    Looking for some magic items to increase one's fly speed.

    One of a PC in my current campaign just got wings (Dragon Disciple). And I am wondering if I can drop some magic item which can increase his fly speed. Do you know some of such items in 3.5e books?

    D&D 5E (2014) Give me some advices on creating a 5e PC

    Possibly right. But the game will continue for another session and PC's will likely to gain some more levels. That wil give single-classed fighter more abilities (possibly two attacks). And single-classed fighter will have more HPs. Besides, I like the flavor of Eldritch Knight.

    That seems to be a quite interesting alternative. I will read 5e PHB more for utility spells.

    D&D 5E (2014) Give me some advices on creating a 5e PC

    I have been playing D&D for more than 30 yeas. But the game will be my first 5e game. I have noticed that. Now I am thinking about swapping Dancing Lights for usual Light cantrip. By casting Light on a thrown weapon which my EK have weapon bond, he can throw that into some distant place, then...

    D&D 5E (2014) Attacking a square or a point of place?

    Is there a rule for shooting/throwing a weapon into a certain place instead of attacking a creature? I am wondering If I can cast Light cantrip onto a thrown weapon or an ammunition in advance and then shoot into an appropriate place. As Dancing Lights cantrip needs concentration, this way...

    D&D 5E (2014) Eldritch Knight: How often do you actually use War Magic?

    At the level an Eldritch Knight can use War Magic, he can make an extra attack or attacks with an attack action. How often do you actually use War Magic instead of making extra attack(s)?

    D&D 5E (2014) Give me some advices on creating a 5e PC

    It seems that the Paladin is indeed a tank. And the Cleric is a rather tough guy. So I guess I can go somewhat striker-ish. The game is using 27 point buy. I just thought having at least descent number in Dex and Wis (2 of 3 main saves) can be good. But maybe I can drop those 2 stats to 10 and...

    D&D 5E (2014) Give me some advices on creating a 5e PC

    Few weeks later, I will attend my first D&D 5e game as a player. I am meant to create a 3rd level PC and am thinking about making a Fighter (Eldritch Knight). I am not truly going for min/maxing but want to make my PC at least a capable member of the party. That is a PHB only game. So no...

    Cleric-based opponent NPC with special mount or something similar?

    I am trying to make some female opponent Drow NPCs on Riding Lizard. Preferably, Cleric-based one as that is female drow's favored class. Is there any good way for a Cleric-based Drow NPC to have an animal companion, a special mount, or a familiar?

    Bebilith Rend Armor

    Me too. With 4d6+18 damage, a Bebilith can still damage armors with high enhancement bonus or made of Adamantine. I think it is enough. IIRC, an attack which may break items should not be that strong, as it will seriously irritate players.

    Attacking a Net?

    From SRD, With only 5 hit points, it seems that attacking and damaging a net is much easier than escaping from it or bursting it. Is there something I have overlooked? Or is it just so easy? High CR monsters such as Bebilith demon or Monstrous Spiders have attacks similar to net attack. And...

    Vermin with Fiendish Creature Template

    Usually, a template does not add skills nor feats as a creature with template still retains the features of the original type, and the number of HDs does not change. But in case when a fiendish creature template is added to a vermin, the creature's INT score changes from "-" to 3. Should this...

    Giving longer darkvision ability to Yochlol

    Dark Hunter will do as it extends by 30 feet twice. 60 + 30 + 30 =120 feet. As I am planning to use some Yochlols as assassins, the class works very well.

    Illumination in Undardark cities and homes

    Most of the Underdark denizens have Darkvision abilities. What should be the typical illumination level of underdark cities and homes of underdark denizens, especially Drow? Do they prefer total darkness in their cities and homes? Or do they want some degree of illuminations for recognizing...

    Fighting like Darth Maul

    It is obvious that Darth Maul has influenced double weapons, especially Two-Bladed Sword. But how can I create a NPC villain which actually fights like him? I mean, using a two-bladed sword (possibly with brilliant energy or some light-related abilities) and unarmed strike simultaneously...

    Giving longer darkvision ability to Yochlol

    Yochlol demon tend to take a shape of female drow. But Yochlol's darkvision is 60 feet, much shorter than that of usual drow. I found it is inconvenient for them to act as spies. Aside from Deeper Darkvision and Dragonsight spells (both of them are in Spell Compendium) what can give them longer...
