Give them a bonus magic item for creating a backstory with in-game implications. Something sketchy and half-assed, give them a potion or something. Somebody writes up a page of great notes, give them a nice piece of magic armor. Somebody creates a ten-page backstory complete with a map of...

Since the arm is an item, a specifically-targeted Disintegrate spell might work. Since it's magical, Disjunction.

I like TikkchikFenTikktikk's suggestion. If you decide to decide yourself: The elves more or less lied to the party. What actually happened was, the humans had settled in the area first when the elves decided that they weren't going to let any upstart humans get a foothold in the elvish lands...

Or polymorph to a creature with SR as an intrinsic. So the answer to your question is basically "yes, lots of ways". :)

Oh, and Spell Resistance, via spell, magic item, armor, etc.

Anti-magic field.

Those people have a remedy, known as "not buying the game".

In order to sue in civil court, you must show that the plaintiffs have damaged or harmed you in some way. "I don't like what these people have done with their own intellectual property" is so far from being judiciable damage that it isn't even funny. Now, if WOTC sends thugs over to your house...

Barbarian.

It sounds like a slightly unbalanced fight - except for the fact that you had a perfectly good strategy which would win, but chose not to use it. So it wasn't unbalanced, it was you choosing to play suboptimally. Good roleplaying if winning through a charm is out of character, here's some bonus...

Sounds like you've grown soft, probably from affection for your players. Penny Arcade! - The Old Ways

World balance. Balor will not limit their behavior on the mortal plane, while Solars will - so if the two have equivalent powers, the infernal forces will run wild. Which might be a fun campaign, briefly... Shorter answer: players usually fight Balor, not Solars, and if Balors had 20 cleric...

Two theories: Theory One In the Olden Days, the spell text was minimal to non-existent, and undoubtedly a lot of solve-the-mystery or tracking-based adventures would have been derailed if the 1st level druid could interrogate the local underbrush. The addition of the fluff text which rules on...

No, it's not overpowered. Pretty mild, actually.

You resolve all of this with roleplaying, which you can do whatever system you're in. The system is for resolving combat, establishing economic ground rules, providing consistent monster stats, and other crunchy nitty-gritty stuff. The roleplaying part uses the rules modules that come...

Improved Unarmed Strike does not have any prerequisites.

If everything RPG-related you do isn't "just for fun", you're doing it wrong. ;)

Whichever conditions or abilities the Dominating creature chooses and knows about. For #3, the dominating creature decides, if it knows of the choice. Domination does not provide any special knowledge of the PC's abilities. If the mind flayer has never seen the PC before and doesn't have any...

No. Not only what Frank said about the explicit "no harm to the subject" text, but also you're assuming that there's a clear spot/path at the nostrils. It doesn't say that; rather, it says that the cocoon passes air so the subject can breath. The only thing that I might waver on as your DM is...
