    Craft overlapping?

    Alright... Let us run down the list. A hatchet handle is a pretty simple piece of work for a basic hatchet, and a Blacksmith probably has some ranks in Carpentry just due to... accidents that can occur when you bring molten metal into contact with wood ;). Bowyer/Fletcher used to be the 2e NWP...

    Hang Ten!

    Seems pretty clear. Anything that would be considered a distraction (being involved in combat, whiny henchmen asking "Are you done yet?!?!") or threatened prevent it. For example, if you decided to pick a lock surrounded by friendly warriors who don't want the lock opened? You may have an...

    Hang Ten!

    Can't take 10 on a Fort save. Only skill checks. Done. Slainte, -Loonook.

    Custom world races

    There is an established Race format. Use it. Stormwrack. What you're looking for is a Medium-sized Nixie... If you look at books pre-MMIV (so skip Stormwrack, MMV) and campaign books... There are 5 Aquatic Fey. If you're going to make a non-player race go from there because this race isn't...

    Custom world races

    The creature does not have the Amphibious trait as part of its skills. Aquatic subtype must also include the fact that they can breathe underwater for clarity. I'm going to use Darfellan and other viable Aquatics to tell you that the land speed is a bit slow... Gaining a Swim Speed is not...

    Scribe Scroll: Paper Versus Projection?

    Writing requires a change in the paper's texture, raising the text of the page applies a non-uniform texture. As I said, read the Figment subschool and Silent Image... You're creating a book. It may even have text on it... But you cannot manipulate the image except to move the static image...

    Scribe Scroll: Paper Versus Projection?

    Doesn't create texture... And only makes an image as visualized by you that may be moved but not interacted per the description. Also it is a figment; can't interact with the real world. So if it doesn't allow itself to be moved or touched... How are you flipping the pages? Slainte, -Loonook.

    Maintaining a fort - what is needed

    Refugees will kill your kingdom... And again, there is no reason why some sort of towns do not exist on a giiiiiant lake in the midst of a three kingdom allegedly neutral territory with no outlying cities... That feeds into an enormous lake that then has rivers it feeds out to each location...

    Maintaining a fort - what is needed

    So you have a lake that would probably be in the top 20 largest inland lakes (excluding the Great Lakes) in the US, but there are no villages or cities taking advantage? The lake you're speaking of would be a little smaller that Redwaters in Icewind Dale... In an unfavorable climate it...

    Famine in the world

    Using Plant Growth on food crops is economically untenable. See my previous notes? In a perfect situation of India with their super-crops, automobiles and extremely reduced caloric intake you're looking at a cost/person of 2 GP (an unskilled month's salary per year) to get a Druid to bless...

    Maintaining a fort - what is needed

    So it's a completely flat plain with a lake as one of its borders, and a river to the other side? What's the distance on that river? Food concerns can be met through cultivation of rice (if the temperatures are right) and irrigation... But I find it difficult to believe (unless this thing was...

    Maintaining a fort - what is needed

    Agreed on pretty much everything here. There are pricings for being near settlements (if you are near a metropolis for example you can save quite a bit.. But you also benefit from recovering a formerly 'lawless' area. That same keep would cost 10% less, as would multiple other factors such as...

    Maintaining a fort - what is needed

    Honestly I'd put it higher... The location is .43 acres, which in a typical low-density of a city would be ~ 30 individuals... However, this is a keep. Stronghold Builder's Guide, which is not horrible for measures if terrible for costs (it will cost you more to have a fancy bedroom than a +3...

    Maintaining a fort - what is needed

    Men at Arms: 1:3 of all men, preferably with a few spellcasters for any needs that may come up RE: major events. We'll count them as an additional 60ish men at least, who are going to have a LOT of downtime. They can serve as unskilled (your warriors) or semiskilled (Experts, PC class...

    Famine in the world

    Each casting of Plant Growth fixes one half mile radius, roughly around 1/5 of a square mile. 128 Acres of crops can be fixed... Now, with the basics of agriculture requiring around 2.4-10 acres/person to survive (2.4 acres is the current agricultural footprint for India, 10 would be living...

    Weapons of the Hundred Hands

    Hubris ความโอหัง Description: This longsword’s hilt bears four silver icons of maidens holding a sapphire sphere at its pommel. The blade is bone black, and when drawn from its bone white scabbard the oiled blade whispers with a sigh. Provenance: Hubris was once the blade of a powerful...

    Weapons of the Hundred Hands

    แองเจิลป่นปี้, Shattering Angel. Description: The sword's copper blade is shaped in a natural curvature similar to a blade of grass. All edges are sharp, while the hilt is made up of rich red leather. A fine silverwork guard in the shape of thorns falls, ending in a pommel of silver roses...

    Weapons of the Hundred Hands

    So I'm running a Campaign via IRC that is a low-magic e6 Pathfinder campaign... And one of the things I've been playing with is the series of weapons related to the Hundred Hands. If you read the GSG thread with some of its history you'll see that the founder of two large Empires came from a...
