Ok, I've read the Level Adjustment sections in the MM, DMG and Savage Species. The text hints and alludes to how "Level Adjustment +1" affects character progression, but I'm still confused and I've yet to see one good, solid example. Planetouched don't have monster hit die of their own, it's...

Summon Monster II: There are no LG creatures. My LG Cleric can't summon a CG Celestial Eagle or the other *7* Evil monsters, leaving only...Formian Worker? Is there a reason you can't summon a LG Celestial Wolf as opposed to a LE Fiendish Wolf? I thought all base animals were neutral? So...

Brain fart... If a 3rd level Cleric casts Cure Light Wounds from a scroll, does it cure 1d8+3 (since he's 3rd level) or 1d8+1 (since the scroll is a 1st level scroll)?

Will they run (4x move)? Charge? Flank? Move through several threatening enemies to attack someone behind lines?

How do you handle armed and shielded clerics casting spells? Do they have to drop (or sheath) the weapon? Can they swap the weapon to their shield hand (and back after the spell) as a free action? We've been ignoring the semantics so far, but I think that has made the class more uber than it...

If a non-devotional cleric chooses the War Domain, do they get to choose the martial weapon they get Proficiency and Weapon Focus with? Or, do they only get Proficiency? Or, does it automatically become Longsword?

I'm sure these have been asked repeatedly before, but... Does the hospitaler gain two ADDITIONAL domains, or do they swap any existing domains for two hospitaler domains? What is this talk of hospitalers not being able to go adventuring?

Having a brain fart today... Can a Sorcerer apply metamagic to a spell he's casting from a scroll?

Never mind. Answered my own question.

Ever since my 13th level players have discovered Etherealness, a frequent offensive tactic has been to: 1. Surround the BBEG while Ethereal 2. Pop in gaining surprise 3. Annihilate the BBEG before the second round 4. Mop up the BBEG's lackey's at leisure I applaud them for coming up with a...

How far does a character fall in a round? How far does a character sink in water in a round?

PHB definitions: From the SRD: So, does a hasted character get two partial actions during a surprise round?

From the PHB: For our next campaign, I'm playing a half-orc rogue (basically, a thug) that doesn't have the Intelligence (i.e., skill points) for skills like Open Locks. Therefore, he'll be relying on the items above for such tasks. How, exactly, do these items help with opening doors and...

Does the shield spell's +7 AC count against ranged touch attacks? (Say, from a beholder's eye rays?)

I'm really confused by all the "rules" around the beholder's movement. Consider this: Speed from stat block: 5 ft., fly 20 ft. (good) Flyby Attack feat: When flying, the creature can take a move action (including a dive) and another partial action at any point during the move. The creature...

If you get multiple attacks per round, can you make multiple grapple attempts? If you are IN a grapple, can you make multiple grapple checks according to your BAB?

I know this has been asked many times before (dons Dunce cap)... Do the AOOs from Initiating a Grapple, Disarm attempts, Sunder attempts, etc., count against your AOO limit during the round? Do you always get these AOOs? Or, if two people attempt a grapple against you, you can AOO against the...

If medium-size rogues have the Heavy Mace on their weapon proficiency list, does a Large (i.e., two-handed) Heavy Mace still count? (In our next game, I'm playing a half-orc rogue, and all the light, one-handed weapons just seemed too wimpy for a brute. ;) )

What happens when a Beholder is hit with a blindness spell? a) it is blind, as per the 100% concealment rules, but can still fire its eye rays -- IF it manages the listen check and 50% miss chance. b) only one of its eye stalks, or the central eye, is disabled; but the rest can still fire away...

Total brain fart - Can an elven druid use a bow, as per their innate racial proficiencies, or are they limited to the Druid weapon list (i.e., sling)?
