Trap filled tavern? Hmmm...A PC's mum is present, and he hasn't written to her in months, and she needs the garbage taken out...A PC's mother-in-law is present, and is very disappointed in his drunken behaviour...A PC's liege-lord/high priest/teacher/master is present and is very disappointed in...

Don't forget the magic mouth in a dungeon spouting off some half-cryptic information...or just making conversation while the dungeon denizens summon reinforcements...

ask to take the character sheets to help tailor the next adventure to the characters. create a new sheet for each character sans equipment. ensure all new character sheets comply with approved sources. use GM fiat at beginning of next adventure to throw PCs through a portal, or be captured by...

Or perhaps have the Quiver act sort of like a rod or staff, with a set number of charges, and a small selection of spell effects, using up a charge each time they summon forth a particular spell arrow. Perhaps with 2 or 3 cantrip arrows at a cost of 0 charges, 2 or 3 1st level spell arrows at a...

Looking at it the wrong way...don't enchant the arrows, you fire them and they're gone. Enchant the quiver. Have it create 20 arrows per day, each arrow is a 1/day use activated spell that must be fired from a bow to activate. A bunch of 0 and 1st level spells would do the trick. For a bit of...

rather than kill the previous companion, why not just add a "shadow critter" template to it and keep the loyal pet...

I'd say go with the mithril chainmail/shirt, a +1 composite longbow, elven cloak and boots, and spend the rest on a title and estate in an elven kingdom, being managed for you by your trustworthy younger cousin who was always more of a stay-at-home-reading-books kind of elf/halfelf. Guaranteed...

I had a rather deviant mage of mine in a birthright campaign come up with a c*ckring of stoneskin...it made him hard...

Hmmm...perhaps a Druid would be a better choice. It would seem that the area is either natural habitat for oozes, or that their population is out of balance and needs culling for the good of the habitat. In either case, a Druid could commune with the oozes and soon locate the 'unnatural' one.

Miller's Pyre, Moral Mind, Materialists. I love the idea of the "good guys" winning...and getting exactly what they asked for, a regime so terrifyingly good and moral and right that they cannot exist within it. I would also include the Moral Mind/Materialists because...

Suggest they petition a LG temple for aid in locating the possession demon, few temples that support a paladin order would refuse to aid in the destruction of a demon. They may not even have to pay for the paladin, just offer him a share of the treasure as a 'tithe' to the temple.

Another fun plot was to have the party arrive to confront the evil mastermind for a final showdown, but as they burst into the throne room, the badguys pet oracle gives a prophesy declaring the newborn son of a party member is to be either the next great hero or villain, and badguy orders his...

If you want to really stack the bonuses, there is also Luck, Holy/Profane, Deflection, Competence, Enhancement, Natural Armour, Eldritch, Racial, Inherant, and quite frankly just about anything else you can con you GM into letting you have. Had a mage running around with an AC of 40 with room to...

Might I recommend spending the feat to buy Exotic Weapon Proficiency: Bastard Sword, if that exists (sorry still learning pathfinder, still mostly in 3.5). You can wield 2 handed, but release one hand as necessary for spellcasting while only sacrificing a slight damage bonus. What you trick the...

The only downside to a mage build is the inability to hit the broad side of a barn at range. Easily fixed. Craft Wondrous Item feat at 3rd level, craft something that lets you cast Magic Missile (level 3 caster) at will. Base cost is about 6000gp, which means cost to make it is about 3000gp...

Not at all, I'm happy to have someone using my ideas in a campaign. A really nasty threat I hit my players with during my last vs the undead campaign was what we called a Reaper. It was an extraplanar undead, something around 20HD and a real combat monster. It would walk on foot directly...

In the last campaign I ran, (a vs. the undead campaign), I came up with a few real nasties that could help make your badguy memorable. The key one at the low levels was what I called the Thrall Mark. The Necromancer branded his living servants/slaves/casual acquaintances with his mark, which...

To get the price for an item that is only used once per day, you divide the price by 5 and multiply it by the number of uses per day, in this case 1...which equates to 1/5th of the price, which is the same as saying -80%. The final cost price I listed is the actual cost in materials, not the...

A well placed marriage could very well secure you. Visit your neighbouring lords, the tradition of hospitality ensures they will meet and host you for a couple of days at least...more than long enough to see if they have any eligible daughters. What happens next depends on your moral stance. I...

Assuming you have a typical Fantasy world, the capital should have something resembling a Wizards Guild. As a borderland province, you have access to the ultimate resource: monsters. You have to kill them anyway, why not train your butcher to cut them up with an eye towards material components...
