That’s the dwarf out of the way. I’m going to try to get through the rest of the RSRD races, hopefully tonight. I hope you’ll excuse the lack of commentary in exchange for more (draft) content. RSRD Elf Traits +2 Dexterity, -2 Constitution. Medium: As Medium creatures, elves have no …
Now that I’ve described how to convert a race to a cornerstone, let’s actually try it. Creating a Cornerstone Talent from the RSRD Dwarf I’m going to work from the Revised System Reference Document, since this is likely to be readily available to most readers. I think in practice I will …
I suppose it really has been a couple of weeks since I looked at capstones, I’m way overdue looking into cornerstones. Where common talents are typically things a character can learn, and capstone talents often mark what a character has achieved, cornerstone talents often represent what a character is. In …
Some discussion in IRC about the merits of d20 versus 3d6 for task resolution led to some examination, and the examination led to some curious conclusions. A +1 bonus on a d20 is seen as a 5% improvement, because it opens one more die value (a 5% chance) to be …
Okay, I don’t think I’ve posted on task resolution here beyond an expectation of being similar to Revised System Reference Document (RSRD) task resolution, but a post today on google+ got me thinking. That thinking was that I am not happy with how the skill system was working out. The …
So, ultimately and officially my NaGaDeMon 2012 bid failed, by the simplest definition of not making it to the table in November. I am mildly disappointed by this, but only very mildly indeed. While I didn’t get as far as actually playing Echelon I am in a wonderful position to …
So, Eldritch Knight is too boring for you, eh? Alright, I’ll take that implicit challenge. I used Martial Training rather than BAB on the assumption this was a military-oriented archetype. Each tier of the capstone also requires a Mastery talent for at least one melee weapon of your choice. Tier …
Dawnforge was one of the semi-finalists in the “new D&D setting” contest done by Wizards of the Coast about ten years ago (the one Eberron ultimately won), and ever since it was published by Fantasy Flight Publishing I’ve really liked it. This setting focuses on mythic heroism, to the point …
The Tome of Awesome collects material posted primarily by Frank Trollman and Keith (no last name provided, not me). I have seen statements from Frank that this is ‘freeware’ and ‘creative commons’, but no formal license statement in the document itself. Since I am using this as a placeholder at …
After posting the Eldritch Thread Talents earlier today, I have updated the divine talents posted a few days ago to include the domain spells. I’m not entirely certain how I want to apply them, but I have a few ideas. Characters who take the divine talent domains can safely use spell …
