3.5 SRD says standing from prone does provoke. As for the question from TracerBullet42, I would allow the AoO [with 50% miss of course] only if the creature had successfully pinpointed the wizards location (scent or otherwise).

Oh my GOD. I just had the most amazing flashback...

Only if you have combat reflexes. Otherwise your expected damage is the same against both. Normal attack (at 50%) = 2.25 plus one AoO (at 50%) = 2.25 gives 4.5

WOW - how do you guys do this... Another great piece of work. Feel free to order up some antacid after this one. I hope you had as much fun as Miranda did working on hers. The PC's haven't gotten to him yet, but when they do I will be sure and let you all know how the encounter goes. I...

Just out of curiosity and if you don't mind saying, what or who is it that is "immune to magic"?

Sorry CapnZapp must have been posting at the same time I was. In any case, I would like to change my position to UNDECIDED based upon his/her post. Since each skill is listed as giving the +2 bonus, I would say there is a clear conflict in these two rules statements. However, I am leaning to...

As nhl_1997 pointed out, Synergy: If you have 5 or more ranks in Bluff, Knowledge (nobility and royalty), or Sense Motive, you get a +2 bonus on Diplomacy checks. Based on this I would have to say the answer to your question is yes. Your player is wrong because of the "OR" in the sentence...

Altamont Ravenard, Thank you. If you pronounce it that way, then I am satisfied that this is correct. Also note the pronunciation given below: http://www.miriamwebster.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?book=Dictionary&va=coup+de+grace

O.K. Point taken. How about this one. I think it is more credible. http://www.miriamwebster.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?book=Dictionary&va=judgement

Actually in the silly, constantly changing English language, both spellings are accepted. http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=judgment

I am no language expert, but I thought that this saying is French for "stroke of mercy". Coup = stroke or blow de = of grace = mercy If this is the case, then the French word for mercy is not pronounced with the silent -ce (again I am not an expert). Jeff, You sound like you know more about...

I would again like to thank Miranda for the excellent monster art work (especially since she doesn't spend her time working on monsters). I would also like to invite any others to showcase their talent. Although Miranda's fine drawing may bias you, try and read the description and let your...

What if the spell caster in question has an enemy that can take an AoO for casting the spell? In this case I think the spell casters AC is simply decreased by 4 Assuming the spell is cast defensively while prone, would the concentration check then be increased? In this case I might increase the...

This is great (as I knew it would be). I especially like the heat effect. I really don't know how all of you artists get your talent, but I wish I had just some of it.
