It's pretty clear that find the path doesn't allow you to define destinations in reference to creatures or objects that may be found there. But what about defining a destination by an effect present there? For example, let's say there is a magical storm that stays in a certain fixed position...

Does the area of effect for control winds move with the caster? Here's the spell, for reference: The case for moving with the caster is based on the first sentence of the text: "You alter wind force in the area surrounding you." Arguably, if you move, so does the area surrounding you. Given...

Has anyone here had a chance to playtest any of the PrCs from Nyambe? There are some very interesting concepts there, but I'm worried about balance. I'm thinking in particular of the Inyanga Yensimbi, who gets fighter BAB, two good saves, d8, 4 skill points, a number of nice abilities including...
