Wow. Nice. But shouldn't that give the Greeks an edge? A big one? If all of the Greek Sea Gods are on the player's side, the Persians are pretty much **ed no matter what. Just the sheer number of them exceeds that of the whole Persian pantheon, and they aren't some peaceful gods of seaweed...

Hmm, well, since we must assume the formians are willingly under the control of the Hive and the ability is not listed as Mind-affecting, logic states there is no need to establish a connection of such strength. Formians are ultimately replaceable, and there are lots and lots of high level...

Hmm... The castle is still on top of a mountain, is it not? Look around for tunnels and old mines. Maybe there are creatures in the Underdark who'd prefer you as a neighbour over orcs, giants and goblinoids, like Deep Dwarves, Drow, a Gloura or two, Kuo-Toans, etc.

I've only done contacts, and they can be only gained through quests or roleplaying in my campaigns. That is, the player has to befriend the NPC instead of just assuming he meets a person every few levels based on his class(as unusual as it is, a Wizard or Barbarian can happen to be sociable)...

I support the idea. The concept of what the core calls Exotic weapons amounts to a bad joke. The other two weapon groups are based on how hard it is to wield them effectively as a weapon, not regional differences - which in some worlds never existed to begin with, by the way - and those weapons...

This would be a good point only if the OP didn't ask about spells which get banned due to balance issues.

Wow. Replicating the Battle of the Pelennor Fields... I don't envy you. Well, in all honesty, they'd have never won that one if not for Pippin, Merry, Eowyn and the army of the dead. They were fighting against admittedly impossible odds, and Minas Tirith's structure, while in the strict...

Oh, no, Alignment rules stay. I thought of impementing the Detect spells only in place of Detect Alignment, so to encourage players to think about killing people first. Every once in a while I get a player who thinks he can slaughter tons of creatures by virtue of them being Evil, when they...

Ah. I see. So for instance, Maglubiyet's divine casters would detect Kikanuti's and vice versa, Lastai's would detect prudes, Chaav's would detect bullies, etc. What would happen if you cast Detect Follower on a follower of a god with similar portfolio, "alignment" or domains? Their goals are...

Interesting. I haven't ever played a campaign without Alignment rules. I can see the appeal of it, but does it work out? Let's say there is an Evil deity who's allied with demons at large due to the portfolio. And a demon wants to kill a worshipper because, well, it's a demon; depending on how...

I've never seen the need to ban spells. If a player was too powerful or too weak, I just adjusted the encounters or gave them a quest heavy on roleplay. Simple as that. Why limit the poor smucks? As long as they only try to beat the monsters and not the game, I couldn't care less for their spell...

Actually, all invocations are SPAs. And since Eldricht Blast is an Invocation, as stated above, those feats shoud work just fine. I assume this was what Dandu meant.

Again, there is, in Reading Spell Descriptions (Part Five) of the WotC's 3.5 archive. Whenever not stated otherwise, a Wall effect always counts as two-dimensional with negligible thickness.

There is. It's on page 303 of the DMG. It's so forgiving I can hardly hold back a facepalm upon reading it though. A heavier brick would need to fall 60 feet first to deal damage at all-.- They even thought somebody might feel falling objects deal too much damage and wrote a sidebar with a...

Please delete.

I agree with you. I can't talk in place of Ashtagon but I'd say we share that opinion. It was a poor choice of words in the given setting, nothing else. The common phrase "Good is not Nice" is used to imply that people can get quite ruthless even when fighting for a good cause. Even Good...

While I understand what you mean, I implore you to take the statement at face value, i.e. as it was intended to be. There obviously were no implications of deeds you enumerated. Ashtagon is not trying to found a philosphy which Evil people could twist to justify their actions, (s)he is just...

Good point, in a way. Letting monsters with a criminal record roam around without supervision is not the best thing to do. Yet it's not as if it's a morally bad choice; it's Good and incredibly stupid at the same time. After all, it wasn't you who killed innocent peope after the fact, the...

Man, all I ever get on this site is praise! You guys are the best!:D Thank you!:) The Giant Slayer character is a perfect example of how a Good character can be mean and a bother to those around him. You might want to introduce Racist McMurderer to the Pact Primeval through a character with...

Aside from typos and the aforementioned formatting, there are no obvious issues with this class, from a DM's viewpoint. As flavor is it's focus, not power, the chance it brokes a campaign is next to nil. I'd give it a green light, but I've never seen the anime; fans will likely have objections...
