Re: Charisma
Right now, it doesn't influence me at all, because I have no way of knowing when or how it should. This sentence deserves to be read a second time. My proposal initially was to enhance Charisma's value. Currently all it does is unlock three quests and give the player the ability to use certain adje...

Re: Charisma
I try to see it from both sides.
If I'm being intellectually honest, the only thing I see from the side against this is: "I don't want anyone to treat my PC with the charisma that they actually have because I think I can portray them as having a higher score without paying for it."

Re: Spicing up FK (New classes and New options)
In my perfect world, there would only be the core PC races. In my experience people try to force their characters into being interesting by being statistically unusual - as oppose to being interesting through personality and back story. I don't think this is a unique problem to FK, but a common thre...

Re: Paladin Mounts sensing evil even when supressed by magic
I would personally suggest removing the echo. It's not helpful to the paladin in question, as they have persistent detect evil, and it's often disruptive... Imagine if the mount took a dump 30 times in a one hour roleplay - it's pretty difficult to ignore after awhile. This aspect of the mount is no...

Re: Charisma
In current edition appearance is straight Charisma. It is the only stat associated with aesthetic appearance. Would it change anyone's mind if like minded players, of my camp, just decided to place that text in the first line? This would make it nonmandatory and also require zero extra effort by sup...

Re: Charisma
I'd like to add that Charisma used to be (not sure if it still is) a defining factor in whether or not a character would be given a quest by a npc. Especially for a lot of higher level quests. That is why I always thought it was a good idea to make sure that my characters had some charisma points. ...

Re: Charisma
Everything you said is true, and in no way would be hindered by someone seeing the Charisma score. If you wish to smote pumping your muscles to remind the player what the PC looks like, or smote about how weathered and leathery it's skin is - knock yourself out. It doesn't alter the exchange at all ...

Re: Charisma
Dump stat? Mechanically, it absolutely is. While you as a player decided to go this route, is fantastic, it's certainly a mechanical disadvantage...so why not receive a "soft" (meaning no mechanics attached) social advantage, showing such charisma to other players who are inclined to role...

Re: Charisma
I like where you're going with it - but that would be what Tammy was talking about, a mechanical forced feel. If the echo says repulsive or fascinating, then, if you're an extremely black and white I don't understand how to differentiate from intent and mechanics, it would be forced upon you because...

Re: Charisma
It would never be forced - just shown. There is no opposed check forcing anything. I personally would welcome being able to change how my PC's interact with others based on their play and supplemented by what I would then know to be mechanically true about the player character. Supplemented, not enf...

Charisma
I'd like to see a short tag before every description of a PC when you "look" at them. For Example, Kallias' description is this: This strapping, handsome man, is in his forties and above average height for a human male, standing 6 feet 4 inches tall (1.93 meters). His soft angled face is t...

Re: Hunger Rules
My characters carry around hundreds of rations and tens of water skins - a silly necessity that is dictated by code. Overall - I don't think it's a big deal. I've dealt with the code for ages and learned a long time ago to gorge on fountains and toss rations in whenever no one is around. An inexpens...

Re: Punch!
Just for the record - fiction of any kind has no bearing on canon, other than flavor text.
Edited: Obviously it's all fiction. The stories told in the fantasy novels aren't specifically canon, though.

Re: Magic Weapon
I'm ok with it staying just mundane. The problem is that, since it is specifically cast on the weapon, the item needs to be in the inventory...at least, that is my perception. If there is a way to make magic weapon an affect that is visible, and allows you to cast it on the weapon while being held -...

Re: Magic Weapon
Changing the name, to reflect the change, would be ideal. I believe it's currently unused because of how clunky it is. Forcing the item to be specifically in your inventory is tiresome. I suggested making it self only because that is the only way I can see it working well with our zmud interface, an...

Re: Divine Favor
I think my main point is, unless it's a one shot spell, like true strike, is there really a reason to have it last a shorter period of time than the attribute buff spells? The spell is useless when alone, with no breaks for RP...in a group, it's absolutely pointless...at least for classes who only h...
