You should probably check out Elements of Magic Revised. It was written by EN World's own Ryan Nock and list almost all of the things you are looking for in spell creation and at $8.95 for the pdf it's a steal. Basically there is magic... no Divine, Arcane or Psionic... you can choose how your...

It really depends on the game... - When I DM d20 Fantasy I use Black Dice with Red numbering... players call 'em the Black Dice of Death - When I play d20 Fantasy I use a Blue Marble set I bought years ago. - When I play d20 Steampunk/Eberron I use a Metal set that was give to me. - In Vampire...

To the OP, a Monster in combat can casually observe the Rogue... besides the Rogue would still need cover to initiate a Hide and being right behind the Monster is not enough. Hope this helps, William Holder

I’ll give you 6 of my personal favorites per Wizard Spell level... Level 0 Daze: Humanoid creature of 4 HD or less loses next action. Arcane Mark: Inscribes a personal rune (visible or invisible). Prestidigitation: Performs minor tricks. Light: Object shines like a torch. Ray of Frost: Ray...

True. As stated EoM has a use for the Scry Skill (yes a hold over from 3.0) that allows you not only to scry for people but objects and locations as well. In addition, you can combine your scry attempt with another spell (hence Rider Spell). It "cost" nothing extra it's just harder to do...

Thanks for the link, William Holder EDIT: What do you think about the MetaMagic suggestion above?

I haven't heard of this what source is it found in? Thanks for your time, William Holder

How about this... Make a MetaMagic Feat: Magical Relay. Magic Relay is a cantrip that can be cast on any object, it last for 1 day per caster level. As Move action you can shift your vision to "see" from any of the Magic Relays you have created as if you were standing there. (Remember there is...

Sounds like casting a spell through a Scry... Elements of Magic has rider spells that can do just that. I'll review that book tonight and let you know what I find tomorrow, best alternative I can offer at this time. Hopefully helpful, William Holder

Something as simple as this I would allow with either a cantrip or 1st level spell... Unseen Servant could do this... I always jump the gun and look for a military use for spells ;). William Holder

What would be the purpose? To be able to cast through the relay and use the target as follow up spell's point of origin? Example: Set up a Magic Relay 500ft away from castle walls... as the horde approaches cast Fireball through the relay and start the range from that point instead of on the...

You might be interested to try Elements of Magic. In that system there is no Arcane, Divine, or Psionic distinction. There is only Magic... you build custom spells defining area, range and effect. Very cool system, my group refuses to go back to standard D&D since we began it. Good gaming...

We have equated this to be... if your opposed Hide check beets their Spot check by 20 or more and you are effectively invisible to them. Anything less you are Hidden not Invisible. In our game we use a Blur effect (20% miss chance that stacks with concealment from other sources) for Hidden...

1) I'm not sure how the BBEG removed the air as I was not DMing at the time... The BBEG was a lich and didn't need air anyway so I've never thought to ask. 2) I may have gotten ahead of myself in the description... the party scryed for the BBEG, being a reoccurring villain we just really wanted...

On the topic of Illusion ideas my favorite was a complete replica of the BBEG's lair that was sealed off and a 'secret map' showed the location. The PC's scryed into it and saw the BBEG barking orders and pacing around his great room. The party had the mage teleport everyone inside. Once...

So HyperSmurf, does that mean it would be best to cast a 'glowy illusion' on top of the floor... to memic a poorly constructed illusion over top a pit trap when it's just really a floor? Even if they disbelieve the illusion it looks like a floor... then they would believe they saw the...

But a 'small' spiked chain has reach of 10' so a medium character could wield it in one hand though it would be a medium weapon instead of a light weapon in his off hand. So he would still take penalties for duel wielding ( off hand not being light ). Not sure what the Oversized Feat does...

Everything sounds wonderful... but this little gem just made my week Morrus! Thank you, William Holder

atomn, you are correct in that Kobolds are small... my mistake. :) Here is the link for that article: http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/we/20060420a
