Does anyone know of any software or spreadsheets for automatically creating a skeleton or zombie from a given monster? This would be for the Warlock's animate dead ability used on the fly during a combat to temporarily raise a fallen enemy to fight.

So, I guess that means whenever you play and a summon monster eats someone or even takes a bite of someone and then disappears, you describe the mess of fluids and blood and digested material that is lying around on the ground afterwards? Seems a bit out of theme to me, as that blood on the the...

Yeah, I ruled pretty much like you Shilsen, with the exception of the inanimate objects ... I ruled that those disappeared (going by the theory that you can pretty much do what you want to unattended items in the game).

So, my players keep asking me bizarre questions, mostly to be obnoxious, though one of them actually came up in play. I've making on the spot rulings, but wondered if there were actual rules, or in lieu of that opinions, on what should be done in the following situations: A summoned big monster...

Well, okay, but that's just lame. It's kind of hard to picture a wand being slower than a scroll to use. I have a hard time picturing a scroll as a free action at all.

Would you allow a character to willfully provoke an AoO as a free action without any penalty during combat (for example the fighter taking the hit on his turn so the wimp can move away from the monster without getting whacked, but have the fighter still take his full attack ... in essence just...

If you make a wand of some swift action spell, is it still a swift action to use the wand and cast the spell? I guess the same question applies to quickened wands. Speaking of which, a related question: if a character has some feat or class ability that allows him to quicken spells with only a...

Okay. The problem I have with it is that a Mirthral golem is supposed to be a CR 21 epic level encounter. However, a 2000 gp Slaying Arrow has like a 35% chance of killing it in one shot (they have Fort +12). That seems a little excessive to me (and a bit annoying since the players might Gate in...

In the SRD under Mithral Golem, it says: Magic Immunity (Ex): A mithral golem is immune to all magical and supernatural effects, Is this supposed to be different than most 3.5 Golems which in general just have infinite spell resistance instead of vague immunity like this? Or has it just not...

Missed that on the collossus ... guess it's artifact weapons or die.

Well, the one that made me think of it originally was the permanent anti-magic field around an Epic Clossus, which in all other ways (besides being always on, and extending to 100 ft) acts like antimagic field cast by a 25th level wizard. I was thinking of why something like that would even...

How would Mord's Disjunction work with always on spell-like abilities? Would you rule it surpresses them for some number of rounds like a Dispel Magic?

How about making a steam elemental that combines properties of Water, Air and Fire elementals? A drowing whirlwind that does continuous heat damage.

That was my point. I would let her make a maximized fireball a lot easier too, that is clearly overkill. But I was comparing it to LW and responding to someone else's question. As your post implies, there seems to be very few balance issues with letting LW cast a maximized fireball, which I was...

I would most certainly allow her to invent a spell with an effect equal to a maximized fireball that costs 300 xp as a 7th level slot.
