Is it possible to get a glimpse at some of the rules of the your "Forgotten Heroes"- Book. I want to play a Druid, but the group starts next week. If you gave me Information about the powers of a 2nd level Druid You'd force me to buy the book for advancing in level. That would be a win-win situation, if you ask me .
Keep up your good work
Regards from Germany

Re: I want to play a Druid
Ask and you shall receive, Nuwanda! A PDF preview of the druid has just gone up here. It goes all the way up to level 5, but I bet the lure of druidic feats and magic items will tempt you to buy the book before then...
Co-author: Forgotten Heroes: Fist, Fang, and Song and Scythe and Shroud; Heroes' Handbook: Eladrin; and two finished Goodman projects that haven't been announced yet, with others on the drawing board!
Re: I want to play a Druid
Hey, the Druid-Powers sound great. Not much damage but much "controlling", I like that. Constantly slowing your enemies or knocking them prown is probably fun, expecially if you join a band of strikers which need combat advantage for extra damage.
There are even non-combat-powers (like wildshape, summon familiar), which i apreciate much, since one of the main flaws concerning the new Edition is, that it's too much focused on fighting. The familiar is back in, but it is alot easier to handle now. I will definitely try your rules.
However, there are Questions left.
For example: Where do I get my implements? Am I supposed to start with a fetish? How much does it cost me? Do I still benefit from it (getting more damage off a weapon) when its not magical (like, say, an unmagical rod or staff)?

Re: I want to play a Druid
Spotted one mistake:
Bear: When your bear is hit by a melee attack, you can make a saving throw as an immediate interrupt. If you succeed, your bear is unharmed. You can add your Constitution modifier to Intimidate checks made using your bear.
Wolf: When your bear is hit by a ranged attack, you can make a saving throw as an immediate interrupt. If you succeed, your bear is unharmed. You can add your Constitution modifier to Stealth checks made using your bear.

Is it a mistake, or meant as some kind of role-play-spurring rivalry between the bear and the wolf...?Arakor wrote:Spotted one mistake:Bear: When your bear is hit by a melee attack, you can make a saving throw as an immediate interrupt.

Is anyone else picturing a kind of Looney Tunes scenario...?
...just me, eh?
