Like what? For example, there was the problem that no one wanted to play clerics because they were simple healbots. 3e has a partial solution with the idea of domain spells where the cleric couldn't be forced to memorize 100% cure spells and let clerics convert regular spells into cure spells, mean...

I would have put the Jotuns at CR3-4, Thor's Friends at level 6-7, and Thor himself at 10th/11th or so. Mjolnir is a (cursed)Hammer of Titan Strength, with some funky side abilities. Jotuns are at minimum CR7 if you use the Hill Giant for the template. CR 9 if you use the frost giant. Jotuns are ph...

Magic Gift Item synergy

I totally haven't read all of this thread or all of the "Fighters don't get nice things" thread, but I'll toss this idea out. Say that every hero has powers which come from something, and that the "something" from which they get their powers can totally be taken away. The Green L...

Concept: Character Sheet Layers

I think the name got nabbed from a Kaelik comment somewhere. Anyhow, this is about the idea that characters should escalate from fighting small packs of wolves to stabbing entire armies, and that the scaling shouldn't be annoyingly abrupt. Hence, the idea of character sheet layers. There would be, s...

Not a problem with that.

Comment: the Celestian is only 4 levels long, instead of what I assumed would be 5. Is that purposeful?

well, but that there definition, I kinda have 3 splash pages. The first is an F&K-style intro with Cambria big font, the next is a color picture of a battle against a big undead monster, and the third is a page like in aWoD (page 2) where I list the people who I used for a lot of information.

Eep, that big of a deterrant, huh?

Let's see... when I do that, it jumps from 91 pages to 128. Then making everything two-column puts the count down to 96.

Cool beans, I like it that way. Thank you, sir! :cool:

Yeah, without landscape-style formatting on the techinques page, I run 4 techniques/page instead of 6, which makes for a bazillion more pages and murders trees (I'm printing 3 copies of this book in total.... lots of pages)

Also, what is a splash page?
