Denying Dexterity

[JohnnFour]

What are all the ways to deny a PC/NPC their dexterity bonus? Is there a list somewhere already?

 

[mirivor]

Surprised/Flat-footed
Bluffed
Paralyzed/Held
Asleep
DM Fiat
Flanked ( I am not sure if this actually removes dex bonuses or is just used as a trigger for certain conditions)

More if they come to me.

Grappled.

Of course, the problem with grappling is that the allied grappler is as likely to get hit as the enemy. Maybe there's a feat where this isn't the case in some Complete or 3rd party book?

 

[blargney the second]

Blind/Invisibility/Complete darkness
Stunned
Balancing
Climbing

Actually, that is only a problem with ranged weapons. A meelee attacker can choose which grappler to hit, with no chance of hitting the "wrong" person.

I'll bet you could curse someone to have no Dex bonus. And if not, a wish would do the trick.

Perhaps too obvious, but if the list is to be complete, "death" should be on it.
