Round 1: Webs cover the area. Victims are so entangled they cant move unless they made a Reflex save to notce the spell's activation and avoid the brunt of the webbing. round 2+: Each round,victims are unable to move unless they make a Strength check (DC20) or Escape Artist(DC25) first...

Easy ... tithing is a MORAL agreement/responsibility between the individual and their deity, so I suggest using the Detect Evil spell to determine the base chance of their deity noticing the individual's failure to support their religious brethren via either monetary or equivalent goods/services...

Unfortunately D&D doesnt provide any conclusive behind-the-scene suggestions asto how existing core spells were developed, let alone guidance regarding how todo independent research ... beyond the catch-all to compare your desired effect vs known spells for suggested idea of what might be...

Spiritual Ally removes/lacks Spiritual Weapon's requirement for the designated foe to remain within the caster's line-of-sight, so IMO it -SHOULD- be able to attack any adjacent foe, regardless of whether the caster can actually see it (ie standing around the corner/behind cover) provided you...

Correct. As I see it, LOW-LEVEL biotech likely mirrors our own development to a large degree, with the most noticeable divergences occurring once we began moving towards a mechanized industrial culture. IF we presume Governmental-Social pressures against mechanization prolong reliance upon...

Biotech is biologically focused technology so off-the-cuff, I agree Stone Age (TL1) would essentially being using whatever happens to be at hand during routine hunts like you said. TL2 (Bronze Age) domestication of local animals/plants. TL3 (Iron Age) early attempts at animal husbandry /...

As you point out, Feats should customize the generic role in a broad way (much like the PrCs), not fill-in what would have been handled better as a general Skill and/or circumstantial modifier applicable to virtually everyone. For instance, Personally I wish RAW had simplified the whole Magic...

Please point out potential faults with: "I wish the next vendor I meet has a <insert item> legally available for sale without restrictions or other binding complications for a total price of #gp." (given the requested item complies with RAW's price/xp limitations outlined within Wish, and...

both are AD&Dv1 monsters vaguely related to mimics, with the Lurker Above bearing a false "ceiling" which falls upon its victims while the Trapper camoflages itself as a typical stone floor awaiting to roll-up/envelope the unsuspecting ... thus a common encounter was for both to share a room and...

I include a 10% discount for knowing the creator's personal gobbledygook to comprehend the projected text (which perhaps should be higher to reflect its uniqueness) and a further 30% discount for limiting it strictly to wizards. Yes, a 40% discount seems excessive but justifiable considering...

Loonook ok, um so? He's effectively scanning a large collection of spellbooks/reference works into a single "pdf file" of images so the originals can be left safely elsewhere while he travels with the more portable form. Provided its legible, one can view/study an image of text just as well as...

Sounds more like a DM Community than Players per-se, backgrounding a semi-generic setting without actual in-game play (although potential spinoff usage is there), beginning with an initial village framework which people begin randomly describing, expanding the known world at-will as details...

The other point would be whether its the RIGHT truename for any being sufficiently powerful to realize such exist would surely take steps not only to protect theirs, but obscure it as much as possible so why casters THINK they are summoning/whatever Dark Lord Asmodeus, discover their horrific...

would be interesting and no less chaotic than any typical shared universe, i would think. the real question would be more technical: hosting, software, etc.

IMO there are almost as many ways a species may have arrived in the campaign as there are species, including (but not limited to) natural evolution, creation by deity/high level casters, magical/breeding experimentation, interstellar/interplanar transportation, etc. Pretty much its deciding...

Greenfield: I can see your point regarding form being important to Stone-to-flesh, however I suspect its more a question of whether the source of stone was already living or not, thus an animated stone golem becomes an animated flesh golem and an inanimate statue becomes inanimate flesh (ie...

"I'm not sure I would assume an autocorrect for erasing errors or anything like that, I'd expect however neat or sloppy the written message is, is how it would be communicated. It would still require a mundane pen and ink to write upon the page. " RUMBLETiGER - I agree. When I said it would...

As the Divinities know, somehow it’s Belief which generates the life-sustaining energy necessary to maintain one’s Identity within Reality and while lesser beings may suffice with simple belief in oneself, augmented by their close acquaintances, Greater Beings require far more “fuel” to justify...

I have no problem substituting similar skills to achieve a desired end since WOTC often shows instances of doing likewise, such as using either Bluff or Diplomacy to convince the guard to let you pass. A blacksmith uses the "same" process to craft/repair armor, metal weapons, horseshoes, etc...

You're overthinking this. The zero-level Message spell already does what you want: to send/receive an AUDIO message via a whisper, so why not simply refluff it to a written message?? Writing on either page activates the enchantment, causing the message to appear on the other end. For...
