This is wonderful! Not only is there another DQ supplement, the author is none other than Steve Jackson. Some may have known about this for 35 years, but as someone who didn't, it's a very welcome surprise. This is truly a wonderful thing.
Nice summary. But... Since there is also a FT cost to these endeavors. even a healer with 20 FT ends up with only 5 neutralize poisons before resting. Further complicating the schedule. Absolutely. That is also why I set the random number o…

Another change to language might be something along the lines of a difficulty modifier. For example non-humans might find it far more difficult to learn a human language and vice versa. Now since there would be more human than non-human soc…
Unfortunately my computer can't read your program. Any idea what I'd need to download to correct this? As I mentioned at the top of the article MapTool is a Java program and you will need to have Java installed on your system. Also the down…
