Does Glitterdust (3.5) shed light? Does it require ambient light to work? These are basically the same question. To be clear, by "shed light" I mean only enough light to see the illuminated target, not enough to see by, or any other use of the light.

A couple of questions came up in our last session. I've looked for answers but nothing was clear cut to me, so I'm appealing to the wisdom of the masses. We had a PC fall (he was techincally "dying", ie less than 0 HPs) and another party member moved to stand over him to try to protect him...

Thoughts on whether the [Domain] feats from the Complete Champion are available to classes which don't have domains, e.g. a wizard? Nowhere does it state that you must have a domain, but it's heavily implied in many places in the text.

I was certain that I saw a small one-encounter pdf on Wizards.com which had kobolds (or maybe orcs) breaching a wall and attacking townsfolks, and depending where the PCs were standing they might take damage from the wall breaking, and the townsfolk all died if they took any damage. There was a...

I'm wearing a Hat of Disguise which is active (changing my appearance). My friend casts Detect Magic and looks my direction (and let's say rolls 25 on the Spellcraft check). What is seen?

Bane's area is listed in the srd as "All enemies within 50 ft." as opposed to Bless's area of, "The caster and all allies within a 50-ft. burst, centered on the caster". So is it a burst or an emanation or neither? Or more to the point, does Bane affect enemies who enter the 50ft range after...

I'm thinking of playing a mute character and want to create an item to communicate telepathically with one other creature at a time. How much? Telepathic Bond is the relevant spell. It's 5th level. Straight formula says: 5 (spell) x 9 (caster) x 2000 (continuous) x 1.5 (10/min level...

Feat suggestion. Permanently sacrifice 1 point of BAB to gain a +2 Inherent bonus to AC. Special: This feat may be taken more than once. Thoughts? Too strong? Too weak? My reason for trying to write this is that I think that AC doesn't scale nearly as easily as offense as the game...

Gaseous Form: "The subject loses supernatural abilities while in gaseous form." If I, as a vampire, choose to take Gaseous Form while I am using my Alternate Form (Su) ability, let's say I'm a wolf, do I revert to my normal humanoid form while I am Gaseous? Or I am just a Gaseous Wolf?

The description of Gaseous Form indicates that Supernatural abilities are LOST. What happens to Supernatural effects that are already in effect? Are they lost? Suppressed? Dispelled? For example, if a druid Wild Shapes into an animal, then goes gaseous, what happens?

Simple question: does Mage Armor protect against touch attacks? We have been interpretting the "force" descriptor as providing protection against touch attacks, but as I read the glossary and pgs 136 & 141 of PHB it appears that this is wrong--that any "armor" bonus is ignored. Is this chart...

How much would be a fair price for a magic item that increases a flying animal's maneuverability class by one step (eg from Average to Good)? Probably, on average, this is similar to an extra 10 feet of movement. In other words, if we gave the flier an extra 10 feet of movement they could...

3.5 How much gold to make a magically enchanted backpack that could meld back and forth into or out of my Wildshaped form at my command as a move action? standard action? As a point of reference a wilding clasp (MotW 3.0) cost 4000, but in 3.0 objects all got melded making it "worth more" to...

We are currently unhappy with the Ready action limitations, and are considering a house rule that would let you ready any type of action (free, move, standard, full). What are the possibilities for abuse in letting characters ready free actions, move actions, standard actions or full round...

Heart of Gold feat At your choice, creating magic items may cost you 1/10 their market value in gold and 1/10 their market value in XP. For example, an item with a market value of 10,000 gold would cost 1000XP and 1000 gold. Normal: 1/2 market value in gold and 1/25 value in XP (eg 5000 gold...

I realize this issue is so 6 months ago, but can anyone explain why Moon Ivy armor (from Arms & Equipment Guide) should cost 16,000 gold? I mean, it's a cool concept certainly, and has good stats (+4 AC /+6 MaxDex), but IMC we get attacked at night quite frequently. This armor doesn't even...

Sharing the XP Burden Others may share the XP cost of creation, following the formula: caster cost = normal cost/number of participants each participant's cost = 2 x normal cost/number of participants. So, the caster may cut their XP cost in half if another accepts the full XP cost, or to...

It's not clear to me whether the pale glow stays with creature(s) that were initially affected (within the 5ft burst) or whether the glow dissipates from them if/when they leave the area. Thoughts?

In brief: My character was hit with 4 Dimensional Anchors from 4 different casters. How many successful targeted Dispel Magic's will it take to let me teleport/be free from the spell(s)?
