    Help finding an open content monster

    I believe they are from MM2. They are monstrous humanoids with a natural ability to use Command (per the spell) and a limited use of Greater Command. I’m looking for an open content monster that is humanoid and has the ability to make others do their whims. I believe they are CR 6.

    Help finding an open content monster

    I’m looking for a replacement for Witchknives in a module I’m working on – they play the heavies (masters of a slaver ring), and I need an open content monster to take their place. Any ideas?

    Eldritch Sorcery

    A problem with the book This book has a major power balance problem. The earthen blast spell mentioned in the review is a major problem: it duplicates burning hands spell with the additional ability to knock down the targets - and is untyped damage (a big boost, as fire resistance is the most...

    Aberration feats

    Hello B U M P ! The squeezing through tight spots normally not possible for a creature per X-Files bad guy (mr tomes, I think), the remake of salems lot (vamp squeezed partially through an air vent). Not super exciting - but kinda spooky/neat. B:]B

    Aberration feats

    Hey folks - I'm looking for new aberration feats! Introduced in Lords of Madness, they offer some rather neat potential. One I was thinking about is Cartilage Frame - it allows you to squeeze through an area as if you were 2 sizes smaller then normal. You are still squeezing through spots...

    Raining Down Flammable Oil

    The room is rather large (large enough for a wagon w horses), and the cost to have that much lantern oil for a burn is too high to be used consistently. The setup is a pair of winches suspend barrels of oils, with ropes to pull over the desired spot. The men above hustle it over their target...

    Raining Down Flammable Oil

    Ok, I'm writing out a series of encounters, and there is a possibility of some real nastiness coming down on the players. I would think this encounter supremely avoidable, but you know players... they get into the darndest predicaments! The possible situation: they walk through an open...

    Half-Minotaur Medusa?

    It has to be said; I tried not to, but... Those stoner chicks will sleep with anyone! For all those involved, my apologies! I feel so dirty! B:eek:B

    Improved Skeletal Servant

    I think I found a solution. I'm going to upgrade him into a skeleton from the eberon book, the intelligent skeleton. Thus, he gains feats, 2 hd, and skill points. I'll have to check, I think they advance by level - but the servant just gains HD, natural AC, STR, and DEX. I thought about...

    Necromancer: which two schools to give up?

    Which books are allowed - this helps determine how critical a school is. The more books that are open, the less critical the school choice (more sources, more overlap). B:]B

    Necromancer: which two schools to give up?

    Well, it depends on the sort of necro you wish to be. If you plan to have a bunch of rotting meat shields defend you, I'd keep conjuration (summon a critter to give both flanking) and illusion to supliment conjuration (with things appearing, hard to determine what is real). Necro gives you the...

    Improved Skeletal Servant

    Ahh, I see were you are going. These are the other options for a necromancer specialist (per unearthed arcana). I'm specifically looking to improve my servent, not myself. A current consideration is tweaking the Spellwarped template to make the Spellwarped Undead. STR, CON, INT not increased...

    Improved Skeletal Servant

    I've equiped mine with a +1 b-sword, +1 lrg shield, and +1 chain shirt. He also wears my sun-rods on a neck thong. So, any suggestions for what a feat should do for this poor fellow? B:]B

    Improved Skeletal Servant

    Yep, I'm using the Skeletal Minion variant from UA - cool way to give your necro flavor! I'm unsure of what you meant by '3rd Option (enhanced Undead)'...? I do not have any of the undeadcrafter feats (focused on the meta-necro spells from the book). Some options I've thought of... 1) make it...

    Improved Skeletal Servant

    I have a PC necromancer with a skeletal servant instead of a familiar. What I'd like to do is buff him up with a feat - but no such feat exists. What would you think a feat should do, given the ability of improved familiar over a familiar, and that the skeletal servant is an alternative to a...

    Wimp, Munchkin, or Ok? Azrael

    What problem touch spells are there for arcane casters? It seems the bulk of the abusable spells are divine. I would really like to keep this feat (or a variation of it), and if I can identify specific areas, perhaps I can ‘nerf it’ enough to keep it balanced. My initial view of this feat is...

    Wimp, Munchkin, or Ok? Azrael

    Well - the worst this means is using an 8th level spell, you get a good use out of a(Compulsion) [Mind-Affecting] spell. At 20th level, with 2 levels monk, you will have +10 base attack, for 2 attacks, one at -5. Not too powered for a feat. The real broken examples all seem to use cleric...
