What about Commoners?

Jerry, try reading through older threads. You'll find many topics have been discussed in years before. Sometimes, reading those old threads gives new insight, and answers questions before you ask them. Calibron, for instance, proposed the exact same idea months ago. But personally, I'd rather use t...

So, with all these Artificers making wands, wouldn't the value of wands reduce in value, enough for House Cannith to corner the market on magic weapons?

Or is it such that for some inexplicable reason only PC Artificers do this?

You have obviously never been to No Mutants Allowed. They pretty much despise anybody who likes Fallout 3.

For people who know what they're doing and have been doing it for 7+ years. Face it Frank, designing fun rules variants on Internet Message Boards is your calling.

Such is the way of the Gaming Den.

How does society know you won't kill, once you've been born? It doesn't. That's why it does its best to make crime an obviously incredibly bad idea. What I'm saying is that if you want people who get released from prison to not feel any social stigma whatsoever, you would have to change society its...

But every day's a party at the Gaming Den!

A convicted sex offender winning the lottery? And the reaction people will have to that You'd be surprised at how many people still cling to the notion that there's a Heavenly Office of Appropriate Wordly Rewards that ensures good things happen to good people and bad things to bad people. Nevermind...

This comes to the biggest weird edge of Mormon morality. In Mormon theology, Satan is actually part of the same family as God and Jesus. They are literally a family of people from another planet who were rewarded with godhood and their own planet by their heavenly father. So in Mormon theology you ...

The Eberron Sucks article slightly drifted into DL territory, and I decided to make a new thread to prevent from going further off-topic. Basically, my question is why DL alignment is so different than traditional D&D alignment without being obviously advertised as such? It said nothing in the 3...

Eh, I'm just a pessimist.

It's not fair to use Dragonlance to disparage the old alignment system, since they modified the definitions so much. I mean, according to the 3.5 DLCS, "neutral" in DLland means "individual choice over everything" (at least on the Good-Evil axis). I guess that you're right; I me...

Alright, thanks!

[Warning! Long post] Ugh. The fans fanwank it pretty hard. Go on ENworld and post about Dragonlance. A guy named Cam Banks (who worked on a lot of the 3e Dragonlance stuff, apparently) will come and mindlessly defend it no matter what issue you raise. Know from personal experience? :lol: But serious...

In the Dragonlance Core book, they described Silvanesti racists being "good taken to extremes." Since when is racism good?! And I don't mean "I think that Asian people study hard" racism, I mean the "all other races are scum and deserve to be stripped of their rights" r...

I think that I'll just use my Stealth and Notice idea...

Thats pretty much where the crazy comes in. It fills in the giant logical leaps that kind of stand out. How do the fans and other authors explain it, then? I'd assume that Paladine's decision was not out of malice (he could've taken the Kingpriest's spells away to give him an idea that he's wrong),...

I'll try to think it out more, then.

After researching Dragonlance: How is being an intolerant, hateful zealot using religion as an excuse for bigotry "too much good?" He even had "Detect Thoughts-thump" style inquisitors! And how is it the mortals' fault for not "getting" the meaning of Good? If they didn...

In 3.5 D&D, some skills are more valuable than others, so I decided to combine some of them. Craft and Know (Architecture & Engineering) are now Craft. All Craft sub-skills are put into Craft. Knowledge (Nature, Geography, and Dungeoneering) become Know (The land). Knowledge (History, Nobili...

Neutrals get more slack. If you do that once, fine. If you start going all "Saw" on all the bad guys...let's just say every bad guy had to start somewhere. But I believe the guilt of the "victim" plays a part as well. That's why you only stab people in the face if they deserve i...

What your character did doesn't sound evil to me. If your character did that to people all the time for fun, then it would be evil, but doing to to someone who killed someone he cares about is just a sadistic form of justice. What your character did does sound evil to me...justifiable, perhaps, but...

Its part of the reason why, when they had a corrupt priesthood in Istar way back, it was somehow justified for the gods to drop a fiery mountain on everybody and strip clerical healing away, so that everyday people suffered and died in droves. So why don't the Gods just punish the less-than-straigh...
