Not trying to bump the threat count, but I want to keep all these together. Rat Totem Hit Dice: d8 Weapons and Armor Proficiencies: Rat Totem Warriors are proficient with all Simple, Martial and Exotic (Agile) Weapons, and with Light Armor, and Shields. Additional Class Skills: Sneak...

Spider Totem I should note that I am only creating a totem warrior creation up to 12th level since the game I'm intending to run is going to cap out around 10th. That's my default setting anyway, if it advances beyond that I can cross that bridge later. Spider Totem Hit Dice: d8 Weapons...

If this were a voting thing, I'd throw my lot in with the spells overlapping rather than stacking. That said, I've always found the best way to use Shield Other is to have a cleric cohort cast it on you, then Meld Into Stone and hit himself with Cure's every round. Is there an offensive...

We use CON% to stabilize, 0 to -CON bonus for Disabled, and -CON for Death. We got some of that from AE, but Neg CON has been industry standard with most of the groups I've played with since... well, I can't remember ever playing in a "Dead at -10" game.

SiderisAnon: Thank you, I'm always happy to cause someone pain. :) My theory is there'd be one less vampiric image in the mirror. Hey, maybe that's how vampires fix their hair before going out. They cast Mirror Image and then check out the reflection of the images. And they can see how...

Actually, the two most interesting questions this brings up for me is: 1) Could a person with See Invisibility see the reflection of an Invisible person, and, 2) What about the reflection of a Vampire who had cast Mirror Image? Other than that, I have to go with the original respondent...

Bat Totem Hit Dice: d8 Weapons and Armor Proficiencies: Bat Totem Warriors are proficient with all Simple and Martial Weapons, and with Light and Medium Armors, and Shields. Additional Class Skills: Knowledge (Geography) and Sneak. Special: Bat Totems receive a +2 inherent bonus to Sneak...

I looked around over at diamondthrone.com, and I thought here would be a good place to check as well. I planning on running an underdark game and I thought it'd be neat to have totems specific to the location, specifically Bat, Rat, Spider and so on. I'm going to scratch out some rules for...

You could also have certain weapons count as "magic" for the purpose of overcoming DR. (A friend of mine uses something similiar for "named" weapons. Weapons don't have to have a +1 to be special. This all got started as a way to reward players who were creative with how their weapons were...

Well, jeez, then I guess it can't be done. Considering that there is apparently no way to create an Antimagic Field larger than 10', seems like its all the more reason not to let larger casters make bigger versions of it. You know, D&D does have a tendency to imbue magic with all the...

I've always thought a good xp chart would be something like, you need X xp to level, and facing an equal CR challenge should give you X/10 xp (though if you wanted to stick to the recommended number of encounters per level, you could go with X/13.33 or whatever it is). Needing more and more xp...

A waterproof one?

That's a good point. Though if you had a Rod of Enlarge you could pull it off, casting the Antimagic Field as a 9th level spell with the Widen. (Though if you're burning through 9th level spells, you'd probably get better mileage out of a Miracle or Wish.)

That's how I've always treated it. It may or may not be how the book does it, but its simple and intuitive enough for me to remember it at the table. (I'm 90% that is how the book does it, but 90% isn't as certain as it used to be.) Edit: Low-Light removes the 20% miss chance, so elves...

This is off the top of my head, and I won't pretend to have thought it through at all, but it just seems giving larger casters bigger spells centered on them is a benefit that should have some cost. It seems like with your version, you could have a caster cast Enlarge Person on himself and then...

47. Toy boat 48. Message in a bottle ("Help me I'm being held captive in the Royal Privvy!" or whatever.) 49. Lepers, perhaps a whole family of them that have been forced away from the sight of the "civilized" people and who have turned a section of the sewers into a bizarre mockery of an...

The part that can be a real pain is the fighting retreat. An Ogre takes a 10' step backwards and Full Attacks whomever he was in melee with, then that character has to take a move action to get back into melee, can't full attack, and provokes and AoO. If you aren't built for fighting big guys...

I've floated the idea around a few times on this board and a few others. There are always a few doomsayers that point out it will totally wreck melee combat, but I don't look at that as entirely a bad thing. It makes larger creatures much scarier, but that was 9/10's my reasoning behind...

I'm guessing that kid's going up a level.

I haven't been able to get this idea out of my head. I floated the idea past a couple of players, and it's an idea that grabs people. I've been scratching out some notes here and there, looking through some old books... the usual. The Black Sun Trading Company. This is an idea I have, where...
