Changelog

updated Dispel Magic and Greater Dispel Magic to incorporate the good bits of Counterspell

removed the Universal Monster Rules page. Terms which remain in use have been moved to the Glossary of Terms page.
Updated all references to concentration (including caster level checks, combat casting, etc.), to make use of Caster Checks as the base mechanic (a bailiwick skill check).

if you find any references to this which don't point to a bailiwick skill check, please let me know so I can fix it.

Added a list of player-purchasable Poisons, as well as rules for how they work. Player poisons are much simpler than monster poisons, having only an instantaneous damage effect and (potentially) a 1-round debuff.

Added rules for voluntarily holding your breath. Updated the movement skill for swimming to incorporate these rules.

holding your breath outside of combat is very abstract. GM's can decide how long the party can do so, but generally a couple of minutes, regardless of CON.
in combat, holding your breath is quite hard.

Updated Treasure and XP page to detail the Remnants system, which replaces Crafting Materials.

MONDAY GAME: Added a few sentences to Fontaigne, Ottovar, and Fallen Nations pages.

All characters now gain natural talents in their Bailiwick and one additional skill at level 1, and gain additional natural talents at 11th, 21st, and 31st levels. (Italicized text is unchanged.)

NOTE TO SUNDAY GAME: The party has already received a 'bonus' natural talent, which counts as the natural talent we would have received at level 11. That is, until level 21, this change will not affect characters in the Sunday party.
In addition, a rule has now been added to allow players to add a natural talent to a skill which is already a natural talent for them. Such double-natural-talent skills no longer automatically fail on a natural 1, and can never fail by 5 or more, regardless of the target DC or the suckiness of the roll. See Natural Talent for details. This is a boon for high-skill classes in particular, who may not want to remap very many of their skills, but is nice for any character that wants to deeply specialize in a skill.

Several fear status conditions re-written to make running away considerably less mandatory.
Epic bard feats (group inspiration, mass inspiration, colossal inspiration, epic inspiration) written, in light of recent changes to bard performances.

Added a "Bribes and Tips" section to the Money and Merchants page.

Fixed Rattling Fist Feat to remove references to old Brawler.

removed See Alignment spell - breaks stories, and steps on paladin ability.
changed Ant Haul - only 10 lbs per caster level increased carry capacity instead of "triple".

Note: this may affect magic items in the party! You can either cash them in for what you paid, or update them to the new rules.

updated Blind - added sections for non-targeting senses and natural blindness.
updated the Bard's Soothing Performance song, which now provides a pool of healing, instead of a fixed amount of fast healing.
Renamed Monster Templates to Monster Patterns. This was done to de-duplicate the game system from the wiki software.
