alright, that was a load of useless flame. kudos to both of you. now back on topic. the actual answer is: no, Dragonnety, DR does not stack.

i think the trick is you actually can make an off-hand attack only if you attack with both weapons on the same round. if you only attack with one hand (be it right or left) - no off-hand attack occures, no penalty needed. i believe that off-hand rule doesn't represent "handedness", but rather...

Well, i think it's a cool PrC. But Boots of Elvenkind are not exactly what a PC would like to receive at 7-th level. Items that grant lowlight vision are actually useless as Ruathars get lowlight vision on 2nd level. I try to give them something that can be useful on higher levels, like Quiver...

happened to me once. players wanted to play dirty and gain lots of extra money from every encounter? great, decreased the normal treasure per encounter in half and let them start on a corpse-trading quest. they actually managed to haggle for more, than i previously planned for them to have. but...

why dwarves need wood? haven't you played Dwarven Fortress? :D on a more serious note, wood is a commonly used resource. you use it for furniture, certain crafts and tools, doors (yes you don't make all that of metal even if you're a dwarf - it's much more expensive and time consuming). plus...

as an alternative, before each strike opponent rolls a spot check (DC 15 or so). if he doesn't beat the DC he is denied dexterity bonus to his AC for that strike.

dimensional shift? a magical catastrophe forced two planes to exchange terrains. so the sea is now somewhere else while a barren desert appeared in its place.

i just use circumstance modifiers to Diplomacy DCs. as a DM i have full right to do that. for instance, if PC is very eloquent and makes very good points or just hits his opponent's weak spot i might lower the DC. if PC won't even try to roleplay the check, the DC increases. easy and efficient.

i second the small race. grapple won't be an issue if your DM doesn't houserule the Abrupt Jaunt (he might, cause it's broken). when i play summoners, i usually take Cloudy Conjuration feat (CM) for cool flavour and nice benefit. Master Specialist PrC from the same book is also a solid pick for...

i'd certainly make a beguiler.

Jasmine - a beautiful young girl born to some provincial merchant. in fact she is so beautiful that even some male gods fall for her, which may end up in a bloody and world-shattering feud. Whiskers - a catfolk mystic who have found a way to cheat death (yeah, he's got 9 lives now, will be tough...

don't touch the Duelist PrC! stop taking swashbuckler levels. multiclass to rogue and take Daring Outlaw feat. if no multiclassing allowed, maybe try meeting the prereq's for the Streetfighter (CAdv) and then jump to Scarlet Corsair (SW). (maybe try a different DM. this one seems weird.)

take Binder levels for healing via (Su).

factotum and binder can fill in healer roles.

Jaebrin (MM V) get -2 STR, +2 CHA and a few other interesting abilities overall good for a sorcerer (favoured class is beguiler though). at the price of +1 LA.

it doesn't even have to be a lich. if you want your party to be low-level, try a vampire. they're pretty good at fleeing the scene, especially until PCs don't hit at least mid-levels. another good side - he'll be able to slowly progress in levels as the module goes on, surprising PCs with his...

DMG p.135 and PHB p.22

my favourite trick for sneaky types is a Panic Button (Escaping) from CS. basicly it's a single-use dimension door as a swift action. not very powerful, good for low level campaigns.

it's not that she can't play her character as she "wants". it's that she can't play her character as the rules go. and without warning your players beforehand that you've houseruled something, you're basicly cheating them, hiding behind the Rule 0. i wouldn't be surprised if they started leaving...

archon hound hero? also calling an advanced version of a monster seems a bit cheesy. as a DM i'd only allow to call thus customized creature if it actually existed in the campaign and you knew it personally or it's name at least.
