While I think that the existence of the druidic language is cool, I think that the whole "we will protect it with our lives" thing is kinda silly in a world with the Decipher Script skill and the Comprehend Languages spell. Nevermind Tongues.

And then later on, another player will bring in his own drow-with-a-soul character and it will be cooler and much more loved than yours and you can throw a fit and refuse to play that character ever again. :D But seriously, the Helm of Opposite Alignment is iffy in my book. I mean, in third...

It's why I love the new weapon size rules, personally. They're not even that complicated. If they had written 3.0 that way in the first place, I bet nobody would be complaining. :)

I prefer "Gold, gold, gold, gold, gold, gold..." :D

The Book of Vile Darkness also has Utterdark, though it's a really high level spell. Evil people can see in it and it has a huge radius and duration.

It doesn't have to be light. It's just that the attack penalty is bigger with two non-light weapons. Basically, if you have mad attack bonuses, it might be worth it. But it's mostly a flavor thing. The power gaming option for melee fighters does seem to be two-handed weapons since 3.5E.

If you're going to do that, you might as well remove the 5' step altogether. Its whole purpose is to avoid AoOs. Also, for this reason, I'd hardly call what the player did in the initial post as "abuse".

But the risk of losing your character isn't the only possible risk. In Exalted, it is pretty easy to make a mistake and die. Also, in that game, there is no way of bringing someone back from the dead. Since I wanted to run games with long term characters with much character development, I came...

I don't know if it's spelled out in 3rd edition, but it used to be that the astral bordered only the outer planes and the prime material plane. Thus, it wouldn't border the ethereal or the inner planes (elemental and negative/positive energy). On those planes, I would say that you can't summon...

"And I would have gotten away with it, too, if it wasn't for that meddling Morrus !"

Yeah, and since it's 3.0, you can take the Power Critical feat and a Scythe. Then, once a day, you use your mega strength and smite ability on a auto-critical ! :D

Charisma damage/drain ?

Star Cairns is often used as an example of a really bad module. Not sure why, though. Neither of the two has anything to do with the Crypt module as far as I remember. I know that the Crypt is the only module of the three I've ever run. Edit : Oh and neither is really puzzle oriented.

I'll try to see what I can do. I bet most of those are going to be only referred to in books I've read and have never been statted... Referenced in GttAP (Guide to the Astral Plane). Same stats as common whale. Stats in In the Cage: Faces of Sigil page 70. I wonder where I got those...

Resistance is not very useful !

Mechanically, they do cold damage and wisdom damage to both the wielder and those the weapon strikes. They are also pretty fragile, and can get damaged themselves every time they hit something. The flavor text is pretty cool. :)

Stygian Ice weapons are statted on page 81 of Frostburn. BTW, what does "Frostburn HC" mean ?

Yeah, most of the people who say they hate this adventure talk only about the aftermath. It's not as if that was hard to change. There's even a section in the aftermath that talks about alternative options if you don't like it as written. If you like the adventure but not the ending, change the...

This is why my high level wizards always carry a potion of remove blindness. :) Note that you can still can non-targeted (i.e. touch, ranged touch, personal and area spells) while blind. :cool:

If you are very generous (good) and cast evil spells (evil), then you are neutral. :)
