    I'm out of ideas

    A huge area with little civilization says "druids!" to me. Maybe the party comes upon a low-level druid fighting one of those random swamp monsters. PC's to the rescue, a little chit-chat and the druid takes them to a druid conclave or village or something. Head druid offers party assistance and...

    DR clarification

    This is probably a stupid question but it came up and I didnt have a great answer. In the following scenario: A character uses twoweapon fighting and attacks a monster with DR 5/slashing, with non-slashing weapons. Both attacks hit for 6 and 4 dmg. Am I correct in saying that the monster will...

    Favored soul , balanced?

    One of my players wanted to play a favored soul. After looking the class over I said sure, but was wondering what enworld's collective wisdom is on the subject. Are favored soul's a balanced/overpowered/underpowered class? Is there anything I should watch out for? Thanks

    Need help with my BBEG fight

    What about having gravity act very odd in the cave. People can walk on the walls, with a good jump can move from floor to ceiling no problem, stuff like that. Esp if a god is about to get released, maybe other odd things start happening, say a AMF shows up suddenly and randomly moves around...

    LA and racial HDs

    You can't elect to simply "Not take" the LA, nor can you elect to "Not take" the racial HD. Its not something you can elect to take or not take. You could also ask "Can I make a halfing but not take the size small", it doesnt make sense. Chewbacca lives on Endor but is from Kyasssk(sp?), this...

    The Font of Useless Knowledge

    Weeee, more! -Anyone that stares into a large mirror long enough without blinking can see their mirror opposite on the other side, taunting them. Drinking large quantities of alcohol shortens the length of time one must stare into the mirror. -A cockatrice can be cooked into a stew that, when...

    I dunno , I think a comfy chair would be too small anyway.

    The Font of Useless Knowledge

    I dunno if I'd call those useful. The hangover one is only useful if that inn is actually close by. Thats also assuming you actually do anything rules-wise for a hangover. Most of those can be classified as flavor, although a couple could certainly lead to the PC's to try some stuff out/seek...

    Its the spaghetti approach. Throw everything at the wall and see what sticks. :D Which aren't useless ?

    The Font of Useless Knowledge

    Gah, I can't stop! -There is a single word that can instantly transform a fully charged Wand of Fireballs into a fully charged Wand of Magic Missiles. Unfortunately anyone speaking this word also dies instantly. -The milk from a Night Hag can be made into a cheese that is a delicacy to Drow...

    The Font of Useless Knowledge

    -The oldest Llving Orc is named Zitspit of the Mudeater Tribe. He is a hermit, 1200 years old, a sorceror, and has dementia. His cats' name is Poofykins. -Elves used to harvest Black Puddings and make wine out of them. Their techniques have been lost. -A wand created from the wood of a Ssisarcal...

    Good Scientist class

    Kind of reminds me of Chaositech from Ptolus and whatever other book it was that that originated in. That or just an expert or rogue. Lots of skill points, you're essentially talking about character background right ? Although, If he's got no combat prowess or magic, then whats the point of...

    Darkvision and mirrors?

    Yes a mirror reflects darkvision, because mirrors are mystical portals to a plane of mirrors and do not concern themselves with photons and wavelengths and reflect stuff because....the faq says so? <waves hands> Don't try to explain it with real world physics, just say "Its dark. You are eaten...

    Odd but legal?

    I can picture it in my head and its Very Possible. I have an enemy to my right, I stab him with my sword in my right hand and he falls, I then swap the weapon to my left hand and stab the enemy to my left, without having to turn my whole body around. Of course DnD doesnt have facing but...

    Odd but legal?

    True enough, but thats a bit ancillary to the core Q of: Can I use the same weapon with TWF for both attacks(primary hand and off hand)? Switching the sword from one hand to the other would be one free action.

    Odd but legal?

    An unarmed strike, or say, spiked gauntlet would qualify as two weapons. You seem to be willing to accept that you can start an attack with a weapon in your offhand, and not use that weapon. So whats the difference between dropping the offhand weapon and quickdrawing one, and dropping the...

    Odd but legal?

    You're wielding an unarmed strike in your off-hand, couldn't that work ?

    Dominate Person

    And Dominate person calls out protection from evil, but it doesnt look totally clear cut. I could see Prot/evil simply preventing new commands and supressing the link but target still acting under previous orders. Similar to how it says it can be exercised if on the same plane. But would not...
