There's free SRD, Nerjin. It's very similar to 3.5 save for archetypes and a few changes to how some select mechanics work. And fewer classes(though archetypes easily make up for that).

It's much the same for me; I'm not terribly familiar with Pathfinder. My general impression is that it runs smoother, but my collection of sourcebooks are for 3.5.

As for the other, that's at 6th level and on a single target. As far as I'm aware the only limitation on Half-Vampire Charm Person is that if the target makes their save you can't try again on them for 24 hours. Which only really matters in combat, and 90% of the use of Charm Person is for abusing NPCs outside of combat. And it's available from first level. So as long as there's nobody around to know what you're doing, you can even keep trying every day. Granted, it's not as large a concern right now, given that 2/3 of the top-level NPCs are wizards and dragons, but it's the principle more than anything else. Not to mention the range of other bonuses from the template, and all of the bonuses from the other template. It's like a lesser version of someone blatantly handing in a Pun-Pun for a campaign when nobody else is trying to game the system to that degree. :/

I wouldn't wnat to rely on SRD for another game system. It'd feel like stealing to me.

So no Warhulk prestige class, then :P?

This party seems to be divided between the stupid people and the smart people.

It's online and free. :P

Purposefully free, mind you. Official and whatnot. Just like DnD 3.5 Core.

EDIT: I kinda want Ulric to slug Oso.

Mostly because it wouldn't do anything, and it would be funny to see the dwarf realize that.

I fully expect Oso to be constantly disappointed at his jokes going over everyone's heads.

Except the dwarf, who's a Dwarf, and the elf, who's an Elf.

Well now, Tawarochir; whether you can do that depends on how long his beard is.

If it's more than a foot long, it'll take a couple rounds.

Wait, I don't understand.

How can those words be in a sentence like that?

It doesn't make any sense. It's an oxymoron. To be a dwarf, one cannot be clean-shaven.

Dunno, I saw it when I was scrounging his sheet for shiny bits to steal. Apparently it gets in the way of his very not elven bow.

Yeah, some dwarvenly dwarf this is.

Using a bow(real dwarves use crossbows!).

Not having a beard.

I bet he was exiled from the mines and crap for this sort of slovenly elf-like behaviour.

Which probably means he's sensitive about it.

Joy oh joy oh happy day!

Why do you think he's got such an obsession with dwarven superiority? Obviously compensating :P.

I'm already loving this sooooooo much. Still need to think of a way to get Ulric to get onto the troll. Otherwise his feat selection is sub-par.

Or to get him a normal mount.

...in all honesty it's already subpar...
