    Resting to regain HPs

    Any period of 8 hours of uninterrupted rest during the day will result in the healing 1 hp/level. If the entire day is spent in bedrest, 2 hp/level are healed that day. If your 8 hours of rest are interrupted by battle, you do not get any healing for that period of rest and would have to...

    Do you have to make an attack when using Combat Expertise?

    Here's a question: Say you move your movement and then attack with Combat Expertise. Do you get the AC bonus at the beginning of the round while you're moving?

    Getting Rid of Level Drain

    Vampires shouldn't have a level drain with their slam attack. I can't think of any literature in which vampires had an enervating touch. They should just have their Con drain blood sucking attack. Once a victim is dropped to 0 Con, the victim dies and rises the next night as a vampire spawn...

    New Domain: Agony

    I think your granted power should do something about inflicting nonlethal damage, since nonlethal damage is the closest thing to just pain that you can find in the game. Maybe "your attacks are especially painful. For a number of rounds per day equal to your cleric level, your melee attacks...

    Sorcerers and Spell Components

    The way sorcerers are described in the flavor text, it doesn't make sense for them their spells to have components. Components also means verbal, somatic, focus, and experience, not just materials. Giving them Eschew Materials doesn't solve the issue. It doesn't make any more sense for a...

    Alternative to the wizard and sorcerer

    I would say that it's also tempting to go into a PrC from the cleric and rogue base classes as well. I think the problem is with the PrC system, however. Anyway, I think the arcanist should have a separate book for each school of magic, not for each spell level. Schools of magic seem very...

    Simple Solution to the Ubiquitous Breastplate and Chain Shirt

    You are right, the armor system as it stands forces certain choices over others. I agree with increasing the AC bonuses for the heavier armors. I think that increasing the bonuses from Dodge and Mobility is fine for a home campaign. My favorite solution to this issue comes from somebody...

    Humanoid - Monstrous Humanoid

    That sounds like a good way to go, Stormrunner.

    Leader of the pack is the size of a horse?

    I know that animal companions don't increase in size. However... According to the (3.0) MM it is possible for a normal wolf to grow to Large size. In real life, there are no wolves that big. According to the (3.0) MM it is possible for a normal owl to grow to Medium and Large size. In...

    Complete Warrior, anybody got it? What's in it?

    I never bought any of the splatbooks. Is this a good book for me?

    Leader of the pack is the size of a horse?

    I have been learning about advancing animals in helping my DM deal with the first druid in our group. Do you realize that several animals grow to gigantic proportions in D&D as they get older? The wolf starts out as a Medium creature. By the time you get done advancing it, it is the size of...

    The rogue - is it a necessary class?

    Some people say that the rogue class is needed/good. However, do you know anyone that plays a straight-classed rogue? Everyone I've seen just uses the rogue class to enhance their fighter's skills and damage or else they go into a PrC by 6th level. The rogue has too few HPs to be a decent...

    The rogue - is it a necessary class?

    This is exactly right. Heck, you don't even really need a bard since so few people really use the social skills.

    Teleporting into water

    You shouldn't be able to cast spells underwater unless you can breathe water. If you wanted to allow an air-breathing spellcaster to cast a spell underwater, I would say let him him do it with no Concentration check. However, he would have to immediately start making Constitution checks or...

    Prestige Classes - A Crutch?

    I don't like the structure of most PrCs. I think that if you can take a PrC at 6th level, then it should have 15 levels to take you 20. I prefer new or alternate base classes to PrCs. I was really pleased with the recent Dragon magazine article that gave alternate cleric and druid classes...

    Druids and advanced animals

    This has probably been discussed before, but do animal companions increase in size as per the MM when the druid advances? Can druids choose larger, "advanced" forms of animals for their wildshape, as long as they have the requisite levels? These questions are my DM who has a new druid in the...

    Children of High Level Characters

    Maybe you should reconsider the idea that low level adventurer = poor person. It may be old school D&D, but it's a very limited idea. The child of a wealthy, high-level adventurer would be given access to the best training and minor magic items. They certainly wouldn't be low level for long...

    Does anyone miss the generic cleric?

    I bought the 1E module Village of Hommlet, and I noticed that in that setting, there was the generic LG church of St. Cuthbert, a generic N druidic religion, and then the demonic religions that the PCs had to fight. The FR novel Darkwalker on Moonshea even made the differentiation between the...
