Note that "any die" isn't limited to a d20.  Your DM rolls for weather?  Sorry, it's not sunny today.
:clap  :plotting Rolling for Random treasure?  :evillaugh
Reroll a random encounter?
A player once asked me if there was any way to make a Tarrasque more evil... 3 sessions later he was stoned with D20s as the PC led an exidus out of the path of a Dire Tarrasque of Legendary Wonder.

Heck, it isn't even limited to within the current game.

I'm reminded of a certain Magic card which a guy used in a tournament to eliminate a player in an entirely different game.

To be fair, that is an Un-card, and is not legal in any format.

What I heard was that was the incident that inspired the card.  Much like the "player loses next turn".

Q122:  I know if you pick a ACF another ACF cannot replace the same ability.  What I am wondering is if you pick Thug for the fighter and you get the skills bump and later you take Zhentarim ACF that gives you bluff and diplomacy do they clash since Thug gives you bluff also?

Q123: Does a Chameleon have any ability to ignore arcane spell failure chance from armor when using Arcane Focus?  The example NPC picture seems to imply it, as does the mention of Chameleons wearing armor under their robes, but I'm not actually seeing any armored spellcasting ability in the class.  Was this corrected in errata, maybe?

A 122 They wouldn't clash, you just get slightly less from Zhenterim due to not getting Bluff from it.


Q 124 What, and where is the bard feat that lets you use your highest preform skill as your preform for all your preform skills?

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.

Q125)  Besides Bloodstorm's blade level 4 ability Lightning ricochet.  Is there a way to make a throw weapon return instantly to your hand.  The returning and teleporting weapon abilities return the weapon to you in the next round, same thing for the weapon crystal of return.

A123:There was no Races of Destiny eratta, and Chameleons do suffer from arcane spell failure chance.  It would be reasonable to let them ignore it in light armor as a houserule, though.

Q 126 Is there any item that'll allow your natural weapons to count as cold iron? I see adamantine, silver, and magic, but nothing for cold iron.
I reject your reality, and substitute my own.

A 126: There's a spell that does it, so it can be made into an item.

There's a psionic power, and a psionic weapon enhancement, that both do it. Both are in the EPH, iirc.

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...

Q127) Until where does Share Spells extent?

If a wizard casts Wish at my character for, say, Inherent Bonuses, will the animal companion recieve it too?
What about Custom Continuous Effects Items? Let's say i get a Hood's Swift Haste continuous item, will the Animal Companion be hasted as well?

Ty for the answers.

Q128: If one takes Arcane Disciple would the spells take from the domain count as arcane or divine? If they count as divine can they be used to enter say Walker of the Wastes?

Q129: Are there any fast-progressing classes or PrC's that use/access the Druid's spell list?  In particular, I want to be able to get 9th level spells from it.

Chameleon, sorta. Doesn't get access to above 6ths without hackery, though.
