    Turning undead questions

    Good Morning, I've recently started playing a game with a new character who is currently a 1/1 Cleric/Paladin (each character from the campaign had to start with one level in cleric. My plan is to simply continue advancing in Paladin). One of my feats is Extra Turning. When I attain 4th...

    Suggestions to have players play a Cleric.

    There are six of us in our group. When starting a new campaign/adventure (incidentally--we usually start off as 1st-3rd level characters and play until 9thish before starting again), having someone play the cleric is always a chore. I like playing a cleric because of their versatility...am I...

    Rebuke Undead--Alternative uses?

    On page 160 of the PHB, it says under Other Uses for Positive or Negative Energy, "Positive or negative energy may have uses other than affecting undead. For example, a holy site might be guarded by a magic door that opens for any good cleric who can make a turning check high enough to affect a...

    Grappling a stunned opponent

    This situation came up the other day--The PC missed a saving throw and, as a result, was stunned for a number of rounds. Sensing the opportunity, the PC's opponent initiated a grapple with the stunned PC. Under "stunned", the PHB says: "A stunned creature drops everything held, can't take...

    Dragon Disciple Sword & Bite Attack

    My greatsword wielding Sorc1/Fighter4 just advanced to 6th level and earned her 1st level in Dragon Disciple. Once she gains 2nd level DD and picks up her bite and claw attacks, I'd like to be able to use the greatsword as her primary weapon and the bite as a secondary attack. At the moment...

    Cleave questions

    My apologies if this has been covered. Didn't find anything when I searched... Two orcs attempt to rush past Bob the fighter to get to the wizard. Assuming Bob isn't flat footed, he takes an AoO against one of the orcs and kills it. May Bob now take his cleave attack against the other...

    Hold Spells Question

    For the "Hold" spells (person, monster, etc.), the spell description reads, "Each round on its turn, the subject may attempt a new saving throw to end the effect (this is a full round action that does not provoke an AoO)." In essence, the creature gets 2 saving throws before my character has...

    Mage Armor, Touch Attacks, and Incorporeal

    Making sure I've got this correct--Mage Armor (and Bracers of Armor for that matter) surround the recipient with a force field--if you will. Since touch attacks bypass armor, the touch attack bypasses Mage Armor, correct? Secondly, both Mage Armor and/or Bracers of Armor help protect the...

    Keeping racial benefits when Feral?

    A player in my group is playing a Feral Dwarf fighter/barbarian. While the question of the Feral template has been discussed at length, I have a question I couldn't find in previous threads. Does the character keep his racial benefits from being a dwarf once he adds on the Feral Template...

    Run, trip, and dexterity checks

    In several instances, the enemy has managed to run away from the fight. In this instance the bad guy chose to run away and, in the process, passed through the fighter's threatened area in such a way as to incur an AoO. The fighter chose to make a trip attack with his heavy flail as the AoO...
