    Swallowed character and his stuff

    Let's assume some character gets swallowed by some monster. As long as he stays in the monsters belly, he suffers some acid damage each round. Would this acid damage apply to all his stuff too (gear, weapons, armor, etc.)? And a related question. Does this quote from the PHB: "Energy and sonic...

    Looking for cheap Cheat: Divine Might

    In Dragon 305 (March 2003) there is an article called "Faith and Honor - Piety for Non-Clerics". In this there is a feat called "Divine Channeler", which allows you to turn or rebuke undead once per day as a cleric half your character level. To take this feat you must have a parton deity and you...

    Best 1st level adventure out there

    Dead of Winter My favourite module of all times is called Dead of Winter. It was on the CD that came with my 3.0 PHB, together with a demo for the CharGen program. I liked this module so much, I built my whole campaign world around it. Dead of Winter was designed for 2nd level characters...

    What are your favorite pre-3e D&D/AD&D books.

    I joined the hobby only in the middle of the 90s, and about the only pre 3ed stuff I own is the Complete Handbooks series and some Dark Sun. My favourite of these is the the Complete Handbook for Gnomes and Halflings, especially the Halfling part. I like those halflings much better than the 3ed...

    Need help translating a sentence

    Hi all! I'm currently translating a text from English into Hungarian and have problems with one sentence. The text is about multi-level marketing (MLM) and the sentence has words which have a special meaning in this situation. Here is the sentence, hopefully someone can explain to me what it...

    Changing weapons in combat

    "Thus, with a BAB of +11, if I attack twice with the longsword in my right hand, and once with the shortsword in my left hand, I am "wielding a second weapon in my off hand", and therefore I "fight this way"... so I take TWF penalties, even though I'm not taking the extra attack." This seems...

    Changing weapons in combat

    Hello! I have a few questions about changing weapons in combat. I think it's best if I post some examples and you can comment on those. 1. 15th level Fighter is making a full attack, so he can make three attack rolls. If he has the Quick Draw feat, can he make his attack with a sword or some...

    CW: Invisible Blade - Unfettered Defense question

    I don't own the book, but I'm pretty sure it works this way: Example charachter has an Int of 16, so an Int bonus of +3. 1st level: +1 to AC 2nd level: +2 to AC 3rd level: +3 to AC 4th level: +3 to AC 5th-10th level: +3 to AC At least this is the way how the CW bladesinger works. This...

    D&D 3E/3.5 [D&D 3.5e] 1st Level Multiclass Characters?

    1. "0.5-level" barbarians could (can) rage and they get fast movement. Their BAB is +0. I just checked it. 2. I can't imagine how a "0.5/0.5" level character could be overpowered but even if it would be, then only for the first level. How long do you play at first level? 3 sessions? 4...

    Overlapping Spells = double effects?

    No I'm pretty sure that you wouldn't get a double effect. You would have to dispel the spell twice though to get rid of it.

    Caster level for paladin's detect evil?

    Thanks all 1. Okay, I think I'll use caster level for a paladin's detect evil = class level. I wouldn't use character level, since this would make the ability somewhat frontloaded (although I admit this shouldn't come up often). 2. I think I figured out that nondetection indeed does work...

    Caster level for paladin's detect evil?

    Hi all! What is the caster level for the detect evil spell-like ability of the paladin? I'd say that it equals the number of levels in the paladin class, but is there some rulebacking to this? Or am I completly wrong? I found no rule dealing with this situation. The monsters in the MM have...

    SPontaneous Divine Caster: Which do you Use?

    I'd allow the Green Ronin shaman and have NPCs of this clas. Altough there are only available for orcs and similar folk, not for humans, elf, dwarves and so on. .

    D&D British edition????

    "Anyway, could you translate the post of this person verbatim?" I'll try. This started out with an argument about whether male drow get a -2 penalty on charisma or not. (They do in the 3.0 DMG and MM, but not in the FRCS (as far as I know, I don't have it) or in the 3.5 MM). This guy said...

    D&D British edition????

    "perhaps he meant it was in English. versus say French or Spanish." No, he means British and not American. A 3.0 DMG. Maybe the only difference is that these books were printed in the UK and not in the US and everything else is the same? I don't want to believe that a complete stranger lied...

    D&D British edition????

    This "british edition" thing supposedly (sp?) is on the backcover. And here is the link to the thread: http://forum.rpg.hu/index.php?act=ST&f=41&t=2343&s= Maybe some of you always wanted to check out a Hungarian RPG site but didn't know where to start. :p

    D&D British edition????

    Okay, there is this guy on one Hungarian RPG-messageboard (yes, I come from Hungary), who claims that he bought a 3rd edition DMG in 2001 in London. So long, so good. But he also says that it is a "british edition", and that this is written somewhere on the cover. Are there really special...

    Detect Magic & Spellcraft DC

    In 3.5 armor and protection items radiate Abjuration (obviously), weapons and offensive items Evocation. (DMG page 213) (In 3.0 this was probably Transmutation, but I'm not sure.) The strength of the magic aura depends on the caster level of the item, which is the enhancement bonus times three...
