Q 53: Is there a way for an undead dragonfire adept to circumvent the Constitution prerequisite on metabreath feats? Preferably one accessible with only a few feats expended, but I'm curious in general.
Ghost 1 Incarnate Construct Soulfused Dustform (base race).

There you go; undead with a con score.

Q59
Is one granted a Domain Spell Slot when he/she takes the IMPROVED SPELL CAPACITY [EPIC] feat, assuming he/she has domains (Before or After 9th level spells)?

Only for spell levels 1-9, I believe.

Cool thanks.

Q60

Q 57:  Is there a warlock invocation that grants sneak attack, sudden strike, or another way to do heaps of damage to paralyzed foes?  I'm thinking about trying to use snakeman830's Cannibal with the Gravetouched Ghoul template.
As flattered as I am (you can dump Tomb-Tainted if you're undead anyway), there sadly are none.  Best you can get is coup de grace with an Eldritch Blast
I am constantly amazed by how many DM's ban Tomb of Battle.  The book doesn't even exist!

Quotes:[spoiler]
By yes, she means no.
That explains so much about my life.

Why would you even do this? It hurts my eyes and looks like you ate your keyboard before suffering an attack of explosive diarrhea.

A60: Boost whatever stat is associated with the special attack. Look for where it says "this ability is X-based," where X = a stat. Note that X generally = Charisma.

Heh. I was actually looking for ways for a character who happens to be undead (the specific character is a brain in a jar) to circumvent the Con prereq, rather than "does any theoretical undead character exist which could get a Con score", but I suppose that's my fault for not being clear enough in the course of trying to keep the question simple.

I think there might be text somewhere that lets dracoliches use metabreath feats; you might want to try to find that and see if there's a loophole.

The Gnomish Quickrazor is in Races of Stone.  There's also a Quickblade Rapier found elsewhere, was that what you wanted?

Q56
Is there anywhere where one can find stories used by DM's in the past?  I have the overall storyline of my campaign set up, however I need some help filling in the world around this storyline with secondary and tertiary storylines and happenings in my particular incarnation of Faerun.

You could gradually gather those things if you made a new thread asking for them on GM Gameology or D&D Deliberations (the latter gets more traffic) and be patient.  Folks do tend to like sharing anecdotes of their experiences on both sides of the DM screen.

Q63: I am playing a psion/thrallherd that takes advantage of T_G's save game trick. One of the conditions of the save game trick is sending an utterly loyal minion (he recommends your psicrystal) into the future to check if you have died. I would like to keep my psicrystal around for feat leeching and share pain/vigor, and it is my understanding that thralls no longer feel loyal to you if you are dead. Is there a way to get a second psicrystal, or otherwise generate a sentient being that is loyal to you after death?

I can't find any sort of rule preventing me from taking psicrystal affinity twice and getting two...

Q 48 Is there a way for a whip to home in on someone when you're both surrounded by a fog cloud? Basically looking to negate any kind of concealment.

Q 64 Needing the name and source of a PrC. It requires any non-evil, and it has a taint count. I don't remember much about it other than once you take it, you live only for revenge and hunt down whoever took your loved one away. It's recommended for fallen paladins who've basically seen one too many things which have scarred them for life. You also gain some abilities that give you a gain to your saves and such, equal to your taint level. What is it?

Looking it over, I'm thinking that one too. I must have been mistake though because I thought it gave you divine spells, not arcane.
