#1 With a Bullet Point: 14 Halfling Burglar Feats

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Sometimes rules supplements read like the world-setting bible of frustrated novelists. While solid world- building is a useful skill, you don’t always need four paragraphs of flavor text to tell you swords are cool, magic is power, shadows are scary, and orcs are savage. Sometimes a GM doesn’t have time to slog through a page of history for every magic weapon. Sometimes all that’s needed are a few cool ideas, with just enough information to use them in a game. Sometimes, all you need are bullet points.

#1 With A Bullet Point is a line of very short, cheap PDFs each of which gives the bare bones of a set of related options. It may be five spells, six feats, eight magic weapon special abilities, or any other short set of related rules we can cram into about a page. Short and simple, these PDFs are for GMs and players who know how to integrate new ideas into their campaigns without any hand-holding, and just need fresh ideas and the rules to support them. No in-character fiction setting the game world. No charts and tables. No sidebars of explanations and optional rules. Just one sentence of explanation for the High Concept of the PDF, then bullet points.

High Concept: Feats tying to halfling racial traits (including those found in the Advanced Race Guide) to allow halfling burglars (of any class) to feel like more than short elf rogues or gnomish bards without low-light vision (and if a group of players decided they all wanted to be halfling burglars, perhaps after seeing a good fantasy movie, also to give them way to differentiate their characters).

The feats included are:

  • Duck and Weave: You are adept at diving through the chaos of combat.
  • Hair Part: Traps are rarely designed to catch creatures your size and shape, and you’ve learned to use that fact to your advantage.
  • Knuckle-Cracker: You are skilled at hitting a foe’s hands with sling stones and forcing them to drop something.
  • Lucky Number: A group’s fortunes are improved just by having you as one of their members.
  • Marcherbook: You keep a journal of your adventures, and those of friends and allies.
  • Master Pickpocket: Your targets never notice when you decide to find out what’s in their pockets.
  • Old Blood: Your family is noted as having features that make you seem even more halfling than other halflings, and at the same time more adventurous and sneaky.
  • Parody: You can create songs or rhymes that anger your foes and throw them off their game.
  • Professional Burglar: You are not afraid to admit you are a professional burglar, trained in the art of entering buildings and steal the valuables within.
  • Proud Feet: Your feet are as tough and calloused as any boot, but still quite sensitive and nimble.
  • Riddlemaster: You can create a web of words that leave your foes bewildered.
  • Right in the Shins: You’ve learned how to take advantage of your small size and a foe’s distraction to hit where it hurts.
  • Scamper: You trust in your own ability to crouch down to a small size, and hurtle through tight spaces without pausing to consider the consequences.
  • Unseen By Most: If you focus on it, you can sneak about in places bigger and louder creatures cannot.

1 With a Bullet Point: 14 Halfling Burglar Feats from Rogue Genius Games is exactly what it says on the tin, 14 feats for halflings, mostly rogue oriented but other classes will find useful things here as well. As expected, these are solid, Lucky Num [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
