    arguing with my DM: The Leadership feat(and a wizard)

    A Pal 7 with the minimum Cha I might expect of such (16) and taking into account 'great renown' should have a cleric cohort of 6th level. If the cleric has the healing domain, all curative spells they cast are treated as if empowered. Nothing in the description states this would not be the case...

    arguing with my DM: The Leadership feat(and a wizard)

    Okay, I admit to having made a couple mistakes in my prior post: 1) I had too many threads open at once, from both the 3.x and pathfinder message boards, leading to me confusing which message board this thread was on, and 2) I made the probably classic mistake of only reading the first and last...

    arguing with my DM: The Leadership feat(and a wizard)

    Why would you want leadership? You are level 7 with Cha 7. You are an adventurer and so likely move around a lot - or at least do not stay constantly within a single small region (such as a city or earldom). You are a wizard and so likely have a familiar. Leadership score: 7 -2 (cha) -2...

    What holds the world in balance? (or, why aren't demons over-running the world?)

    I use a multilayer transitive plane system in my home-brew cosmology. Deities and celestials exist at one end and fiends at the other. As each moves towards the other end, they become progressively weaker with each layer of the transitive plane. The central plane in the layered layout has become...

    Which edition poll for October

    At the moment, I am not playing anything. However, I am reading and imagining possibilities with several RPGs - most notably Pathfinder and True20. I am also looking over recently purchased Exalted core rules and FantasyCraft core rules. As Pathfinder is listed, I chose it from the list. I'm...

    Help me out with the details of a demon encounter

    A powerful demon has likely had centuries if not thousands of years to consider creating this or that spell. I forget which level misdirect is, but if I were in your place, I would simply replace one of its spells known with a spell that combines polymorph (humanoid form only) with misdirect. It...

    Pathfinder 1E Building New "Balanced" Pathfinder Classes

    Buy the Numbers was good, but it presumed that all core classes were close to balanced. One issue with this was that the monk was often realized as being a bit weak, but because of its various specials (speaking any language, etc) Buy the Numbers (and some other systems) tended to treat it as...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Psionics (from Dreamscarred)

    This is starting to sound a little like the warlock, with the mind blade replacing the warlock's eldritch blast. PLAs for diverse abilities varying for each soul knife, for diverse forms of damage with the mind blade, and perhaps for reshaping the soul knife (into other weapons - including...

    Subtle Rule Changes

    Personally, I found the text for regeneration in the preview of the Beastiary interesting. For the round after the creature received damage by the correct energy type, any damage will get through the regeneration. It is literally turned off like a switch (emphasis mine): Regeneration (Ex)...

    Fighting a God, Divine Strategies

    My first thought is an anti-magic field - expanded - that does not affect his own magic. So all mortal magic within, say, 60 to 120 ft of him is dispelled, but his own spells work as normal. The DC, due to divine bonuses, etc, is nearly impossible to get past; perhaps rolling a 17+ will allow...

    Magic: Innate or Learned?

    It depends. In a magical world I expect people to have evolved to have a biology that is capable of interacting to some degree with magic. Most have a limited ability and can never get beyond the basics - thus part of the reason for many of the lowest level magic using NPCs. They literally...

    OotS 654

    Maybe I'm missing something, but how could V possibly escape? He lost the other two spirits, and without them he cannot cast conjurations or teleport. I can only see things working out for V if the others had some way of both 1) tracing the teleport, and 2) following the teleport to join the...

    Lost in the Wilderness

    I'm not too familiar with Eberron, but my first thought for wilderness situations on a plain involve burrows. Are their any dire prairie dogs in the area? Do you allow them to collect parts from animals? Maybe they come upon a monster whose hide, blood, bone, scale, fur, etc is rare and...

    oots 639

    Personally, I think the next strip will return back to hell to cover the reactions and opinions of the three arch-fiends. Perhaps this was unexpected and will affect some of their plans. Perhaps Tiamat will come knocking to find out why they gave an upstart monkey so much power - resulting in...

    oots 639

    Am I the only one to think that V just killed *every* black dragon in the world - even those only part black dragon (such as the half-dragon humanoid and half-dragon centaur)? That was my understanding of the comic before coming to this thread, but now I am not completely sure. After all, her...

    Oots 635

    A terrible idea just occurred to me ... What if V saves his family - only to kill them himself when one of the other three personalities take offense at something they do - such as become horrified at what he has become or is doing to the black dragon, or not being appreciative of being saved...

    OotS 631!

    I have to admit that the situation is keeping me guessing. For example, at the very least V needs the power to teleport. As well as he knows his home I doubt he needs teleport without error. Yet what template or prestige class grants teleport? Not half-fiend or lich - which were my first...

    OotS 631!

    It has arrived! Somehow I'm not surprised hell is involved in these types of offers . . . OotS #631 I can't say I didn't see this coming, but I must admit there were a few surprises - such as

    Oots 630

    Very true! That is one way that it might work! Perhaps as a raven he can warn V's mate, pretending to be V's familiar sent there by one of V's new spells! Some ravens are able to speak simple words as I recall, although I admit that the SRD does not mention this for ravens. On the other hand, a...
