The spell description says "The affected creature must have its hands free to climb in this manner." Horses don't have hands, but I'm thinking the writer decided "The affected creature must have it hands, feet, hooves or paws free..." was too clumsy.

My players are going through Red Hand of Doom. They've realized they are up against many flying creatures (dragons, manticores, wyverns, etc.) and are trying to create tactics to even the odds. Last game they constructed some harpoons, thethered them to unmovable objects with chains and used...

My group is about to do some adventuring near a subterranean waterfall. I'd like to create some sort of mold or fungus similiar to Brown Mold. Brown Mold sucks up heat, dealin g cold damage to those who get too close. I'd like my "Purple Mold" to suck up water, dehydrating those who get too...

We had a rule dispute come up during out last game. Can you use the spell Suggestion with the instruction "Kill your allies."?

My wife is playing her first DnD character ever, an elven fighter / beguiler. She just hit 3rd level in beguiler and gets to pick a new 1st level spell to add to her spell list with the class ability "Advanced Learning". The spell has to come from the illusion or enchantment school. We took a...

A target of an overrun attempt can choose to simply avoid the overrun, moving out of the way with "no ill effect". Does that movement provoke an attack of opportunity from other enemies in the area? I'm not sure if "no ill effect" simply refers to the consequences of the overrun (being knocked...

I have a druid who is immune to "nature's lure", and a bard who needs to do some counter -songing. I'd like to have some sort of encounter with a fey who uses music to enchant the party, but I don't know WHY the fey would do that. What do fairies, pixies and satyr's want anyway? As far as I can...

I have a 4th level party. One of them is playing a bard, and I'm having a tough time finding decent magic items for her. She's the arcane spell caster of the group, and doesnt want to get involved in melee. I also have an archer ranger who will be snagging any ranged magic items. I'd like to...

My players are going to be heading through a massive underground cavern, large enough to hold cities within it. I've been looking for some pics to help convey the vastness of the space, but I haven't had much luck. Can anyone point me to some images that depict the epic scope of such a cavern?

I have a player (who always plays wizards) playing a cleric in my new campaign. He insists he's not min/maxing but most of his choices appear to be made solely for their tactical value ("cleric is just the best class", "I want to play a 'little person' who rides a dog and wileds a lance, but I'm...

My PCs are now serving as the king's personal bodyguard/troubleshooters. I figure they deserve some sort of monthly stipend. Any idea how much that should be? I've been trying to find something in the DMG/DMGII/PHB/PHBII but there's really no consistent economic model in the game (which is...

My players are going to attend a tournament. They are very excited to participate in the joust. I was thinking of doing something where each rider rolls to hit, and if successful rolls a grapple check. The higher grapple roll unseats the other. A couple things I don't like about this: 1) it...

One of my players rolled up a 1st level halfling and wanted a good-aligned worg as his mount. I said "no, but you can have a wolf with the same stats as a riding dog and overtime I'll let you 'level-up' your mout until it has the stats of a good-aligned worg" I thought I had seen a paladin...

One of my players is playing an "archer" ranger. He'd like to take a prestige class but hasnt found anything he likes. We've made up our own PrClasses before, and I just don't want to go through the hassle. here's the email he sent me. Hope you can help... "Okay, we're proooobably going up a...

I'm building a setting for a new campaign that doesn't differentiate between wizardly and priestly magic. I'm pulling some of my inspiration from Dark Sun, and making spellcasters draw on elemental forces to cast spells. Additionally, a combination of all four of the basic elements create a...

One of my players wanted to know if you still received your Attacks of Opportunity if you choose full defense as your action for the round. I hopped right to the PHB, but I couldn't find anything about the Full Defense action. I started wondering if I'd made the whole thing up... The way we...

I've got a player playing a dwarven fighter, and after getting bored with taking level after level of fighter, has decided his character will become pathologically obsessed with fire. His character has begun worshipping the elemental princes of the plane of flame to give him something else to...

There weren't any stats for the Brain Golem on the Creature Catalog last time I checked, so I was hoping you guys could help me out. I'll take old 2e stats or converted 3e stats. Thanks!

I've got a player who will be rolling up barbarian for his next character, and as a b-day present I was gonna get him some sort of supplement. He already has Masters of the Wild... is there any other splat book for barbarians?

So my PCs are off to sea, and to throw something a little different at them I decided running into a brutal storm at sea would be a nice change of pace. Problem is... I can't think of too much for them to DO. Part of the problem is that I'm not really sure how to handle a ship in a storm (the...
