    The Art of Survival.

    These are useful tricks and methods for surviving a world and I welcome them because I want every advantage I can get. But what I'm really looking for is how I should be thinking when dealing with problems. A character's alignment and personality might demand that they protect the village from...

    The Art of Survival.

    I'm playing in a Dungeon and Dragons game and am looking to improve my character's chances of survival. At first I considered asking for tricks or combinations of actions which would allow them to survive a wide range of possible dangers but now believe this is secondary to how I approach...

    Round Robin Method of Godly Ascension: Would it work?

    Could a group whose objective is to find a way for everyone alive to become immortal, have learned that demigod/desses are immortal, and have discovered that it takes only a few hundred people believing you to be a god/dess to achieve this state use a round robin (Revolving turn-based method.)...

    Penniless Crafting: Does it exist?

    I was watching a television show last night which had an immortal stranded on a planet with no way to get off and it made me wonder if an Artificer would be able to eventually build a ship to get off with. But then I remembered that they have to pay gold to build anything. So I wondered if...

    Oops, I might of uh, made a small mistake.

    How bad would it be if someone created two continuously connected portals, sent one into deep space, and dropped the other into the ocean? How difficult would it be to do? Do most of the realm worlds even have deep space?

    D&D 3E/3.5 Virtual Feats on Magical Items 3.5

    Something to consider. ...Not allowing in your game. Earlier I realized a way to make a cellphone using magic from low level spells. It used a miniature portal inside a gem with a wand of permanent Message on target with a constant area effect. The wand fires through the portal at the...

    +? to Skill magic items. Does a method exist?

    My reasoning that the Wish spell would give ranks in a skill is based upon it's effects upon the ability "Inteligence." I'm not certain about this next bit, but here's what I've been going by so far. If you use Wish to add a +5 to Strength then it's as if you gained a permanent buff of +5 that...

    +? to Skill magic items. Does a method exist?

    Does a trainer allow you to gain ranks in skills outside of leveling? Even in ones where you had no previous ranks? Then the only way I can see Wish not giving ranks in a skill, inherent or otherwise is if the claim is that while Wish does add to abilities, which have more wide ranging effects...

    Some Spell combinations and Spell uses. What do you think of them?

    I'm intending to add a number of permanents to the magic items I create and am curious if I'm pushing what they can do too far. They're based on: Self Maintenance Universal Usage Directory of Information Self Maintenance would probably be these spells made permanent: Wizard Level 0: Mend (To...

    +? to Skill magic items. Does a method exist?

    Except in my case an item with +1 to ten different skills isn't really to give a bonus to an existing skill. Instead it's to gain access to a skill in which I have no ranks whatsoever. However the requirement...excuse me, apparent requirement that the crafter have at least the same skill rank...

    +? to Skill magic items. Does a method exist?

    It says it can not exceed +5 on an ability score. Granted, it would take an ability score of +10 to grant +5 to a skill score, but the idea that a single wish is limited in adding an inherent bonus to a skill score in the same manner it is in doing so for an ability score seems... Well it seems...

    +? to Skill magic items. Does a method exist?

    Creating magic items that give bonuses to skills. Does anyone know if there are any actual rules about it? I came across this on "Wizards of the Coast" "Dungeons and Dragons" " Rules of the game" "Making magic items, Part 7:" It seems to say that +1 to ? skill would be: (1x1)x100=100gp With a...

    Castles are worthless against armies with mages?

    Why not just teleport over the target with a shrunken mountaintop, teleport away, then as it nears the target revoke the shrinking? Wouldn't the increased size and weight reduce the effectiveness of Feather fall? If they used a force teleport spell the boulder or mountaintop could be protected...

    Castles are worthless against armies with mages?

    You have a castle with thick walls, strong gates, and many many fiendish traps. The army approaches and uses mountains they've shrunken to fit in catapults to flatten you with a single volley. Do the Dwarves and Drow have it right? Is it best to have your fortifications deep underground to...

    Feat: Craft Magic Castle. Does something similar exist?

    I'm interested in the make magic item feats but have been looking in particular for "Craft Magic Castle." Nothing is coming up. Should I be looking for Craft Magic Hut or House? I know, I know, no such thing right? But do you have any suggestions on how such a thing would be done? Craft...

    Was the Psychic, not Psionic class removed?

    Oh. Hmmm. I have been worried that the classes abilities were over powered. All abilities are unlimited use except for the "strain" effect it causes which is non-lethal hp damage. Varies per skill. They have a skill which allows them to disarm others using teleport item and the ability after...

    Was the Psychic, not Psionic class removed?

    Sorry, I don't know what you mean. This is only the second... time I've played D&D with a group? At least I think it's the second time. And I thought official meant approved by the makers of D&D. There are multiple official D&D's? And the Psychic class would be allowed in Greyhawk?

    Was the Psychic, not Psionic class removed?

    No, just asking if I could use the class or abilities in an official campaign. And it looks like I couldn't. Darn.

    Was the Psychic, not Psionic class removed?

    Is this character class still in official play or was it removed? Review of The Psychic's Handbook - RPGnet d20 I want to use it because of this skill: http://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Life_Extension_(DnD_Skill) But I'd also like to have a character who could join official games and the difficulty...

    Guild of Mordenkainen Nukers.

    3.5 We're only level two but I've been intending to make magic items and after hearing about this spell I went looking for methods to evade or block it. That led me to the previous thread, it's method for making users of the spell sorry, and finally brought up this way to get around that...
