Throwing Objects Off the Earth in the D20 System

Authors: James Russel

We derive the minimum strength score require for a character to throw an object off the Earth in the d20 roleplaying system. By examining a "worst case" scenario involving air resistance, we show that the presence of the atmosphere induces a negligible correction to the minimum strength score, which is 114 for a Medium creature throwing another Medium creature off the Earth.
