I tend to stick with monks and fighters in 3.5. My partner has a monk character he'd like to try out but my very first game of D&D the DM ended up using an item to turn my monk into a cat-girl type. I was not pleased.

Hello to you two!

Well it's really hard to find a good dungeon master these days and hard to find anyone who really plays and enjoys a good long session of dungeons and dragons. Most people I know don't have the patience to sit through a good long four to six hour session. How long do your sessions usually last?

@Scribbled Lore ~ You play Dungeons and Dragons too?! Awesome!! My friend and I both play a lot-- usually once a week if not more. He plays monks and fighters too, he doesn't care so much for spell caster classes.

Hi there, Locke! *waves* :)

I simply don't have a lot of experience with spell casters of any sort when it comes to D&D and I tend to stick with what I know, so. That's why I end up playing monks and fighters so often.

I don't mind long sessions but the eight hour ones boggle my mind! By that point I want a serious nap.

Hope you are doing well, monks and fighters are definitely fun to play, then again it also depends on who all you have in the group and what they are playing as. I have a new character I just created which was an elven paladin which is an interesting creation according to my dungeon master lol. seven hours or eight hours is the maximum I want to play, ten I need a serious nap as well.

@Kiwi Rose ~ Two different games in one day?! Wow, I think I would probably fall asleep in the middle of the second adventure. One shot adventures would not be as fun, maybe they would but I would like to continue something that I invest a lot of time in. You guys are dedicated as eight of us played for six months solid every week, but then people began slacking about showing up to sessions but it lasted for almost two years.

CZ and I, along with a friend, are doing a D&D 3.5 based game here on Menewsha where CZ is playing an elven monk and I'm playing a human paladin. I was frustrated I wasn't able to find the type of god I wanted for my paladin but she seems happy enough with the typical god of paladins.

-pops into thread- Hello, everbody! -notices newcomers- OOH! FELLOW GEEKS!!!!! ^-^ HAI!!!!!! -waves enthusiastically-

What's the difference between Reaper and D&D brands?

Speaking of which I need to get some minis for my Dungeons and Draongs sessions. We use paper machettes which is kind of cool but nothing like the nice pewter or hard plastic minitures that you don't constantly have to continuously fold up. We use a map for combat as well.

Isn't it difficult to find a miniature to represent the character image you have in your head? Like finding a red haired female paladin.

*does just that*

I think that if I could find a female paladin carrying a warhammer then I wouldn't mind if it was unpainted or not. I might even prefer an unpainted version!

Human. Telema is a human paladin. I hope that makes it easier rather than harder to find. I definitely appreciate you keeping an eye out for me.

I saw the map packs in the store that you linked to and I think I may be lusting after them.

I know, right? It's like no one carries warhammers or maces anymore. What's up with that?

Oooh, see, now I didn't think that the weapons could be removed from the miniatures.

That's really cool. So maybe I could pick up one of the weapon kits and a paladin/knight that I like and just switch out for the warhammer. Hm..

Of course, this is all dependent on me having a reason to pick up some minis. Right now all my games are online. We're not doing anything face to face at the moment.
