    A baddy for your concideration.

    I've never seen the lesser Worm-That-Walks template; where's that from? I'm presuming that the Worm-Smite ability comes from that, since I've never seen it before.

    Challenging without killing

    Question's difficult-to-impossible to answer without knowing one critical variable: what level are these characters? AC that low suggests very low level, but it's not certain.

    Pathfinder 1E Hatred Domain in Pathfinder?

    That 3.0 power doesn't look "too good" to me, if the "x" in "x rounds" is set equal to the Cleric level of the character using it. Seriously, a +2 bonus for 1 measly round? I'd take a Bless spell over that any day- it, at least, lasts a full minute. A Ranger's Favored Enemy bonus is similar, but...

    Interesting Cleric

    Any deity that would take away spells just for having that sort of problem is unworthy of worship. That said, a demon seems a likely choice for the source of the problem, yes. Since she's NG herself, that opens up another possibility, if the deity is actually CG- the CG deity might have given...

    What should I write for my Campaign Setting?

    For building a campaign from the ground up, and with no information about the players or starting territory, the question can't be answered honestly by anything except "all of the above." Different players find different sorts of information useful- serious roleplayers who like writing character...

    Does anyone grow their characters organically anymore?

    I also mix the two strategies. Usually I don't make a "build" as such, from 1-20; I build the character at whatever the starting level is (occasionally, even making deliberately suboptimal choices because I think it's what the character did at whatever level the choice was made), and then keep a...

    Ultimate Combat previews have started!

    Agreed. What about a Barbarian, exactly, needs to change when (s)he's in a city as opposed to wilderness? I can see many Rage Powers not fitting very well, but an entire Archetype seems like overkill to me (just invent new Rage Powers if that's the problem).

    Ultimate Combat previews have started!

    Several things on the list interest me. Achaeologist Bard- can we reasonably expect Indiana Jones here? Mysterious Stranger Gunslinger- is this the Man With No Name from A Fistful of Dollars and its sequels? Kensai returns- as a Magus Archetype? That will be very interesting to see- I...

    Spell Storing+crit?

    This does look like a gray area in the rules to me. Personally, I'd rule as GM that you can indeed crit with the spell, as long as the original threat roll was a natural 20. Spells don't get threats on anything but that, so I wouldn't let you get around it by using (say) a Greatsword and getting...

    Monster - Crossroads Devil

    You call them Pactigons lower in the Ecology text; this should actually be in the monster title/name at the top if it's a racial name like Cornugon (Horned Devil). The Devil's Deal ability has some issues- the text is confusing, and the ability is absolute such that even a deity can't break...

    Illusions: damage and mimicing other spells

    @Whizbang, there is in PF a Conjuration spell called Create Pit- it's in the APG. Unlike an illusion, it creates a real pit that you can really fall in to and hurt yourself. Level 2. There's a whole series of them, Create Pit is just the lowest one. Those are what the OP is referring to there...

    Bubblegum Barbarian

    You know, regarding the color issue, it occurs to me that there's an easy answer in the Core Rules: the Prestidigitation spell. Sure, it only lasts an hour, but the very existence of the effect implies that it's possible to change colors magically- which surely means that above 1st level you'd...

    CMD for a willing target? How low can it go?

    This is so you can calculate distance Rushed, correct? I think you're on the right track, but personally I'd keep the base 10 as just representing the willing creature's body "being there." Think of it this way: if the willing Rushee acted first in the round, and is now out of movement, then...

    Suggestions for a new DM?

    This says he had fun in the first session. Capability to run a game is a skill that is best learned by doing, which is a true statement for high-level games as well as low-level ones. Therefore, the better course is to give constructive advice for how to run a game that high. No matter how...

    Suggestions for a new DM?

    If you actually read the OP's reply to my question of what the first session was like, you'll see that he did, in fact, throw a Jabberwock at them- and it went down in 3 rounds without putting much more than scratches on them. As a GM who has actually run 20th level adventures, this does not...

    Suggestions for a new DM?

    Sure there is. Deities & Demigods has stats for lots of gods. And then there's the Immortal's Handbook, though that was only released as a PDF. But I used the IH to run two games with divine PCs all the way up the ladder until they were many times more powerful than the deities they'd started...

    Bubblegum Barbarian

    OTOH, pink would lull potential victims into a false sense of security wouldn't it? Plus, if she runs into any Evil things that mock her for wearing pink, why that's just a wonderful excuse for more mayhem and destruction (starting with the foolish demon/devil/whatever that mocked her). :devil...

    Suggestions for a new DM?

    Very few people on this board have run games beyond level 15 or so; this site is the origin of the E6 game style (where level 6 is the cap before "Epic"). I'm one of the few who's gone really high, though I've never done it with PF as yet (still updating my old campaign setting from 3.5 to...

    [Barbarian smacks orc to death with her weapon] Paladin: Hey! We were trying to interrogate him! Barbie: He said this leather made me look fat. Seriously! ME! FAT! He had to go. Paladin: [splutters] But... but... you could have just threatened him! Barbie: I pulled [weapon] out and waved it in...

    I need me some tentacles.

    Actually, it's from the APG. This would fall under the "any online resource" portion of your previously-stated access. :) Try here for a start. EDIT: Aha! I knew they'd include a direct link to the Eidolon section! Inserted into hyperlink. Good suggestion, Dingo, BTW- I agree with you. Once...
