    D&D 3E/3.5 First time Druid help (3.5e)

    I'm set to play my first druid and will be starting at level 10 and am looking for feat recommendations, as well as items (have 49000gp, no more than 1/2 spent on 1 item), and wild shape forms for combat. I think for feats, Natural Spell is a must, but that's about as far as I know for sure...

    Brain can't wrap around LA+3 template

    Okay, stupid question time. If I were to take the half dragon template (LA+3) and applied it to create an ECL 6 character, would how many of what hit dice would he have, 3dX from class levels, or 3dX from LA and 3dX from class levels? Thanks for helping me become a little less ignorant :)

    D&D 3E/3.5 3.5 Alter Self question

    I'm playing my first magic user in a 3.5 campaign and was looking at the Alter Self spell. In 3.0 you could use it to change features (add wings etc), but in 3.5, it looks like you have to pick an alternate form completely (5hd or less), ie. change into a gargoyle. Am I reading that correctly...

    Scrags aka sea trolls

    The rules state that they only regenerate when mostly immersed in water. Would you allow them to regenerate when in the rain? If so, how heavy would it have to be raining? Or would you allow them to regenerate, just not as quickly? Or is this stretching the rules too much?

    Search vs. Spot

    Example scenario 1: You're under fire from a hidden opponent(s). You're behind some cover and trying to locate your attacker(s). Example scenario 2: You're in a large cluttered storeroom. You know your quarry is in here, but where? As the skills are written, when Search is used, you must be...

    Bypassing DR

    When it comes to DR (3.0e), what bypasses what? Specifically, does an Adamantine weapon bypass DR/+1, does a +1 weapon bypass DR/Adamantine. What about DR/Silver? Thanks.

    Poisons, Antitoxins and Antidotes: 101

    I'm starting a new campaign this weekend and one of the players wants to play a rogue that uses poisons. Now I don't have a problem with this (the local authorities might :] ), but I'd like to understand Antitoxins and Antidotes a little better. I'm asking for some relatively simple comments...

    Assistance with a Sorcerer build

    Well, I guess I'll throw my hat into ye old "help me build a character" ring. In an online campaign I'll be playing in, I'd like to play either a Pally or a Sorcerer. The Pally is easy enough to build, but with the limited spells and feat selection being quite important for sorcerers I thought...

    Value of a spellbook

    How do you determining what a spell book is worth if you wanted to sell it? My Rogue got his hands on one so I was just wondering. Being the nice guy that he is, he'll probably just turn it over to the wizards in the party when they meet up again, but I was wondering what kind of monetary...

    Campaign setting recommendations

    Long time lurker (very long time), first time poster here. And I've come in search of the infinite wisdom of those on these boards. I've been playing D&D for about 5 years now, and am thinking trying the DM's chair. I am quite aware of the amount of time and effort that goes into creating a...
