| kelcimer01-25-08, 02:28 AM | Periods: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/periods 10 A punctuation mark ( . ) indicating a full stop, placed at the end of declarative sentences and other statements thought to be complete, and after many abbreviations. Capital Letters: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Majuscule Capital letters or majuscules (in the Roman alphabet: A, B, C, D, ...) are one type of case in a writing system. Capital letters (also simply called capitals or caps) are also known as upper case; manual typesetters kept them in the upper drawers of a desk, keeping the more frequently used minuscule letters on the lower shelf. |
| I_roll_ones01-25-08, 04:28 AM | Yes, that would work. Yes, beguilers use INT, not CHA for casting. And if optimizing, just do straight beguiler, perhaps with a sprinkle of Shadowcraft Mage() or Nightmare spinner. Why do you want Arcane Trickster? Your BAB will be crap, so you can't sneak attack anyway. You get less skill points. You'll have to mutliclass to get sneak, which doesn't even help you, so you lose levels of Beguiler. Edit: That post got edited. Was the business with the 11 year old lesbian-but-not-really assassin missing bits and is permanently on PMS there when I posted? If so, I need to read things more. And uh, getting over the...Shock, the characters might not experience PMS, really. Isn't estrogen produced by the ovaries, which I assume she lacks...And if she does, she's missing testosterone as well. Meaning, she'll look like she hasn't hit puberty yet, and look really young. She probably wouldn't even go through it. If they somehow are able to have PMS...And considering how BAD they have it, chances are good they'll have cramps up the wazoo considering how much the PMS seems to be affecting. Trying to be stealthy when your abdomen feels like it's trying to escape would be problematic. I really hope your table has thick skin if not, ditch character concept. Again, if you do not know your table well, DO NOT do this character. |

There are probably a lot of people who clicked on this thread, got about a tenth of the way through your posts, and then clicked the close box. Normally I would be one of them, but I'm feeling kind today I guess. First of all, what level is this game? You have a 20-level build listed, but then you say the ECL is 1. Second, I think the beguiler is a fun character to play, but that you'll really need to tweak this according to what kind of campaign you'll be in. (What's a great escape game? Is this a published module or something?) I'm not sure if the feinting mechanic ever really gets all that powerful, even with the beguiler. |

Great Escape Games is a gaming shop in the Arden area. people play d&d there. tell the druidzilla thread flamers, that i gave up on breaking classbanners game, but i will play there too. for Great Escape, i will go rogue, i plan on finding ways to augment sneak attack. in phb2, i read an entry saying beguilers don't get much from rogue. and i saw i would have to take more classes, just to get the two required cantrips. mage hand and predestignation. |
| Takk_Tealeaf01-27-08, 01:57 PM | first off, it doesn't sound like a very fun character to play. secondly, a lot of your current description doesn't make sense. how can she pms without a uterus (and i'm asuming no ovaries as well)? and, since you're asking "how to play" her, a lot of it would be up to the DM, as i would imagine schizophrenic episodes and other mental problems. you'd face a lot of... DM: You see the guy you need to kill. Player: I sneak up to him and kill him. DM: He wasn't really there. Roll a will save, oh, you failed? you got really ****** off, confused, cramped up, and passed out. You wake up an hour later in a jail cell. You feel really lonely. furthermore, it seems you've focussed more on the sexual aspects of her than on anything else. did we really need to know she was flat-chested? did we really need to know about the fetishism thing? it seems like those apsects of how to play her would be based on common sense: Player: I want to pick up the large box. DM: Well, since you don't have any of those pesky breast things, you can! Easy as pie! - Player: I make love to the bard. DM: Cool, you can't get pregnant, so you have nothing to worry about. other than that, you'd probably take hits on charisma (being bipolar, autistic, angry, and confused), and if you were to be a member of a larger party of other people, there'd be a lot of the DM taking you aside and/or explaining thing differently to you, not to mention how annoying it would be to the other players OoC. the more i think about it, it seems like you'd probably enjoy playing this character *outside* of a D&D game or writing another comic book based on the idea. that would be my advice. |
| Turin01-27-08, 10:46 PM | The hell? You posted verbal garbage, then when a couple people post advice, you edit your original post to make it look like nonsense. Are you just trolling here or what? Great Escape Games is a gaming shop in the Arden area. people play d&d there. tell the druidzilla thread flamers, that i gave up on breaking classbanners game, but i will play there too. Tell the...? What are you talking about? |

| Takk_Tealeaf01-28-08, 05:48 PM | either you get discouraged rather quickly or you have lots of bad ideas. maybe both. |
| DrMorganes01-29-08, 10:34 AM | I'm still trying to understand how a DM can allow the Player's Handbook but ban the SRD... |
| Zherog01-29-08, 01:54 PM | I'm still trying to understand how a DM can allow the Player's Handbook but ban the SRD... Perhaps he bans material in the SRD but not the PHB, for example all the psionics stuff, or the feats and such in the "Divine" section, such as Energy Substitution or Divine Might. |
| YamiShinobi01-29-08, 04:13 PM | either you get discouraged rather quickly or you have lots of bad ideas. maybe both. more like i get bad ideas, that can't fill competent roles. with the rogue, she kept getting up close with her rapier. to backstab (i.e. sneak attack) at level 1, just cause the guy didn't blatantly put a label on the creatures, spiders, zombies and such. and the guy wants to keep metagame to a minimum. |
