i'd probably have to say the time a friend, who recently back from semi-serious dental work that required what was apparently massive amounts of local anesthetic, showed up unexpectedly and decided he'd take a very active role in a frankenstein v. villager type negotiation. his girlfriend drove...

at lower levels, i'd be in for stuff like this. but i found that once PCs got to the 10th or so range, and had literally thousands of dollars of unusable junk, it tends to become easier if they have it appraised or carted off by the armful. typically, i let someone pass a DC vs. Merchant guild...

i'm hesitant about this, because you made it seem like he was already not really for it "...managed to get an XYZ past the DM!" i know you already know this, but DMs don't generally like being surprised and unprepared. maybe try to work out what is acceptable and what is not, so you won't have...

not fair! i was actually getting spotlight to check out where i hid my notes on that when i realized that you'd already said it! haha. good call though.

meh, i'd have said nightshade or forget-me-nots. XD

part of me almost wants to say he had a ward or a spell up that would stop it, just so they could experience a thematic fight. however, i feel that would be punishing them, especially if they were really clever in how they got into his room while he still slept. however, a trump i've had...

interesting concept. maybe i'll give it a whirl when i'm back with my mates and we can break out the die over some pints and pizza. in 7 months. :(

you know, not to nag or anything, but your AC is fairly low for someone at CR12 or so. i realize that you may have a fairly effective method of dealing with attackers, but eventually, someone several size categories larger than you is going to charge your CR1 armour class and really put a...

i always found that there were really only two types of people who could pull off a planescape campaign - people with an amazing ability for reams of memorization, or incredibly creative people with a flair for massive improvisation.

i typically also take the route of increasingly more fantastic description. a +1 weapon could basically be a better craft than the rest, with few strange runes or signs of its nature. however, by the time you reach a +3 weapon, you could explain that the blade is balanced "...keener than any...

gah! beat me to it! basically, check out the d20srd.org for more guidance, but yeah, this has been covered by posters quicker than myself. Actions In Combat :: d20srd.org

i had a character similar to that - he was, in the parlance of the online community a "tortoise with a toothpick". seriously, he's not allowed to directly harm anyone, and has a slurry of other penalties against him. given, you're having a hard time connecting him with a hit, but if he's high...

well, my main concern is what to make of a aasimar PC who is attacked by a black pudding - does the aasimar's innate acid resistance protect his items from the acidic grip of the black pudding, or only he himself from taking damage?

i'd give them fair warning, but if they decided to ignore this or push their luck, don't feel too bad about a TPK. for instance, if it's painfully obvious to even them that they're lacking any real fire resistance, have villagers bemoan some cult of fire-worshippers, massive swaths of scorched...

double post. sorry.

does energy resistance also protect the items that you wear? ie: if someone has fire resistance 10 and they decide to lay in a fire (to keep warm while they sleep, or impress the local peasants) do they wake up naked and covered in ash, or does the resistance extend to their armour, clothes, ect.?

simply put, a slowed character may only use a move or standard action, per round, not both and not a full-round action. however, what is the ruling on a swift or immediate action? any takers?

typically at low levels you'll do fine with rageclaws or kuthrik claws. however, if you want some serious cheese, bind the threefold mask of the chimera to your totem chakra - it allows three bite attacks at no penalty to multiple natural attacks, and all with full strength. it can get pretty...

basically, i'm thinking of the following build, and my DM is saying it's not going to work: full attack (using deep impact) + power attack (to the max!) and then full-attack some bozo for a ton of damage with two touch attacks. he said it only applies to the first, because the wording says...

wow. i'm totally seconding this, it's just.....evil! ;)
