For a little more about mission parameters: Something weird has been going on. The mayor of Flamehorn has been calling together the townsfolk nearly on a daily basis, discussing portents of doom. These town meetings are rather odd, not only for the mayor's doom saying, but also for the content of hi...

Here is the template character. I dunno if this is its final form, but it should do for now. If someone wants to be a race that is not available in the base character, that is not a problem. I can easily transfer the relevant information. Additionally, a class that is not one of the base 10 classes ...

I think I am going to create a base character sheet that will be used. You load the "base character", then add your own enhancements.

A little additional information on the new system: Social AC: Much like normal AC, social AC will have different types. Association with an organization can offer you social Armor (as your organization can take the majority of the blow). Special types of characters, like dragonmarked characters or n...

NEW MISSION PARAMETERS Mission Title: Scourge of the Flame Brief description of the Mission: A party of adventurers resides in Flamehorn, a small town in Thrane. The town is a site for pilgrims of the Silver Flame. Because of this, the town's only industry is tourism, controlled with an iron fist b...

Unfortunately, school has taken precedence and I haven't had time to begin this mission. After careful consideration, I have another thought in mind... one that may work really well on the forums. So, I will make another post with that one. This idea is still in the works, and if I have time, I'll p...

I haven't had a chance to make up the appropriate files. I'll work on that this weekend. Please post if you are interested. I'm not looking for completed characters, just looking for interest.

This is simply a PbP idea, not necessarily something that I will participate in. I am simply laying out the foundation so that others can implement it. The idea is that everyone will be a DM at some point during the campaign process, so anyone can technically field this concept if they like it and r...

With some customization, yes. I believe someone else worked on this in the past with success. I don't have the book personally, though, and I don't recall seeing the fruits of the other's labors posted here, so I have no way of verifying this information.

Psionics in Eberron have some story behind them, but I have no issue with psionics. Keep in mind that there is full psionics/magic transparency, and just as all spells that normally take a standard action are taking a full round action, same with powers. This is to actually harm enemy casters more t...

If I have enough players, I'm looking to start this mission as early as Dec. 5 (character files pending). Since there is a lot of customization work for my homebrew rules (designed to minimize long combat and maximize options for individual actions), I'll have class files ready when I return at the ...

Additional House Rules: Unlimited Cantrips/day. Same as Pathfinder Sorcerers and wizards are combined into a single casting class: Hit die: d4 Base Save Bonus: Good Will, Poor Fort and Ref Class Skills: Bluff, Concentration, Craft, Decipher Script, Knowledge (All, taken individually), Profession, an...

For right now, I'm just looking for character concepts. Let me know if you are interested, and what type of character you are thinking of trying.

I really like the setting. There are numerous ways of attaining a large amount of wealth. The easiest way is to be Human, Dragonmarked, and Favored in House. Adding a couple of flaws allows you to start with the appropriate feats. You can be a rogue with a bunch of starting feats and have a ton of w...

Mission information: This mission takes place in Eberron (so Eberron materials are acceptable). The mission starts in a hamlet in Thrane. Thrik was a goblinoid mercenary camp doubling as a detention facility for prisoners of the Last War. The Dungeon of Thrik was simply the holding area for the wors...

NEW MISSION PARAMETERS Mission Title: Recover the Jewel Brief description of the Mission: A rare jewel is hidden somewhere in the dungeon of Thrik. Find it. Rule System to be used: 3.5 with modifications: The core races lose their current ability score adjustments. Instead, all races may choose one...

I haven't really arranged my thoughts on this, so please forgive me if it comes out as a stream of consciousness. I'll update this post to be more concise as I have time. The idea: Groups of four join together. They create two characters each. Each character is gestalt. One character is 4th level, a...

Except that the warblade, as well as the crusader and swordsage, are only proficient with melee weapons (though that includes those that can be thrown). Oh?? Somebody should tell Duniagdra, cause he used his Bow profusely in one Arena match... (without adding penalties to it). I guess that was miss...

For archery, warblade is actually really powerful. A lot of the maneuvers work on ranged attacks, as well as melee ones. Except that the warblade, as well as the crusader and swordsage, are only proficient with melee weapons (though that includes those that can be thrown). Taking one level of Barba...

For archery, warblade is actually really powerful. A lot of the maneuvers work on ranged attacks, as well as melee ones. Other possibilities: For a long ranged archer, you could consider the Cragtop Archer from Races of Stone (you would need to be a Goliath). For an order of the bow initiate from Co...

What setting is it? What style of melee do you like? There's mounted melee, charger builds, gish builds, pounce builds, etc. Depending on how you want to participate in battle will help me give you some interesting ideas for a character with not-the-norm class combos.

That's just it, the racial classes REMOVE the level adjustment from races. Instead, you level up in your race rather than using the racial hit dice + level adjustments. A thri-kreen using the racial class is a +0 level adjustment race. He then may take four levels of Thri-Kreen (a class found in Com...

Oh, I just thought of a few more questions: If a race has a level adjustment, could one take it as a racial class? For instance, the Thri-Kreen in Expanded Psionics Handbook has 2 racial hit dice and a +2 level adjustment, but WotC has created the Racial Class in Complete Psionic (pp 149-151). Since...

And, if you just want to see an accurate conversion, you can always google it. It will give you a pretty accurate conversion before you do anything through Paypal.

If you go through the subscription process, Paypal actually tells you a conversion before you commit to the price.

I would recommend a starting XP value instead of a starting level. This way, players can spend their XP to buy their level, or they can spend it to buy their race and level. If you are using Level Adjustment Buyback rules, this will determine what level they wind up with. A +2 level adjustment can b...

Linda says, Oh! Personnel files! I'm sorry, I misheard you. I get what you were asking now. I am an apothecary who is extremely skilled with magic. No, I don't have any questions. To the others, she says, Perhaps we can take some form of public transportation, like a bus. A private vehicle wastes to...

Linda says with a happy smile, Well, Ms. Elbows, I am Linda Thompson, the well known apothecary. Perhaps I'm a bit slow today, but I don't have any clue what you are talking about. I don't know what a First Ladies' Collection is, so I wouldn't have any questions about it. Also, I don't have any pers...

I'm also interested. I'm currently DMing 4 and playing in 4, so put me on your waiting list in case you need a fill-in player.

I'm probably going to have some more time. I just totaled my car tonight. If you have space for someone who is already in a ton of games (I'll be bottom of the list, of course), I would love to join.
