also, my expirence with chicago is what i read about in DC comics. Superman's "Metropolis" was fashioned from Chicago and New York was "Gotham". so i see...
My understanding was that Cleveland was the inspiration for Superman's Metropolis. ... __________________________________ Yahoo! Mail - PC Magazine Editors'...
Well, after running changeling for 10 years i finally have a pooka player character. i looked over peter's "consolidated changes" which had some good points,...
While I don't like to shoot down ideas off hand, I really don't like the "all pooka get +1 to dex" thing. Why? Are Alligators, hippos, elephants, cows and the...
I thought this was kind of an old discussion, but to restate my position: I run Pooka like those small, adroit shape-changers from mostly Celtic myth. They're...
I had never heard this thing of all pooka getting +1 to dex. I agree with sandchig though and I'm against it. Having a cat or deer affinity can be good...
That sounds like a fine way to run pooka, so don't take this as an attack, I'm just trying to learn more about why you do what you do. I agree that those are...
I feel the question shows that you don't understand where I'm coming from. Why would I ever consider giving them other bonuses when an animal form that would...
No, I understand what you're saying. I'm just curious as to why you give your pooka players a physical bonus at all when they are not in animal form. Peter...
Well, they got a bonus to dex because that was the birthright I chose to give them since I ditched Confidant. Got to have 2 birthrights, Confidant was removed,...
Sorry if i caused any unwanted frustration. i was kind of hoping that anyone would have commented more on my discussions regarding the "confidant" birth...
Oh, sorry, Barney. Re: The Confidant Birthright. I've always thought that the Confidant birthright makes the Pooka ideal interrogators. Maybe teamed with a...
I for one had major problems running Pooka before changing them. Often players ignored Confidant or used it only to do silly pranks, which again confounds why...
There is about 238 people signed on this group. Does anyone think that it is possible that we become more proactive on trying to talk to the right people...
I have been told repeatedly that we should expect to see Keys to the Kingdom and Book of Glamour to appear on drivethrurpg.net. Chris Howard claimed such...
Still not out on drivethrurpg? Darn. I haven't been looking to get either book, but it was while ago that both were advertised for drivethru. I thought for...
I've heard several times that Gwydion's Truth Sense is a rather unpopular mechanic.I've even seen some alternative boons as a result of this dislike. I was...
Only that I agree with you completely, Peter. I've never had a problem with their house boon before. Dougal's on the other hand... ... [Non-text portions of...
I hear you. I've tried to come up with a better one, and use an alternative one for the games I run, but I'm not completely happy with my changes. Do you have...
Wait, Flaw? Nono, I'm fine with Dougal's flaw. It's fitting, thematically; the whole "twisted smith" thing that shows up in legends all over the place. Their...
I prefer that particular boon as "Can turn glamour into willpower, anytime" it makes it more useful in the outside world. Got a nasty bit of sovereign to...
Yeah, when i first read the dougal boon, i thought it was pretty lame too. then i adapted it in my game where dougal folks can also turn dross into willpower....
What exactly is the Eiluned Boon per books? As I'm sure I've mentioned, I use a sort of combination between 1st and 2nd edition rules, so am often not aware of...
I thought they changed affinity rules. Yes, that's a bit much. I use the old rules for affinities: an auto success, Eiluned get the same thing. Leaving the...
