    Dragon Breath

    My interpretation is that you cast the spell once and it gives you dragonbreath. You cast it again and it gives you different dragonbreath replacing the previous casting Much like casting polymorph twice doesn't give you the abilities of both creatures. The second casting makes the first...

    Standing up from prone

    This is probably a silly question ... but can you make a concentration check to avoid the AoO since you are using a skill? I don't think so since it's the standing that provokes, not the skill use ...

    Reincarnation and Level Adjustments

    Before this goes any further. I don't want this to devolve into "I'm right - you're wrong"... as long as it doesn't I'll be happy to explain my position :D As long as that cash (assuming all costs are appropriate - no discount polymorph at will ioun stones), then this falls into "the norm"...

    Reincarnation and Level Adjustments

    No ... as I stated, the ability to polymorph is a balanced inherent ability of certain classes. If one class merits an LA, it's not blanced. If one spell merits an LA, it's not balanced. The Polymorph spell is a blanced ability of balanced classes. The reincarnate spell alters another...

    Reincarnation and Level Adjustments

    actually in a polymorph you get typical stats for the race ... so if you rolled really well, polymorphing into a bugbear may lower your stats. Also, polymorphing into a creature is not the same as being that creature (even if polymorph is made permanent...polymorph into a drow and so Spell...

    D&D 3.x Give unto me your "Power Gamer's 3.5 Guide to Rogues"

    You don't have to buy Races of Stone, you can just look at the exerpt on their website :D As for flavor? a spiked chain wielding shadow dancer is strangely appealling, but that deviates from your class plan ... Wild Talent+Psionic weapon+deep impact for your deep halfling? ;) Uhm .... Feint to...

    Reincarnation and Level Adjustments

    Not really, no. being able to cast the polymorph spell is factored into your estimated power level at that level. ... if you could cast it innately that would be different. Now if you were to try to make a polymorph spell permanent through permancy, there would be an XP penalty ... samething...

    Thri-Kreen with a +1 LA?

    The Dark Sun version is the EPH version with no psi-like abilities and no innate power points

    Dragon Breath

    I didn't think that this was possible. One casting replacing the other ... hmmm. I wouldn't allow it :p

    Question RE: Energy Substitution

    No descriptor. Do you think that was intentional or just because they couldn't decide on which descriptor?

    Thri-Kreen with a +1 LA?

    Lesser Thri-Kreen ... I would let it slide as 2 racial hit dice +1 LA with no psi-like abilities, replace deflect arrows and innate power points with Wild Talent (bonus feat) Though dropping the poison would be reccomended and possibly bite attack too. (with a +1 LA, this would have an ECL of...

    The Problem With Spot and Listen

    Actually a person's eyesight does not tend to deteriorate, as I understand it... the lenses of the eye tend to become less flexible and alter the range of what you can focus on. in other words, you tend to develop near- or far-sightedness. Therefore situational penalites might be appropriate...

    Balancing fast healing

    Since I dug out RaceCalc for another thread, I looked up it's appraisal of fast healing... +0.5 Considering that most Fast healing monsters have a lot of other abilities, this may be taking it out of context. Just thought I'd offer the extra bit of info though :D

    D&D 3.x Give unto me your "Power Gamer's 3.5 Guide to Rogues"

    Just a quick comment about the Whisper gnomes, I inputed the stats from WotC into RaceCalc using Rock Gnome to fill in most stats. Whisper Gnomes are, according to RaceCalc, LA +0.6, unless the +4 racial hide bonus is supposed to be a +4 from being small, in which case, they are LA +0.4

    Magic items without creation - need creative ideas plz

    With a bit of work, you can make a system based off transmutation Incantations. (seems I've been linking to this section of the SRD a lot lately) Since you don't want magic items to be too common, change the "casting time" from every 10 minutes to every day (so at minimum it takes 6 days) and...

    Half-Celestial/Half-Demon

    Not knowing anything about those fiends, you can: a) ignore the alignment retrictions on the templates and the half-celestial template to the fiend or half-fiend to the celestial ... b) Ignore the conceptually oddity of a Half-celestial,half-demon,half other creature (since nothing prevents you...

    Should undead be allowed to speak?

    Present the arguments others have suggested (omit the duffus bit), but be prepared for some potential resentment for going to these boards for arguments, advice, suggestions, etc about how he should run his game. It is his game. His world. His rules. He does not have to follow the Player's...
