If you reduce the number of qualities that a person has to pick out RIGHT NOW in order to establish their character to a number that you can count off your hands, you reduce drastically the amount of chargen time. For instance, the best example would be between 3e and 4e. I will not champion 4e as a...

White Wolf at least admits it makes terribly balanced games, justifying it simply by saying it is not interested in making balanced games... that is, that those are basically for chumps. So they do manage to pan out interesting hooks and concepts, but not so much on the mechanical rigor, and that's ...

I was only thinking combining weapons to make super guns or combining construct companions to make megazords. If that's dumb though, yeah, I can figure. Anything you WOULD add? It'd be way more awesome if being Red Ranger meant that you can toss out team colors to the rest of your allies, with no e...

I don't think referring to the universe (or the world) as a creation, in and of itself, is a bad thing, unless you believe that the universe had no definite beginning, i.e. that the Big Bang did not happen. We don't really have a problem with saying even inanimate objects can create certain things, ...

It is actually pretty well-known that cielingcat's claim regarding doing nothing is not actually that outlandish, although it is a false absolute. To be precise, as time goes by, people who experience gender dysphoria generally feel worse and worse, resulting in a mounting desire to transition. This...

The problem is that I already used the stats written in the adventure against the party, and it would be 'slightly' noticeable when they got their rematch against the same vampires and didn't have to face shapeshifting, swarm-summoning, dominating, fast-healing, and damage reduction. So, a vampire ...

Laurell K. Hamilton writes two series, from my understanding, Merry Gentry and Anita Blake. They're both basically the same thing (girl surrounded by harem of men she fucks, gets powerups from sex, no seriously). But one doesn't really involve vampires at all since it's about a faerie princess (who ...

It seems the most sensible kind of floating rock has an inherent tendency to push away from the earth which increases on either a geometric or exponential principle the more of it you get together (and thus cause their repulsion fields to overlap and combine, the bottom of which presumably touches s...

SR4 Spirits are too powerful. There will be a series of limits put on them. I would be fairly surprised if they don't have their skills cut in half. I would also expect them to have their mental stats decoupled from Force, for fairly obvious reasons. What other limits would you suggest being placed...

This is a kind of non-question. You haven't set your design goals. Do you want to make all the races balanced with each other, or do you want to make them balanced with the original 3e races? It's not hard to rewrite all the 3e races you want to use to have more interesting stuff in them. What do yo...

This post bugs me because you get all your history wrong. Alignments were not made by WotC, and originally the only alignments were Law and Chaos, with Law being more Good and Chaos being more Evil in a general sense. Good and Evil were only imported, and naturally they confuse the system, because L...

Any number of dice that you can fit in the palm of your hand and roll easily, be it 1 or 5, is not a problem. So there's no real significant difference in terms of encumbrance between 1d20 and 3d6. There is between pretty much anything else and 20d4. Myself, I prefer 2d10, if only because the curve ...

The upshot of all this is a system where people don't like taking on too many opponents at once (Chi Aura and kung fu techniques start running out), where people are encouraged to diversify (to use several, not just one Chi type, and also have similar kung fu techniques available so they can always ...

Huh. I had thought that the point of all that chi accounting crap was to make it so that encounters could have lasting relevance without being deadly. If they don't actually do that, what is the point? -Username17 They're Magic colors, like he stated, but also NIN forgot the Jade healing limitation...
