There is no multi-classing option but no human character can be very limited in level for some archetype, it's a choice of game design ? it can prevent a player from choosing certain fun options because they are too limiting (for exemple a dwarf bard or a halfling knight)Raskalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04640506619703994755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8992605258478501966.post-14295661321754979992020-01-11T05:25:10.107-08:002020-01-11T05:25:10.107-08:00It's great how well the KS is going, I'm w...It's great how well the KS is going, I'm waiting for the International Backer pledge level and then I'm in :) <br />Total digression - but is Undiscovered Dungeons still going to be published sometime ?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8992605258478501966.post-10588129751872664882020-01-06T19:24:11.803-08:002020-01-06T19:24:11.803-08:00Yes, but I'm saying the word "fey" d...Yes, but I'm saying the word "fey" doesn't mean anything at all to do with fairies, and it's rather a shame that WotC used the term in 3rd edition D&D, because now everyone misuses it. It has a meaning; none of them involve pointy ears or dragonfly wings.<br /><br />https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/fey<br /><br />It's not a noun. It's not even the sort of adjective that lends itself well to being a poetic substantive.

I'm looking forward to the Kickstarter tomorrow and to seeing how you handle the Fey.David Noonanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17331339701624259903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8992605258478501966.post-28492418001587488062020-01-06T08:00:40.284-08:002020-01-06T08:00:40.284-08:00Big pet peeve of mine.

"Fay" or "Fae" are acceptable English spellings for "beings from Faerie."<br /><br />They're unrelated, with "fey" having a Germanic origin and "fae/fay" both coming from Latin "fata" (fate).John Higginshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06522143715905888511noreply@blogger.com
