    Improved Grab Question

    Ok that makes sense. I checked the grapple rules and the 3rd step is "Hold" so I guess the ambiguous wording in this case is appropriate as it refers to both conditions. Both grapples (either the one hand held or the full on grapple) are the same except for the special conditions of the one...

    Improved Grab Question

    The important part of the above passage is that the creature has two options: A) Grapple as normal - this is the foggy part B) Hold. Everything following that or statement is in reference to the hold, not to a "normal" grapple.

    Improved Grab Question

    Ok, but what about how it says that you can use a natural weapon when grappling at a -4? While Grappling: "You can make an attack with an unarmed strike, natural weapon, or light weapon against another character you are grappling. You take a -4 penalty on such attacks" That's where it get's...

    Improved Grab Question

    Just trying to organize combat rounds for Brown Bear with improved grab and want to see if I have this right. If the first claw hits and initiates a grapple successfully, what happens with the second claw? I know the bear can attack with it at a -4, but if it hits does it then initiate a...

    Currently I am playing a Bard - 4th / Wizard - 5th / Loremaster - 6th with practiced spell caster. I know everything. It drives my DM nuts, but in a good way.

    Feat choice

    Practiced Spellcaster - CDiv or CArc - Very valuable for multiclassed spellcasters. Basically you get the 3 levels from priest added back onto your Arcane spells.

    Familiar Hit Points

    Ah yes at level 3 I have 12 hit points then 4 I have 16... But let's say at level 4 an amulet of health +2 - well my HP's go to 20, do my familiar's go to 10? Also, for the sake of argument and not going by any errata or anything else that's out there for Polymorph, let's say that you DO gain...

    Familiar Hit Points

    According to what I read in the SRD, the familiar has one-half the master’s total hit points (not including temporary hit points). What I want to know is what is considered temportary hit points. Are hit points gained through consitution gain through polymorphing considered temporary? I know...

    Not sure where to put this....d20 Modern PS Intro

    Throughout the upheaval and change one place remained neutral - Sigil. Untouched by conflict, yet completely changed by it the City of Doors continues on as it has for millennia. As world after world fell the portals to Sigil stayed open. The Lady of Pain holds unyielding sway over this...

    Not sure where to put this....d20 Modern PS Intro

    As amazing and unimaginable as all this sounds, it is nothing when compared to what happened in the months and years after these realms were reconnected. The first realms were discovered shortly after the reconnect by Githyanki travelers in their continual search for Gith. Quickly word of these...

    Not sure where to put this....d20 Modern PS Intro

    That was over 500 years ago. The multiverse still has not recovered from that day. In the months that followed this event several facts became apparent as to the state of things before the “Reconnection”. There were many many more crystal spheres than originally thought. Because they had...

    Not sure where to put this....d20 Modern PS Intro

    This is the introduction I am working on for a campaign I am planning to run, basically a Planescape d20 Modern, starting with information for the players on where PS left off. Just looking for a little feedback, thanks. "My constellation (is like an animal which) reclines in its den in...

    Polymorph Ideas?

    I like the hydra idea, it's just a little slow for the campaign we are in (paladin is very movement oriented). However, in a tight situation it could be devastating - charge and 12 attacks? Ouch.....

    Polymorph Ideas?

    I have two player types that I have been casting polymorph on - a fighter and a pally's mount. I have been morphing the fighter into either A) A Treant or B) a Fire Giant and the mount into A) A Dire Bear or B) a Griffin. I'm looking for some new ideas as these are getting played out. Any...

    "Saving" feats

    Or you could look at it as you are training to use the feat you are gaining the pre-req's. By training to use the feat you can't actually do it, but are practicing the concepts that it will take to perform the feat once you are ready. I think it conceptually makes less sense if you take say...
