    Homebrew Race in need of LA +1 ??

    Oh, the tauren, then? Anyway, that doesn't matter. It does definitely look like an LA +0, as it is. It does kind of feel like it's missing something, though.

    Homebrew Race in need of LA +1 ??

    Just out of curiosity here, I see some racial traits, but otherwise no description of what this race is. Perhaps the other members don't need it, but what is this race? I mean, what do they look like, and if relevant, what niche do they fill in the world?

    Power Word, What?

    Huh. Well... very good then. Thank you.

    Power Word, What?

    Not much to say here. I'm trying to design an illumian gestalt wizard/truenamer for a Pathfinder-ish 3.5 conversion of Return to the Tomb of Horrors. Although he's supposed to be optimized, I also need fulfill a set of criteria as much as possible. This character has a fascination with language...

    Heavily Armored Dwarf, Optimization help?

    I would not go with the first level option because the character uses deadly concussion, which requires him to use a bludgeoning weapon. For the 8th level substitute, this is a 7th level character. Although I've looked around a bit, and realized that it may be a good idea to pick up Combat...

    Heavily Armored Dwarf, Optimization help?

    Hmm. I checked over those Devotion feats; you're right, they're good stuff. I noticed from SS, though, that he qualifies for Thick Skinned, and can take it twice. That would be a total of DR 13/adamantine for him, rather than 9. How do you think that compares with the benefits of those devotion...

    Any recommendations on something that would be worthwhile, Empirate?

    The greathammer shifts from 1d12 at Medium to 3d6 at Large, if that answers your question.

    Heavily Armored Dwarf, Optimization help?

    I've decided to go with Jack's suggestion, and filled in that last level with one of crusader. That lets me take different feats in the place of Martial Stance and Martial study, and I've decided to go with EWP (Goliath Greathammer) and Monkey Grip. I also replaced Born Under the Half Moon with...

    Heavily Armored Dwarf, Optimization help?

    I've only got one level to spare, though. Mineral warrior has +1 LA... I'm not really sure. The DM didn't say, but I did get the impression that I was supposed to be playing it. Not that I'll be disappointed if it's the other way, though. Hmm. Let's go with playable character to be safe.

    Heavily Armored Dwarf, Optimization help?

    As much as I like ToB, I really can't believe I hadn't considered taking a level in crusader. An no, I have no issue with dipping in to pick up features. Not really a reason for avoiding casting as much as a feel. I would enjoy this character to leave casting to the other players and their...

    Heavily Armored Dwarf, Optimization help?

    I've slowly been building a ridiculous ~3.75 dwarf by the request of my DM. I would like some help with building him, and he is supposed to be optimized as much as possible with a 75-pt stat buy. I'm allowed to use any source that I can both find and provide to the DM, so even Dragon magazine...

    Small Elan

    I'd love to use the prc, but do you have any suggestions on how to get graft flesh once the character reaches level 7, or a way to get it while ignoring the 10 skill ranks prerequisite?

    Small Elan

    I like the psychology for that kind of creation, and making him a small person is certainly on my list of options. I would just rather have a rules-supported reason why he's small, so there are fewer things for me to justify with this character. Playing a symbiot isn't exactly normal... How...

    Small Elan

    I know the requirements for Symbiotic Creature; that's why the Elan must have the Human Heritage feat. I'd like to go with the elan because this character is designed to have started as human, but has done everything in his power to embrace the Quori, who he worships as deities. As a part of...

    Small Elan

    I'm not sure if I could simply apply the size change adjustments to this character, and I would need to come up with a reason why I'd be allowed to. I cannot apply a DM fiat or similar reason to this situation because I am not the DM. I need a reason to convince my DM why this could be allowed...

    Small Elan

    I need a way to make an elan size Small rather than Medium. If it cannot normally be done with an aberration type creature, a humanoid alternative will work. I know that this can be done with the reduce person spell, but I need a nonmagical, or at least non-revokable, way to make this work...
