Hmmm... How about a different approach, then? Polymorph any object--gather up as much lava as you can polymorph into forms that you can transport. Take this to the top of his tower and dispel the polymorph. Since it's dimensionally locked he can't polymorph away. Be prepared to follow it up...

Unless you're playing with 20-20-20 insta-kill kills beyond the chart almost certainly mean something is very wrong with the adventure. The only time I've seen a kill beyond the tables was a dragon killed by dropping a big rock on it's head while it slept and that wasn't a combat situation. A...

You don't do anything with them. They do whatever they want to do!!

Agreed. My ban list is anything that requires Exhalted status. It imposes restrictions on the game world that I don't want. Beyond that, goose & gander. There are some things I have changed, though--especially teleport. When teleporting to a location you can only port to a place you have...

But this is evil. If the party isn't.... One thing that comes to mind: Disintegrate. Also, flesh to stone if they are corporeal. Otherwise, perhaps something else overcomes their regeneration. Otherwise they aren't meant to be killed directly--maybe they aren't truly immune but are being...

Sorry, can't resist this one: The Horn of Self-Tooting. This is an apparently ordinary but very high quality horn, but in reality it is magical. 6 versions exist: Lesser (+3), normal (+6), greater (+9), lesser epic (+12), epic (+15) and greater epic (+18) To use it a character must play it...

Count me in the camp that says it lets you recover your spells in 2 hours but this isn't of that much value. It lets the caster take watch most of the night but you only get the spells *PER DAY*, the ring doesn't give you any more spells. I do *NOT* permit resting mid-day. Try laying down for...

What is sea water? River water that has been contaminated by the salt of the ocean. Of course you can purify it!

I can't believe the BOED was play-tested.

I would consider it totally ineffective even if you have a waterproof quiver so the holy water stays in. Consider: The arrow goes flying through the air at something over 100mph. That means the arrow is subject to 100 mph winds. Can you say "blow drier"? You might have a slight dampness...

You need a lot more than the vow of poverty. It's got a requirement of Exalted--you need to read the part of the book that explains this.

I've never been in a party that has even considered any form of combat hireling.

A demiplane that's an inside-out world with gravity not quite lined up right. You can get an infinite staircase without anything teleporting you back to the start and thus no way to detect it. (Yeah, they could still detect being shifted to the demiplane in the first place but this could be...

What is the confusion here? Note that he qualified "high level" with "if not epic". I would treat that as a request for something in the high teens or even low twenties.

I agree that there is a lot of overlap between bluff and perform in a case like this. A bluff *IS* a form of performance! Thus I would allow either skill to be used.

But that's not continuous and can't be priced by the continuous formula. A "continuous" CLW effect is basically a use-activated caster level 1, spell level 1 uncharged item that can do 10 rounds/minute * 60 minutes/hour * 24 hours/day = 14,400 times/day = that's 5,760,000gp. The ring of fast...

This won't work. You can't make an instantaneous spell continious. It makes no sense.

I never liked how xp is lost & restored anyway. Just do a hair more bookkeeping: Record how much was drained. When it's restored you get that amount back. As for a level drain--it's a fixed amount equal to the xp for your previous level unless that would not cause a level loss then it's the...

No--I'm saying you get both types of data at once, the AS information doesn't impair your normal vision, it's simply adding sensory data. Thus you could immediately tell if it was a person or a statue but you couldn't tell if it was an invisible person right in front of a statue--AS merely...

Yes. If you don't have line of sight on the location you get the aura and nothing else, no frame of reference to actually place it. All you have is a bearing.
