it is more likely a matter of the game designers never having met an actual angel, and are thus somewhat ignorant of the sheer overpowering awe and fear that even seeing one engenders in the average unshielded human. besides which, the common artistic depictions of cherubim do no justice to the...

that, my friend, is purely a matter of opinion. consider it wildshaping my speech, and thus in topic... =D besides which, i'm under a mandate to so do. dappe. ^^

the fun part is making the characters play fetch.

ftfy*. i'm sorry. it seems our cups are of different sizes. in case you hadn't noticed, none of that was epic stuff. may i humbly suggest that you mention more details of the limits you and your group labor under, so that we can suggest more appropriately limited ideas for you? and please...

i have yet to run into any dm who did it differently, until this thread. and i've been playing for a very long time. but, the wording could be a bit more clear... shoganai, ne?

thanks dandu, can always count on you. ^^

a druid's wildshape is based on the special ability alternate form. there is nothing requiring the creature to revert to a specific shape in order to take another of the allowed forms. i believe that the term "and back again" is there simply to indicate that they do not permanently become the...

well, since in your original post you said, "If I wanted to base my PC off of the sole ability to max out my CHA score how could I do this?" so please don't complain when i give you one method to do exactly that. oh, by the way, i have great fun ROLE-playing my ghost character. he picks up...

ah, i see. guess i was confusing my memories of the rules with my personal experiences. well, anyone who has seen a spear or staff in real combat, knows it is a reach weapon, regardless of what the rules say.

yes, you can expend another wildshape usage previous to the end of the first usage while in animal form to change into an animal. even if it is the same animal type. using wildshape for healing is subpar, but better than nothing in a pinch if you can spare the action it takes to activate...

indeed. i can attest to that. reminds me of a character i had that managed to pull off the rather unusual feat of facing down a full adult blue dragon, almost single handed. (had the defensive back up of a wizard and a cleric, but they couldn't affect the dragon, only me.) here is the link...

it is important to remember the soulknife prestige class from athas.org (official 3.x material per wotc) when making these builds. after the soulknife was converted to a base class in 3.5, athas decided that they did not like the execution and reconverted the 3.5 soulknife to a prestige class...

doesn't the long staff count as reach too?

i've always allowed innovative players to substitute valuable parts and pieces of magical creatures for material components and gp cost of magic items, if the biological specimen in question makes sense. eye of a beholder for any of the effects a beholder can pull off, claws of something with...

once you base your will off of your cha, there is a single feat that nixes the need to further boost your other saves, or at least aids the matter: kissed by the ages - survivor pick. this feat allows you to pick a flavorful background with a mechanical benefit, in the case of the survivor you...

i would put in some magic items that generate, or satisfy the need for, food, water, and air, as well as some environmental adaption stuff.

i would look here for the reason why 3rd ed has no mass combat system, and what happened to the rules....

class levels and hd count for feat purposes and stat adjustments. la does not.

the real danger is that if the dominated character is a pc, then they might try to make them a psionic sandwich instead.... min/maxers after all.

usually a single swarm occupies a 10x10 space, iirc. so are you facing one giant sized swarm bigger than that, or are you facing multiple swarms? if the latter, i think it is an easy answer. if the former, then i think that the portion knocked back would effectively split the swarm into three...
