Agree with Shadyizok & Dandu To provide some evidence from the PHB: Sorcerer: He can cast any spell he knows at any time, assuming he has not yet used up his spells per day for that spell level. (pg 54, 2nd sentence of last paragraph of the spell section) Wizard/Preparing Wizard Spells: A...

I agree that it depends. The harder it is to train a mount the less likely is it to just accept any stranger riding them. Having an intelligent mount allows the DM/PC to determine what happens. The more sneaky mounts would probably allow a rider on then run them into a branch or something. (It...

Apols for resurrecting a slightly dead topic, but......... My point is: Every class has a few assumptions about what it can do (in this case, Rogue can handle traps & locks, that a 3.5 cleric can turn/rebuke undead). If you have no capability in those areas, the others need to know about it to...

I'm going to work on charm but you can extrapolate the compulsions from that. Covered, but generally no. I'd say no, but unless the B is paranoid enough to fear even friends, then WizA obviously cast a beneficial spell for his friend. Later however as B remembers how he acted while WizA was...

There is nothing wrong with what you suggest, just some more bookkeeping. I'd also include merchants using trade bars, other wares, letters rather than plain coins for higher priced items. I do limit selling things to the normal limit of stuff you can buy in a town (if you could not buy a +3...

We don't use the book but: That is my feeling, RAW but :eek:, not in my game. I'd probably max it out at 90'.

At the risk of bringing real world religion in on this, most major faiths consider fiddling with the corpse a bad thing at best, if not downright evil/sacrilegious. My knowledge of voodoo is only TV deep (i.e. less than superficial) but is the only one I'm aware of that doesn't consider it...

Actually in the FR book: Underdark, pg 70 As mentioned +3 bonus, considered light in all but AC bonus, 1/2 normal weight.

I'm sure this is not your intention, but... You would happily take a rogue with a merchant concept and not take ranks in open lock or find traps and then not have anyone know this until you came to a locked door? One thing that (at least IMHO) tends to be overlooked is that a character needs...

Also in the Forgotten Realms. Due use the crystalkeep database as SOTS suggests. IIRC there has been a couple of variants, although I suspect that only the latest version of the feat will be noted in it.

What is the difference then regarding movement through many threatened squares and AoO? If moving (as one action) through multiple squares triggers only a single AoO, why does a full attack (as one action) which shoots multiple arrows trigger multiple AoOs? Is there a phrase that I'm missing...

Check out the rules on sniping under Hide: Sniping: If you’ve already successfully hidden at least 10 feet from your target, you can make one ranged attack, then immediately hide again. You take a –20 penalty on your Hide check to conceal yourself after the shot. Spot: -1 per 10 ft distance IF...

Does the Goliath description provide a Weapon Familiarity note? (PHB in regards to dwarfs: Weapon Familiarity: Dwarves may treat dwarven waraxes and dwarven urgroshes (see Chapter 7:Equipment) as martial weapons, rather than exotic weapons.) I don't have the appropriate book so I can't say for...

For Charm Person I've used this quote: My master had decreed that you are to die in horrific and painful ways, for as long as I can make it last. However, submit peacefully and I will make it as quick and painless as I can. If you would backstab your own mother, then despite being a trusted...

Long Term Care says: "Giving long-term care counts as light activity for the healer. You cannot give long-term care to yourself." This implies you can use heal on yourself. I have a slight aversion to Treat Poison being self administered, but that is a personal bias not a rules based opinion...

I'm curious, because I would have thought invading one's home to loot and kill (admittedly in most cases evil) sentient beings as murder.* which is what most adventures tend to do. *: I/my group just sidestep this issue following K.I.S.S. as you do.

Why call it a silly little code if (in theory at least) your deity is the one that gave it to you in the first place? ;) It is now becoming a DM approved/installed plot point and as such is outside the usual rules (maybe becoming a Rule 0).

But it is not supposed to be subjective WITHIN the game. It is a measurable "talent" of someone. From the PHB pg 103 last 2 sentences in the fisrt paragraph under Alignment: "Good and evil are not philosophical concepts in the D&D game. They are the forces that define the cosmos." In the Good...

You know, I'm reading this and am wondering: What would happen if (with enough STR) one of the PCs did this to a commoner or someone more noteworthy/plot required? OP: Would you as a DM allow this?

I tend to vaguely follow the Evil in alignment or type pings on the radar. Certain things don't ping, but there will be a reason for it rather than DM whim (a cleric converting from evil to non evil could alternatively ping or not ping for example). I also go for intent, but this will generate...
