    Inane cantrip question:

    A nice solution to this would be to replace the 0th level Cure spell with one that was on the wizards.com website quite some time ago. I believe it was caleld Styptic or something similar. It stopped bleeding wounds and stabilised dying characters but didn't actually restore hp. It also cured...

    How much gold do you have?

    1gp and 7sp. Mind you, I'm only level 1...

    Using paladin mount as an activation criteria?

    OK, this argument has been going on in our house for a while now. We were having a discussion about magical items, and got to talking about magical items that were limited to certain classes; and from there, ways to limit items to characters of a specific level within a class. We all admit that...

    Need help designing this lich BBEG!

    Uh, what's to stop you just arbitarily saying he's got some special, unique feats and/or magic items that mean he's not subject to ASF? Why is there such a desperate need to only use rules that have been published? Can a DM not invent crazy new things for his unique epic supervillain? Offhand...

    Bizarro World History 101: Monster Origins

    Wow, I've just realised soemthing weird; the plot of the Baldur's Gate CRPG started with a group of kobolds tainting iron in the Nashkel mines so it became weak and brittle...

    Sunder as a Melee attack

    Point taken. *head explodes*

    Sunder as a Melee attack

    Hmm. Letter of the rules it may be, but doesn't it just seem really weird and daft? I mean, surely disarming is virtually identical to sundering anyway - if anything, disarming is slightly harder than just whacking your opponent's weapon; what's so specific about sundering that means you can't...

    Sunder as a Melee attack

    OK, so do I have this right? By your definitions: A character with, say a BAB 15/10/5 cannot use a full round action to (for example) go "attack sunder attack", but *can* use it to "attack disarm attack"? (as an aside, you *can* mix ranged and melee attacks as part of a full attack, if you...

    d20 that should have been core

    What should have been core? Bullywugs! :p

    Weapon Finesse and Touch Spells

    Ah, the reason I ask is because AFAIK you *can* sneak attack with spells - so for instance, a sneak attack Shocking Grasp will deal extra d6's of electrical damage... I think? So I reasoned maybe Weapon Spec would just add +2 electrical damage. Eh, not that the situation would ever come up...

    Weapon Finesse and Touch Spells

    This has me thinking of a somewhat related question. Is it possible to use Weapon Focus with a touch attack? Would "Weapon Focus: Unarmed Strike" cover both actual unarmed strikes *and* touch attacks? Or would I specifically need "Weapon Focus: Touch Attacks"? Hey, come to think of it, what...

    Abusing Cloudkill

    Nicely done. Who says you can't use physics to describe magic? Next question: how many Shocking Grasp spells would it take to provide the required voltage to work a hairdryer? :D

    Help me find this adventure!

    I'm looking for an adventure for Level 1 characters that I ran quite a few years ago... (my first ever time as a D&D DM, in fact) It involved a Gnome who decides to "improve" various animals using magic, and starts with the adventurers finding a teleporting fish with a note pinned to it. It...

    Best 5th party member?

    A bard. Come on! You've got the classic four man setup there! Every bone in my body would rebel against me if I didn't vote for the bard as the fifth member! And he has to be a Half-Elf! :)

    Merged Avatars and Signatures thread

    I'm always a tad amused by people who's sigs are regularly twice the length of their post, but it doesn't really bother me too much. To be honest I have never really looked at anyone's posts here and thought "wow, that sig's ridiculous"... so I'm on the fence for this one.
