    Is there a History of how the Phylactery and Liches came to be?

    Alzrius The Arch-Lich is not a true lich, they cannot become demiliches. You're comparing Blackguards to Paladins - similar but different enough to warrant separations. If you happened to read the lich lore at any point, you'd probably have seen that already, though. It wasn't until 3.0 that...

    Is there a History of how the Phylactery and Liches came to be?

    Alzrius I suppose the words "Any" and "Evil" don't mean what I think they mean. IIRC, they've been "any evil" since basic, all the way up until Monsters of Faerun in 3.0 mucked it up.

    Creating Magic Items for a 19/20th lvl Character

    TheYeti1775 Didn't the MiC state non-epic items were capped at 200,000, and going beyond that jumped them up to 1,200,000?

    I've noticed that with DMs who use roleplay instead of, or in addition to, skill checks create a world where fighters are less pigeonholed into combat only roles, and where skill monkies and casters lose some of their exceptional versatility. Likewise, in personally tailored campaigns, DMs...

    Rods, the weapons they turn into, and proficiencies.

    There we were, running down a party of scoundrels on a small herd of war elephants. It was shaping up to be a great day. They took a turn down a narrow ravine so that we were forced into a single file line. At the end of the ravine, there was a high rock wall - a trap! One of the runners had...

    No full caster, Low Magic, High level fighting Undead... I need help.

    BoED has the Soulfire armor property (+4 grants permanent Death Ward) which'll make you immune to bad stuff. Ring of Negative Protection (36k) grants immunity to negative levels.

    Social Encounter Problems, need help!

    Thankfully, playing an emotionless sect is fairly easy. First, think of what a cat would do if it didn't have curiosity. There is no awe, no shame, no joy, no grief, no disgust, no fear or apprehension. Everyone is perfectly fine with everything, and everything is perfectly fine. In your...

    Necklace of Prayer Beads and Caster Level

    IIRC, prior to 3.5 and errata changes, if Dispel Magic failed to dispel the highest CL spell, Dispel Magic failed against that target. So, if a Bless spell had CL17, it'd be hard to make that Dispel Magic check at low levels. Now, if Dispel Magic fails to work, it will keep trying progressively...

    Necklace of Prayer Beads and Caster Level

    Great Necro. As for the answer - each Bead has a specific caster level (Blessing is 1st, Healing is 5th, Karma is 9th, Smiting is 7th, Wind Walking is 11th, and Summons is 17th), and each Strand has a GP cost (Lesser is 9,800, standard is 45,800, and greater is 95,800). Seems Wizards already...

    Before considering different options, why do you want to remove Eldritch Blast?

    The Best Cohort Evar! lvl 10 Character Building Challenge

    Yes, Monk's unarmed strikes are considered natural weapons for all intents and purposes, and can therefor access the Thayan Gladiator PrC. I'd pick Ghost Touch & Speed.

    How do you *play* your Vancian wizard?

    In low level play, I conserve. At higher levels, I've been known to throw out five or six spells to make a difficult encounter trivial, and allowing others to shine when they can do things for us that magic could otherwise accomplish. Hell, on more than one occasion my party has remarked that...

    Anitomical Damage?

    Seems like you're trying to make a Bull Rush attempt, or at the very least an opposed strength check. For a hand that candice only lift 5 pounds , and is at least tiny, seems like a tough sell.

    A world with only... warlocks?

    Imbue Item: A warlock of 12 level or higher can use his supernatural power to create magic items, even if he does not know the spells required to make an item. He can substitute a UMD check (DC15+spell level for Arcane, or DC25+spell level for Divine spells) in place of a required spell he...
