    Pathfinder 1E Half-Orc pass as Orc?

    You don't need a feat. As a half-orc, you have both the human and orc subtype and so you qualify for the scarred with doctor.

    Points for Style

    style is the character, not the class.

    D&D 5E Monsters as PCs

    I can see the attraction of offering just about all monsters as playable characters... but as a DM, I dont usually want to deal with it. A party consisting of well-described races like elves, dwarves and halflings is fine... but what about a half-tarrasque, or a purple jelly PC? no thank you...

    High Elves Vs. Kaiju

    Ability damage is the way to go. With a 13 dex, 6 int, and 16 wis, all these stats can be the target. Int is easiest. What you need is the following: -rope trick, so you can prepare and set up an ambush. It's extraplanar, so defeats empathic senses. What the hell... make it a magnificent...

    Pathfinder 1E Double weapon and the Returning weapon property

    a magic melee weapon with throwing, but without returning? That's just silly. PC: Hello Mr. BBEG, you don't seem to have enough weapons. Here's a two-handed sword! BBEG: Why thank you, must be off now to sell this. *BAMF*

    non-combat swamp encounters

    since you got lightning sands (quicksand), and aren't asking about ROUS's, you're just missing the flame spurts (jets of flame).

    Special reward for a Dwarven Fighter Smith?

    how about a +1 hammer that, when used to craft a magic weapon or armour, provides a number of experience to be used for crafting? Nothing spectacular as a weapon, but still useful as a backup, and useful for a long time for a crafting PC.

    Pathfinder 1E How much time between Level 3 and Level 15?

    I wouldn't worry much about the time, but I would put the whole 15th level campaign in a parallel universe. You can branch it off from the "original" universe at any time before 15th lvl, although I'd branch it off either at 3rd level, or even before that with some slight differences in the...

    Pathfinder 1E Which skill for performing an autopsy?

    Speaking as a DM, I love it when players try stuff like this. It gives great hooks to discover stuff about monsters, and the type of research also gives you ample time to prepare. No player will expect an immediate answer. This fact will help you with the DC, since the DM may want you to find...

    Pathfinder 1E Which skill for performing an autopsy?

    I wouldnt give a penalty of 8 to survival checks. Knowing which organ is which is quite handy to know which ones you can eat, and although not very fashionable at the moment, eating organ meat is quite normal.

    Pathfinder 1E 1st level starting-out equipment/gear/items - what's on your list?

    I'd like to nominate the waterskin as an essential. It holds liquids of many types, including oil, (holy) water or ink. They can also be inflated to serve as flotation devices, allowing even your heavily armoured dwarven warrior to swim the river without drowning. Finally, since they are made of...

    Pathfinder 1E I need more ways to Speak With Plants

    How intelligent is this plant? Does it speak a language, but simply lacks the bodyparts to speak? If this is the case, a telepathic bond spell would work and lasts 10 times as long as a speak with plants spell. Also, telepathic bond can be made permanent. A helm of telepathy also allows...

    Pathfinder 1E How would you defend an airship?

    install endless fuel rocket engines, they only cost 9k gold each. They can also double as fire extinguishers. Where do I find these weird items? well... it's just a decanter of endless water. At geyser setting they provide a decent amount of thrust.

    Question - Lycanthropy and Knowledge check

    I wouldnt give this a DC at all. People walking around at night without memories (or claiming not to have memories) could be anything: sleepwalking, being switched with a doppelganger (and ofcourse lying about the memory loss), a non-malevolent entity reading their minds at night abducting them...

    Pathfinder 1E Potion bottles....Skinny or Flask shaped?

    different shapes and materials can be useful. A CLW potion for an adventurer needs to be in a durable container that won't easily break and can be easily and quickly handled, like a steel test tube. A CLW potion intended to be used in a hospital-type setting needs less durability, and there's...

    Considering a Druid/Thurmaturgist, I just need that spell...

    entirely by RAW, there is a simpler and less obscure method to be able to cast a 4th level spell. Any spell up to 5th level. A simple ring of spellstoring would do the trick, by RAW they allow the wearer to cast the spell stored. Just ask someone else to cast lesser planar ally into it...

    Considering a Druid/Thurmaturgist, I just need that spell...

    why not rewrite the prestige class? change entry requirements to summon nature's ally IV (same level as lesser planar ally), change class skills a bit by dropping knowledge(planes) and adding knowledge (nature), change first level benefit (need to think about that one.. +1 hp/level maybe?)...

    What is the most damaging one shot spell?

    instead of black lotus extract, I'd create one of the inhaled poisons. Although the damage per target is lower, a single dose of inhaled poison affects a 10ft cube, allowing you to hit more targets per dose (depending on size of the victims). This magnifies the possible damage on medium...

    The Archivist;- from where else can he/she learn new spells?

    clerics may have access to each and every spell... but that does not mean they have the knowledge of its existence. A god of air may grant its waterbreathing clerics (sea-elves maybe?) an air-breathing spell, but a dry land cleric may not even know of the existence of this spell, if only because...

    spells that affect d100 rolls?

    hmm... if for a single d100 roll, I'd rule it in about the same category as an automatic hit for a creature, which can be done with limited wish in 3.5.
