Gaseous form? Admittedly it depends on the actual situation but could be useful.

:confused: about the bolded bit. Are saying that if suggestion is used to hurt anybody at all (beat apon my bodyguard and not me) the spell would not work? Or is it specific to comrades only (which may mean the dopplegangers ruse wouldn't work)? Possible other situations: Surrender or Run as...

Two other things that I liked. There is a Star Wars quote. A PC helping a NPC and not killing him. Too many players i've encountered would have went either: He isn't helping me, kill/leave him or Do I get XP for killing him?

Something that has been spelt out in my games. Even if the NPC falls for the bluff, it's possible that they will not beleive you even if you say the sky is blue. Why? Because he is following orders. They belong to an opposing order/religion. She simply hates your guts. :]

Races of Faerun would have the Orc version, or a more general one for any appropriate race.

I'd say yes since there is no mention that a person can only be affected once per day (like some beneficial spells/abilities do). While I can't provide a quote, i'm sure that there are some out there.

From my perspective (i.e.: The world runs the same/similar for NPCs as PCs): While there isn't a rule written down, it is implied that others besdes PCs get experience. How, why etc isn't mentioned as pointed out, but the only known mechanic is XP. To me that says that when advancing monsters...

Let my try to write this tastefully. (As an aside: a friend nearly got thrown out of a pub for saying this.) It allows them to balance a stack of glasses (and potentially mugs) better. They have a larger bracing mechanism :uhoh:

As a general rule don't you need to make an attack roll or be able to critical to get precision damage? you don't roll for MM, but do for Acid Arrow.

This would be the way I'd run it. As a personal bias, stone doors either need bludgenning (hammer not club) or piercing (pick not rapier). Wood is obviously slashing, but axe not sword. Special materials may change these.

Ask the players? Not trying to be facetious here but maybe they have an idea (even if it ends up being one of the above). Use several of the above at once, not just one? Have the PC's all know each other before adventuring. Had a campaign where three of us were going to be siblings: Human...

Shorter? :]

If allowed try: Dragonsong (Draconomicon pg105) +2 on spoken word/songs performance checks. DC increases +2 for mind affecting affects eg Bardic Music.

Before the CW came out a similar process for weapons appeared, "Heirloom" items maybe. I remember something about Samurai being mentiond. I think it appeared in Dragon, maybe as far back as 3.0?.

Prestidigitation had the option to be on all the time. Did anyone here try it and how did they find it?

Hence my "assumption" clause and the "already been allowed". :) I may have needed to say: "what is in the book is allowed" but do we need to be that specific about it? ;) Aside 1, given some RP requirements (I don't know that the MB has such a pre-req) it's always good to see the DM about...

If you like buffing, try Dragonsong Lyrist from Dragonomicon, a 5 level PrC. you loose 3 caster levels bardic lore gains and some skill choices, but gain buffing: STR +4. flight, large area fear, mass healing, suggestion. Seperate from Bardic Music one of the pre-req feats gives +2 for mind...

It can be both. I'd fall back on your standard procedure for this. To me (and how I generally run puzzles) this means: Let players have a look and see if they come up with ideas. if they stall, knowledge checks, if they still stall, mention that they can continue and come back to it. I'm not...

I'll make an assumption here: Mindbender is from an allowed book or has already been allowed. On that note, the OP can go for it (DM has "already" given permission). If that is not the situation then OP needs to talk to the DM. As an aside, I personally do not like 1 level dips, but sometimes...

There is a not so old thread that mentions the two not stacking, but as to where? :o Theme wise they should stack (IMHO) but as to RAW what you have written temps me to think "No"
