    Freshflesh Zombie

    Something Familiar Here This reminds me alot of the flesh golem. Perhaps your template should be a golem rather than an undead? Just an idea.

    L9 right for this custom spell?

    For starters definitely put a fort save on the spell. Then make it effect lowest hit dice creatures first. Lastly, make the spell over a limited area, say 30ft radius. That tones it done quite a bit, but the spell should probably still be 9th level due to the shere capacity to knock out enemies.

    Thoughts on Skills

    This is a good consideration. I've always been frustrated with low Int characters who can't do anything skill-wise. This should also allow characters to have a wider variety of skills rather than two or three that they max out (Fighters). You might want to consider changing the list of class...

    Small, cuddly, and explosive (comments appreciated)

    Bonus points. The design for the poepoe was partially modeled off of the tribble.

    Small, cuddly, and explosive (comments appreciated)

    I did consider making this a situation where the creature only exploded when cornered, but thought that would give too much control to the creature over that ability. Currently I'm using the little guys as random summons on a cursed weapon being carried by one of the members in my gaming group...

    Magic Staves got the shaft.

    Does this mean that if I were palying an archaic mage and took another's staff that I gain all the spells contained by that staff, much like stealing another wizard's spellbook? Unlimited spell storage... I wonder how many spells a staff would have if it had been infused for 10 years by a high...

    Small, cuddly, and explosive (comments appreciated)

    This is a creature design that I've started using in my games, something to throw adventurers off from the standard clash of monster and hero. I'm not sure what the challenge rating should be on this, and I'd appreciate any comments. PoePoe Tiny Magical Beast Hit Dice: 1d4+1 (3hp) Initiative...

    Looking for input on a new spell-

    Fight fire with fire It's going to be really strange seeing a fire elemental drop under a fireball. You might want to consider making natural immunities like that be unaffected by the spell. As for the spell itself, consider the following. Weaken vs. Element Level: Clr 3, Drd 3, Rgr 2...

    Whips

    Here's an idea on a few new weapons for those who want to play with whips. I haven't read many things beyond the core books so if this is repeated elsewhere simply ignore. Chain Whip (Medium-sized Exotic Weapon) Damage: 1d6 Bludgeoning Range: 10ft. Crit: x2 +2 bonus on opposed attack rolls...

    Monster Knowledge

    How many times have you wanted to study monsters or perhaps have had a PC ask you for a related skill? Here's an alternative to give players allowing them to know things about particular monsters that they otherwise shouldn't know. Knowledge (Int; Trained Only) Charaters must select a group of...

    Casting on the Defensive -- Opposed Roll?

    Mage Neutralization This mechanic is definitely an interesting one, but perhaps it is unnescesary. One thing that players tend to overlook is their ability to ready an action against certain events. For instance, an archer in the back of the party with a readied action against a caster can...

    Less deadly crits

    Excellent Rule I think that this idea is great. The stipulation can be put more simply by saying that strength modifiers are not included in crit multipliers. This means that magical enhancements and specialization still works towards the damage of the weapon, and makes specialization a much...

    Feats for those who love mobility - comments welcome: 7!, 7 feats! Ah-ah-ah!

    In the Movies These feats are all interesting, but consider a little practicality here. I know that we are just talking about a game, but I try to picture some of these feats in action and I can't help but get images of gratuitous action scenes out of my head. I especially feel that the...

    The Dying Daughter PrC (Very dark in theme, be warned)

    Prestige Class or Template? I like this idea. It has alot of potential, and I think that the progression of abilities is fairly stable. However, I disagree with the idea of the Dying Daughter as a Prestige Class. Perhaps an alternative could be considered, such as a template, much like the...
