Clever custom spell I've seen no official spell of feat that can do it (though I don't have magic of Faerun). One of my players has come up with a strange spell that might fit the bill though. He calls it dispell trick. Basically its a 3rd level spell that always counts as the highest level...

I'm trying to figure out if that doesn't work. And aside from direct divine intervention I don't see why not. And I don't know if a diety could do it (not familiar with the rules) Edit: elaboration

Sir whiskers, True RESurection is restricted by age. Its True REINcarnation, the Druid spell, that isn't.

doktorstick: Thats one thing I had in mind, but kings tend to be powerhungry, and they'd have to start all over in the afterlife. Other than that, it should work. Cutty, interesting...very interesting... Fba, I am trying to use existing official rules, just part of my thought experiment...

Femerus, you missed the point of my question really. I know I can tweak the rules, create a house rule, rule 0 it, create plot devices etc, etc, etc. I'm asking out of curiosity, not whining about my lack of skill at rules lawyering. And I figured it be faster, more diverse, and more...

disentegrating a stoned individual constitutes killing them. It releases the soul and true ressurection can bring them back to life. So we've got a sphere of annihalation, barghest, and hide & hope schemes. I figured out another, use a suggestion saying, "you really want to worship the lady...

hmmm, good stuff. Artifact level, but good stuff. Anybody figure a way to do so without an artifact though? I'm wracking my brain on this one.

As for disintegrating someone and scatterng the ashes true ressurection shoots holes in that theory. Why? because true res doesn't require the body, only that the person died withing 10yrs per caster level and wants to return. As for hiding, I can't think of why wish/miracle won't bring the...

as for ruling as a badger...nice image. But polymorph other will solve that problem right quick. As for the spheres, you've got dieties that can raise, and its an artifact. I can't imagine most assassin's carrying one around. Since you can't kill someone (at least easily so far) it makes...

jgbrowning: I assume you mean a plane that has time go faster..thus he ages faster. But the druids reincarnation foils that, old age isn't proof against it. The spell creates a new young body for the soul. Fba...maybe...very carefully worded. but so can the other "counter" wish. Caliban...

I've been thinking, and I can't find a way to permanently and irrevocably kill a high level character (who has friends) in D&D using official rules alone. Now, I can construct plenty of in game plot reasons, like the churches are bowing to certain factions, or internal politics for example...

just goes to show you how much of an indoor culture we are. I can tell time quite accurately when I spend a while outdoors (assuming I knew the time when I went out). If I get outside at about 1pm and puddle about doing stuff for a while I can look at the sky and my surroundings and get to...

In the case of a poison spell: +2 to resist the spell. If the suceed, no further effects. If they fail and the poison takes hold they get a +2 to resisting the effects of the poison (like secondary constitution damage for instance). The reason [bonus] was dropped: probably because it is...

don't be afraid to challenge your PC's, especially at what, 12th level? Remember, similarly leveled opponents are proffessionals. They are good at what they do, and they use all the same dirty little tricks. They are going to try to engage mages in melee, or disrupt thier spells any way...

Paul, Each class has a spell list in the PHB they can choose from. This list is directly before the spell descriptions where it tells you what the spell does, how it looks, how it works etc. There are Seperate spell lists for a bard, ranger, druid, paladin, cleric, and the arcanes (sorcerer's...
