    The cost of a dragon

    So, a player of mine wants to have a brass dragon wyrmling as a familiar, as per the dragon familiar feat for a wizard. This is cool, and I've got no real issues with this. However, my party is going to be leaving the area at level 5, and going to an area where it is literally impossible to...

    Custom world races

    Actually, I put that as the last line in the Racial Stats info: Traders can breathe freely in both fresh and salt water as well as out of water. I tried to put it in there as plain text so that I wouldn't have to have a creature with three types. (Aquatic, Fey, Amphibious) What are Aventi...

    Custom world races

    This is what I have for the Traders. Let me know what you think, and whether or not this merits a level adjustment. If it means anything, I don't intend for the Traders to be a PC race- at least not at first. The Traders: Mysterious, blue-skinned mariners who travel the seas in powerful...

    Custom world races

    A friend and I are creating a homebrew world, and I've run into a bit of a snag with 3 of the races/modifications that we've been planning. 1. I saw an idea on giant in the playground that struck my fancy and I'm going to impliment it here- a marine, amphibious fey trader race that serves as a...

    To kill a dragon?

    O.O That's rediculously insane good luck there. Especially since I'd probably have thrown the deck into the lava- I've seen too many bad things come from a Deck of Many Things. Glad you guys had fun.

    Mechanical Arts

    Because they're dwarves, and their primary concern is using it as a forge rather than a death beam? And as such, they'd need a much higher and more constant output of energy to heat, melt, and treat the various metals and alloys that they are putting into the machine. Besides, I thought we...

    Mechanical Arts

    If I were to use this mechanic, I'd make the amount of energy stored dependant upon the Darkstone crystal rather than the Shadestone. In the game that we're pulling the mechanic from, the same Shadestone was used to draw the energy from several different Darkstones before it became a Sunstone...

    Mechanical Arts

    Why make it something that has to be created? You're world crafting, right? You could make it a natural (if uncommon/rare) mineral. In FF12 it's a natural thing. You see large patches of crystal formations, and they're all Darkstone formations. Now, for the Shadestone equivalent, if you...

    Meaningful Magic Items

    Basically, what are the numeric bonuses and specific abilities of the weapon?

    Meaningful Magic Items

    This is actually a really great idea. My friends and I have created something similar- a suit of armor that was worn by a legendary general and had some interesting quirks- but nothing really in depth. However, I'm contemplating creating a homebrew world here shortly, and I like this idea to...

    Knowledge devotion and Healing mechanics..

    So, would KD work for healing spells used to damaged undead? Seeing as how they become an attack in that instance, and deal damage rather than heal. And, if that precedence is set, then why couldn't KD work for normal healing? (I haven't read up on it yet, this is just the first thing that...

    [Construct] 'Roller blades'

    I think that line is more so that you can't animate, say, your opponent's cloak and have it strangle him in the middle of battle. After all, how many animated swords and boots of dancing can be found in DnD? These are items that are specifically meant to be held/worn.

    A request for information/opinion

    I hadn't considered the levitating/ beyond large aspect of the feat, actually. That's a really good point. I do have the magic item compendium, and am looking at the various abilities, but I've got some time before I need to work the issue, since we only just started the game today. One of...

    Complete list of flaws, please ?

    Seeing as how this became relevant to me recently, and I found that I couldn't access some of the links provided, I thought that I might just add this here; it was incredibly useful to me, and might be to someone else as well. http://www.oocities.org/valmothg/Flaws.pdf

    A request for information/opinion

    Why I think you're not quite right with your logic about the monk's damage: So, with the INA, if I hadn't taken any monk levels, that 1d4 becomes a d6, ect, up to level 16-20 where the 2d6 becomes 3d6 as per the DMG table. However, since I have monk levels, and it states that I instead add...

    A request for information/opinion

    Yes, except that Kensai doesn't merge with monk for the purposes of determining the amount of damage that my unarmed strike deals, it just allows free cross-classing between Kensai and Monk (unless I'm missing something.) As such, I'm dealing damage as a level 6 monk with the benifits of...

    A request for information/opinion

    Yeah, I'll ask him about the drop=trip thing for Cleave. I only just found out about Stand Still a couple of hours ago, and I'm trying to figure out how ot put it into the build without losing something, cause it's definitely worth taking. I'll probably sack Bull Rush for it, but by that point...

    Shrinkage?

    Well, it wouldn't take much strategy to dodge around and spam breath attacks- especially since being shrunk doesn't alter the creature's special attacks or speed. Tiny Elder dragons using Flyby breath attacks? And isn't there something saying that flying creatures that get shrunk gain better...

    D&D 3E/3.5 3.5e NG aligned Paladin-like class?

    Unless your cleric followed a homebrew diety that granted Tower Shield Proficiency, you'd have to sack a feat to get it. If you did that, you could probably throw it in with the War domain and get a free martial weapon out of it as well. (Clerics of the war domain using their diety's favored...

    TN version of monk ki strike

    If that's the case, then why would anyone want to play a non-TN monk? They'd have more flexibility to strike through DR for four different types of aligned creatures, while the others are limited to only three types. Also, a Ki strike doesn't do 'extra damage' in the first place, it's just...
