=Campaign Set-Up=

Wide-Awake is a sandbox 3.5 Dungeons and Dragons campaign run by Aurvandil that began in September 2014. In it, the players are transferred into the bodies of DnD characters. They possess the powers and skills of these heroes but lack their memories. All recall the injustices inflicted upon their host body by Wardon Kain, the man they've apparently been summoned to defeat. 

==House Rules==

'''Plot Points:''' A players start with one plot point. They can spend it to affect the world in numerous ways, such as to set up a scene, discover something important, or receive a last-second save. Aurvandil may issue plot points for impressive or useful action. 

The points refresh once everyone has used theirs. 

'''For PCs with full BABs:''' Critical chance is doubled. Criticals always confirm and do max damage. Crit chance can be improved by things like keen edge, etc. BAB is added for the attack to damage.

'''For Fighters:'''
*Fighters gain 1 feat every level not divisible by 3

'''For Psionic Warrior:'''
*''Swift Focus:'' Gain Psionic Focus as a Move action; as a Swift action with Psionic Meditation feat.
*''Lingering Focus:'' If Psionic Focus is expended to augment an attack, all attacks made as part of a Full Attack action are augmented as well.
*''Autoreinforcement:'' May manifest self-targeted Psionic Warrior powers as a Move action instead of a Standard action.

'''For War Mind:'''
*''Martial Power:'' Add War Mind level to weapon attack damage.
*''Mindcutter:'' May expend Psionic Focus to augment an attack to ignore target's DR.
*''Oportunistic Manifestation:'' When the War Mind scores a Critical Hit, may use a War Mind power as an Immediate action.
