Burning Wood Keith Davies 2007-07-23 Smoke wafts above the canopy of the great forest, lit faintly red underneath by a distant fire, a sign the Burning Hills lie ahead.

Miles of forest lie burned to the ground, and now you can see the flames licking a thousand feet in the air in the hills beyond, darkening the skies with it's smoke. The breeze at your back and the forest consumed, it seems safe enough to approach.

Cresting a small rise you see the fire's heart, burning atop a thousand acres or more of unaffected trees at the center of this desolation. The land, hidden from the sun by smoke is visible in the orange glow of the great fire, it's heat uncomfortably warm on your face even a mile away.

For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble."

Revised Character Advancement Keith Davies 2007-08-06 Exploring how to change character advancement to get rid of several irksome things in the Revised System Resource Document. I think I see a way to make starting characters more survivable without increasing the frontloaded benefits currently see (dipping -- taking a single level of a class to get iconic or large benefits -- annoys me). I think I also have a way to replace 'favored classes' and actually meet the stated goal, that of encouraging characters of certain races to fit into particular archetypes... without forcing them to do so. 83
