Cleric Weretiger - Righteous Might

[Darklone]

Think about what happens to a lycanthrope in an antimagic field ?

 

[Machiavelli]

I like argument "A". It can be understood at a glance, without re-reading it.

You stole my argument

And yeah, I'm on side A too.

B... just to be different.

Alternate form... Polymorph... etc. change your type (or form). Any size difference between before and after was not dependant on the magic that got you there. You cannot choose to be a huge Badger... just a regular (WRT its noted size) Badger. YMMV

As cleary shown, I'm on side "A". If it's magic and it changes your size, it's "size changing magic". Period.

This keeps size bumping shenanigans to a minimum.

The text specificly is...

Multiple magical effects that increase size do not stack.

I'm a dwarf. I use alter self to look like a human, which is taller than me. Then I cast righteous might. Do I:

a. gain no benefit from righteous might, because alter self changed my size and RM won't stack?

b. only gain the DR, nat armor, and ability score bonuses without changing size, because only the 'size-changing' part doesn't stack?

c. become a large dwarf, because the higher-level RM supercedes the lower-level alter self?

d. become a large human, because just because something results in a change of size doesn't mean it is 'size-changing magic.'

Y'know, burning hands creates fire, which sheds light. Clearly it is a light spell, and could be countered with darkness!

If you polymorph any object a halfling into a wolf, can you then cast animal growth on the wolf?

Lycanthropy is shape-changing magic. If it happens to change size too, that's just a side effect. It oughta stack. Hell, think of it this way. The person's natural form is of a tiger -- lycanthropy just lets him look human. With that mindset, why shouldn't it work?

Good catch Frank, but a Huge Weretiger sounds damn impressive to me.

A dwarf is medium, a human is medium. Size categories matter.

I found it in hongs closet.

 

[The Souljourner]

Halfling (size small) polymorphs into a dwarf (size medium), then casts righteous might, what happens?

Human (size medium) polymorphs into a dwarf (side medium), then casts righteous might, what happens?

I choose B because I think that the two questions above should have the same answer.

 

[Darklone]

They do but you won't like the answer: "It does not stack". E.g. the halfling is medium with RM and the human is large.

Ahh, but see, it does stack for the human, and doesn't for the halfling. That's the problem I have with that interpretation.
