For the first question I seem to found the answer. From SRD, So the intelligent item act during it's owner's turn. But the owner does not need to take some action to activate it's powers. So, the question is narrowed down to the second one. Assuming an intelligent item noticed some ambushing...

But B is not leaving that square. After moving 5-feet, B is still in the bottom right corner square.

Basically, both muskets and longbows were used in mass. So usually, bowmen and musketeers in the battle fields were composed of low-rank samurai (technically, Ashigaru were low-rank samurai). But higher-ranked samurais were known as the use those weapons, too. Afterwords, if higher-ranked...

Battle of Sekigahara you say? If so, main melee weapon should be long spear, both for mounted and foot Samurai. Rank and file warriors of those days were using pike-like very long spears, more than 20-foot long, on battle field. Maunted Higher-ranked samurai, one with much confidence on his...

I second to delericho. What matter is, in this case, whether the creature B is "in" a particular square or not. If having one square of B's space (composed of 4 squares) in a particular square (right most, lower most one) is enough for being "in a that square" (left picture), B should be still...

Intelligent items have their own sentience and DMG/SRD says " these items think and feel the same way characters do and should be treated as NPCs". Well, how you fellow DMs actually run intelligent items? 1) Do you roll initiative separately from the user? Do you let the item actually act as...

Making it into an intelligent weapon sounds good. Maybe I can give it high enough mental ability scores to gain at least one greater power and give it the ability to cast Daylight spell (along with lessor powers such as Faerie Fire). That will help the champion of Tiamat fighting against...

Well, one of my player's PC, who is a Kensai, lost his signature weapon. So I gave him a rather hard quest (must kill a Wyrm White Dragon!) for getting a new weapon, which is meant to be blessed by Bahamut. The player wanted a Sunblade. Mainly because it seems cool to wield a Sun-themed blade...

From Drow of the Underdark Should Draegloth's 2 smaller arms be usable for something game-mechanic wise? I know it has only two Claw attacks and thus the smaller arms are not strong enough to be usable as natural weapons. But how about other uses? I guess smaller arms are enough for holding...

The former is better, but the latter will do. Well, I am planning to let appear a bunch of Drows who may form the resistant and try to thwart the Drow invasion army (which is now allied with various other evil races). Some of those rebels will contact PCs and lead them to the Underdark, and...

from SRD, Should the categories of Perform skill must be something makes sound? Or, should some of the other categories (such as dance) work? How about magic items such as Crystal Echo Blade or a weapon with Harmonizing ability? Should those items work for a bard whom performs something does...

Is there any deity like Eilistraee of Faerun, which may try to redeem some drow to the good side, in Greyhawk world? I can just declare that Eilistraee is in my Greyhawk world. But if there is some official deity which may do that role, I can use that.

Hmm ... I tried to add 4 Ur-Priest levels to the Aspect of Lolth (18HDs in total) and found that is not much an upgrade. The main problem is that her caster level is only 4 (8 with Practiced Spellcaster feat). She cannot beat Drow lackeys' SR and thus cannot buff or cure them.

Assuming his BAB is +16, he has 4 arms and holding weapons in all of his hands, and has Multiweapon Fighting feat, he attacks at +14/+9/+4/-1 with his main arm, and +14 with other 3 hands. So, 7 attacks in total. In addition to them, he can use his Bite attack as secondary natural attack at +11.

Beware many of the demons and devils had drastic changes (mostly huge upgrades) between 3.0e to 3.5e. Simply replacing 3.0e fiends to the same-named fiends in 3.5e can ends up over-kill. Once when a friend of my running Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil, he just replaced 3.0e Honed Devil to...

I am wondering if I can use Aspect of Lolth as an opponent in my ongoing campaign. But the aspect in Miniatures Handbook and D&D Miniatures are just CR 11 Monster with 14 HDs. She is not strong enough for a party of 15th-16 level PC party. I can just add some more Outsider HDs but That does not...

It is rather off-topic but ... there are a lot of errors in monsters' and NPC' stats, especially in feats and skills. So many of them have wrong feats, wrong number of feats, wrong ranks in skills, etc. So IMHO, when arguing about rules, those examples should be just ignored. Good point. But...

That sounds convincing. Though Spell Focus does not affect spell-like abilities by RAW, the author may thought differently.

I am planning to create a Runestaff (Magic Item Compendium) which allows a caster to cast (Bigby's) Hand spells of all the spell levels. There are 5th-9th Bigby's hand spells in PHB. Miniatures Handbook, Spell Compendium & PHB II contains 1st-3rd spells. But I still cannot find 4th-level hand...

That sounds to be the easiest solution, indeed.
