Re: What height do you prefer to pick for your characters?

I'm tall in real life, and I tend to choose tall or short heights for characters (nothing in-between) with a bias towards tall. Despite all that, I mostly play "small stature" ancestries, primarily because of the lesser popularity of shorter ancestries. I guess I have a contrarian streak. I do like ...

You should create a new forum/astrolabe account with that particular character / username which you wished it to be changed.

I received an error message when trying to create a password and it said to report the bug.

I will just delete my character.

No characters on astrolabe/support

When I login to astrolabe, it claims I've created no characters on Arelith, which is untrue. The CD key it shows is also not my Steam key for Neverwinter Nights.

I wanted to create a ticket to change a portrait.

Re: Cleric Vs Spellsword

Re: Stealthy

The feat 'Stealthy' gives +2 to Hide and Move Silent. It's hardly worth taking even for the most stealth obsessed builds. What could be done to make this feat more appealing? I had some ideas. The obvious being to just increase the amount it gives, to +4. I'd be content with it granting +3 to Hide ...

Wild Talents

It'd be cool for a character to get a few psionic abilities for a greater/major award. Some versions of D&D had "wild talents" that were those randomly born with psionic potential -- mostly NPC monsters but also particular races (such as humans and yuan-ti). I believe a character born with wild tal...

It seems to be all low-level Clerics that are affected. The spell basically ignores its own "minimum 4 HP healed" rule.

Thank you for confirming my report. I didn't realize it was a general issue. I'm surprised the result is 0 HP. Even a 1d4 should roll a 1 at a minimum.

Or, just not at all. Inclusion of Lust as a domain just seems asking for a lot of not PG-13 themes...

I would agree with that prediction and agree that would not be ideal. I will at least rename my above domain proposal to "desire domain" and may suggest other tweaks.
