"Magical plague" isn't a spell, ability, or supernatural effect. It is the DM saying "hey, this sounds like a fun plot". Orcs are physiologically different to many other races, so it makes sense that they'd be susceptible to a targeted contagion. They are similar enough that it would probably...

Turtlebuster You have a 30 AC. With Iron Guard's Glare, you must threaten your opponents to have any affect whatsoever. With Shieldmate and White Raven, your allies must be adjacent to you. Most people already have a Deflection bonus better than +3, so Shield of Faith probably isn't helping...

AC is only one of the possible defenses a character can have, and is actually the least effective of them all. D&D isn't suited for the MMO "tank" mechanic. There is nothing stopping enemies from targeting other forms of defense - Spell/Power resistance, elemental resistances, or saving throws...

Plague in the water supply, targets Orcs. Everyone needs water, my friend, even if it is just to make beer with.

I'd say "yes". The text for Powerful Build suggests that it works while under the effects of powers/spells/abilities, so why not for a template?

Eldritch Blasts are Spell Like Abilities, which are (in general) standard actions. So, nope. Eldritch Glaive allows you to, though.

Players: Destroying everything a DM has ever painstakingly planned out since 1974.

Make an addendum to the Claws of Darkness (as it pertains to the Cloak) in that it should bypass hardness - this will give you the "cleaving concrete" effect that you're looking for.

I <3 Necro.

A practitioner of capoeira is called a malta.

The D&D Elf is definitely Wizard. They're long lived, studious individuals with a passion for the arts and magic - perfect complement to the "book smart" Wizard archetype. Druids are so rare that they couldn't be a favored class, and Rangers are more solitary than Elves (very social people)...

The fluff of favored classes is actually pretty solid. When the majority of the race tends toward one particular class, the way they raise their children will reflect the values and ideals represented by that class, making new children tend toward those values and therefor that class. Warrior...

I'll get to your other questions in the morning, my wife is having a party and I'm not going to be around much longer. He's already quite strong for CR23. Increasing his ability scores to those would put him easily into the CR25 area.

Oeczuel, Angel of Fire Large Outsider (Angel, Extraplanar, Good) Divine Rank: 0 HD: 25d8+125 (325) Initiative: +7 Speed: 40', Fly 120' (good) AC: 48 BAB/Grapple: 25/38 Attack: +5 Sacred Burst Bastard Sword +38 melee (2d8+15/19-20) or Slam +33 (2d8+14) Full Attack: +5 Sacred Burst Bastard Sword...

I'm still fine tuning it. I'm not sure I want him to be a CR 19 or a CR 23.

He did enjoy his "ordinary folk become legends and heroes" fantasy, rather than the "exceptional individuals do what they're supposed to do" type.

As I recall from a Q&A he did, he used the 3d6 arranged to taste method.

TKDB Force is a great property. Thanks for the idea.

Nezkrul I'm well aware of the drawbacks to Archery in general, and I wouldn't usually play one (hence why I was seeking additional assistance with it). The DM requested I play a martial ranged class. I'm trying to get as far away from "situational awesomeness" as I can.

When I rolled Sekhmet (a 2e Necromancer), she had a 9 Con, a Str of 8, Cha of 7, and Dex 11. Int and Wis were 17 each. My companions weren't saying "Wow, you got two 17's", they were saying "Haha, you got low rolls". Basically, instead of going into the rolling process with a preconceived...
