I sure do...have one running, actually the most fun Ive had with any character, so far...but it could be because of Shadowlords and Dreamcatcher

Those are great for roleplaying. I had more fun with those two series then with any of the official Bioware modules [img]smile.gif[/img]

really? i know about them, but i've not heard how they were by someone who's actually played them. they're available on the vault, right?
i loved what we got of rob's "Witches Wake". and gagne's "elegia eternum" & the other one by him, "excrucio eternum". hrmmm was that it? doesn't quite sound right.

i like roleplaying w/ a strong story, character development and a coherent plot. will dreamcatcher and shadowlords live up to that?

*grins* sorry to pump you for info, but for the most part, i trust the opinions of players from IW.

vesselle,

Shadowlords and Dreamcatcher are two of the best series of non-Bioware created mods available. I strongly recommend them. I've actually played through both series twice with different characters - once solo and once multiplayer. Give them a try. [img]smile.gif[/img]

You USUALLY can't wrong with the Hall of Fame mods on the vault, BUT there are some that I didn't like. The most notable of these is Abaddon's Gates of Myth Drannor. I just didn't enjoy it.

humans,elves,together? Now that to me is terrible

I wonder what your stance is on half-drow...

DrowArchmage · 08-06-2004, 06:50 PM

a half drow is a monster and i'm sure if one was seen in Menzoberrazan or ChedNasad they would be tortured in the ruleing houses dungeon

Half-Elves are smaller in the game. I always play them. Human just look like some huge brutes, and elves are so small they almost seem like some tall kids.

They get bonuses in the same skills as elves do, but only +1 in most cases. They do have the human's favored class rule. They are more resistant to mind affecting spells, and are immune to sleep.

Edit: OH! I remember seeing some Half-Drow in the 2nd Edition Forgotten Realm Setting, as well as some reference to them in the Monster's Handbook.
