Raven Blackwell/Mongoose Old Bear Hybrid: If directly editing someone's personal post to make them look like they have multiple personality disorder doesn't confirm our suspicions about corporate big-wigs, I don't know what will :lol:. (In case this is a PC problem on my end, disregard this...

Yogah: Ooph... This kind of statement is bound to be unpopular with a substantial demographic. I chose not to quote you on it, in case you choose to retract it.

Voltumna: I guess you're talking about the Assassin's Death Attack? I think two of these thief abilities (Gift Giving and Read People) are based on noble social abilities from Messantia, but I don't own that book, so I can't be sure. The other two are called Sweep and Without a Trace, and I...

Personally, I think Seek the Broken Vow and Inviolate Oath are interesting because they feel "new". Whirlpool and Waterspout have elaborate rules sections, and they are cool as well. However, the spells in Hyboria's Fallen doesn't have the huge flavour sections that some of the Hyboria's Finest...

Language barriers shouldn't be much of a problem. Since they start with Int modifier +4 languages, and gain one per odd level, most players should speak several languages. They can also spend two months learning a new language, or even spend a Fate Point to get one. And remember that many...

The temptress has many social abilities, lots of class skills and skill points, a few sneak attack dice, and is weak in traditional combat. An effort seems to have been made to give more variant rules on average to the temptress multiclass options than other multiclass options. However, one of...

Raven: In my first rant about Corruption I actually mentioned Shannon Kalvar's use of it. My personal opinion is that he probably either decided to expand on Corruption or even assumed it covered evil acts because of the name. Even though some people in the recent Corruption thread used...

Kirowan: The thing about Conan you need to realize is that due to the Massive Damage rule most of the classes have the theoretical potential to kill one or maybe even more enemies in the first round of combat, providing they win initiative and the enemies don't have any of these: Undead type...

I've made a spell list that I believe has all the spells published so far. The problem is I've made this list with functionality in mind, and I've cut all information that's irrelevant for me. Therefore it might not be the kind of list people would want. And even if someone wanted it, I don't...

D&D 3.5 has the Scent extraordinary ability. I remember D&D 3.0 having a variant rule that allowed races with "big noses" (gnomes and half-orcs) to take Scent as a feat. Prerequisite was Wis 11, but it was made clear that Scent was good for a feat. I'm not sure if this variant rule made it to...

Like Vincent said, the best thing for you might be to ask your GM to reality shift your character. Even if this isn't an option, you might still be able to "save" your character. Hyboria is a harsh world, and I think you need some kind of focus in combat. Granted, being an expert at disarming...

Thanks for the answers. I can only speak for our group, but my sorcerer has gone from level 1 to 8 without using craft (alchemy) once. I've used craft (herbalism) several times, though. But when I finally have the time to do some alchemy I will definitely consider making the Distillate. I'm not...

This has little to do with Slaine, but I was wondering if stats for Ligureans have been published somewhere?

I have a few additional questions about some of the items in Hyboria's Finest. 1. What is the DC to craft Distillate of Black Lotus? 2. Does the craft DC 22 apply to both varieties of Red Lotus? What is the DC to find Red Lotus? 3. Does the craft DC 25 apply to both varieties of White Lotus...
