The AO thing doesn't work because any rogue with a focus on fighting will have lots of ranks in tumble.

CR7-12 can't be flanked? Demons fit in? 7th level half-fiend Ogre Barbarian CR10. His Bbn levels make him unflankable, you wanted demons, and his STR boost is a massive +14, give him a start of 15 as opposed to 10 and you're looking at a 30str critter easily (+1 at 4th). That'll teach pesky...

I use the tables, but inject common sense into it. A pair of minataurs once had 15,000 sp or so. Well, that's 300lbs of silver coins, no way they're taking them along raiding. I figured the randomly rolled loot was in their lair, the PC's didn't bother tracking them so the loot was never...

Okay, I thought I had this straight, but someone disputed the rule I thought was correct. I've been doing energy drain like extra damage, ie if the wight or vampire spawn hits you then you gain a negative energy level or whatever they call it (automatically, as part of the attack). 24hrs...

I said in there that the benefits of it are +1 and reach. But besides, one AO isn't a big deal. And besides, if AO's were such a huge deal everyone would be using a spiked chain anyways. Will you still get the -X penalty if your weapon resizes? You're not trained for it. So you might end...

Leave it as is, but instead of all heads at once and 1d4 inbetween just have 2 heads per round breathe, and 4 attack with bite. Or 3 per round. If the battle looks close towards the end have them hold off for one round and all use bites. The PC's will hopefully get the clue that it's about...

Yeah, but +2 str, -2 dex and the benefits for large combined will give you this: +0 to attack (+1 str, -1 size) and -2 AC (-1 dex, -1 size). +1-3 damage on average (+1 str, +1-2 if weapon size increases). +4 grapple, trip, bull rush's, etc. So the biggest draw is the +1-3 damage and reach...

If that's true they changed my favorite feat into something relatively worthless. Why take the feat if you can just get a scabbard of keen edges which applies to any weapon you put in it? I suppose it still has it's uses because it's always on if you have the feat, but it's not as good as it...

Aren't pit fiends extraplanar now instead of outsiders?

The spell won't last longer then the next day when the cleric learns remove curse. So I'm not too worried. I'll do it once just to learn them. And my 6th level wizard/enchanter has his eye on it big time.

I was looking into Mind Bender from T&B for a PC I had, but it kind of sucked. I like the idea of a PC. Maybe I'll create a minor drawback on an item. Influenced from LotR. Whenever the PC's start argueing the ring casts suggestion or whatnot on a few of them to encourage them to fight...

Yeah, I wouldn't use it frequently. They could just cast hold person on the barbarian and then knock him out and wait until the next day. I reread suggestion and I guess that would work. I didn't realize it could make someone do something. I thought it was more of suggesting to them...

Or you could have a potion of fly or a mass fly spell. At 20th level (to make it harder to dispel) that's fairly difficult to get rid of. Fireball isn't tough at all at this level either. 10d6 just isn't a lot if you're well prepared and have items. It's tough, but not unbeatable.

You can change werewolves to 10/silver and still have an elder earth elemental at 10/+3 or something. Just because you change some creatures doesn't mean you need to change everything to ignore the +'s. If some things still have +'s then any thing in a supplement will still be valid, or the DM...

So they destroy party cohesion? Big deal if it's short term and the party has the chance to sack the barbarian and tie him down. I just want a way to make the fighter attack the mage without using dominate which would give two saves, one at a higher bonus due to attacking a friend. This seems...

Sorry to drudge up that can of worms. It seems fairly straight forward to me, you must follow that course of actions. Not just elect to ignore it and do something else instead. If you cast it on the Cleric and say "Refrain from casting spells" they MUST stop casting for x days/level" They...

Nothing in Lesser Geas says it has to be a one word command. So he's not held to the command of killing his friends until the next day or what? I know he doesn't get the penalty to stats until the next day, but if he turns around and starts swinging at his friend that's good enough for me.

I just let them CDG with anything that does Fire or Acid if they're not in combat and not limited by time. To do anything else is kind of being too silly. If you're not in combat who cares if they CDG with a torch instead of holding it to his body for a minute. Same thing really.

How does this work? If I have an NPC cast Lesser Geas on a PC fighter and command him to kill the wizard. Figure he knows their name, or points at them, etc. Would the fighter have to immediately attack the wizard? Or just make plans to do it eventually? Is the timing of the quest up to the...

Well, they have prices for lots of other commodities, so why not for Ivory too? That's basically what I want to know. 20gp per pound like silk? 5gp per pound like silver? I'd say it's closer to silk personally, but I didn't know if it was ever covered in a module, etc.
