Having to take Improved Unarmed Strike as a prerequisite for Improved Grapple. Many styles of combat do not have striking. Wrestling, Judo, Aikido and others.

Killing is rarely evil. We kill to eat, we kill to defend ourselves, we kill to stop someone from hurting, killing or destroying something and we kill in war ie Joan of Arc. It's only when killing is for fun, profit or malice that it becomes evil. James bond is a hero. So too Indiana Jones.

On the Other hand, Jade Regent. The 7 Dwarves go to China ;)

Kingmaker Adventure Path and Reign of Winter Adventure Path are my picks.

We could learn allot from various game developers from around the world. But no anime in the graphics! Anime might have good stories but the artwork is garbage. I want my human to have a normal nose and normal sized eyes. Oh, and hair that looks like hair.

Has anybody played http://www.nexon.net/landing/mabinogi/?PARTNERKEY=MK034SVG0121573

It is quite a vast Online Fantasy RPG. Perhaps the tech people should take a look at what they are doing.

Some monsters would be PC level normal, like Kobolds and Goblins. They would not be any different than playing any other PC race.

Echo wood sounds good in and of it'self :)

I have been in Midgard, Journeys to the West (Midgard's ocean exploration project) and now Tales of Midgard or Mythology Anthology :) Lots of fun and great learning for anybody who wants to learn to write stories, write gaming adventures for your friends and for people who want to buy :) and just for self improvement :) Or just for fun :) I have learned allot of things about self, gaming, writing and mythology :)

Taldor is very British, and French, and Spanish, and Byzantium... But I look at Prince Stavian and damn he reminds me of those early tellings of Robin Hood- the sniveling, scheming Prince John.

They never really made the nations based on any one particular place. You can see allusions to Moorish Spain, France during the Revolution, France after the Revolution if the Royals won, Britain, America, Russia, Norse, and various other places... and yet they are not really these places but amalgams of these places in each place.

I never liked the city god of civilization having paladins myself, and Irori seems to be to monastic to have horse and armour types. But if you model your paladin after a whirling dervish... A stealthy holy warrior with a pair of scimitars in monks robes... Lawful Good wandering the land... hmm no that's more like Sarenrae... Take away the scimitars and give him a staff but keep the monks robes... Yeah. A Sohei bent on the thwarting of evil in the land... Kind of like having a Paladin Rogue, sneaking around the castle keeping out the demons and such that may be sneaking in :)

How do you plan to handle healing for the warforged?

Are you just going to use half healing like the campaign book says?

Yes, I am keeping living construct the same. That is why I just put te page number in ECS. Plan to use the craft skill too, but that is another chapter

They have rules for constructs now, and for healing in Pathfinder.

Halfling from the Lavik lands of Ustalav. And as such is very Lavik in traditions and beliefs. On one side
of the Lavik traditional folk beliefs are the Varisians and the other are the Skalds with lots of Kellid mixed
in. The other great groups of Lavik peoples are Issia, Rossland and Brevoy.
They follow the old folk beliefs of the Green Faith, fears Baba Yaga, and live in a little sod hut that has
grass growing off the sides and roof and would be invisible in the trees except for the windows, door,
chimney and the fence around with things in the yard. Living in the forest has many advantages for the
Lavik halflings, from the taiga forests and waterways to the mountains of Ustalav, they hunt, fish, and sail
the rivers and lakes and live under the great tree roots or in halfling holes, small wooden houses or sod
huts. Life is hard but good.
Especially for a Midwife and healer.
Her gear is mostly at her house.

No arguments her :) Stat blocks for ease of play, I'm using HeroLab, you can use which ever. Use which point system, or pick yer own, etc. Any level, etc. Doing them up for Golarion :)

You can use Generic, homebrew etc. as long as it's Pathfinder on this one and again lets not argue about stats or levels or whatever. Friendly is fine, it's for fun and learning and we can use them :)

The Shannara series is magic that is the way society thinks it is, after a fashion. And it's not modern.

Neil Gaimans "American Gods" novel is a good one :) and the follow up "Anansi Boys" :)

Have you ever grappled a cat? I would assume they get automatic hit on both claws unless you can catch them flat footed...

You will be missed Daydream Believer...

+1

Pathfinder has a book out that is NPCs from all over Golarion and Hero Lab has a bunch of generics as well. However there should be something of a book of NPCs of what you speak. You could do a cleaves. In fact if you do a thread called the Cleaves NPCs you will have everybody in the message boards writing NPCs for you... Or at least feeding you ideas :)

Actually if Jeff would work with Paizo to do the Psionics.... That would be awesome :)

We could even call them Psychics and Jeff could work with Paizo to create
the classes.

I run Pathfinder's material because they are well done and fun. I like their world as well. This is the first world I set my adventures in and not a homebrew as I like the setting.

"Do Warforged Dream of Quori Sheep?" LMAO :) Blade Runner :)

- Sitting around the fire... "Its my new Cleric spell.." "Create Food and Waiter"

And they should have done a sequel to the Incredibles. A tv show alone would have gone like Ducktales or Talespin ie franchise into the millions...

Condorman! They really should have done a sequel!

I always thought having one players guide with all the playable races in it... elves, centaurs, brownies, dwarves, fauns, orcs, grigs, ogres, etc. And all the available classes...

And the Varisia Campaign Setting!

No I haven't read every post ;)

I like Pathfinder over all. Love the fact that they saved us when 3.5 was canned. Don't like the way improved grapple needs improved unarmed strike as a prerequisite. You should be able to have that one on its own i.e. wrestling, judo etc. Also there should be improved unarmed strike greater. Oh well. I wish they would have updated the Psionics Rules to Pathfinder but Dreamscarred Press did- so it doesn't matter. I wish they had put out their 3.5 stuff in Pathfinder rules. Over all its great fun.

Right - Curse of the Crimson Throne and Second Darkness Pathfinder Adventure Paths ;)

Couple of ideas: pick up the Kingmaker set and read through it. Use the ideas in that for kingdom building. Also there is something about keeping up a keep in the ROTRL magazines that details all you need to know to keep your little castle going. You are going to run fort Rannik for a while and you could Kingdom Build right there... Trade between Korvosa, Magnimar, and Riddleport (the Freeport of Pirates and ner'dowells) can make you rich. There is also the Dwarven City and the city of Kaer Maga at the stairs of the Stoval Plateau that are both major players in the area and lots of small towns that belong to one city or the other... Like the lycanthropic town of wolf ear...

Get the next couple of sets of Pathfinder Adventures as well - the Korvosa one and the Riddleport one. Korvosa covers the Varisians and their Scarni thieving bad side as well as rogues and merchants in that city. And the Riddleport one has some great contacts in the rogues and merchants in that city as well.

Varisia has gnomes and near where Dosgamer suggested there is a couple of places where gnomes reside... All are very unclaimed and ripe for claiming :)

Bloodsword Vale is well defined and so is Sandpoint in Varisia :) Both have adventures planned around them that detail the area quite well and give lots of NPC's...

What is the Filter that people speak of anyway, I am missing something there...

+1 to what Set says too :)

+1 Luminiere Solas, you hit it right on. I never felt that Psi was science fiction. I always saw it as fantasy oriented and played psionics since first edition. Sometimes I use psi in my campaigns and sometimes I don't, but Psi is always available to my players. I don't use transparency, and I love Dreamscarred Press for them Pathfinderizing 3.5 Psi.

By the nature of the word Paladin, you have Lawful Good. Use the word Holey Warrior and have any alignment you like. A Paladin is a Lawful Good Holey Warrior. You want Lawful Neutral you have a Justicar, Chaotic Evil and you have Anti Paladin which could be better named Knight Aberrant or some such.

"Boggart" was first used in popular English literature: sometime before 1863

In British folklore, a boggart (or bogart, bogan, bogle or boggle) is a household spirit/faerie which causes things to disappear, milk to sour, and dogs to go lame. Always malevolent, the boggart will follow its family wherever they flee. In Northern England, at least, there was the belief that the boggart should never be named, for when the boggart was given a name, it would not be reasoned with or persuaded and become uncontrollable and destructive.

It is said that the boggart crawls into people's beds at night and puts a clammy hand on their faces. Sometimes he strips the bedsheets off them. Sometimes a boggart will also pull on a person's ears. Hanging a horseshoe on the door of a house is said to keep a boggart away.

In the folklore of North-West England, boggarts live under bridges on dangerous sharp bends on roads, and it is considered bad luck for drivers not to offer their polite greetings as they cross.

Since Kobolds tend to be Lawful, I made a special Temple of Lawful Evil and Lawful Neutral Kobold- Monks, Monk/Fighters, Monk/Rogues and Monk/Rangers and gave the higher level ones levels of Assassin. These were the special groups that went out and fixed certain problems...

You can even have Clerics who become Assassins...
