Q8) There any casting or pseudocasting systems, homebrew or otherwise, that use Strength or Dexterity as a primary ability?

Off the top of my head, there's this.

A9. It's effectively average 5 points of damage per round. Just get fast healing (evolved undead or dragon shaman aura).

Q10 Does anyone know of any obscure (or not) PrC with full arcane casting accessible to an Changeling(race) Changeling Rogue(class) 1/Sorcerer 1/Binder 1 between levels 6 to 8 that will give me Greater Spell Focus(illusion) or Spell Focus (illusion) between levels 3 to 6. I will take Spell Focus at level 6 if I can not get it earlier with a little PrC Magic. Loremaster is not an option as my Int is 16.

Necklace of Adaptation is your friend.

Q14: Murder of Crows is CR2, is this the proper CR for them?  I've never seen them in action and I know sometimes CRs can be grossly wrong.  Pg 87 of Tome of Magic.

Q15: Does anyone know of an old Core-only "Monk Without Monk" build that did pretty much all of what a straight Monk does (at least, all of the relevant parts) but didn't take a single level of it? I remember it had several levels of Assassin and Dragon Disciple (extra natural attacks to emulate unarmed strike and flurry, and the Assassin gave Dimension Door several times/day for Abundant Step).

q 17. when making a dex/wis focused character what are some suggested low LA races/templates. making a unarmored fighter type.

q 18. is it possible to make an ooze as a character? or something similiar?

Q 11 If your summon monster is defeated, and you're not there to witness it, can you tell if it's been sent back or not?

seems like that old tree in the woods quote lol.

im not quoting rules here but i would think that you would. a caster can dispell there spell at any time.. so iv always been under the impression that they can tell if the spell is still active.
.... but then again.... if you say have an alarm spell up, and someone detects and dispells that then you would not know its gone. hmm. my own logic is working against me here on both sides. lawl. sryy no good answer here

A6
Lunging Strike: Player's Handbook 2-->full-round attack grants +5' reach to 1 attack

A17
Whisper Gnomes are LA 0 and are the perfect DEX combatant. Bonus to DEX and CON, penalty to STR and CHA. Get Weapon Finesse and you're golden. In addtion, they have a total +9 to Hide checks and +5 to Move Silently checks. The kicker? The can cast silence one per day as a Spell-like ability, making them natural mage-killers. CHA will probably be your dumpstat, but if it is above 11, you get some other spell-likes.

A18
You can make any creature a PC. Just add its HD and LA to find starting level.
I might be wrong about that, but Savage Species should have everything you want! I refer you there.

[The_Mad_Linguist]

Mistling fey template gets you a living spell for eight hours a day (or all day with magic in the blood).  That's a pretty awesome ooze.

Q19) Can you jump while flying? If so, would you use your fly speed or your base land speed to modify it?

Q4 Anyone know a place where i can find out exactly what spells require line of sight, line of effect, both or neither?

Here.

An additional A17: Insectoid Creature from Savage Species. It gives you +4dex, +2wis, four arms (that you are unable to make attacks with, but you can still use them for extra hands on weapons (+.5STR per hand) IIRC), a climb speed, some natural armour, and inability to be flanked. Also, you become an aberration, for what it's worth (alter self).For +2LA it isn't terribly optimal, but I really like it. Why? I climb up stuff, hide, and ambush them with a pouncing battle jump using a 6-handed greatsword. So it's a personal thing ^_^
