Can you be in melee combat with a foe, fighting defensively, and select an enemy mage across the room for your dodge enemy and use melee evasion against his ray spells? Thanks ~D (Feat is from the PHB II)

I suppose "information" can be construed to be untrue or true but how do you adjucate this? Low rolls = Untruths? Truths and Untruths interspersed at each roll level (10/15/20/25/30)? It says higher rolls produce "better" information.. Can you only "gather information" regarding one subject...

what is the best combat-oriented animal form for a 5th level druid? any wotc books (non faerun) are fine. thanks very much ~D

quick question: does a creature (say, a giant with a slam attack; eg. it is considered armed (with a "natural weapon") even when unarmed) need the feat improved unarmed strike to gain the feat, improved grapple? Thanks ~D

quick point of clarification: 1. a ranger/wizard casts a scorching ray at a favored enemy - Does he get the bonus damage? for each ray? 2. a ranger/wizard casts a magic missile at a favored enemy - Does he get the bonus damage? for each missile? 3. a ranger/wizard casts a lightning bolt at a...

From 1E Rules Module (Hall of the Fire Giant King): I am converting this to 3.5E rules (in rather more detail than I have seen elsewhere) and need some advice how to adjucate the above actions. If I break it down: CONDITIONS: Giant and victim ("the adventurer", a medium-sized humanoid) are...

{search is timing out for me - I know these have been kicked around before} 1. Can a creature using nondetection have any protection from see invisibility? (seems so) 2. Will misdirection have any effect against see invis? (does not seem so) PHB.p.257: NONDETECTION PHB.p.255:MISDIRECTION...

Is bestow curse stackable for the same types of effects; In particular: PHB p.203 So a clieric with two or three of these memorized may continue to cast this spell on the same subject causing the same penalty. The (negative) bonus is "unnamed" (DMG p.21) and "curse" does not seem to be a...

Can move 600ft per round insubstantially (although accompanied by a "Magical wind"); Lasts one hour per level and each person affected can act independently; So - Assuming you have a "snatch and grab" dungeon or a "kill the main bad guy" dungeon, how do you counter? Seems like it is much...

simple point of clarification: can you use the 'combat maneuver' portion of telekinesis on the round the spell is cast? (v.3.5) Thx ~D

Can the spell stone shape be used to entrap a creatures legs? What if the creature is not moving (helpless? entangled?)? If prepared correctly, could this not be used to create a pit (using multiple castings), then cover said pit and finally, a readied stone shape to drop someone crossing it...

Question: What type of spells may be cast while in the stone? Range: Personal only? Range: Touch? Range: Other? (such as Clairvoyance)Any further restrictions (due to being "in stone")? Any thoughts on using this in conjunction with blink (Range:Personal)? PHB p252 Thanks, ~D edited...

In another version of the game, a "charmed" or otherwise forced spell caster could not be compelled (ie. "casting under duress") to cast spells. In 3.5, assuming a failed save, is there anything that would prevent the victim of, say, a domination spell, to cast a spell on behalf of the...

A quick clarification needed: What is the "plus" in relation to a sunder attempt against a (for example): +1 flaming longsword with GMW +3 cast on it? a) +3 (only GMW) b) +4 (still flaming and +3 GMW) c) +2 (no benefit for GMW) d) +5 (everything stacks! go monty!) (GMW=greater magic weapon)...

I am getting ready to play in a 3.0E D&D game - where the world is taken over by undead. Here is the character concept: "Ash was once a happy, (almost) normal guy who had a good job at S-Mart (Housewares) and a pretty girlfriend. But all that changed when he and his girlfriend decided to visit...

Questions Regarding A Succubus: 1. If we assume that the phrase "can assume any humanoid form of Small to Large size" to mean that a succubus may only assume the form of a *humanoid* (as defined by the monster manual), can someone give an example of a large-size *humanoid*? Otherwise, should...

This has been troubling me for a while now: 1. Cleric casts silence on rogue 2. Rogue moves next to BadGuy Wizard 3. Rogue readies an action to follow B. Wizard if he moves. Now: What happens? Because this is a "turn based" system, the Wizard makes a motion to move. Ah ha! The rogue's action...

A former good cleric (NPC), turned into a ghost (but not evil; long story) wants to cast a healing spell (he is still receiving spells from his diety). One, is this possible given his "negative planular nature"? He may cause damage at the same time and may take damage (i suppose) during the...

what is included? It states the familiar gets the sorcerer's base "base saves". Would this include "divine grace" from a paladin (or similar) multiclass? Thx, ~D
