Hmm, a red dragon with an Improved Familiar: Tiny Fire Elemental. That could be fun. "Tiny Elementals are supposed to be weak! Why won't this thing die?" :]

The druid eventually gains the ability to take the form of an animal from size Tiny to Huge, so I don't think it is intended to vary by the druid's base size. Also, there is a feat in Masters of the Wild that shifts the sizes available in Wild Shape relative to the druid's base size. That's...

In that case, I suggest using miracle to make the permanent spells only suppressed by greater dispel magic. That effect would definitely cost XP. As long as the permanent spells are knowledge-related, I think it would be reasonable. How many spells do you plan to make permanent? I think...

With Spell Girding, you are immune to dispel magic. Then, have your weapon enchanted with the Spellblade property from Magic of Faerun. This makes you immune to a single targeted spell. It also gives a spell-turning effect I don't recall the details of. Choose greater dispel magic and you are...

It feels just a little strong for me, so I'd suggest a minor penalty such as -2 to an appropriate skill or two. Maybe -2 racial penalty to Disguise and Bluff. Perhaps "distinctive coloration makes it hard to disguise yourself" and "who's going to trust a rat, anyway"? I think it's the little...

Use a bead of karma when casting the miracle. Then your caster level will be 24. Also, find someone to cast create enchanted tattoo on you for another +1 caster level.

You could still use the aid another action to assist your companions, right?

Yep, you would keep all your buffs and magic item effects while your opponent would lose all magic, including, in most cases, DR. These sort of combos aren't much fun to use, but they are sure fun to find. :D

It has been pointed out to me that this is incorrect. Quench only damages elemental (fire) creatures. I believe this is a change from 3.0 I missed.

I doubt I would allow it either. It never came up in the one epic game I ran as no one took Epic Spellcasting. I don't have the wording of Ward in front of me, but from what I remember it allows the spell(s) Warded against to pass through the ward and the Warded creature can cast the spell(s)...

Use the epic spell seed Ward to make yourself permanently immune to Antimagic field. :]

Wind wall blocks gaseous breath weapons. Heroes' feast grants immunity to poison, among other things, for 12 hours. It is a 6th level spell, so you would most likely need to obtain a scroll or two. Be careful with plane shifting yourselves to the Positive Material Plane. The fast healing...

Quench is a great Druid spell to use on those [fire] creatures. There is no defense against it.

Epic magic tends to be a poor choice for attack spells. It excells in the areas of protection, buffing, and the combination of multiple effects. You would most likely be better off researching a 9th level version of Magic Missile.

I'd say the process of killing the Beholder punctured or burst the buoyant part, so you end up with a deflated Beholder corpse on the ground. The floating Beholder graveyard is a cool visual, though.

I use the 2500 multiplier for Insight, Sacred, and Profane bonuses. As these are generally less common, they will tend to stack with other bonuses the character has, so I price them at the highest multiplier.

I was just clarifying that you cannot lower your SR to receive a beneficial spell and then raise it again in the same round to protect yourself from hostile spells.

I believe the exact ruling was you must wear the headband for one entire level before you can begin gaining bonus skill points. Additionally, if you ever take off the headband you permanently lose all bonus skill points gained by wearing it. This begs the question, how do you wash your hair? I...

Glass would not block darkness. The spell states that a light-proof container blocks the spell. Glass is not light-proof. Glass does block line of effect, though.
