Depending on if the ability scales with character level or class level, it might be better to say 1/2 class level instead.

Nah, it's perfect the way it is. It's fine to have a cute/creepy avatar.

It's a bizzare dispropotionate kinda cute thing that stares into me while I try to talk about dragons and barbarians and whatnot. It's just creepy

I intended to, and I sort of lied. The next thing I'm doing is really going to be learning to use subversion so I won' need to actually send them.

I've been thinking on the concept of scaling magic items some lately, the general concesus is that this is the 'goood' way to design items so that you dont end up in a magic arms race as you level up (like in D2, or any game ever). But frankly getting new magic items and trashing the old is very muc...

Aktariel, my reasons for including the things I do are, really, selfish in nature. I'm including things mostly on a "I want to use this" basis, for the exact purpose of having a complete set of rules for me and my group of friends to use and enjoy. My ultimate goal is to have a whole syste...

Perhaps this would be a good use for footnotes? Have a footnote for all of the 'unvetted' indicating that the class or feat or whatever may lack balance.

Oh yeah, looks like enchantment and transmutation are unrepresented too. But like I said, if you think of a more balanced spell level 9 ability, tell me and I'll include it (or even feats covering those other schools). And its funny you should mention the spirit shaman and psion, my players have bee...

Hah, will do.

Edit: Now that I look though, that would make Illusion the only school that wouldn't have a Metamagic Feat tied to it. Do you, perhaps, have something else to put at the 9th level slot?

Okay, I did some more work on it today. In fact, I think the source looks clean enough compared to what I used make the previous document that I wouldn't die from embarrassment from posting it up. Every time I update it I'll put the relevant files in this drop . The biggest changes are thus: I added...

Ha, I did chose the name for a reason, so it's not a merit-less title; but I'm not cutting out the flavor because I don't like it. On the contrary, I've read it several times and love it. For a printed table reference book though its just not necessary. And as to why the Warlock isn't in there... ac...

Ok, so, here's what I've done. And keep in mind, in this case I'm doing this for me, so if someone doesn't like my ideas on formatting... meh. I've cut out pretty much all of the 'fluff' that frank and K wrote, and tried to cut it down to just the rules and things that they said directly relating to...

Well, I tried my hand at LaTeX today to see if I could use the source to cut out all the fluff material and rearranging the community classes and feats to appear with the others in order make a shorter document fit for printing just the rules.

I've been running some Tome games lately, and as an experiment of sorts I've tried to stick exclusively to Tome material with as little 3.5 material as possible. I think it would be nice to have a PDF that had everything you need to play the game as a self contained system. All the skills are OGL fo...

You can also 5' step during a full attack, so you could swing three times and chop down some minion-fodder before stepping up to the boss and smacking him with your full BaB.

It seems like it would be workable to make a new metamagic feat for the schools that were left out of that link, and with a few more peppered in from the boards there would really be enough to support a fair amount of diversity in the casters. I was really simply hoping to avoid writing them myself....

Looking for more [Tome] material

I am getting ready to run a game, hopefully only using material from Frank and K's tome material, and material made to work with the Tome material. Unfortunately there's a few holes in the material that I want to try and patch up. I already managed to find the tome armors that Mister Sinister comple...
