    Poison making materials

    There's some good stuff in that Arsenic & Old Lace thread. I know for certain that poisons made by the creation spells disappear after the duration. However, the death that results from killing someone with a temporarily created poison is permanent (well, as permanent as death is in D&D...) so...

    Animated Shields

    1) yup. 2) other than for mechanical balance, I don't know. If I were your DM and you asked nicely, I'd handwave the proficiency, spell failure and armor check penalties. For the cost of a +2, you should get something cool.

    Using and Abusing the Item Creation rules

    Just my 2 cents, but an Item Granting Speech already exists for 600gp.

    What kind of problems am I likely to see?

    Expect a neat trick that can be saved against, and cool character flavor. Scout/Shadowdancer should lend to Rogue feel. Once he get's a Shadow familiar, those are dandy with STR draining touch attacks but they're pretty fragile. I can't imagine horrible abuse from this sort of character build.

    What is the most damaging one shot spell?

    At 1 hour/level, and since the OP stated level 20 caster level if you dump this into the water supply you just might kill most of a city in 20 hours time. I don't know how much it would dilute into a water supply. I was thinking just soaking one person in it, but yeah. Minor Creation makes...

    The price of losing your spellbook??

    This results either by: -Very foolish PC -DM choice If it's the former, then serves the foolish PC right. If it's the latter, I'd hope the DM has a plan to reunite or re-compensate. As well as keep it entertaining for the player who needs to creativity in the meantime.

    Can an Animal be a boss

    For these animals to be worth the bother of searching the world to recapture, they must be some kind of special. What makes them special? Is it because somebody with a ton of money wants them back, or are they in fact unique? If they are unique, what makes them unique? Does that uniqueness...

    The Archivist;- from where else can he/she learn new spells?

    First thing I think of is Domain spells, being Divine, are not accessible to all Clerics. It would be practical for Clerics to share domain spells on scrolls. Secondly, since casters have a limit of spells per day, having scrolls on hand means having a backup supply of magic when your out...

    SAVE MY SPELL SLOTS!!!

    Respond back with "If I have less spells per day, I will need to rest more often and be done with the adventuring day". If this is not truly the case, then you'll be ok without them.

    The Archivist;- from where else can he/she learn new spells?

    The purely mechanical application of this is learning from scribed scrolls. This gets really useful when you get your hands on Druid scrolls. However, there roleplaying application of a DM having an Archivist exploring an ancient tomb and finding a spell on an old stone tablet, or pulling...

    What is the most damaging one shot spell?

    Minor Creation. To make Black Lotus Extract (scroll down) because it is a "nonmagical object of nonliving plant matter". Since a Vial holds 1 ounce of liquid, and Minor Creation makes 1 cubic foot per level, and there are about 957 Ounces in a cubic Foot, you're looking at 3d6 x 957 Constitution...

    In need of two custom magic items.

    Help me understand what it is the Stone Cube is supposed to accomplish, and I might be able to point out some existing sources that can do something similar. For example, if you're looking for an Obstruction-in-a-can, I'd imagine a Wall Of Stone spell could accomplish this. Since the Trapsmith...

    In need of two custom magic items.

    Couldn't Stone Cube be replicated with the Shrink Item spell? Take a stone chunk, cast the level 3 arcane spell, carry the cube in your pocket to toss down when needed? You can either carry a wand of Shrink Item, which would cost you 22,500gp to have a wand that does this 50 times, or cast...

    Nymph's Kiss will get you +1 skillpoint per level, and a few other bonuses. I'd be interesting to roleplay acquiring that one. Apprentice will get you +2 at the get go, and add 2 skills as class skills.

    Role-playing help - Stupid, Uncharismatic but Wise

    I get the impression that when making decisions, he'd often be able to say "That's a good idea" or "That's not a good idea" and be right on the money, but be unable to articulate why.
