Funny you should mention that, because this was brought up in another thread I found. In summary, no, that's for Wild Shape, though someone in the thread brought forth the idea of creating a home brewed magical enhancement. This does not help me however, because I'm looking for rulings through...

If that's the case, we've found the bypass that allows such spells should Shothragot of "Essence of Evil" ever show up. The "Seals of Binding" makes all calling, summoning, and teleportation magic cease to function. Because Shades is an Illusion (Shadow) spell that mimics such spells, there is...

This has just become my most favorite spell, and hated due to the headaches it's already giving me. Don't think I have the brain or will power to think on this yet. Need a little more time to sort things out. :-S

Apologies for bringing up an old topic, but it's this discussion that tries to address what has been bothering me for a long time. I've read through the SRD, read through the FAQs and Errata and even bought the official rulebook for 3.5, and yet I can't see any ruling that a hybrid cannot wear...

As was discussed in a previous thread that talked about SR, it's more a hindrance than a boon. I still seem to like it though, especially the idea of an Epic Half Golem with near perfect SR (as was discussed in linked thread). Will say this: SR certainly makes you think what spells NPCs should...

Alright, so I'm jumping onto on after reading this, because it just makes me head desk. The way I've always seen it, Law, Chaos, Good and Evil are not just ideals, but actual living entities that are in constant battle. PCs and NPCs are the masks which live out this battle while the Gods they...

I adore a lot of the articles WotC has made for those columns. Many a good idea I would like to try out at some point, including Epic Level Monsters. I plead the fifth. :uhoh: BUT!!! I will say the idea of a Half Dragon Assassin Vine never came to mind until last week when I was toying with a...

What you are reading is the Critical Damage Multiplier of a Greataxe. Most damage numbers don't show the x2 (or double damage) Critical Hits cause, because it's a waste of space. Due to the fact the Greataxe has a different Critical Damage Multiplier, it's noted in the text. Other weapons have...

At first I thought, "that can't be right..." Then I was like, "How about that!" So I'm very curious as to how such a union of creature came about. I can get a Half Dragon Mind Flayer, but this makes me confuzzled.;)

"The PCs are the Heroes" doesn't really ring as "the good guys" to me. More along the lines as the people whose story we are following. Their importance is up to the PCs themselves, but they should feel important in something for the world you're providing. Saying the campaign world is bigger...

Why I've chosen to nerf my PCs playing as Evil. I used to having the ruling their character would instantly become an NPC if they did anything to make them as such, but I've since become lenient, and simply said they will not be able to start as Evil. Should they become as such, then that's...

This makes me smile. Not only because it's an interesting idea, but I tried the feat out as well with my Ogre Cleric of Zagyg. Good times.:lol: The one thing to remember is that Touch of Golden Ice is an Exalted Feat from Book of Exalted Deeds. Getting them is different from regular feats, as...

Sounds appropriate enough, if it was a necessary sacrifice to seal away an evil they could never slay. Every action requires a reaction in order to balance such a power shift, right? In any other circumstance...ouch.:eek: In other news, I assume they went about rebuilding and saving the almost...

Actually, it makes perfect sense, even with that in mind. The original creature was a Half-Dragon something or other (probably human, though others can apply). The Mind Flayers captured it and used it as a host. Thus, the Half-Dragon Mind Flayer was "born".B-) Now me? I'm all for a...

Don't know what's too ridiculous about it. It's meant to be fun, right? And the idea of a Half Dragon Mind Flayer doesn't sound half bad if given enough room to work with. Double the natural weapons and speacial attacks either one of them has on their own...what class is it progressing as...

Flyby Attack and Improved Flyby Attack. Monster/General feats from SRD. Need to use these with some harpies I've conceived against my PCs should they ever want to rebuild a miles long bridge again. Frustrating? Yes. And they will need to learn tactics to compensate or else. :p

My apologies on posting to a fairly old topic, but reading this had me so appalled I felt it necessary. I'm puzzled at how this all played out, as you say the PCs walked all over Thazidun, mostly due to the fact they had weapons and protections to conceivably fight him on a level the gods who...

If all else, Limited Wish is your friend at all times, due to its ability to replicate any spell of 5th level or lower (and 6th lvl Sor/Wiz spells, but whatever). Don't know if you can learn it, but it's an idea. This late in the campaign, it's going to be rough from here on out.

Off the bat, you could delve into poisons the way they are presented in Pathfinder, though I don't know how that would change a lot of the game. I do know there are poisons and diseases the work by the round rather than every minute, but don't quote me bro. There's also Melf's Acid Arrow...

Even I cringe at the thought of that. It begs so many questions, like what were they collectively fighting for? How did they all get there with their detailed backgrounds? Didn't they have a choice to run away? What guarentee did the DM have the PCs would follow through, and what would happen if...
