Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere. I searched and I checked the book, and I couldn't find an answer, leading me to believe that everyone caps at 20. I could understand that, but it would seem to water down the racial differences.

My character is a highly customized level 21 sorcerer (caster level 20) who specializes in Force Spells and Force Missiles. The obvious choice for my third 9th level spell is Maw of Chaos (to go with Time Stop and Wish - which both makes oodles of sense for my character...). However, rather...

Where (if anywhere) would we find rules for a Paladin Special Mount for a "Large' Paladin? We have a minotaur Paladin in our game (each of us plays a +2 LA race/template). We've just made 4th level tonight, so we're working on 5th. When he hits 5th he can call his Special Mount, however...we...

Question... If a character of a specific race were allowed racial spell-like abilities from the Enchantment school of magic, however the character took the Enchantment school of magic as one of their prohibited schools of magic in order to specialize... Would the character still be able to use...

Ok, so I'm thinking about using the Half-Fey Template from Fiend Folio, updated for a 3.5e game. I've never done this before, I typically just pick a core race and go with it. What I don't understand is...the Half-Fey gets all of these special abilities (spell-like abilities I think) by Hit...

So...I'm just trying to understand this. If I grab someone, they can choose not to even bother trying to escape and they can continue fighting me and others around me without penalty, as long as they are willing to stand in one spot to do so? Furthermore, they do not lose nor are they...

Personally, I am very disappointed by the multi-class rules. I don't think it's going to ruin my enjoyment of the game, but it's possible. I started with the limited, interesting options in 1st ed. Then was happy to see those open up a bit in 2nd ed. Then, with 3 and 3.5, I was ecstatic, those...

I was reading this thread and noticed that several posters were talking about finding a resource to assist in building a cosmology not based on the four tenets of good/evil/chaos/law or the four greek elements or the like. That got me to thinking, I'd bet we could each share some pointers on...

So, I'm preparing to run a game right now, I've decided that I'm going to (sort of) allow crits vs. Undead, Constructs, Oozes, etc. What I'm going to do is on a successful crit, allow max damage. (So if you normally do 1d6+2 damage with an attack...on a crit against an undead, you would do 8...

The "Elves" thread in General got me to thinking. If you were going to include a Tolkien-style Elf as a choice in your game, how would you stat it out? Obviously it would be a +LA of some sort, but what exactly. I was thinking I might do it in two versions... A low powered and a high powered...

I started working on a new Homebrew setting last night. Usually I just create these in a vacuum. In other words, I work on it and no one sees any of the work until I'm done and I run the game. I usually do a mix of completely original stuff, items taken from other WoTC material and published...

I am tinkering with a new Homebrew setting I just came up with the idea for this morning. In doing so, I was thinking...two of the things that most irritate casters are failing a roll to beat SR and having the bad guys save and take half or no damage. So I was thinking about coming up with a...

Just as the question is written, how do you pick your setting when you run a game? If you use several of the above options, try to pick whichever you'd say you favor.

The 10ft pole thread got me thinking...what 'essential adventuring equipment' do people make certain they have with them? Now, while you can obviously list certain magic items, but I was aiming more towards mundane (and maybe sometimes exotic) items that you may or may not have a specific use...

Some recent threads have made me curious how other people play. So I thought I'd post a poll. First of all, let me please make it clear that I am NOT at all intending this thread to be critical of any particular style of play. I'm very much of the 'its your game, play the way you want'...

I think I have this right, but want to check. Let's say that my big, slow Goliath Barbarian (racial substitution level) goes last in the turn...and that one of the other people in our group has already moved into melee combat with the target. Can I "Charge" up right behind my teammate and...

Ok, After three days of spinning my wheels, I decided to come here for some ideas. Now, the funny thing is that I have no shortage of ideas, with the stats I rolled using the "Organic" method from the book, I can be pretty much anything I want. However, I do know that I want to be a...

Hayden’s Hyper Missile Swarm Evocation [Force] Level: Sor/Wiz 5 Components: V, S Casting Time: Standard action Range: Long (400 ft + 40 ft/level) Targets: Up to 5 creatures, no 2 of which may be more than 60 ft apart Duration: Instantaneous Saving Throw: None Spell Resistance: Yes Five missiles...

Had a question for you folks. Have you ever rerolled your stats, or thought about rerolling your stats because they were too good. We are starting a new Forgotten Realms game in a few weeks time (starting at 2nd level) and I wanted to make an Aasimar Cleric of Lathander and work towards the...

Just wanted to find out how to format a Photo I think I have it down though.
