04-11-06, 02:15 PM I recently borrowed Power of Faerun and Tome of Magic from someone in my group and was wondering what crunchy bits were worth paying attention to?

I'm not actually seeing a lot of crunch in Power of Faerun, on my quick glance through I remember seeing one prestige class and a handful of feats scattered through the book.

For Tome of Magic I remember seeing a lot of stuff about truenaming stuff (Anima Mage?). This book looks much more crunchy.

Any good threads that go in depth on the crunchy bits of ToM?

So far the Binding has gotten most attention; Truename seems to be hamstrung by the mechanics; Shadow Magic hasn't seen as much activity as either, so far.

04-11-06, 09:11 PM Power of Faerun has Heretic of the Faith, which I think Caelic best described. (I think it was Caelic.)

Paraphrased:

"[Heretic of the Faith] shows that, regardless of what the fluff text says, Clerics can really do whatever they want."
