    Tracking a necromancer

    What divinations are good for figuring out where a being who raised a small army of undead is, and where they may be located? We are on a mountain top, so we don't know how far from a town we are at the moment. Although we did just save a fortress from being destroyed, so we have some semi...

    Easy metamagic

    It is +4, me being silly (^_^") Thanks for clearing it up.

    Easy metamagic

    So I just read dragon 325 (I do love the feats there, even if they are not all brilliant I think they are very flavourful) It got me thinking about quicken, if you where to apply quicken spell to all your spells, does this mean you would be limited to only casting spells as a swift action, so...

    DMs - What is your point buy method?

    we just roll the standard way, and you can shift about the points however you like. Sounds like a lot, but with the monsters made to match, its all dandy fun and fair.

    alignment changing

    I compleatly support the chaotic thing, however, if another party member (lawful) where to do this, from their view point at least, its better than killing the person. So while you cant, someone in your party can

    alignment changing

    How about using Geass/Quest. As far as D&D is concerned that seems to be a good way to go. While not changing their alignment, you will certainly start to push them towards a different path very strongly. Just make sure to pick the right one

    alignment changing

    What alignment to what alignment? as the easiest non magic way is a sudden shocking incident, or a pact of some kind.

    Vampire Cape

    I think +4 is pretty adequate, but if you want more +6 doesn't sound like its going too far. You could apply protect against arrows to the cape to remove missile damage. the claws of darkness spell would probably cover the damage pretty nicely, if applied to the edge of the cape. Claws of...

    Unfortunate Plot Hole needs fixing

    A point I've seen a lot, and it took me a while to get to grips with is 'that sits well at the logical table' and a lot of things sit well at the 'logical table.' But mechanically and fun wise, how will your PC's feel about 'yeah sorry, they are way to powerful for you, and now your in...

    Unfortunate Plot Hole needs fixing

    Dont punish players for doing a smart thing, yes its not what you expected, and as DM's we can all appreciate it irritates the F*** out of us. But this is the bit of D&D that seperates it from a computer game. Let the demons slay the enemies, the Pc's arnt wrong there. However, in a short...

    Imp Familiar

    I decided to go ahead and try and get an imp familiar, as I frankly love imps. However, there is the case that I need to be close to its alignment, and my DM wouldn't appreciate me killing his valuable NPC's or hurting random innocents; neither is that too fun for me to play. However I've been...

    Quick Tarrasque Question.

    I think people are taking the wrong approach here. Is it possible to refute that drowning can do lethal damage to the tarrasque? No defiantly not, that would utterly ignore the rules. However the rules do say Effect: I would defiantly class drowning as an effect. And while it could be...

    Casting Multiple spells in the First Round- Options?

    Money wise it is almost defiantly a waste, however with the multitask feat, two of these staffs and eldrich tapestry, you have just cast 6 buffs on the whole party.

    Longtooth Elite shifter feat

    I cant see any raw reason against it if it doesn't specify when shifting. I don't think they intended for you to get another bite attack. Let us for a second compare the soul meld to the lycanthrope curse, as both are abilities. If a lycanthrope (lets say werewolf) polymorphed into a shark...

    Casting Multiple spells in the First Round- Options?

    It suddenly hit me that there is something called 'Rod of Many Wands' on page 128 of the complete mage It can be loaded with three wands and all can be activated in a single rounds. This is a full round action. You could get 4 spells off with this and a quickened spell, that would be a lot of...

    Are there spells specifically designed to do non-lethal damage?

    Nonlethal Substitution – Feat – D&D Tools Thats the best I can offer you other than whelm useable by the beguiler might be kinda useful to have this Energy Substitution – Feat – D&D Tools and this Energy Admixture – Feat – D&D Tools ---- If you want the most bang for your buck, a psionic...

    D&D 3.x What if everyone's a wizard? [3.5]

    If the lowest peasents had magic, one of two things would happen 1) Magic would be shoved onto your CV and you would get a job based on what abilities you had (This snippet of an idea is taken from a freind) and the different types of magic would work together to create different parts of a...

    Scaling Sizes

    Its called colossal+ Some epic dragons and epic creatures reach that size. Its from 3.0 I think, and its not really a size category, just a pseudo size category, it let dragons get more HD. It modified Damage, Breath Weapon, and Reach and does not represent a physical change in size.

    The Holy Kingdom

    I think the main series of problems the adventurers need to tackle, is going to be dealing with non-violent crimes against them. Law enforcement will really struggle under this kinda of spell, unless they are exempt.
