Cleric Weretiger - Righteous Might

[The Blow Leprechaun]

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

The human didn't change size from the initial spell. You can say any size-changing ability from the first spell is not stacking or stacking with the same example because it would make no difference in that case.

Giant polymorphed into a halfing casts shapechange and turns into a human, then casts righteous might. What happens?

Would it matter if he was turned into a human first, and then a halfling?

Since the size changes don't stack, one would have to supersede the others, probably at caster's choice.

From a balance perspective, the weretiger has paid for his ability to be large with level adjustment and racial hit dice. If he's high enough level to cast righteous might, that makes him, what, 17th level? (6 racial, plus 2 level adjust, plus caster level 9). A wizard at that level is shapeshifting into a pit fiend. A huge weretiger (for 9 rounds) ain't broken.

I mean, c'mon, it seems obvious to me that the point of that restriction is so that you don't cast enlarge person, then righteous might, to be huge at 9th level. It's not meant to stop a creature that is racially large from taking advantage of that power.

I just think it's interesting that the spells that specifically state you increase in size have that stacking restriction right in their wording, and things like polymorph and shapechange, which *could* cause your size to change, don't. So does that mean that polymorph stacks with righteous might, since it doesn't say it doesn't, but righteous might doesn't stack with polymorph?

Anyway. Like I originally said - there's two schools of thought and not enough rules for either side to convince the other that they're right.

Nate is right about their not enough rules on the subject. I like argument A for it is easy and allows for less breaking of the game and cheese.

Think of an ogre weretiger. Shapeshifts to weretiger goes from large to large. Then casts righteous might. Under option A he would not go to huge, I choose B.
