fucker hiding behind the wall. The monk and paladin died from stupidity before I could get line of effect and bypass him with grease , Kyle's Green Tentacles , and DM pity.[br][br]MUTANT FOUR-ARMED GARGOYLE CR 11[br]CE Large hu...

Yet the Army keeps hiring. Perhaps they know something you don't?

*nods* Yup, that's what they pay us for.

I figured he meant the character played baby football.

It is. Green juicy goodness.

I could say it's because the Search function works so well, but really all I did was look at all 40 pages in the IMHO forum. If you mean how did I know about it, josephbt, it's because I read it when Oberoni first posted it.

I had some success using standard battlefield-control spells, modifying only the description. Setting up a forcefield parallel to the floor results in a surface no less slippery than grease , surely a color spray could be in shades of green, and the three magic words for handling a closet troll are ...

If you jump out off a skyscraper, you will die. You will splatter on the ground and your existence as you know it will end, so for the love of Geese Howard, don't do it. [br][br] If you sin-- and trust me, you have-- you will die. You will be found not worthy to enter into God's sight, and will be ...

I was complaining about Shadowrun and D&D because the subtext is that you're playing a group of psychopaths who steal and murder in the name of a greater good (or sometimes personal greed). [br][br]You haven't seen psychopathy until you've played Werewolf the Apocalypse. [br][br]The good guys a...

The setup is that there's a mage girl, a werewolf, a vampire, and a robot girl. They all live together in a treehouse and have angsty adventures. [br][br]Holy crap, I've got to find an episode of that.[br][br] Seriously. If one of you guys called me up and said "Hey Arioch, we have Drew Barrym...

Sailor Mercury has a better outfit, and is a battlefield control specialist.

Yes. Werewolves rocked. So did the Akashic Brotherhood. Unfortunately, that was in the old World of Darkness.

Not breaking the game... hmm. I haven't opened a NWoD book yet, but I bet rpg.net has plenty of threads on how to make characters who suck, if that would help.

Yeah, I seem to remember that. I thought they issued picture ID cards for free, though. It's been a while.

"I've encountered hundreds of students," he reports, "and I don't know a single one who has decided to get a state ID." [br]So they don't issue driver's licenses in Arizona? What an amazing thing. [br][br]Back when I was in high school, almost nobody came to school on their 16th...

The hardness Frank's referring to isn't inherent to the body, it's the result of the reinforce spell.

At least, that's what I'm getting from the context.

Now that you mention it, those are pretty much the same advantages my dwarf ninja had in the all-elf party. Thanks for clearing that up.

A Hobgoblin [anything] is a viable character, but if you want your mouth to taste like velveeta you'd make your Rogue a Deep Halfling, you'd make your Wizard a Gray Elf, and you'd make your Fighter a Dwarf.

What advantages do deep halfling rogues offer over the basic halfling?

The E and I are transposed in the fiendish feats and spheres hyperlinks under Other Character Choices.

Dammit Frank! That line had me spray cereal all over my desk.

A lance is driven by the momentum of a charging mount as opposed to someone's actual muscle which means it is fundamentally different than a sword. Certain feats that are muscle powered, like power attack and even strength bonuses, make little sense when applies to a lance charge. [br][br]http://ww...

So tell me, are lawful good characters allowed to knowingly ally with evil to defeat a greater evil? Tell me, if you follow the code of your order (which is against the law of the land) to the letter are you lawful or chaotic? Is killing orcs evil or good? What about orc children?
