I dislike the idea of genetic superiority with respect to one race/culture of humanity over any other, even in a fantasy setting.

In the real world, we can see that advances in knowledge are not ju ...

I mean, what base statistics point array (for Str, Dex, Con, etc.) is assumed for the profiles?

nijineko, I finally read the 5e UA Psionic Options, and I like them—particularly the Wild Talent feat and the Rogue soulknife option. Both seem like we could seamlessly integrate them, and I'm now con ...

Well if I can help with anything let me know.

Thanks!

I guess if you see him sooner than I do, point him to the question here, since we are both curious?

I really enjoyed the analysis of the impact of the slightly different rule sets within 2nd ed. Thank you very much, AuldDragon!

No. I haven't been on the discord since... a certain incident. So, I'll just patiently wait here for a reply. He's replied to me on another thread in the Beyond Flanaess section since that time, so I ...
