That's a pretty shittastic view to take. Sure, trying to argue about what an anime character's jump modifier is based on how far they jump in some scene or what their strength score is based on things they lift is totally clownshoes. It's even dumber to do the Elminster (HA! On topic!) thing and cre...

It must be interesting having to deal with the fact that the poor wizard is then stuck never being able to reproduce that feat. And that nobody else in the game can replicate his unique magical powers. Nothing about what I just said prevents the wizard from casting fireball and then casting firebal...

Guts fought a Huge Dragon apostle to a standstill by his lonesome, that's basically the definition of a level ~15 character. Slan is an epic-level demon queen, the reason Guts is still alive after encountering her is because his impotent raging trying to kill her amuses her to the point of orgasm. T...

The physical rules governing the creation of the Mona Lisa are well understood. They're so well understood that painting something approximating the Mona Lisa is something that can be done by anyone with the right instruction and the right tools (which, again, are easily reproduced). But it's not g...

You know, I've been trying to come up with my own campaign setting recently but I've been having trouble with it. I really want to port over Dragonlance's 'the world is slowly going to hell and there is little we can do' tone. That's pretty much what saved the comic for me. However, Krynn is a stup...

So something very much like magic but which could, with sufficient education, be practiced by anyone wouldn't be magic? Yes, I'm saying exactly that. I think the best analogy to the real world is artistic ability. Anyone can go to art school and learn perspective, color theory, and anatomy. But art...

One of my characters carried around a chunk (specifically the face) of an animated statue that was a total bitch to fight at level 1. It seriously just hung from his belt via a little webbing pouch for ages until he threw it at the BBEG during a fight just because he was totally pissed at the dude (...

So you're really just talking about players crafting wondrous items through taxidermy? That's seriously an entirely different thing than what happens in megaman-land where fighting a giant lets you grab rock hurling or some shits. That's seriously not even a class ability, that's maybe a magic item ...

Question: How can you take 20 on spot/listen? Are you just talking about see through the disguise/hear the plot clue in the dungeon? Magic eye paintings. You can take 20 to see the sail boats or whatever. Or trying to see some far away, barely visible, but basically stationary object, like ships on...

Fair enough. Give an example where 'take 20' comes up (a completely worked out situation), and there's absolutely no way to improve the encounter/incident/activity/whatever so that 'take 20' couldn't have come up in the first place. The Rogue has broken into the evil Duke's study with the task of a...
