Q 293 RAW, can you create a wall of stone in a room completely made out of adamantine?

I would say that is iffy. I could see it interpreted as it needing to be cast where there is stone or that if there happens to be stone that it will merge with it. The former making it more like wall of iron that can be tipped over.
Clerics and Druids are like the 4 and 2 in 42. Together they are the answer to the ultimate question in D&D.

Q294: My character has a Janni that follows him around, are Janni as completely useless as they look?

In my humble opinion, CO is haberdashery. Some say we're mad, but we can all agree we're hatters. Yes, we have potential to make very sophisticated hats, very fancy hats, be they dark or light. But the truth is that the color of the hat does not come from the group of us - our community doesn't directly produce hats. We simply give average head circumferences, list current fashion trends, and point out some shiny, obscure baubles to add to the latest hat line.

Q 289:

Maybe something like a Chaos Beast's http://www.d20srd.org/srd/monsters/chaosBeast.htm Corporeal Instability?

Also, Aboleths.

And I believe the spells that change a lycanthrope's form also have the [Polymorph] subtype, but I'm not certain.

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...
Best metaphor I have seen in a long time.  I give you much fu.

Seven for the Barbarian-lords in their halls of stone,

Ethereal jaunt for an entire hour is pretty nice.  Planeshift between astral, elemental, and material at will is nice as well.  And telepathy 100 feet qualifies for mindsight.

Other than tieflings, are there any other LA 0 or +1 races that have fire resistance?

A295:Fire Elves/Fire Hobgoblins.  If your DM is generous, other races can be extrapolated from that base.

Q 268: what are some good templates to add to a daelkyr half blood psion? Right now I have ten LA to work with.

Bump, and:
Ghost was suggested, but unfortunately won't work, as I need him corporeal, the psion part is egotist+tashalona(sp?) for melee focus.
[spoiler]
I see that you want to solve problems. Not problems like, "What is beauty?," because that would fall within the purview of your conundrums of 'philosophy'. You want to solve practical problems. F'r instance, how are you gonna stop some big, mean Mother Hubbard from tearing you a structurally superfluous new behind? The answer: Use a gun. And if that don't work? Use more gun.
And if that fails try this

There are also the Fireblood Dwarves in Dragon Magic.

Q296: Sanity check: do metamagic spells still count as lower level spells for the use of metamagic rods.  Specifically: can a reach spell Superior Resistance (normally level 6 but in an 8th level slot) be chained by a normal Metamagic Rod of Chaining?

Yes, because the spell level doesn't change (with exception of Heighten and Sanctum).

Q297: Can you do an unarmed strike sequence and a manufactured weapon attack sequence in the same round, or is that just natural weapons?
Smiting Imbeciles since 1985.

Sunic may be more abrasive than sandpaper coated in chainsaws (not that its a bad thing, he really does know what he's talking about), but just posting in this thread without warning and telling him he's an asshole which, if you knew his past experiences on WotC and Paizo is flat-out uncalled for. Never mind the insults (which are clearly 4Chan-level childish). You say people like Sunic are the bane of the internet? Try looking at your own post and telling me you are better than him.

Here's a fun fact: You aren't. By a few leagues.

just natural

You can, however, use two-weapon or multiweapon fighting to make a main-hand UAS sequence with a series of off-hand manufactured weapon attacks (and possibly the other way around as well, depending on how you interperet unarmed strikes never counting as off-hand weapons).

Ethereal jaunt for an entire hour is pretty nice.  Planeshift between astral, elemental, and material at will is nice as well.  And telepathy 100 feet qualifies for mindsight.

Q298: Does that mean the Sha'ir's ability to Planar Bind a Janni once per day as the spell is better than I thought?  Because it looks unbelievably awful from here.

Yes it is. Even if Janni suck if you bind enough of them you can make someone very unhappy. As Stalin said "Quantity has a quality all its own"

But is it really that important to have it as an ability rather than a spell?  You still pay for it and you can only get Janni.  You're already a spellcaster, why would you want this ability?
