    Wand- Enervation+Improved Invis+Nondection=...

    You can't be invisible in an antimagic field so who cares? True strike would be stopped provided you were in the fields effect when it was up (ie not shooting a bow at a target). Lets look at the ACTUAL wording of non-dectection. "The warded creature or object becomes difficult to detect by...

    Can you cast spells if swallowed whole?

    Being swallowed seems to follow the rules for being grappled pretty closely (tiny weapons allowed, etc). I'd say you could cast V only and then you need a Concentration roll. Which lets you cast Teleport, the only spell you probably want to cast at that point.

    Cast See Invisibility on others or not?

    No assumptions on the See Invisible- see my earlier post. As far as using detect magic to find invisble things, its not too effective, unless your foe can't move, in which case its not too hard to pin them down anyway. It takes 3 rounds of concentration assuming your foe doesn't move out of the...

    Vampire Demons?

    Take the best of the two, though a case could be made for adding together elemental resistances.

    Cast See Invisibility on others or not?

    The Sages response: Can see invisibility be cast on other people? No. The description lists no targets, but with a range it would seem to indicate it could be. On the other hand its description seems to lean towards just the caster (ie "you can see...", etc), with the range being the...

    Skill Focus on Speak or Read/Write Language

    You become an English (or Elvish) teacher. Basically you wasted the feat, but the DM would have to say you were an elegantly spoken person in that language and know all the proper diction and grammar rules. :)

    Horizontal falling objects?

    I'll get a loaded tractor trailer and hit you at about 6.5 miles per hour and you see if you say oof or we rush you to the emergency room. Another example would be running into a wall (without knowing it was there and stopping yourself or preparing for the impact). Only the wall would keep going...

    Suggestions for multiclass

    Bards are the WORST class to multiclass. That being said if you really must take a class make it a prestige class like mentioned before. Preferably the Virtuoso or maybe Harper Mage if in the FR. Something that gives you spell levels and if possible also keeps your Bardic Knowledge going...

    Horizontal falling objects?

    If your mathematically inclined you can figure out the physics behind it and use the falling rules. F=ma F-Force (ie damage from falling) m=mass a= acceleration (due to gravity when falling 32'/sec roughly) Also useful is s=1/2 at^2 t=time in seconds s= distance fallen I'm sure you...

    Need help making a undead killing cleric

    Definately take Craft Arms and Armor for Ghost Touch weapons and armor, and a disrupting mace. Otherwise its not overly hard to make a cleric an undead destroying machine, its what they are made for. I agree that Sun and Healing are your best domains- both have spells that are great against...

    Ha! I am invincable, Prove me wrong!

    You'd have to do actual damage to him, not subdual damage. Which is the issue if I recall. As far as ECL, the current ECL rules put this guy at somewhere around level 15. Troll +11, 1/2 Dragon +4, with no classes (IIRC on the ECLs). So hes unkillable, but with as few hit points as he's likely...

    Is a '1' an auto-failure for saving throws?

    I can't even find it in the FAQ myself. So far I have no references to a 1 being an auto fail save or a 20 an auto success. 0. I searched the FAQ manually and then used a search for natural 20 which turned up a ruling on attacks hitting on 20s and missing on 1's. It even mentioned skill checks...

    Is a '1' an auto-failure for saving throws?

    I'm inclined to agree, its not be found anywhere - save in the item damage section in magic. Its been effectively changed by previous erratas and the FAQ, but the actual books fail to have the one sentence (or even few words) that spell it out. The strange part is that I swore I saw it, because...

    Is a '1' an auto-failure for saving throws?

    PHB p.123 "Automatic Misses and Hits: A natural 1 (the d20 comes up 1) on the attack roll is always a miss. A natural 20 (the d20 comes up 20) is always a hit." I have to get to work so I can't find the one for saves. (Also look in the glossary under automatic hit and miss)

    Whats the ECL of a bugbear?

    Actually bugbears DO get Alertness. They don't have any class at all as written in the DMG. Goblins on the other hand have 1 level of warrior, and have selected Alertness as thier 1st level feat. Bugbears Alertness feat is part of being a bugbear, like Gnolls and Power Attack. Neither race...

    The weapon is considered blessed...

    Look in MM under demons/devils/rakshasa. Individual descriptions of almost any devil or demon should answer the question.

    Undead and Age?

    Physical stats shouldn't change. Being dead is a much more serious status than being old I'd say. As far as mental stats, it seems to make sense to let them get the bonuses for living so long, though I'd cap it at the maximum age group for the living race.

    Cast See Invisibility on others or not?

    I would say you can cast it on other people, though the description is vague it also doesn't say a target. Other detection spells have "Area:Quarter circle emanating from you...", but this one does not. I've allowed it in the past to give non-spell casters a chance to fight invisible opponents...

    stats for broadsword

    My bad, they changed terminology on me. You are correct, cutlass is the "broadsword" from 2e. Long swords are the archetypical broadswords from the middle ages. Basically a long slashing blade (no basket hilt). If you want to make them do 2d4 damage, I guess you can go right ahead, but just be...

    Hide Skill?

    I add the 20 to thier Hide roll. Good luck finding a guy you couldn't normally see if hes not invisible. If he is invisible you'll never spot him. Being invisible should be an advantage to anyone. If you are the predator standing there and people don't usually see you, imagine how hard it will...
