Sadly, not that much. From what I remember, Baaz corpses disintegrate shortly after they are slain. Their weapon-trapping ability is great for a pitched battle, but if you down the last one then you just have to wait a bit.

As far as I'm concerned, no Christmas decorations should be up prior to the first Sunday of Advent.

You just need the +1. It's perfectly legit to have, for example, a +1 brilliant energy vorpal sword.

I can't remember the last time I saw a turning attempt used for anything other than powering a Divine feat.

I suspect nothing is actually wrong with Elan's eye. If Durkon is of sufficient level to cast Resurrection, then he is of sufficient level to cast Regenerate.

Titans are good for the Gate chain.

Unless the overthrow of said king can be accomplished in (caster level) rounds or fewer by the Solar. Then it might not be a bad idea, as it would fall into the immediate service category. 'Course, then the Solar might come looking for you after the spell has expired, which brings along its...

Well, you don't have to like someone to be their ally. I would think that, for the purposes of the ogre fight here, the boy would consider his father his ally; after all, they have a common foe. When he went to shank his old man, clearly the father would not be an ally (nor anyone who came to...

Eh, strictly speaking any evil group capable of casting Plane Shift should be able to wipe the floor with petitioners and lantern archons. At least as presented in the Manual of the Planes (IIRC)

Yes, Masters of the Wild. Drd 9. IIRC, it allowed the recipient to roll twice on the table and choose between the rolls, as well as lacking the level loss normally associated with returning from death.

Maybe it's just me, but I'm curious as to why the child was there. I'm not certain that people that young can reasonably make the conscious decision to follow the path of law and good. I would have thought that, being unable to choose Law or Chaos, Good or Evil, the child's soul would end up in...

It probably had something to do with being everywhere in the universe simultaneously and the odd effects pan-galactic presence has on human physiology, to say nothing about the... you know what? It was a bad episode, and it's probably best that we all put it from our minds.

Interesting. Your reasons here for disliking Godstorm/2210 are the same ones that make me so highly regard them. I like the resource management and the fact that you have a limited timeframe in which to accomplish your goals. My main issue with Godstorm is what I perceive to be a lack of balance...

Is it just me or does O-Chul, despite his expression not changing at all, look angrier every time we see him? :)

Yeah, alright. I had remembered the purple fiend being redder, and in my haste neglected to check.

I note the color of the text from the off-screen speaker on Kurota's (?) boat is the same as that of one of the fiends Sabine is in league with.

True, but the spell does have the unfortunate "you're restored to the minimum amount of XP for your level" clause, so it sucks way more to get level-drained when you're 100 XP away from your next level than when you've just hit your new level.

I find the "sweet spot" to start at 9th level or so, contrary to a number of other posters. It's once the players have access to 5th level spells that the game really gets going, in my view. At that point, the PCs have enough wacky abilities that it's no longer enough for the DM to simply bring...

Meh. Hobby shops have been made irrelevant by Amazon anyway. Maybe the ones around me just suck, but I can find no compelling reason to spend my money there rather than getting it cheaper with free 2-day shipping online.

As far as the rules are concerned, the celestials don't get any special privileges in this regard to my knowledge. It's possible that the Book of Exalted Deeds says something about it, but I don't recall seeing it there. There have been no Celestial Codices to go into detail on the celestial...
