Oh thank you for that insightful comment. Maybe I should have said: It looks like it was nearly wholesale pulled from an earlier edition and not adjusted correctly for 3rd edition(like if it had a reference to THAC0). Not at home to check my 2nd edition book though to see how much it actually...

Sounds like the players are either running with a bunch of different rules from previous DM's, or they simply dont understand the rules(ie, they can't add/don't know all the rules) and the previous DM didnt call them out on it. I've had this problem before with a player, "Create a level 10...

Why don't they need to eat or sleep? Not really an Easy way to make an army since it costs lots of exp, could just hire one? I agree it would need some tending(at least to activate it twice a day), cloning vats would be neat, or some kind of teleportation/replicator type device. Or even a...

Also Shadow Conjugation ( Illusion (Shadow) )says: I'd say its as real as real gets(also, the effect is One Duplicate Creature, so assuming normal english definition of duplicate..). There's no will disbelief saving throw so the only difference is they have a special process for healing(The...

I would have to whole-heartedly disagree and say the answer isn't obvious at all. If the rogue is scouting ahead of the party and searching for traps, finds one, and disables it, what has the rest of the party done ? "Risked" standing around? The rogue should get the XP. If the party...

I would agree with you and run it the same way(but certainly can appreciate the debate either way). I do notice though that Ettin's don't get anything special wrt AoO's...oversight probably?

Well, giving everyone full XP would also tell the two players "Hey, it doesnt matter if we split up, we'll all get xp." or tells the one player "Hey, I dont have to risk my neck and I'll still get XP." I'd give the players XP as you laid out 2366 & 1566, maybe give them all an extra 200 story...

Voting booths are in Anti-magic fields?

Its that a little bit of the chicken and the egg? if you actually stocked/shipped in the time you said you would some of this stuff then people would order more often it instead of coming here going "amazon is taking forever to ship me something and not accurately reflecting ship time, i'll...

where does it say so, on dragon disciple template or ? (not trying to be snarky, I honestly don't know what rule you're referring to)

Like frank said, no, that would make you waste your contingency :(, because the minion that casts magic missle at you for all of 3 points would trigger it. Unless you're expecting the first hit you take to be a really big one? Maybe something like "if i ever reach half my hit points" ...

Indeed, shouldnt the ice have floated to the surface ? :O (disregard if this was in an underwater cave or what have you).

Correct, its the "Shadow" template from manual of the planes, for creatures native to the plane of shadow. So you can slap it on like a bugbear or whatever. 20% miss chance sounds like a fair value.

So this would probably be too powerful to put in the hands of a PC...ok.

Shadow Blend (Su): In any conditions other than full daylight, a shadow creature can disappear into the shadows, giving it nine-tenths concealment. Artificial illumination, even a light or continual flame spell, does not negate this ability. A daylight spell, however, will. Is this hiding? If...

You're the DM? Rule0. Give him max hp and CR+1.

Ptolus is a bit expensive(120 $$ ) but only the DM would need to get the book. Its mainly a mix of urban adventure/intrigue & dungeoncrawling.

But , why does Temporal Statis only affect creatures? What if I've baked the best pie ever but can't eat it for say, 50 years, and need to preserve/keep-it-safe from orcs?

Glassteel some play in this thread. The level does seem a bit high though. You could just have a shop that sells windows with hardened glass. I actually just did this in my Ptolus game, just kinda guessed them at 150gp per window iirc. Seemed reasonable.
