05-29-07, 12:44 PM Haven't seen it, but my first impression would be that it increases your carryinig capacity.

05-29-07, 12:45 PM If memory serves me right, it increases your carrying capacity by 50%. Might have some other effects too, don't remember.

Yep. Just increases your carrying capacity by 50%. Thats it.
I just wonder if it in one of the other dozen books I don't have, but from the sounds of it, Icewind Dall made it up.

05-30-07, 10:50 AM I recall a Drow-Only feat that did just that.

Sec.

EDIT: Couldn't find it, but I'm quite sure it exists.

05-30-07, 11:57 PM The "feat" originated as a perk from the Fallout game series, which was made by the same designers who did Icewind Dale. Prior to that, it did not exist in D&D (which made sense, given that few DMs actually bothered to track encumbrance).
