Dimension Door?

The setting is mostly a vast forest. Typical enemies include drow, dragons, humanoids, giants, and other forest-dwelling beasts. Plus possibly devils. A little city/cave adventuring is also included. My fellow party members are a black bear Rgr8 and a human Sor8 (the joys of Reincarnate). I'm...

I'm not very firm with Ploymorph effects in general. What are good choices for a pixie Druid 7 with access to Polymorph Self (CL8), using only PHB, MM, DMG 3.0? BTW, in this campaign, all casters have Natural Spell.

Actually, I think that's wrong. A dead person is an object. Objects are immune to anything requiring a fortitude save. So the negative level would just dissipate.

If you have Prone Combat (feat), you can fight without penalties while prone.

A few counters Freedom of Movement (spell or item). Being a Cleric with the Travel domain. Counterspelling. Bardic Countersong (On second thought, this one doesn't help).

Or you could happen to be a Psion...

Half-Elemental (Air) Though not exactly lightning, you may want to have a look at the various Half-Elemental templates in Manual of the Planes.

That's exactly the right figure. After all, the PCs are a different type. Though, depending on the coolness factor, I might apply no penalty at all.

Tonight, I'm starting with a new character in the Forgotten Realms. Probably at 3rd level, 32pt-buy. Allowed sources are PHB, DMG, PGTF, Complete Series. I'm planning on a fighter/cleric type, either human or dwarf. Spiked Chain + Improved Trip. Never played or created one. Any advice for good...

Well, you can always prepare them as 1st-level spells...

As said already: Disguise Just maximize your Disguise bonus :) - At least one level in a class with Disguise as class skill. - Maximum ranks. - An item which grants a big bonus on Disguise, like +20 or +30. - High Charisma. - An item which enhances Charisma. - A masterwork disguise kit.

Actually, just the Base Attack is wrong. A 2-HD construct has a BAB of +1 (as a 2nd-level cleric). All other numbers are correct.

You've answered your own question ;) So yes, bloodline levels do count for feats and ability increases.

Extra Slot gives always exactly one extra slot. A heightened spellcasting attribute (via Spellcasting Prodigy or otherwise) gives two or three extra slots. Example: Cha 20 raised to Cha 22 = +1 2nd-level spell and +1 6th-level spell; Cha 26 raised to Cha 28 = +1 1st-level spell, +1 5th-level...

CR, XP, EL and one Character The CR (Challenge Rating) of the monster is still the same. The XP for defeating the monster are still based on the CR and still split among the characters. In this case: One character gets all XP. The EL (Encounter Level) of an encounter with a single creature is...

Using Sending instead of Commune seems like a cheesy way to a) avoid the 100 XP cost and b) get a better effect. Since you are a 14th level wizard, you could easily use Limited Wish to emulate a Commune or Divination spell. Another option (and comparable spell for the desired effect) is Contact...

The Githzerai actually have a Psionic Feat: Inertial Armor. The PsiHB, pg. 139 "Psionic Creature" does not clearly state whether the creature has unlimited power points or does not need power points. The example of the Githzerai suggests option #1: every creature with a "psionic" special...

Disintegrate (Fort +10). ...I hate the spell.

IMO, you count the monster HD separately from the class HD when determining feats and ability increases. For example, a Trumpet Archon (Outsider, 12 HD) has 4 feats, for 1st, 4th, 8th and 12th "level". If this archon would gain three class levels, the archon can choose one feat; upon gaining...
