Hey, thanks for the ideas guys, these are great! I particularly like the one where "The target is treated as the undead with regard to spells and effects." I also just found an article in Dragon 348: "Bestowed Curses" - variant curse effects for Bestow Curse and Bestow Greater Curse. I think...

Hi all, My character recently gained access to the Bestow Curse spell. Now this spell allows some creative customization of its effects, and I am wondering what variant curses ya'll have come up with, and what have your DMs allowed? What "other effects" are in line with the three listed...

Hmmm... if they did that, then I might actually buy it. I'm a sucker for amazingly large and lengthy adventures with way more detail than I'll ever use in my lifetime. Ozmar the Addict

Agreed. The biggest problem with the class is doing the SAME THING in EVERY BATTLE over and over. Its boring to play, and exasperating to DM. -Ozmar the Critical

Indeed, it can be dangerous!. With some DMs, using your familiar is inviting death. I once sent my toad familiar off with another PC while we fled battle (so we could locate each other later) and the familiar felt abandoned and left me! Ozmar the Rejected.

I believe familiars are constitutionally unsuitable for battle. I recently sent my familiar into combat with a sphinx. Predictably, in retrospect, he died, and now I have no familiar. Now, I thought that he would be relatively safe, because I had buffed him up with a number of spells, including...

Aw, c'mon. Doesn't hygiene give you a bonus hit point for every ten ranks, or something like that? And for the serious role-player, its got to be used more often than, say... Death Trance... Ozmar, the Recovering Rolemaster Addict

Thanks. I found it in MM3, on some of the undead (such as the Boneclaw) described therein. I couldn't find it in MM2. Oh well. Now I know what it is, and its not a feat, like I thought. I guess I could house rule it, but I am concerned that it would be too good. After all, if any undead could...

Hi all! I just know there's a feat that grants undead bonus hit points per hit die based on their Cha bonus. (Since they have no Con score, this usually increases their hit points dramatically.) Does anyone know what it is and where it can be found? I can't believe I can't find it in Libris...

How about "Flappy" ?

Cool. I got Heroes of Horror, and the Dread Necromancer base class looks very good. You do become a lich at 20th level, and in the meantime, you have lots of undead-creating goodness (or should that be badness?) anyway, its a great-looking class, and I got my DM's permission to use it. I am even...

"Tripping snakes"... I get it! :D How about tripping snakes... on a plane?! Snakes on a plane?! Ozmar the Amused

Hmmm... I may have to pick that up. That's one of the few books I don't actually own yet. I was thinking about several options for Necromancer classes. I'm a level 4 wizard so far... Its oddly frustrating that the spell for necromancers (animate dead) is lower level for clerics than it is for...

True... I guess I'm just interested in doing it because it is so rarely done. And just to see if I can (which is to say, if the DM allows it). And finally because its "in character" (said character being a worshipper of the Blood of Vol who greatly fears death, and seeks to extend his life...

Hmmm... interesting. So as a player-lich, then perhaps I just need to come up with some kind of mutually-agreeable ritual and run it by my DM? I'll have to come up with some ideas, then. Thanks! -Ozmar the Eager Lich Acolyte

Hello, How does one become a lich? I am interested in finding any "offical" description of the precise rituals and in-game requirements for a character to become a lich. I looked in the MM, but only found rules for creating the pylactery. I also looked in Libris Mortis, but didn't find any help...

Dopplegangers... perfect excuse. Next time, gak the kid, and say: "I thought he must have been a doppleganger! Why else would he attack me?" Actually, on a more serious note (well, not really, but...) "in game", the characters certainly have reason to suspect magical influence. If a character...

Interesting theory. But that would, IMO, be unsatisfying, because it would let him off the hook for the evil he has done. If evil only needs for good men to do nothing, imagine how much more evil can be done when N/NE people like Baltar actively underimine everything good people are striving to...

Yes, hence the mental illness. Anyway... just a thought: killing someone in the D&D world may be seen as less of a "moral evil" than killing someone in the Real World. After all, in the Real World, death is final. In D&D, depending on the setting, death can be reversed. Among particularly...

Mars didn't rebel in Futurama. Of course, its half-owned by the Wong family, so maybe that had something to do with it...
