    Is there anything else on other familiars (especially ferrets)?

    I prefer actual D&D info, but might be able to get some 3rd party stuff by my GM. For the time being I'm using a Weasel animal for stats. They're the closest from what I can find to what a Ferret would be. Also stats on what a Familiar Ferret would give would be helpful as well. Also next...

    Clarification on "immediate action"

    Yes, and one (Deflect/Deflect, Lesser) spell says it can be cast at any time prior to the actual roll to strike. So is that a clarification to be sure when it (and other Immediate Actions) can be used, or is it an exception to when an Immediate Action can normally be used, for this spell.

    Clarification on "immediate action"

    My bad. The paragraph started off by talking about how it worked on your turn, I didn't realize it would jump topic mid-paragraph so I just skimmed it. Well that answers that part, thanks :)

    Clarification on "immediate action"

    Also, is there a limit to the number of "Immediate Actions" you can perform in a time span? Or spells you can cast? On your turn they count as a Swift Action. But off your turn it just says you can do it whenever. So say I had a spell that allowed me to deal 2d8 damage to an attacker that had...

    Clarification on "immediate action"

    huh, these forums don't have a search feature? Odd. I was checking out Immediate Actions (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/combat/actionsInCombat.htm#immediateActions) and how they relate to my wizardry spells. I get that I can use an Immediate Action when it's not my turn, but when? Just whenever I...

    Can a Wizard learn a spell for a level they can't cast yet?

    In my situation, all players are 4th level and were given 5,400gp to aquire 4th level resources. In my case, being a Wizard, I was allowed to purchase spells in addition to magic items. Basically it would mean that I picked it up off a scroll/book at some point. My delima was that we're...

    Can a Wizard learn a spell for a level they can't cast yet?

    Sorry for that confusion. Yes, I meant scribing it from a book/scroll, not upon gaining a level. Thanks for clearing that up :)

    Can a Wizard learn a spell for a level they can't cast yet?

    I was over on d20srd.org and it doesn't really say. Of course you can't learn spells from schools you're barred from learning. I don't see why not really. In many D&D video games you're allowed to attempt to learn a spell at any level, but even if you learn it, you can't cast it until you...

    The Future of Spycraft

    On their forums they have the martial artist for 2.0 somewhere. I'm not terribly sure if it was a preview or an official conversion or a fan conversion given an official nod. I do recall that Scott (one of the designers) was involved in the discussions and someone was trying to argue about new...

    Finally ordered GT

    Honestly, after playing d20 Modern for a few sessions I planned on making a version of d20 Modern Generic classes capable of handling fantasy modern & sci-fi. Really looking over the notes I had made, this is nearly exactly as I would have done so. The Classes, Talants & Feats. I think I would...

    Finally ordered GT

    After my first book being lost by the USPS and my second book taking 5 days to arrive on 2-day shipping (MTA Strikes and Holiday volume I suppose), I now hold the book in my hands 14 days after I ordered it. What can I say? I offered that I would give my totally uneducated and most likely...

    The Future of Spycraft

    Wow. It wasn't until the last line "Stay crafty" that I got the play on the word craft between Spycraft and Crafty Games. ::smacks self in head::

    Finally ordered GT

    I'm waiting to get mine. I spurged for the faster shipping as basic shipping went $1.50 over my Gift Card and the faster shipping went $3.50 over my Gift Card. Once I have it, I'll give my brutal unabashed and totally uninformed first opinion of it and revise that opinion as I actually read...

    Finally ordered GT

    I got a gift certificate for my birthday and ordered it used from Barnes & Nobles. I'm really looking forward to this. I'm looking to run a futuristic game... probobly most similar to the Dark Angel TV show where the United States government collapsed (or have no real power at all) with...

    So I want to make a zombie character...

    Looking at the Gravetouched Ghoul, it mentions their claw/claw/bite under a header "Full Attack". There is also text mentioning that if they have a weapon, they choose the claw/claw/bite or weapon. That leads me to believe that it's a full attack option, which normally don't just add onto other...

    So I want to make a zombie character...

    Yes, you can play a normal Ghoul. On page 32 of Libre Mortis (I brought my book to work today :) ), it explicitly lists a Ghoul as +3 LA and as one of the playable undead. This is why I wasn't happy they didn't include the standard Ghoul (or other basic undead) Template (or instructions on how...

    So I want to make a zombie character...

    Thank you for explaining. Yes, I wasn't properly using the correct terms and mixing things up. I have the concepts in my mind, but I wasn't conveying it correctly. Sorry about the confusion.

    So I want to make a zombie character...

    So saying my character was created as a Monk up to level 8 and became undead... All the monk abilities would continue to work? If the charater maintained a Lawful alignment they could continue as monk? is there a unarmed PrC that would work well for an undead martial artist? Now as to type...

    So I want to make a zombie character...

    So you think the Monk would work with being undead? I don't personally see a reason why not other than the "lawful" part. I'm not looking to mimick the crow, I was just using it as an example of the sort of sentience and playability as opposed to a "stupid" zombie. But I think I like the...

    So I want to make a zombie character...

    Yeah, The Crow would be a bit over the top for most group games. It would be neat in a solo game.
