just say "you muse believe in the unicorn for it to heal you. if you hesitate, or doubt in it's power, the unicorn can tell. so make sure t- HARMONY HARMONY OH LOVE"
Or, you know, you just "summon" the unicorn.  The others have no reason to believe you did something else so they'll be affected fully.
I am constantly amazed by how many DM's ban Tomb of Battle.  The book doesn't even exist!

Only if they interact with it...

A gygaxian dungeon is like the world's most messed up game show.

Behind door number one: INSTANT DEATH!
Behind door number 2: A magic crown!
Behind door number 3: 4d6 giant bees, and THREE HUNDRED POUNDS OF HONEY!
They don't/haven't, was the point. 3.5 is as dead as people not liking nice tits.

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

Though sometimes, the surgeon (DM) botches them pretty bad...

I think having a SLA activated on you counts as 'interacting'.
It's all about vision and making reality conform to your vision. By dropping a fucking house on it.

Not if you never come into physical contact with it, imo, but that's something that the rules are quiet on: what counts as interaction.

They'll just think it is cure light wounds' will save for half. You don't need to tell them what caused the save.

In other words, he thinks there's a "correct" way to play D&D.  *sigh*
There is: Kill shit and loot the corpse!
When you use a tool the way it was designed for -- its intended function -- then it will work very well for you.

But it's not the tool's fault if you use it for something else and you fail utterly, such as trying to eat cereal with a butterknife, pounding nails with a screwdriver, blogging to voice your political opinions, and brushing your teeth with a hammer.

CLW has a range of "Touch", so this is a moot point here. They definitely interact with it. They of course would voluntarily fail their will save vs. CLW (like everyone always does), and if you didn't tell them that it was an illusion then yeah, they might not know which save they're voluntarily failing. But they definitely interact with the unicorn.

Q 43:
by RAW, you can't do that, so that means we get to stretch interpretations anyhow.

first, assume that the item was made by a druid with said feat. second, take the creature you wish to summon, and compare it's challenge rating to the summon nature's ally table.

pick the higher level one.

then, base cost off of a one-use item of that spell.  add greenbound summoning to item pre-req.

or you could do what the creator of that feat intended and add +2 to the spell level :shrug (for the purpose of price simplification, of course)

[spoiler]
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.

alright, I think we got off track with the #'s (go ahead and check the last page or 2)


I'm sure this has been covered before, but I can't find it:
Q54
Are there any feats for a non-dragon to increase the # of natural attacks per round?

Rapidstrike feat, draconomicon, is usable by more than just dragons.

Feats that give natural attacks, I would imagine. Dragon Tail is a 1st level-only feat for Dragonblood subtype and gives you a natural attack.  I know there are Aberrant and Illithid feats that give you natural attacks.  Minor Shapechange reserve feat gives claw attacks as an option too.
I am constantly amazed by how many DM's ban Tomb of Battle.  The book doesn't even exist!

A54: Rapidstrike works for aberrations as well, IIRC.  I don't know of a general feat for just any type, though.

I'm away from my books. What is this referring to?  Is there some mention in the feat that implies the above?

there is nothing in the books that refer to this, implied or otherwise.  I'm just taking it from the "horse's mouth" -- which is now linked at the bottom of my sig.  It seems reasonable, to the point that my group has happily incorporated it in to all of our games.
