I don't recall ever seeing that rule before, but I don't think that it would apply to animate objects. Any critter worth its salt isn't going to stand around for 5 minutes while you and your buddies all poke sticks into every corner of the room looking for it. (That is unless the monster just...

The Business Software Alliance seems to handle quite a bit of information on Internet Piracy. Their Web page is fairly obvious at http://www.bsa.org I'm quite sure that they would be happy to give you any and all information that you need for your presentation if you fire off a quick e-mail...

Ya ever seen Predator or Predator II? I've always imagined Invisibility just like the cloaking device that the Hunter uses. You really can't see it (so it still has 100%concealment) but you still know that it's there. So, IMO, you get to automatically roll Spot whenever the Invis Critter...

Why doesn't he just take levels of Monk? Is it the Alignment restriction? If so, then just relax it a bit for him. If no acceptable reason can be supplied for why monk levels can't (shouldn't) be taken, then feel free to nerf him as much as will remain fun.

A running jump has a standard DC of 10, which leads to a minimum distance jumped of 5ft. Each point over that adds +1 foot. Therefore your babarian will jump a total of (18ft normal + 1/3 for having fast movement) 24ft. (conveniently also his maximum based on height) The high point of a running...

The experience chart falls under the category of creating or advancing characters, which is a big no-no under the d20STL. So that's why the chart was excluded from the SRD. As for some of the monsters not being included in the SRD, what's the big deal. So Wizards decided to hold back some of...

Of course, the pricing of used Dorjes is a lot more complex. With the Psi feat of Master Dorje available, the usefulness of a Dorje with one charge is a lot more than 1/50th of the price of that same Dorje when it's full. The formula that I use for those is 1/2 market price + 1/100th of...

<Attempting to hijack thread> What are everyone's thoughts on MotW? IMO, it is the best of the splatbooks. It actually provided useful information instead of the crapfest of some of the other splatbooks *cough*DotF*cough*.

The HD cap on animal companions is only equal to the Druid's level if he plans on traveling, though. Also, Awaken changes the animal's Int to 3d6, it doesn't add 3d6 to the animal's Int. According to MotW, the Awakened animal can continue to be the Druid's AC, even if it (temporarily) has...

Creatures of the "Animal" type are too dumb (Int below 3) to gain levels, and therefore never gain XP. Under normal circumstances (ie. unless it gets Awakened, bonded as an AC...) the animal will never gain HD in any way, not even through normal critter HD advancement (not that riding dogs have...

A one charge per day Alarm bell (4th level).

Actually they realized later on that that was really stupid (or maybe it actually was just freakin huge typo) and changed it. The Exp award increases based on the CR. The CR of a monster advanced by class levels is just the original CR + the number of PC levels (or level -1 if any of the...

No, he didn't. I'm trying to find out what the bonus type is. (ie. Resistance, enhancement, Luck, unnamed, dodge...)

Sorry about any confusion, I listed the price of a Cloak of Resistance +2 in order to give a reference starting point that people wouldn't have to look up. I fully realize that it give a resistance bonus to all three save types. Just dividing the price of a Cloak of Resistance by 3 to get the...

One of my players wants a non-standard magic item. He has the appropriate feat, so he doesn't have to worry about contracting a mage to make it for him. The problem, however is what the price should be. He (desperately) wants his character to have a cloak of Willpower. He doesn't care about...

Anything with an Int of 3+ can advance using class levels.

I think you might be a little bit backwards there. IMO, they instituted the 4 levels worth of skills at first level across the board so that characters could choose a set of skills to continually have maxxed out at every level. The reasoning as to why they instituted skills like that was so...

Sorry, I left out the following phrase: And that's real likely to happen.:o

Actually, the Sage clarified a while back that a grappled character could retrieve a stowed item (including a weapon, I would assume) by winning a grapple check. Interesting. So, where in any of the core books does it explain that the Acid and Crushing damage being dealt to a swallowed...

Monk/Rogue Being able to sneak attack your opponent several turns in a row while they sit there hoping for a successful save is fun.
