Under the sections for Feats, Special Abilities and Other Possessions, there's a column/marking "PG.". I'm guessing this is supposed to mean the page number in the player's manual? Not entirely sure, so I thought I'd ask the question here.

Thanks in advance for the help.

That is indeed what it is for (IMHO) so that you can mark the page the feat appears on for easy reference. (The other words that "pg" is an abbreviation for don't make sense)

09-16-04, 09:54 AM My thoughts as well. Regarding the jump from 2E to 3.0 or 3.5. Well there's alot of difference regarding how some things are set up. Reading the Players handbook will clear things up alot. I still use the old 3.0 CD character generator to show new players how Attributes affect other parts of their characters lives, skills etc.
Da'Newf.... would that be... From Newfoundland by any chance?
