    Expand Spell Knowledge of Duskblade

    How many ways are there for a Duskblade to add some non-duskblade spells in his class spell list (and spells known) without multiclassing (or at least without heavy multiclassing)? Arcane Disciple feat in Complete Divine is a good one. But are there some other good ones?

    Need help making evil PC

    Warforged is also (and originally) in Eberron Campaign Setting and is LA+0 race without racial HDs. And do at least moderately well as a wizard. In fact, as Warforged is a living construct, you would better have a sorcerer or wizard for casting repair damage spells instead of usual cure spells...

    Half-dragon as a class

    Just a random thought, but how about making a class which can treat it's class level as if it was racial HD of dragon type creature? There are several interesting dragon only feats in Draconomicon. But many of them are useless for most PCs as they are using racial HDs for determining DC and...

    Classes with Full Spellcasting but without that sort of thing.

    It's a prestige class but Divine Crusader in Complete Divine can only cast spells from one specific domain and can cast 9th-level spell at class level 9+.

    An Incorporeal Undead's... Gear and Feats...?

    Regarding magic items. Shouldn't contingent spell from Complete Arcane work? Say, casting some Inflict Wounds spells when the shadow's hp total is dropped to X.

    MM3: Warforged Charger

    Thank you for a reply emoplato. Well, then next question. Assuming a warforged uses Alter Self spell to change into a Warforged Charger, 1) How should Warforged feats interact with the new Warforged Charger Form? Say, feats such as Adamantine Body, Jaws of Death, etc. Should those feats...

    Half-dragon as a class

    At this point, I am a little bit confused. What is your true goal? Do you wants to make a new class which lets a PC becomes a half-dragon at class level 20? Or do you just want a class which is focused on dragon-like abilities and theme? Or both?

    Half-dragon as a class

    Also, there is a Variant rule column for using Savage Species-like progression which allows you to play a Half-Dragon from the 1st-level, in Races of Dragon P.70.

    Half-dragon as a class

    Technically, there already IS a half-dragon as a class, Dragon Disciple. Then, you can take Dragon Breath feat in Races of Dragon to let the character use it's dragon breath every 1d4 rounds. Then, maybe you can give some levels in Dragon Samurai class in Miniatures Handbook for increasing the...

    MM3: Warforged Charger

    Does a Warforged Charger considered to have hands for the purpose of spellcasting or wielding manufactured weapons? The MM3 says it looks like an ogre-sized gorilla. And it has natural weapons called Adamantine Fists. But I am not sure if it can manipulate material components or wield...

    Swarm's natural armor bonus

    It just happens. Each creatures are made separately, maybe by different person. Also, Fiend Folio is nearly 3.5e but not completely 3.5e. That book was released before the 3.5e core rules came.

    D&D 3.x 3.5e Knowledge Devotion Feat

    I have several questions regarding this feat. 1. Knowledge check for this feat Should the knowledge check should be separately done in addition to normal monster knowledge check? Or should I use the first monster knowledge check made for a certain type of monster in an encounter? 2. Does...

    D&D 4E 4e Conversion Library?

    Years ago, there was a conversion library in EN world which had a lot of 3e/3.5e conversion files for older adventure modules (1e & 2e AD&D, OD&D and such). And it seems that some of the people here are trying to rebuild that library. But shouldn't it be great if we could also have a...

    Ignoring diagonal movement cost?

    FYI, 4e has totally removed the said rule. But as a result, 4e has changed the area templates, too. Basically, everything (including fireball) are squares. If you ignore diagonal movement rule, I recommend to use square areas, too.

    Party effective level

    While I do not say CR is completely useless, I agree with kitcik that trial ane error (or modification based on each DM's experience) is the only way to go. Not just PCs and players, but monsters and DMs are not created equal. The same monster controlled by different DM has different...

    Assassin's and the Good Alignment

    Well, changing one's alignment is not a small matter. And a CE Assassin becoming a good guy must be a big event. How about using rebuild rule in PHB2? Let him do some quest for atonement and reborn. Then he can get rid of his Assassin levels and instead gain some other class levels (and change...

    Shadow Master

    How about Master of Shrouds prestige class in Libris Mortis? Proceeding from cleric, you don't lose much. And you can actually summon undead Shadow.

    D&D 3.x 3.5e 5-10th level campaign & fighter mage

    After several weeks of consideration, I have indeed concluded that the previous builds are too restricted as caster. So now, I have started to focus on using wizard levels. Here are my plan E and F. Both are specialized wizard (conjurer). And both of them are taking Abrupt Jaunt alternative...

    D&D 3.x 3.5e Non-Somatic Wizard Spells

    Does somebody have a list of all the 3.5e wizard spells without somatic component? I have one for PHB. But don't have a list which includes spells from other books such as Spell Compendium, Complete XXXs, etc.
