    HELP! DM made mistakes, doesent want to scrap game!

    Note: While it's true that dragons often have hordes, those hordes are even more often well hidden, and dragons aren't always at home. Indeed, how do you think they got that horde? They left home and killed YOUR ADVENTURERS! (er.. ok, previous ones, but the point is that if the dragon dies now...

    HELP! DM made mistakes, doesent want to scrap game!

    Hear hear! I agree. It's almost always bad form to destroy the party's treasure, it should be a last resort and pretty much you should talk with them first and let them know *why* (IE: "Sorry guys, I have to take away your stuff because I can't handle it." Along this line, you still want to...

    D&D 3.x Assassin in 3.5: How did I miss this?

    Nope, it's YOU who must be evil to be an assassin. Lots of other campaigns hand wave that restriction away. It's a pretty silly restriction after all. But, um, yea, of course it has to BE on their spell list to be able to use it as a wand. There're still a good number of useful spells on that...

    Is there such a thing as a Biomancer?

    I haven't played it or seen it played, but I did save it and offered it up a few times in some of my games (along with several other things) as a potential path PC's could take. Once someone planned on taking it, but his PC died tragically, and he came back with a different concept altogether.

    Is there such a thing as a Biomancer?

    Interestingly enough, someone did once make a Biomancer class. The same guy who wrote the Invisible Blade PrC. I don't know if it was ever published, but here's a link to his website, the secion with different PrC's he's made (including, of course, the Biomancer)...

    Reincarnate - What's your favored class?

    I've looked at the other racial traits, and to be honest I'd give some and not others, depending on how I interpreted them (as a GM adjudicating, and if I decided that they were mental or physical). Physical thing's I'd allow to carry through, mental I would not. I'll agree that the spell is...

    Reincarnate - What's your favored class?

    The most compelling arguement (IMO, of course) states that your favored class remains the same. Physical stats change, mental ones remain. You keep your past skills, feats (including the human bonus feat, if applicable), knowledges, experience (minus the one level). Your mind, and therefore your...

    Warforged and the Monk - doable?

    Doable? Not only doable, but arguably the best race for a monk in the game. A WF Monk gets full healing from Laying on of Hands. It specifically says so. The "normal" armor of the WF doesn't interfere in any way. It specifically says so. (Adamantine or Mithril body, on the other hand, do...

    NPC to PC

    Yes, I have. In fact, one time I was GMing in a shared world (with PC's in different areas and not interacting), and had the very NPC I created show up as my PC in the other game on that world. That was interesting and fun.

    It doesn't. And yes, NOW we can!

    Craft magic item: quick question

    Of course, there are existing wonderous items that grant a +10 to a skill check (Chameleon cloak). Assuming that exists in your campaign, and wasn't specifically excluded.

    Tripping-unarmed only?

    And, of course, certain weapons are trip weapons, allowing you to make a trip attempt using the weapon.

    Argh!! Useless Rogues

    And it gives you the ability to use Cure X wands (and every other wand with a spell on the Ranger's spell list). A very useful addition. For undead, you can dip into cleric. There's a first level swift casting clerical spell (Grave Strike I think) that allows you to sneak attack undead. Of...

    The "expectation" of house rules

    And here at first I thought you meant that it had to be a size larger for you to GET that crit in the first place. And that one I liked. I'd also be ok with an auto-confirm of a crit on a creature a size larger than you are. (It's vital organs are so big, how can you miss? Hitting a dragon in...

    Argh!! Useless Rogues

    Lords of Madness, eh? (Strokes chin). Tell me more of this "Madness" of which you speak.

    The "expectation" of house rules

    No problem. I always announce myself as a deviant right away... er... umm.. Wait, what was the question again?

    The "expectation" of house rules

    It kind of depends how lawful a game you're talking about. If it's a game that doesn't go into extreme detail about the rules, has some rules outlined and that's it ... in that case I would not expect so many house rules (because the GM is free to make up a majority of spot decisions). However...

    Heward's Handy Haversacks in Haversacks

    Oh, please. This is a magic user item, obviously. Can you say "dominate"?

    Heward's Handy Haversacks in Haversacks

    Yup, that was day one. However, apparently we're pretty far from day one, and the magecrafters have made several innovations to this type of item. In fact, while it "may" be dangerous to do certain things (there are certainly rumors, stories, and legends (knowledge: Local) about it), in reality...

    Argh!! Useless Rogues

    I loves me some shadowdancer levels. Very useful for a rogue. As for a level or three of mage... well, if you take three levels of mage you just *have* go to Arcane Trickster, for full caster progression with full sneak attack progression, and the occasional "improvised sneak attack" (class...
