Drop by and say hi :)

Taught on 3.0, learned 3.5. DMed 3.5 for many years and love it still.

Favorite variants: Spell points, prestigious character classes, sorceror metamagic specialist, racial paragon classes, cloistered cleric, paladin of freedom, complex skill checks, weapon groups, craft points and summon monster variants.

Anyone playing in my game knows: Think outside the box, fear the rakshasa, demons are never your friend and a party that can't find traps will more often than not die by them.

Favorite DnD aspects: Roleplay and character personality development, long spanning adventures that convey useful things (tree of life, chakras... meaning), inventiveness and ingenuity.

Method Actor You think that gaming is a form of creative expression. You may view rules as, at best, a necessary evil, preferring sessions where the dice never come out of the bag. You enjoy situations that test or deepen your character's personality traits.

 comment What systems do use-based skill upgrades well?
It still seems like a list question without one single answer. I think your last paragraph (ie. skill farming) is a good question but it's not the focus - simply a side note.

+1 for professional custom instead of personal customization, great point. Also for discussing logistics.

 comment How should GM deal with 'standing orders'?
+1 standing orders aren't a way to outsmart the game, they're a way to stay on top of it.

+1 for handling it as a person-person dilemma instead of just an in-game.

 comment How should GM deal with 'standing orders'?
+1 for busy examining other things. Just because they're on high alert doesn't mean they are always sensitive to the correct thing. Also - I love your evil route.
