    What role has the Incarnate played? (from Magic of the Incarnum)

    Hello all! I recently purchased Magic of the Incarnum and while I generally like the book I can't seem to get a grasp on what the Incarnate's role in a party is. Versatility seems to be its biggest strength but power wise it just looks weak. It looks like it could be a backup fighter or skill...

    Questions about Illusion magic.

    I am planning to write an adventure that will feature a high level Illusionist and his “Castle of Illusions” as a major antagonist. I’ve read over the Illusion spells but I wanted to make sure I’ve got everything clear. Most of my questions revolve around figments and adjudicating their...

    I fianally got around to watching the Last Exile anime that aired on TechTV last month. Its basically the story of Kluas and Lavi - pilot and navigator of a Van ship (think biplane without the wings) who get caught up in and ongoing war between several factions. The style is sort of...

    Do the Etools patches make it work?

    Sorry if this question has been asked to death but I did a quick check and could not find any direct answers to this. When E-tools first came out I had the impression it was filled with errors and bugs and was almost unusable. With the patches out now has that changed? I would really like a...

    Savage Species: Calculating skills

    Trying to create some monster characters (Hound Archon) and I was wondering how to determine skill maximum. Is is based off of HD or "Monster Level"? I can't find anywhere where it specifically says one way or the other. I know that skill points are based on HD but it seems for balance...

    What are the rules of the Matrix?

    I know that the "rules" change as we get deeper into the movies but I thought it might be interesting to list out what we know. Also, I am not clear on how some things work - it would be great to get other insight into that. So here goes From The Matrix We know the following: Humans freed...

    X-bows at point blank range

    I am looking for rules to simulate a bow, crossbow or gun aimed at someones head (or a knife at the throat). Due to the nature of Hit Points in D&D high hit point characters are generally not threatened by being in this situation and will probably just take a hit and continue fighting. I would...

    Maximum HP for 20th level?

    Using just core rules and the class books what is the maximum number of HP a 20th level character can have not counting Magic Items. The most I can come up with is 547 (587 while raging) for a Dwarf Barbarian 6/Forsaker 10/Fighter 4. At 20th level Constitution is 35 (39 while raging). I took...

    Why only even number of skill points per level?

    Why do all core classes (and prestige classes as far as I know) get an even number of skills per level? Is there a game balancing reason for this? Factoring in intelligence bonuses can of course grant an odd number but why are there no classes with for example 3 skill points/level? I...
