Clerics get two, i know, thanks (Cloistered gets three, so there). What i meant was also about extra domains from other classes, but i think i get it now (it should make sense).
AFAIK, the way it typically works out is...

If you take a PrC that grants access to a specific domain (Divine Oracle, Church Inquisitor, etc.), you gain that domain regardless of whether or not the Deity grants it.

If you take a PrC that lets you pick from a list of domains, you can pick any domain from that list regardless of whether or not the deity grants it.

If you take a PrC that lets you pick an additional domain with no other restrictions (Contemplative), that domain has to be one that you haven't already picked from your deity's list.  If you've picked all the domains offered by your deity, you've done some downright shitty character planning.  Re-train one of your previous domains (taken as a Cleric) into a Devotion feat.
Thanks. But why do you say that? what's shitty? I ask because; what you said about the devotion feat. One of the thins that got me in to this is a character low on feats that i was considering adding a domain for a devotion feat (then i started having fun with domain researching).

Enveloping Pit (MiC) is better than the personal hole by a wide margin.  It's MUCH deeper and it's cheaper too.  But you need to be evil.

Q93

If I have a skill that os a class skill and go into a PrC that does not have that skill am I stuck with the skill at the ranks before I enter the PrC or can I continue to improve the skill at the cost of two skill points per rank?  That being said if I have a skill that is cross class and I enter a PrC where the skill is a class skill may I increase the skill ranks to level plus three?

A93: If a skill is not a class skill for the class you are currently taking, then it costs 2 skill points per skill rank. However, if that skill was ever a class skill for you (whether through the current class or a previous one), then the maximum skill ranks are for a class skill (level +3).

Sometimes, their tits (3.5) get enhancements (houserules), but that doesn't mean people don't like nice tits.

A93: And to answer the other half of your question, if you've put cross-class ranks into a skill and then multiclass into a class that has it as a class skill, your current ranks stay the same, but your max rank limit increases to your HD +3 and (if your new class grants enough skill points) you can immediately raise that skill to its new max rank.

A89:  Races of Faerun has a small dwarf, but I think they might be +1 LA.

the Wild Dwarf is small with +0 LA

I'm rarely offended. I have no aptitude for humor, but can't seem to stop trying. I'm always happy for the time you take to help. thanks.

good :)   i am the same way

A94: The one you are looking for is from a Dragon Magazine and in the Dragon Compendium Vol 1. feats section.

A95: Page 36 "Crossbow Sight, Gnome"

look just one feat above that one -- "dead eye", not "deadeye shot. (also found in Dragon Compendium)

If you stop ignoring 289 pages telling what the intent is to stretch "more power" in your own god complexion of your interpretation trumps all to cover ability adjustments from aging then I will ignore a quarter page of rules that exist within a sidebar.
I think in this case the grammar is less important than whether the Str and Dex bonus provided to your created undead scales.

Q96: What is the market price modifier on Kaorti Resin weapons?  I couldn't find it in the website description.
I am constantly amazed by how many DM's ban Tomb of Battle.  The book doesn't even exist!

Q 98:  I know there's a list of Save or Sucks here, but is there a list of good/worthwhile buffs anywhere?  Specifically looking for things that are persistable, but just a general list of buffs by class list would be great.

We only know about kaorti resin from extrapolation, there is nothing to say it can be applied to weapons other than the Ribbon Daggers that the Kaorti use.

That said a Ribbon Dagger is 50gp. Kaorti resin weapons are exotic you should also note.
