Interesting dilemma. I would think that one check per lie would be sufficient, regardless of how many the questions are asked. Though on the other hand that is one of the key things with interrogation. Ask variations of the same question over a fatiguing span of time (and letting their...

.... that doesn't make sense, you can't agree with a question. You can not make potions of personal only spells, like Mirror Image. Expeditious Retreat can be cast on other people so it's a valid option. I'm not sure the source of your quote, but It doesn't seem to be the complete definition...

I never thought about it before. I wouldn't think they would in most games, like RPGA. Though, thinking about it for a moment, I don't know why not. It looks like by RAW they should be subject to SR. At least IF there are any weapon effects that are subject to spell resistance. Do you have...

I suppose I need to clarify/correct myself. Humanoids breathe, eat, and sleep. Just there arn't any mechanics for how much or concequences. The DM could get as creative as he wants in setting these up. Factoring in age, statistics for the second wind....

By RAW humans don't need to sleep. Obviously, it's assumed you do, but there arn't any rules for how many hours you need to sleep. The suggestions here are as good as any you will get, but there isn't any RAW on the subject. I am currently a player in a module that involves wolves howling all...

Seems like it would be nearly undetectable. Perhaps if there were an area effect spell that is partially snuffed out, but that's the extent of it. For non-visual area of effect spells it would take detect magic (or arcane sight) to notice the difference.

1d6/level max 15 for 1 round/level is quite powerful, and as far as I know wholy unprecidented. Usually duration spells are fixed (2d6 for flaming sphere, 2d4 for acid arrow) or at least do x/2 levels AND halved max dice. I don't know if the reflex-negates mitigates those advantages, also it...

My 2cp to the OP; If you are deciding whether your character would cast it, It's up to you and might be against your characters' sense of whatever. But that's you voluntarily adding a label or constraint for role play reasons. If you are a DM mention it to your player as something to consider...

I'm in agreement with the subdual damage, and was thinking 1d6 for simplicity, but d2 or d3 (perhaps d(movement/10)). But for the comical factor I would say movements stops and the character is stunned until the beginning of the next turn. Not a big effect for the first person, but the second...

I'm thinking that moving into it (or a melee attack) would count as interacting, same as using a standard action to examine it. I don't think ranged attacks into or out of it would cause a save. I think the same rules would apply for a wall as the fog, fwiw. I also don't see an issue with the...

Unfortunately you won't find an answer at all. I like The Blow Leprechaun's answer as the closest to RAW interpretation as any. There are also references to 'starlight' witch is not defined in 3.5, the only defined interpretation is shadowy illumination, which doesn't have a distance associated...

Plus it would have darkvision 60' and no need to sleep. Hello night watchman! Thanks for the template.

I'd go with the 8 guys on the back of the horse also. But then we use the FAQ suggested variant that all the images occupy the same square rule. So you know the occupied square and can't distiguish beteween them (by hitting the acutal caster). If you use the RAW that they occupy other squares...

I've played two pole-arm (quickdraw greatmace) trip-masters. They ranged from craptacular to underwhelming. First to trip you have to be facing something equal to or smaller than you and without four leggs. These were both from 5th to 8th level, and there were few chances where I had a chance...

I like this process too, then the DM could roll randomly to see which one he investigates first in the event time is a factor (like he has x number of minutes of invisibility to investigate). With the exception of the ones that take no further actions, like bringing dogs. [Issue resolved edit]...

Thank you all for your input, quite a bit to consider. As I feared in the first post, a lot of the answers focus on the example instead of a general rule to follow, but it does keep the thread active. While the actual solution involved a spell, it involved a divine spell and the BBEG happens to...

I'm not concerned what the BBEG's skill check is. I'm concerned about what the DC is. Also you generally can't take 20 on a knowlege check you either know it or don't. Which is why I also considered the arbitrary DC 15 for setting the trap. I suppose I could roll a D20 and add modifieres...

I would consider subjecting myself to a mind fog as against my nature. If I were you I would target him with a mind fog and hope he fails his save. You might be able to convince him to enter/stay in the area multiple rounds, but I think that's stretching it without some logical reason: ie...

As the disputes above show, It's up to DM's judgement of what someone's nature is. The closest mechanical ruling would be alignment based. I believe obviously suicidal acts are clarified. While not fatal, I would say self preservation instinct would make you resist a mind fog. However, I...

Those darn live action role players! :sick Anywhoo... back on topic. Oddly enough I can't find any actual RAW contradictions. The ones that come to my mind were 3.0 specific about tower shields and the shield spell. The FAQ does have a 'variant' form of mirror image, but they at least have the...
