    I have created, in PnP play, swords named "FrostFire" (longsword) and "Freezerburn" (shortsword). They had icy blue flames when "ignited" and did both types of damage. A bow with these properties seems magically possible. It is like the old Dragon Magazine argument- "You can let yourself believe in Dragons, Mages and Elves, but you say that chainmail pant's are impossible?"

    I love the capabilities of magic!

    Wait a minute ... Dragons, Mages and Elves?

    Of course I believe in Dragons, we call them crocodiles because they're good at hiding their wings.
    Mages .... Have you ever talked to a Math teacher? They can count things that don't exist, MAGIC I Tell ya!
    And Elves ... Take a good look next time you're at the mall, the sneaky buggers always wear some kind of hat even when it's really really hot out.

    Chain mail pants? Never!

    Next you'll be trying to tell me electricity flows AROUND a wire and not through it, or that gravity actually pushes and not pulls things.

    Pish Posh I say! :p

    Gravity Shmavity. We all know it doesn't exist. We are all held on this big ball because the Earth sucks.

    Sorry to burst your bubble, but electricity does not travel "through" a wire or any other conductor. It travels on the surface of a conductor. :p

    At the risk of spoiling a joke I'll come clean.

    Both statements were meant to be misleading and obviously untrue, maybe even facetious.

    Thanks though, being a licensed low voltage contractor I was not aware of the "skin effect" that valance electrons take when being coerced from one place to another while taking the path of least resistance. ;) heh heh

    Imaginary Numbers DO exist. They just aren't real. :p

    Electrons propagate along the surface of a conducter beacause they repel each other. It requires a greater emf to push the same number at a time "through" a smaller "wire", closer together.

    What was this thread about? Oh, yeah!

    1. I wish the missing drow image from vanilla would be returned to the portraits. It's better than half of the images. (THERE! I said it!)

    2. I wish Gnomes would be replaced with another charecter race: Drow, Asimir, Tiefling, anything!

    Although I fear it impossible due to Core coding still being blocked, yeah, if possible lose the Gnomes and bring in the Tieflings (or full Orcs at least!) Or just Add another race or two and leave the little blighters (Gnomes), SOMEONE must play them, right? Someone? Anyone?

    Also, I have been reluctant to mention it because of the same fear of Core coding being blocked, but:

    Is there any way to add more/different Skills? SO Very Many really good ones are out there in PnP, but we cannot use them. The set they have is decent, but I crave more....

    You can have one not the other. We might be able to replace gnomes, but then you don't get their +2 bonus to Alchemy if its introduced....

    I'll try that replace gnomes thing, it just might be doable.
