Novakri, Kalashtar Avenger

I really like the idea of a kalashtar’s quori spirit being able to manifest itself in badass ways. I did something to this affect for Bat Jew’s cleric back when I ran Age of Worms: he eventually attained a custom psionic power that let him physicall transform partially into a tsucora quori (higher level variations […]

Monster Builder Review

I remember trying out my first D&D character builder almost a decade ago, E-Tools. It was an attempt to do…something. You could erect the very basic framework of what might be considered a character, but that was about it. Since it never got updated, ever, you were also resigned to the core rulebooks and fuck […]

Pathfinder Preview #12: The Wizard

I havent talked much about Pathfinder since plenty of people do that on RPGnet. However, I’ve always liked the idea of wizards in D&D, so this one hits closer to home than the rest. The guest star this week is Ezren, a really old dude that apparently is not too old for this shit. He’s […]

Delve Night: Gnolls

Josh stepped behind the screen again last night to run another delve for like, the third fucking time in a row. I think he’s going to stop coming over because he invariably gets drawn into the role of a three-act DM every damned time. Last night was actually a scheduled run, to be fair. One […]

Players Handbook Heroes 2 Review

Player’s Handbook Heroes 2 is, as the name implies, the second set of PC-centric minis for Dungeons & Dragons to be released by Wizards of the Coast. It makes it easy for players to get a mini for use as a character without having to buy a bunch of D&D Minis boosters, especially given that […]

Divine Power Review

The third power source-specific book, Divine Power provides new options for avengers, clerics, invokers, and paladins in the form of class features, powers, and paragon paths. Chapter 5: Divine Options presents more widely applicable feats and epic destinies, but also has a fluff-section on deities and divine backgrounds.Basically, the book serves to expand upon the […]

Delve Night: Psion Playtest

Josh came over at random today, and so it was declared after much Taco Bell that he run a delve for one of our neighbors (since apparently my neighbors are a collective of like-minded geeks) and myself. We ran Orc Fortress, the level 3 delve out of Dungeon Delve. The party consisted of a dwarf […]

Reed, Half-orc Warden

A foundation for a playtest that I want to run using fell taints and taking place in the Shadow Marches (Eberron). Thus, a half-orc makes perfect sense. I’ve never played a half-orc, and no one has tried the warden, and I think this works out really well. No shield, so I’ll see how well a […]
