    I've got two left hands!

    Mr. Boll Weevil has two extra limbs. Should my four-armed hero be considered two have two or three "off-hands"? If the answer is three, would ambidextrity work on all four arms?

    He has 3 off-hands, but if he buys ambidexterity ALL are ON-hands. Page 112 of 5th ed. verifies this, I looked it up, it's under the Extra Limbs power.

    I kinda thought that you meant that you had two hands and both got the -3 penalty for using the "left" hand.

    Sorta like anti-ambedexterity, what would you give that as a limitation?

    Well sure, if you wanna go and read the book, uh...<<sigh>> Thanks for the input. My illiteracy has shamed me long enough. I WILL learn to read!!

    Alibear, I think if both limbs are offhand, I would reduce your Dex. Physical Limitation: Throws like girl?

    Nah, don't feel bad, I just wanted to check myself. I didn't mean to make it sound like a "RTFM" comment, we all miss stuff from the books on occassion. I just didn't want somebody to come along and then be proven wrong myself so took a few minutes.
