Atlas the God that holds up the world has contracted a mystical wasting disease. Every time Atlas coughs or sneezes the world experiences earthquakes. The size and the intensity of the quakes are increasing as the disease takes hold. Eventually Atlas will lose his strength and the world will...

I'll second that. I rolled an 11 on my search, 13 if it is made of stone, 13 if it is a concealed or secret door, or 15 if it is a stone concealed or secret door.

In a portable hole you could hide a 6' by 10' creature.

Or bought scrolls.

The Sapphire Guards entire existence is based around protecting the thrown. I would assume they would have spent a few hundred years considering exactly how to protect the thrown with called celestials and antimagic fields and the likes. But since they are lawful stupid I expect a Paladin...

Since this is set in Venice, I had a thought about the merchant of Venice and the pound of flesh securing a contract. Perhaps being eaten is punishment for defaulting on loans. People are always getting into to trouble with debt why not make culling the herd part of the sacred duty of the...

The other races are like children who need to be scolded and taught by your superior elven intellect. Heck some of the characters are only a 20 years old and are children. The other races sweat and stink allot. The other races tend to speak much too loudly for the delicate elven ears. All art...

Again, I believe most of the spells referenced cost valuable actions in combat. If the buff lasts more then 10 min a level, then it can be cast using non-combat time. While everyone loves a haste or a mass vigor spell, those spells are costing the caster a standard action. Combat standard...

One point I didn’t make clear is a buff that takes up a round in combat in my opinion is worth less then a buff that lasts for hours. Sure you can add haste to the list but casting that haste either costs you a 7th level spell quickened or a standard action. The benefit to the party of...

So I was looking a creating a wizard and I was a bit surprised at how good of a melee buffer a wizard could be. For example a lvl 12 wizard: Magic Tattoo: +1 luck bonus to attacks Magic Tattoo: +2 competence bonus to attacks Heroism: +2 moral bonus to attacks, saves, skill checks Stone Skin...

If the arrows were allowed and plentiful, it could get down right deadly with a telekinetic volley of 15 arrows.

You could rob from the rich and give it to the trees. Or imagine the look on the fighters face when her shiny sword is replaced by a nice solid wooden practice sword. Plus helping yourself to the extra treasure that you deserve.

I've always viewed them as flavored jazzed up summon alchemist fire spells. Notice alchemist fire does not allow a saving throw on the initial damage. I think I would be fine with the orb spell if they also shared the 10 foot range increment. Let the wizard get nice and close to the heat of...

If the character is a half-orc menacing brute from RD could be useful

When your opponents start realizing you are an illusionist. I like to use Magic Aura to tweak mundane traps. Give a moat of acid the illusion aura or add the illusion aura to wall a fire. This way a cautious enemy using Detect Magic just to be safe will learn not to trust the spell. In the...

20) An influential noble family’s first born son has joined a cult. The PCs are hired to extract the son. The monastery is devoted to peace and nonviolence. The monks will resist any attempt to grab the son nonviolently. The monks will not make any attempt to defend themselves and will be...

A couple points of contention: arts in Sparta for the most point were ignored except for dance. Dance was an important training ritual the precision of group movements were useful in preparing for the heated phalanx battles. The Spartans had flute and drum and marched to war with them and...

If a bard researched a 6th level version of the inspirational boost spell, what do you think the effect should be? I’m leaning towards +2 or +3 to the bardic music effect.

If you pick up the leadership feat and recruit a sorcerer/marshal. As a marshal he can motivate will saves for a bonus equal his charisma bonus and as a sorcerer cast the before mentioned heroics spell.

Thanks for all of the replies. I found an additional way to qualify is the draconic heritage feat from Races of the Dragon. Two of the dragons give a knowledge skill as a class skill. Still the sorcerer needs 4 feats to qualify for the prestige class 1,1,3,6 assuming a human. (versus 2 for a...
