    Permanency?

    From my own DM standpoint, any spell that was cast on you while living and made permanent would stay in place, since it is permanent. It won't be legal for the same spells to be recast upon you, since the target type changed, but the spells were cast and set in place when they were legal...

    Vorpal Vs Fortification

    Um...not if it's a contact poison. Your body shrugs off damage, but if you're getting hit with a contact poison, regardless of whether or not you take no damage, you are poisoned. Unrelated to that, doesn't Damage Reduction basically work like fast healing, in that you take the damage, but...

    HELP! Reduce ENC @ Level 3?

    Even with any weak characters I may happen to roll up, I have never managed to make myself encumbered right from the start. The real question is: What possessed you to buy so much crap in the first place? By what I can see, all of your "essential" gear is near to being useless. The rations...

    DR wigginess

    Why even argue it? Somebody already brought up that by wearing the Mantle of Faith, you become infused with the power of good and holiness. Essentially, by wearing the mantle, you are becoming a fake-Good Outsider. Are you telling me then that a Paladin, on his holy quest to destroy evil...

    Heal and appraising the wounds of foes

    I agree that Heal is the skill that would let you check up on how badly somebody is injured...but like any doctor, you would need a working knowledge of the creatures anatomy. So, essentially, humanoids would fall under the normal rules, since I'm assuming anybody trained in Heal would be...

    Combat casting - nearly useless in 3.5?

    Yes, you could have both. >.> Or you could have neither and run away like a maniac.

    Deep down inside, do you eagerly anticipate a TPK?

    When I achieve a TPK, I feel I have completed my job as a DM. Or at least, my secondary DM goal. The way I see it, it's you versus the players. Obviously events are stacked mightily in your favor since you are, you know, GOD, but if you operate within certain limitations and then play the...

    Master Thrower Question: Do these Thrown Weapon Tricks work together?

    Except that the entire premise is that you're pulling something out that was previously hidden and then throwing it post-haste. It doesn't include the targets BAB because they have no way of seeing it coming until it's actually being thrown. o.O At least...that's my take on the roleplay reason...

    Master Thrower Question: Do these Thrown Weapon Tricks work together?

    ~.^ You're -one- of my DM's, and only for this current game. I'm asking for future reference and all time. I thought it was right though, I just wanted to make sure. Thanks peoples.

    Master Thrower Question: Do these Thrown Weapon Tricks work together?

    Sneaky Shot has in the description that it requires a move-equivalent action, however Palm Throw merely states that the Master Thrower can throw two weapons instead of one with his attack roll. Sneaky Shot and Palm Throw I can see being used together, but the real question is whether or not...

    Is it OK to...

    As everybody has noted, stupidity comes with a price-tag roughly on par with a major magical item. If the PC decided that he felt like dueling with Thor, then by all means, let the freak duel with Thor.

    Capturing a Party... A call for experienced DMs

    Capture the Party From the pages of the Complete Warrior comes to you: The Justicar. Have your main villain (or whoever else wants to capture the party) hire one or more Justicar bounty hunters to capture the party. Justicars are great for beating the crap out of anything you want to beat...

    Half-Giant's reach and whips

    Why would you need to make a touch attack up to the range of the whip when it can be done so much easier in other ways? Not only that, but a whip does no damage to anybody wearing armor, and subdual damage to anybody that isn't. Anybody wanting to use a touch attack for a spell at range would...

    Arcane Spell Failure and Shields

    Actually, I never started an arguement, you just decided to argue. You're also not taking into regard that I was talking about dropping an off-hand weapon, since you seem hellbent on talking about off-hand weapons. As I said, I've never seen any sort of mage using two-weapons at once, THUSLY...

    xp for this encounter

    The PC's put themselves at minimum risk and essentially did nothing, the way you handled the combat. Personally I would have at least played out a portion of it, as it concerned the PC's, but the battle would have been raging around them too, with the NPC's duking it out in grand fashion (which...

    Half-Giant's reach and whips

    Don't think of it as a multiplication problem. It's a matter of addition. Any creature with reach threatens a square 10 feet away, so with any melee weapon, he can make that distance. It would stand to reason then that the 15 foot range of the whip would be added ONTO that. That's the way I'm...

    Arcane Spell Failure and Shields

    No, because the weapons are also typically used by themselves, and they aren't strapped to your arm. You can drop a weapon as a free action, and thusly gain the benefit of incurring no spell failure. I have also yet to meet a mage that wields two weapons, unless the mage in question is an...
