"Fetch and the Bad Penny" sounds like a childrens' mystery novel. "The cat" (because it came back)

Give the barbarian an opportunity to class into cat burglar. Cats are weird, make it act a little oddly. It's just a normal cat, but the metagame knowledge of the existence of these classes will add some paranoia. :)

Should be fixed now.

Aquatic gelatinous cubes: Deadly.

I've seen a statistical analysis of the Rolemaster critical hit/fumble system. Apparently if the system is used to model armies more units die from friendly fire than combat with the enemy.

Maybe converted Efreeti are the origin of the noble djinni (who also grant wishes).

All the precedents for Helms of Opposite Alignment I've seen haven't given any feedback about failed attempts to change alignment. Given that there's no description in the item of effects from failed attempts, your stretch of reasoning falls into fiat. That said, put him into a deep, dreamless...

Well, it's hard to go wrong with a druid 20 as long as you take natural spell. Looking into wildshape forms and good animal companion choices is highly recommended. Augment Summoning is useful as well, but honestly it's almost impossible to mess up a druid 20 badly. Stealth isn't too...

Sorry, but I think it would be pretty easy to cast detect magic on the helmet. It becomes nonmagical after a successful use.

"Lawful characters tell the truth, keep their word, respect authority, honor tradition, and judge those who fall short of their duties. Chaotic characters follow their consciences, resent being told what to do, favor new ideas over tradition, and do what they promise if they feel like it." I...

I don't see the analogy at all. A Clockwork Orange had a system that could just as easily have been accomplished with remote controlled injector and very good surveillance. The treatment did nothing whatsoever to change the fundamental person, just provided extremely prompt and harsh...

But those effected by the Helm Of Opposite Alignment are happy with their new alignment. Wouldn't the Efreeti then appreciate the person who brought him this happiness, and new insight?

I suppose you could also rule that changing alignment also changes what type of genie he is. A Djinn or Janni would be less unbalancing.

Why? Helm goes on, helm comes off, helm goes on, helm comes off, helm goes on, helm comes off, helm goes on, helm comes off, helm goes on, helm comes off, helm goes on, helm comes off, helm goes on, helm comes off, helm goes on, helm comes off, helm goes on, rolled a 1.

They're a caster? They can make items? Tell them about the one level xp gravy train. Otherwise, well, they'll catch up if you're using the xp system right.

To counter the whole "dwarves hate the environment" trope, there's a fairly easy reinterpretation of their actions. Dwarves don't live underground and mine because they hate plants. They live underground so they have as little negative influence upon the environment as possible. Dwarven...

I've seen that speculation on the giantitp forums as well.

Well, it's obvious when you think about it. When you take bread from France to the USA it becomes pain.

I second the dollar store advice.

Dude, chill out. The whole point of this trick is to have a melee character with limited spellcasting at first level. Yes, the character won't keep up with full casting later on. But, from the original post he "isn't a caster of any real merit", and, besides, that's an issue with any meleer...
