    Weapon of Returning?

    What about bullets of returning in an automatic assault rifle? Always reloaded, or just plain suicidal? "Ha, I unleash a volley of 20 bullets at him." "Next round, 20 bullets head for your gun at high speed."

    Charismatic Corpses?

    Nevermind ... should check 3.5 changes before I speak in the future ...

    Please help with magic item pricing

    Sounds like he's trying to abuse the rules a bit. I'd at the very least base this off Arcane Sight and not Detect Magic since this effect is much closer to that spell (which is 3rd level not 1st). You should also take into consideration the costs in experience and money to make Arcane Sight...

    Tiny creature monk damage

    Does anyone know the monk unarmed damage for tiny creatures? I can only find it for small and medium.

    When do you lose spells?

    If a wizard loses her spellbook, how long can she "remember" unused spells? Do they basically stay memorized until she uses them, or do they disappear the next day regardless or after some amount of time?

    Need rules for in game games

    This is for a DragonStar campaign, though it shouldn't matter much except for the races involved. A few years ago Dragon had a gnome issue with some really fun gnome olympic type games. I tried these out and the players had a blast. So now it's time to come up with some new games. The players...

    Why are things immune to crits?

    Soulmechs are the exception, a special case. All other robots in Dragonstar are not affected by critical hits just like other constructs. Torn Assunder provides rules for "critical effects" that still work on creatures not subject to critical hits (for example, cutting off a zombies leg might...

    energy drain

    But that seems to refer to a more general case of DR working to reduce energy drain directly -- they are just pointing out that it doesn't work against things like energy attacks and energy drains. I'm talking about something slightly different if you see what I'm getting at ... that there is no...

    energy drain

    Thanks. But it still seems a little ambiguous about how DR works ... though it does seem to at least imply that you would have to bypass DR even if it isn't explicit.

    energy drain

    Is that one per round period, or one per round per victim?

    energy drain

    It actually seems a bit unbalanced to me ... the saves the next day seem like most of the time they will be trivial (with exceptions of course) since like you said you can either boost them or have access to restoration given time. On the other hand those immediate loses can get pretty scary...

    energy drain

    Thanks.

    energy drain

    Are the initial negative levels from being hit by a vampire automatic, or do you get a saving throw against them as well? I know you get a save after 24 hours to turn them into real level loss, I was wondering about the immediate ones. Are these negative levels also fatal if they equal or...

    Shadow Conjuration

    That would be my initial inclination too. But what about something like, I don't know, a light spell? Doesn't only affect you ... so people who believe the illusion can see better than people who don't? Or here's a good one ... you summon something with the ability to gate in other creatures ...

    Shadow Conjuration

    Ok, that was a completely silly and useless response. If you read my post it should be quite clear that that was a random example and nothing to do with the point of my question. Pick some random non-targeting ability *like* teleport. How about the magically ability to make your nose pink...

    Shadow Conjuration

    Yes ... doesn't change anything I wrote ... what is that is confusing you?

    Your Exp with Psi-Chars

    It seems like everyone is just giving you combat related advice for them, which may be what you want. But I wanted to chime in with a different take so you can get a different perspective. While it's true that in combat situations psions are often underpowered, for general "roll playing" they...

    Scent

    I know, that's what I noticed, I was just wondering if I missed something somewhere. Having it all be automatic seems a bit weird to me ... I mean, what if there are a bunch of smells all around, it might not be so easy to pick out individual smells. If you are in a market place, can you really...

    Rolling HP Variant

    I appologize if my HP system has somehow offended you. Our group is quite happy with it, and we will continue to you use it. I just posted it as a suggestion since we like it, I don't really care if anyone else uses it or likes it. My mistake for trying to be helpful.

    Scent

    Does the scent ability work automatically, or do you have to make a spot check to notice something (with some sort of circumstance modifiers?)?
