This sort of thing works well if it can be done smoothly and fast. Otherwise it gets boggled down in all the steps and dice rolling. This is strictly an area that the DM has to be comfortable with.

O.O Hot Dog, you go Pathfinder! This promises to be ridiculously useful for my Alchemist, thank you @paradox42!

This guy loves Sturges. Granted, this was for a Pathfinder game, where they exist on the Summon Nature's Ally I list. My Halfling Druid would Summon them in descending order of Spell level. 1d4+1 Sturges with a SNA III, than 1d3 Sturges with SNA II, etc. I would send them in waves against...

I'm fairly new to Pathfinder, so still figuring differences between 3.5 and this. However, according to the FAQ Here, I was of the understanding that Alchemists are not casters and cannot meed prereqs for Craft Wondrous Item. I do get how an Alchemist can work with another caster, however...

I've recently started a new Pathfinder game and I've rolled up a Gnome Alchemist, I'm new to the class and I'm expecting a lot of fun out of it. Upon reading the Alchemical Allocation Formulae, It appears to me that I only need to prepare one potion of all my other formulae and then prep this...

The price is fulfilling an epic adventure to earn it. If your GM is lenient, perhaps the cost is a creative back story of whatever this PC did around level 17ish?

I personally own most of the 3.5 material. My rule has always been to allow any books except Unearthed Arcana, because of the variant systems. Magazine material needs to be run by me first. Rediculious character builds are kept in check my telling my PCs that if they make something broken, I...

I'd figure a level or two of Bard would be mixed in for lore and knowledge checks.

This sounds really cool and fun, If the DM can either handwave or come up with dice rolls fast enough to figure the mechanics. How I'd do this as a DM: -Want to swing a door into the opponent's face? Cool, have the player roll an attack with a -4 for improvised weapon, have the opponent roll...

I've been confused by most of this post, and this one most specifically. The statement about powerful or weak being up to the DM is contrary to your OP, I'm not sure what your views are. Much of your posts about Wizards describe the mindset of the Wizard and the cultural opinion of the world...

Are you looking to design a dungeon from scratch, or are the above suggestions of working off existing adventures more what you are looking for?

Additionally, undead tend to kill the living when given the opportunity. Reproduction and hunger are powerful driving forces, and the primary way to make more undead and feed undead is to kill living. That tends to be viewed as Evil by those living.

Commonly, those who create undead do so with evil intentions. Because it makes for good story plot. What also makes for good story is the good guy who uses undead. I've seen many an interesting Dread Necromancer PC do cool things.

It sure isn't mundane. Divine Magic is different than Arcane magic. Psionics is magic, from a 3rd source. Mechanically, it operates this way.

It's cliche, but include tentacles, wisps, worms, anything that wriggles, as a side effect of spells. Mess with the visuals. How about every time an Arcane spell is cast, a small wisp of something enters reality? At the point of effect, minuscule, wiggly somethings spatter out and wriggle...

In my experience, 1 magic item to boost INT above 2, 1 magic item to grant language, is sufficient to trigger command word magic items. I second @Grogg of the North's suggestion. I'm playing a Pathfinder game as a Halfling Druid with a Tiger animal companion. Having downtime in a large city...

Ohh.... The Gnome Wizard in our party might be able to do this. I'll ask my DM. Thanks.

If you're the DM or otherwise have the freedom to create the character, would a single level dip into Wizard or Sorcerer for your Fighter or Monk character be enough to meet the prereqs?

Doesn't Savage Species have the Awaken Construct spell?

Can you cite the book the ritual comes from?
