[QUOTE="kyonu, post: 5096647, member: 88153"] Okay, as the name states. I'll get right down to it. This is about a couple character or weapon ideas I have, and I need to know if it can be done, or if I did it wrong. It may also pertain to random questions, so feel free to help if you'd like! 1) Imbuing weapons with permanent spells. In either Pathfinder or base 3.5, there are spells such as "Bestow Curse" that have a permanent affect until healed. Their range is touch, so I'd have to cast it in melee (or any other modified way to deliver touch affects.) So by this, if I empowered my weapon with the ability of "Bestow Curse", and my weapon hits the foe (Assuming Wraithstrike, ignoring armor), the weapon would have "touched" the enemy; would this cast the Bestow Curse upon him? (Assuming I empower the weapon with the Continuous/Use-activated charge.) 2) If I can, could I do this with multiple touch affects via rules for adding new spells? (Such as Contagion.) 3) Can you freeze an enemy covered in water? 4) Can you cast Hold Person on an enemy, then drown them with various under-water affects? 5) Can you imbue multiple Armor Spikes with different enchantments? (ex., Have one with +2 fire damage, have a second one with +2 cold damage) 6) Are there different types of non-inflamed oils you can create that burn hotter than generic flask oil? 7) Can you change the AOE of a spell? (ex. Grease has a 10ft square; can it be changed to a 20ft line, or a 5x5 cube?) EDIT: 8 ) To a certain point, ability damage stacks, and gets low. Many effects only bring it down to 1 point, but which abilities will put the effect down to a 0? (ex. Feeblement brings Wis and Cha down to 1, but not 0.) So far that's all I got.. Thanks a lot!
