    D&D 3E/3.5 (3.5) Zerth Cenobite?

    Okay, I have found two different versions of this Psionic Monk prestige class; one in Dragon Magazine #281 and another in the Complete Psionic book. Though it seems that the one in DM 281 is out-dated (3.0 edition stuff), I am still wondering about one thing... Which one is more balanced, which...

    3.X Gamers?

    Well, I am currently involved in three different D&D groups in my circles of friends. One has remained loyal to 3.5, one has moved from 3.5 to Pathfinder, and the third started out with 4e (though I managed to convince them to try out Pathfinder, which worked out so-so for me) I just feel sad...

    Homebrew Race in need of LA +1 ??

    On favored class, I thought either Fighter or Barbarian. They're probably the only two that fit their flavor and such aside from "Any", which is kind of...well, rare among all the 3.5 races (Since this is 3.5 and not Pathfinder) XD Also, I like the way you did that comparison with Elf and...

    Bone/Corpse creature template.

    Dante's post seems about right. Though I am surprised, it was in Pathfinder that they started to use the Charisma system for Undead? I never checked the 3.5 Monster Manual too well (since I haven't been a 3.5 DM) and I always thought mindless undead use Con and Vampires and such use Cha on HD...

    Homebrew Race in need of LA +1 ??

    To clarify a few things, I am not the DM and I am well-aware of the potential game-breaking the feats like Track and direction intuiting abilites might bring with them, but I do not plan to really ABUSE such abilities. I would rather see them as something of a situational convenience. Lastly, I...

    Whackiest Monster

    I would say the Two-Headed Cyclops. Funny enough, it was named the Biclops. Also, the Giant Space Hamster (if it really does exist in one of the books). The only thing that I can find funnier than those is the Wolf-In-Sheep's Clothing.

    Powerful Build and Mind-Blade?

    Aaah, like some other things not affected by Powerful Build? (Like, carrying capacity etc.) And yeah, like I said, it probably depends on DM. Funny thing is, I thought about this after looking at not only the Half-Giant, but also due to a homebrew race I made that has Powerful Build XD

    D&D 3E/3.5 (3.5) Lethal Grappling?

    Well, no wonder someone had made their own version of Reaping Mauler somewhere which I actually liked better, but yeah. Which book is the Black Blood Cultist from? And I think the one asking the whole question would probably want to be a grappler in humanoid form instead of shapeshifting for...

    Powerful Build and Mind-Blade?

    It's funny how that Powerful Build racial can sometimes be so messy. But yeah, I wondered after I made a few checks on the sadly under-powered Soulknife class (which I find interesting flavour-wise)... Does the Powerful Build racial let a Soulknife manifest a Large Mindblade instead of a Medium...

    D&D 3E/3.5 (3.5) Lethal Grappling?

    I think a good source for related feats and such is the Complete Warrior book. Also, a grappling specialist Prestige Class called the Reaping Mauler can be found in that book. I'm not good with any specific feats, but with that book and Tome of Battle I reckon you might find something useful.

    Yet another Monkey Grip thread.

    I can agree with this one, but the problem is that this is a more DM-specific thing with the realism and all. Though to be honest I might as well not care. What was the main point of this thread? The reach bonus from a large weapon, and something that had to to with Monkey Grip? (Also, now I...

    Looking for some clarification on a feat...

    Arcane Hierophant was from Races of the Wild, right? And where is this Touch of Golden Ice from? Also, I think you should go with the given tips, mainly the one of giving an Animal Companion the benefits of a Familiar...or was it vice-versa?

    D&D 3E/3.5 Can anyone suggest a D&D 3/3.5 'tutorial adventure' to run newbie players through?

    Might these books help with a group who do not want much emphasis on actually RPing their characters and such? (That's what I get for accepting my siblings as D&D players while I am DM...)

    Homebrew Race in need of LA +1 ??

    Well, not really Tauren...more humanoid, and the race only has females. *Hides* And what might you mean by missing something? (Also, still feeling funny to have admitted that I made partly bovine amazons as a race. XD ) Also, on another board, people said that Powerful Build would give me a +1...

    D&D's version of the Uruk Hai?

    My view on the Uruk-Hai would be mixing a few traits of Hobgoblin, Orc and Half-Orc together in a logical manner. I have nothing else to say really, and I guess it depends on the creator of the stats what he or she would deem "logical"...

    Homebrew Race in need of LA +1 ??

    Well, it's a race related to Minotaurs, though if I made it outright clear what they were, I might not be taken seriously. Though knowing how wacky some ideas like the Slaadi and other such examples are in D&D canon, I might be wrong about that. But either way, I do notice that someone said LA...

    Homebrew Race in need of LA +1 ??

    Okay, I have read into the Level Adjustment estimations and such from books like Savage Species, but I still don't know if my homebrew race counts as having LA +1 or not. Also, mercy on me, I am new here XD So, here are the base stats: - +2 Wis, -2 Dex. - Medium Humanoid - Darkvision, Base...
