    Eberron pronunciation...

    I've always said it like ken-ichi does. But yeah, like Stone Dog said Keith mentioned that Eberron is a big place with different dialects, so people there's not an "official" way of pronouncing anything (I go with "sire" for Cyre too).

    anyway to avoid aoo when gaining focus?

    What Chorn said. The pertinent part out of the SRD ( http://srd.plush.org/skillsCon.html ):

    Q: any official method of changing a cleric's chosen domains?

    As Arbiter implied, there's nothing official regarding this, though any solution IMO would be more of how the DM cared to wing it than a "house rule." I believe the Forgotten Realms has something on switching deities (as far as the setting goes), but I could be wrong. Your choice of course...

    What race is the Wizard in your group? (take II)

    I voted PHB elf and dwarf for an upcoming campaign, but even then both of them are multiclassed (the first is a figher/wiz and the second is going mystic theurge).

    spellcasting questions

    A) I would say no, as Spell Versatility does not mention being able to swap or add caster levels. (IMO, the text after what you pasted is the full capability of what Spell Versatility allows rather than examples, though I know of some people who think differently.) B) From what I understand of...

    Why not simply slaughter them?

    Various possible reasons: * They underestimate the PCs and have other concerns * They intend to use the PCs and need them alive * They fear retribution from other enemies (yes, they could kill the PCs, but once they've used up their spells from the day an enemy might take advantage of their...

    How many countries have you visited?

    I've never been anywhere besides the USA, myself.

    Rules citation? Flight and carrying capacity

    It is an inference, but one of the things I think is added that helps make it clear is the quote from MM 312 is "(Note that medium armor does not necessarily constitute a medium load)." Since having medium armor and a medium load both normally affect speed the same way, it would be odd that...

    Spellthief Question

    1) The text doesn't say anything about it being able to be used more than once in a single sneak attack, so I would say no. (Though on the same note, I don't think there's anything preventing you from stealing, say, a spell and a spell-like ability in the same sneak attack.) 2) Good question...

    Moment of Prescience Spell (Luck 8/Sor/Wiz 8)

    Proooobably not by RAW. An ability check as defined in the book (PHB 66) is something you try to do in which isn't covered by a skill. Plus it's not really "opposed" in the classical sense -- an opposed check is one in which "the higher result succeeds, while the lower result fails"; with...

    Craft: Alchemy, Spellcasting, and Gnomes

    By RAW, no, but IMC I ignore the rule that you need to be able to cast spells to use alchemy. If I weren't using that rule, I'd say the gnome ability lets them qualify anyway -- plus it'd make sense for a gnome anyway (though that may be biased by the fact that I do let non-spellcasters use...

    Level 20 commoners?

    The Sharn sourcebook contains a Lv17 commoner. Basically, she's an old elf who's dedicated her entire life to becoming a master cook. IMO, high-level commoners wouldn't be especially common, but they would be especially good at what they do (unlike an expert though, they would have an...

    Complete Adventurer (merged)

    When using bardic song normally, you can't cast spells or use spell completion/magic word items while you are singing; this restriction is apparently removed when using a virtuoso performance (this is a change from the S&S virtuoso).

    The lvl2 commoner decided to gove the lvl12 Paladin something precious

    This thread reminds me of a game where I ran an LN sorcerer, in whicha little girl gave in thanks for something he did (saving the town? I forget) gave him a handmade teddy bear. He accepted it as a token of honor, and regularly spent time keeping it in good condition. To him, it could had...

    Music Tastes

    A hodgepodge of stuff, usually not a fan of country, rap, or metal, but there are always exceptions. Though for the most part I'm not a big music person, and generally prefer not listening to music unless it's something I really like and/or am particularly in the mood. Guilty pleasures include...

    Complete Adventurer (merged)

    I actually kinda like the spellthief. Normally this is the type of thing I'd prefer as a prest (and TBH, before even seeing the class I thought that)... but I don't know, I guess I like it as a core class for some reason. They did a nice job preventing extreme abuse in my opinion, and I've...

    Sleep Deprivation rules

    This stuff is mainly as far as realism goes -- depending on how much you want you can use it or ignore it (in my games, I act as if a sleeping character is always dreaming even though that's not really true). Ah, here's my textbook. This will be kind of a "generalized" thing, not covering many...

    January In the Works...

    Dunno, I'm not particularly impressed by Raptorans myself -- they're a little too much of a one-trick pony for my tastes. Mechanics aren't bad though for an LA +0, and I am curious about seeing this Skypledged prestige class.

    Misspelling rogue as rouge - enlighten me

    That's part of the reason people think it's broken -- Frenzied Grammatists easily go into a frenzy just by hearing the name of their class! I mean, really, PETTY?!

    Sleep Advice

    Various stuff. For one, try getting to sleep at around the same time every night. Don't nap for longer than 20 minutes during the day, since that can mess with your cycles (I'm certainly guilty of this). If you're trying to get to sleep but you can't within 20 minutes, get up and go somewhere...
