Question about Frank
Is our Frank Trollman the same guy referenced as a founder of the Handelman school of magic?

What is a flask rogue?
I've heard the term tossed around, but have no idea what it could actually mean, aside from "a rogue who primarily attacks through throwing flasks of acid", with the hint that you apply Sneak Attack damage to the attacks. Is that right? If so, would someone explain to me: 1. a. How a low-l...

Anyone playing a tome game?
One that I could join? I was thinking it'd be fun to blow off some steam playing a Conduit.

Thanks for posting, these were fun to read. One thing tripped me up though: So, we are approached by Pablo Escobar, who tells us that the invaders are apparently setting fire to the mill, which is full of a very valuable white powder. The wizard questioned how somebody is having trouble setting a mi...

Modifiers are bigger than scores, thats kind of nice, as I'm for going away from 3-18 and moving to -5 to 4. Are we looking at the same sheet? Because I see 16 Str and a +3 mod (+5 after class/whatever bonus). After your sentence I was hoping to see 8 Str and +16 mod or something, which would be ni...

Roll a d20. 1-19 the creature is a bit stronger- multiplies its own HD by 1d4+1 and rerolls to get extra powers using that HD. And then of course it commences the killing rampage. Sure, getting 5x HD might be bad, but as things go... I'll take it. On a 20 roll however. Um. Well time to quote block ...

In general: I like the melee debuffer approach. The D10 HD is nice. Why base everything off Charisma? I always felt that was a terrible decision by Wizards because it forces MAD. Lesser Curses: What's the purpose of Ailing? It's outclassed by Malady in combat and stealth, and Torment everywhere exce...

One of the things I came away with from this was not just that aspect X or Y was broken in 3.x, but moreso that there is a threshold that every RPG will reach where past that point you have enough options that completely broken builds and power loops and shit become inevitable. That's funny, becaus...

Did Frank & K create The Wish and The Word?
If you aren't familiar, the build is here: http://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/The_Wish_a ... r_Build%29
I just realized this would be a good place to ask the question. I've read it might've been Frank here, but no one was sure about it.

Tome full-attacks: wtf?
Just to double-check, I opened the Tomes and found full attacks listed under full-round actions. Why that changed to a standard action? Is this a house rule that not enough people use? Just to review why this matters: -At 6th level a sorcerer can cast his newest trick (3rd level spells) as a standar...

That wording for Step Into Darkness looks good, and I've added it with minor editing to sound more like the rogue's other abilities. So while you probably can't deal with any possible wizard at 15, you have a few viable builds to deal with (or successfully flee from) quite a lot of them. Thanks for ...

Can this work for any kind of game story? To prevent this becoming a cooperative (read: boring) storytelling event, I imagine there would have to be some sort of competition, eg. the person who strikes the finishing blow on the dragon gets a trophy that also grants a wish or something, and that woul...
