Useful Links for Roleplaying
General Roleplaying
- http://www.giantitp.com/forums/ - My favorite community for roleplaying. Tons of discussion, homebrew and play-by-post games happening here, for pretty much every system ever. Giant in the playground is also the home of several roleplay-inspired comics, like Order of the Stick.
- https://www.wizards.com/dnd/dice/dice.htm - Wizards of the Coast's dice roller. Its been around for ages, but it does what it says on the tin. Alternatively, use the one on this site.
- http://www.myth-weavers.com/ - Here be sheets. A great way to save and share your character sheets online, very user-friendly. Their forum also has a lot of play-by-post games going on.
- https://roll20.net/ - Probably the best way of playing a roleplaying game over the internet. Haven't been using it lately, but its pretty damn good. Takes some getting used to, and has more options if you pay for a premium account.
Pathfinder
- http://paizo.com/ - These are the guys that made Pathfinder, nuff said. Their forum is a good place to discuss the game.
- http://www.d20pfsrd.com/ - The home of pretty much all things Pathfinder. All races/classes/spells/feats/traits from official Paizo books are stored here. There is also a huge amount of 3rd party content, chief among it being Dreamscarred Press' Psionics and Path of War systems.
- http://dreamscarred.com/ - A great 3rd party Pathfinder publisher. They brought D&D 3.5 Psionics and Tome of battle back to Pathfinder. Did I mention I'm a fan? They have a lot of discussion and playtesting going on in their forum.
There is currently a playtest for Path of War: Expanded on Giant in the Playground.
- http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2m612?Guide-to-the-Class-Guides - I linked the Paizo website already, but this page is worth mentioning separately. The Guide to the Class Guides is a great place to learn how to build any character. If this page can't help you, use your google-fu.
- https://docs.google.com/document/d/1o91Z-s0R7Vf2Ujj1lFqGC5W--9JOyU0I6uC9XRIR5to - This google docs file is called: "Getting X to Y". It is a list of all known legal (non-3rd party) ways to get ability score modifiers as bonuses to stuff they normally aren't applied to. Want Int to bluff, or Cha to AC? Its in that list.
