They'd need Speak with Animals because while its reasonable for the familiar to comprehend all of the languages its master knows, it unfortunately lacks the vocal cords necessary to speak any of them; although as Greenfield noted it SHOULD be able to scratch/write in some fashion since knowledge...

house-rule it ... obviously WOTC (like most of us?) were unaware octopuses routinely leave the water for extended periods of time and thus SHOULD have the Hold Breath ability with a x23 to x69 multiplier since the SRD lists the giant octopus having a Con13 and the professionals(?) indicate their...

If he does, cast glassee(sp?) on the iron ball first to make it transparent.

the simple answer is natural attacks are only listed when considered relevant. I didnt see anything in the SRDs, however irc the DMG/PH v1.0 stated a standard punch inflicted 1 hpd. Since most civilized humanoids can inflict far more damage via punch than their bite/finger nails, such attacks...

kinda makes ya wonder whether the default Int:2 should be increased a few points given the creativity/planning exhibited by octopi IRL, dont it??

Unexpectedly, its apparently quite common for some species of octopus to routinely wander out of the water for extended periods of time with one purported professional aquarium manager easily needing 90+ minutes to recover and return his errant charges back to their respective tanks! Octopus on...

even if the @min(100 followers) is accurate for your campaign, I would suspect its 100 MORTAL followers making the proposed round-robin ineffective unless each new deity supplied a replacement mortal for the next round of Ascension.

silly question perhaps, but wouldn't causing the affected rock to crumble/collapse behind suffice since you could then use other unseen servants/hirelings/etc to remove the loosened debris?? curiosity: stone shape affects 10+1/level cubic feet and says ... so could you sculpt a cage for...

Accept it as written and adjust your next sub-boss accordingly then after the resulting TPK, abide by the group's decision to ban the class henceforth.

The room in question has a hollow-glass statue full of loose soil standing near a small fountain. A small plaque reads "Earth endures". Having passed the prior elemental tasks, the group should realize they need convert the soil into something more able to Endure the ages given the clue, in...

not really, just attune the required evil into something more to your likely/plot need. for instance: * magical silver dagger with the animal-headed hilt inflicts lycanthropy if used to kill during a full moon. * armor/weapon/relic clearly belonging to a Good diety was subsequently cursed by...

Yes ... ANYTHING normally based on his hit dice would use whichever is higher: its hit dice or your character level.

I'm sure there are other examples, but the one I was thinking of was Koko the low-land gorilla whose trainers (and numerous independent scholars) confirmed not only mastered American Sign Language and had independently created NEW words, but IRC taught several enclosure-mates to sign -- quite...

1. Yes. Mundane animals (including druid’s animal companions) have too low an Int score to comprehend spoken/written language so could NOT be taught to read … however there’s no reason they could not once that threshold of sentience is crossed. Many primates have proven able “conservationists”...

sounds like a Miracle combination of Mage Armor + Daylight (presuming full effects) otherwise it might just be Mage Armor glamored/fluff to glow like any magical weapon; either of which I'd allow IMC.

Sorry, didnt mean to start a flame-war and fully agree magic can easily screw up the local economy regardless of level ... because even first-level spells can have unforeseen consequences if you choose to explore them, but its normally ignored for the same reason the sudden presence of PCs whose...

of course she might be fighting the very real threat of sharia law becoming "acceptable" in other places (france, usa) where women are voluntarily rejecting their hard-won equality, before cultural/legal changes revoke those rights? Perhaps the Evil Mastermind is working towards speeding that...

Although it would NOT have first-hand knowledge of what occurs "outside" while its contained within the Bag of Holder, it could(?) likely quickly "mind-scan" you via the telepathic bond once released and react accordingly. The problem isn't with Intelligent weapons per-se, but rather most(?)...
