    Is there a feat for udnead to use CHA instead of CON for HP bonus?

    Yupp! It's called Unholy Toughness (Ex), but it's from the Monster Manual III [see page 17, Boneclaw]. The formula is: Cha modifier x HD = bonus hp. Note that there is also Unholy Grace (Su) in Libris Mortis to add the Cha bonus on all STs and as a deflection bonus to AC. [see page 84, Angel of...

    Multiheaded creatures

    Hi! If we talk about SS, page 125, Special Attacks, then we read: "... the extra heads also have breath weapons", as opposed to, say, "the extra heads use the same breath weapon". Page 124, Two-Headed Hellish Guardian Hound, Combat, Breath Weapon (Su) reads: "Each of the creature's two heads...

    Sanctifying an Unholy Weapon

    Hi, Herremann! Look into the Book of Exalted Deeds, pages 119/120, Redeeming Evil Magic Items, Redeemed Unholy Weapon. I've had let a PC used an evil magic item in the same way as you suggested. I've even had let another PC pay the costs for a Lesser Planar Ally with evil magic items. It's a...

    Aberrant Paragon in Dragon #332 (What's the class HD?)

    Hi! If I read the PrC correctly [see Class Abilities, p. 46], I suspect you gain the "normal" HD for your former class. I.e., if you were a 1st-level barbarian taking a level in the Aberrant Paragon PrC you'd gain one d12 as HD. Kind regards

    questions on spellthiefs

    Hi! I'd read the corresponding text as "one spell per sneak attack". For the sake of game balance, as a DM, I'd rule that only one of the five options (steal spell, steal spell effect, steal energy resistance, steal spell-like ability, and steal spell resistance) may be used in combination...

    Divine Metamagic Rods or Wands?

    Hi! I think the question should be, "Is it possible to circumvent the spell level limit [4th] for wands using Divine Metamagic?" The expenditure of one turn/rebuke attempt does not change the spell level of the metamagicked spell, according to Divine Metamagic. Will a wand of [divine...

    Assay Resistance & Spell Trigger / Completion

    Hi! I don't think that overcoming spell resistance with the help of Assay Resistance would be limited to just spells cast personally. The bonus to overcome the target's spell resistance may be added to any caster level check made by a caster, may she be a real spellcaster or a character using...

    Hi! So tag a X,000 XP Cost to it and see yourself if the player in question casts the spell on a regular basis. If she does, the spell is overpowered. :] Kind regards
