I was keen until you combined the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse with the Wild Hunt. They are not the same.

Hello! I would like a 3.5 Flame Atronach (Elder scrolls setting). I'm not very sure about the CR, ideally I would like at least a lesser version of it to be summonable so I suppose that restricts it a lot. But let's say CR 5.
It levitates a few feat over the ground. It is a fire elemental (fire immunity, cold weakness). It's main output of damage is a small firebolt. It deals damage to it's melee attackers aaand, it explodes on death.
It can probably also attack in melee with claws or something but that's it's last resort.


This is optional but I'm thinking of a melee variant (male atronachs). This one doesn't levitate but throws proper exploding fireballs. In close proximity it conjures fire weapons (shortly before hitting for example). It's Cr should be higher.

Hi, I like The School of Transmutation Wizard tradition in 5E D&D, but not Polymorph spells, which the Tradition kind of forces upon me when I reach 10th level. Could I ask for a variant 10th level feature for this wizard Tradition that does not involve Polymorph?

Thank you very much in advance!

[Debihuman]

R 1146 I need some ideas for a 3rd-level Aura for a 3.5e Paladin variant that focuses more on Law than Good.

C. 1146

You might want to look at variant Paladins and also Paladin archetypes from Pathfinder for inspiration, swapping out aura of good for aura of law like a justicar.

Ah! True. My apologies. It's for D&D 3.5.

Yes, this is a matter of contention among the fair folk in my campaign world. The previous time the Wild Hunt moved through the mortal planes, humans associated what was happening with the Four Horsemen and mixed the legends. There's a comparison (four miraculous horse-riding beings who are causing havoc for the mortals), but the actual Four Horsemen will be saved for a much later reveal. The harbingers of the Wild Hunt merely have a number of striking coincidental comparisons.

C 1146 - I said the 3rd-level Aura, like the core Paladin has Courage.

Does this work? Focused more on the Wild Hunt itself than the celebrations after so that might be a problem.

Wild Hunt Domain

Domain Power: You gain the Track feat as a bonus feat. Add Survival to your list of Cleric skills.

Domain Spells

1. Aspect of the Wolf^SpC
2. Regal Procession^SpC
3. Phantom Steed
4. Locate Creature
5. Commune with Nature
6. Heroes' Feast
7. Control Weather
8. Animal Shapes
9. Storm of Vengeance

Spoiler: Reasoning for spells

Aspect of the Wolf and Animal Shapes is there becuase in some versions I've heard the hounds and horses of the Hunt are shapeshifted fay/lost souls/captured people. Regal Procession lets you summon a bunch of horses and I dropped a level because it's not that good. Phantom Steed lets you get a horse that runs on fog and the sky, making it really the steed of the Hunt. Locate Creature helps you find your prey. Commune with Nature tells you about the terrain you're hunting in. Heroes' Feast was because of the celebration aspect since you mentioned it in particular. Control Weather and Storm of Vengeance is because most of the time I've seen the Wild Hunt it gets associated with storms.

Sorry I meant courage.

Oathmark could just as easily be swapped for aura of courage. http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/pres.../i-m/justiciar

H.1155
Masterwork outfit then add mage armor and permanency which will give you +4 bonus and costs more than a ring of protection. +32,000 gp for the +4 bonus, and then you add the cost for a masterwork outfit (varies) and the cost of the permanency spell. CL is 9 minimum for the permanency and it's a level 5 spell so 90,000 gp for the spell. It's stupid expensive. You are better off with a ring of protection as it would be cheaper. Note I didn't include the cost of the mage armor spell since that's assumed by the +4 bonus, a savings of 18,000 gp. Also note that this is marginally better armor since it is force and thus blocks incorporeal attacks.

C1156 Awesome! Thanks.

I request 3 creatures, well, 3 variants of one creature. The base creature is a little spider robot that I'd estimate is a size tiny? Think Skyrim spider bots with 4 legs. The two variants I'd like are one with a gun on top and one with a siren on top of that.

[Debihuman]

C.1159 Which edition do you want this for?

[manny2510]

R. 1160 I need a 1d100 table for diseases for a 5th-9th level party in the jungle, as well as a 1d100 table for exploration mishaps, and a 1d100 table for lucky events. Basically Oregon trail for 5e D&D. 1 should be low in significance, 100 should be highest. Mechanics not needed, just need something I can work with.

If you're in 3.5, try the Inventor's Hound Robot:

Hound Robot
Level: Rob 1
Invention Points: 4
Construction time: 1 hour 30 minutes
Slot: Chassis
Sustains: Mouth 1, Back 1

This robotic dog is too small to ride, but serves willingly and well. Sometimes, they are created in the forms of other animals, such as cats or even spiders or lizards.

Size/Type: Small construct.
Hit Dice: 1/2 d10 + 10 (12 hp)
Initiative: +1
Speed: 40 feet (8 squares)
Armor Class: 14 (+1 dex +2 natural +1 size) touch 12 flat-footed 13
Base Attack/Grapple: +0/-1
Attack: Claw +0 melee (1d2-1)
Full Attack: 2 claws +0 melee (1d2-1)
Space/Reach: 5 ft/5 ft
Special Attacks: None
Special Qualities: Construct Traits
Saves: For +0 Ref +1 Will -5
Abilities: Str 8 Dex 12 Con - Int - Wis 1 Cha 1

You may want to give it a Bite:

Bite
Level: Rob 1
Invention Points: 1
Construction time: 20 minutes
Slot: Mouth
Sustains: -
These teeth are strong enough to allow the creature to bite things in combat.

The creature gains a bite as appropriate for its size.

One of the possible additions is a siren:

Siren
Level: Rob 1
Invention Points: 1
Construction time: 5 minutes
Slot: Back 1
Sustains: -
This siren makes a loud noise when fired.

The robot can fire the siren to make a loud noise at a volume equivalent to about four hollering humans, and/or a series of light flashes equivalent to a bright but flickering fire, as a swift action. The robot can change whether the machine produces light, sound, neither or both as a swift action.

And you can cheat, and put a Blaster on the other one's back (even though it ought to take up a weapon slot):


Blaster
Level: Rob 1
Invention Points: 1
Construction time: 20 minutes
Slot: Weapon
Sustains: -
This part fires blasts of energy at enemies.

The blaster is a ranged piercing weapon that deals 1d4 damage and has a range increment of 20 feet. It never runs out of ammunition.

(Though it will only actually deal 1d3 damage when small - if you want to de-size it to tiny, you'll have to change it a bit more.)

Hey guys, I was just looking over my homebrewed classes for my campaign world and I discovered something. when looking at my Witch Doctor ( I have them all printed out ) I have ZERO abilities past level 10

I am in need of few thematically appropriate abilities. Im looking at maybe 13th, 16th, and a cool capstone at 20th.


Id like them to be level appropriate as well. So no like 1/day 2nd level spell at 14th level for example

There is already an arachnid robot. See here:
http://www.d20pfsrd.com/bestiary/mon...robot-arachnid.

Reduce size to Tiny if you want, though I don't really recommend it. Tiny creatures are just too weak because its claw attacks would be 1d2-1.

For the Small robot: Adding a Bite that does 1d2-1 points of damage probably has no effect on the CR. Adding the gun would increase CR to 1. This gives it the ability to shoot a bullet at 30 foot range. This would be the same as the type of firearm used (sized for a Small creature). Add siren (can't be stealthy w/siren). Siren would be like alarm spell as spell-like ability usable at least once a day and possibly 3 times a day if you want. It's not worth adding to CR.

I would be happy with a different sort of boost, or some other body modification in it's place, I just don't want to use Polymorph with my transmuter.

C1158 Not particularly well versed in 5e but would something like an ability that let you shift your body (as a minor action) to gain advantage on one of Strength (Athletics), Dexterity (Acrobatics), or Dexterity (Stealth) as long as you do not have a concentration spell active function?

C1158
I could see that happening, those are valuable skills when you need them. Though I'm not sure if it would need a little more variety. At that level, if it relies on concentration it should be worthy of limiting your concentration, right?
I do think it's on the right track, though.

Hex is missing from several levels as well. It should be Hex +2 at 4th level, Hex +3 at 8th level, Hex +4 at 12th level, etc. You should show everything in the chart.

What is a terror effect (from Fear spell)? If this is 5e, I'm not familiar with it.

C1161 A terror effect is rather simple to explain and a carry over from 2nd ed. To sum it up its a Fear that most creatures immune to fear effects still are affected by. Barring such as mindless undead and constructs and other various creatures specifically immune to terror effects.

I'd like an Archetype for Druids that let them be able to be an item crafter, with a bit of a nature taste to them. Replace whatever you feel is necessary, just keep the 1st-9th spells in tact.

[zylodrizzt]

R.1163 5th edition spell. I would like a spell similar to mage hand but lasts hours instead of a min. It should still be fairly low level. It should basically allow something that doesn't have any hands to be able to do anything that real hands do maybe with added benefits or allows something with hands do slightly more. I would prefer it stay 1st level.

[Xaotiq1]

R. 1164

I am seeking help with a "Word" domain. The granted power would add Truespeak as a class skill and some other ability like Skill Focus Truepeak, spend X turn attempts to gain +X to truepeak checks involving good or evil outsiders (based on whether you turn or rebuke undead), or maybe a free minor utterance; not sure there.

The spells don't need to involve truenaming, nor should they just be the various Power Word, X spells. That seems lazy to me, but I can't think of anything better. Any help??
