Q 719
Would Tatoos on a characters body be a valid target for an Animate Object spell?
If so, would it be possible to control them/have them take directions?
And would they still be attached to the body and thus something you can't remove to sell?"I Burn!"

A 717 follow up
Yes, spells without an attack roll will naturally receive no benefit from the attack bonus of Knowledge Devotion, but would still benefit from the feat's damage bonus.
A 719 No.
A tattoo is a change in the pigment of the skin, created by inserting ink. A part of a creature's body is not a valid target for a spell requiring an object.Last edited by Curmudgeon; 2013-02-13 at 10:34 AM.

Q 720 If I use weapon and torch (from dungeonscape) and have sneak attack damage, is the torch strike also eligible for sneak attack damage (so I would get to deal it twice)?

Q721
Does psion can take any power from psion/wilder power list (in spite of his specialization)? Or he can only take his discipline powers from psion/wilder list?Last edited by Kred; 2013-02-13 at 01:40 PM.

Yes, if the attack for the torch is still eligible for sneak attack, such as when you are flanking or remained hidden during the first attack.Last edited by Andezzar; 2013-02-13 at 12:27 PM.

Q719 follow-up Would psionic tattoos count as objects, since they are listed as items in the Expanded Psionics Handbook? OP, even if they aren't valid targets, by RAW you can make psionic tattoos move on your body or to another.

Yes, a psionic tattoo is an attended object. As you pointed out, unlike a physical tattoo it's transient rather than a part of the body.

Q722
Part 1: Would a creature 5 ft-stepping out of a grease covered square (per Grease spell) be forced to make the DC 10 Balance check?
Part 2: Would a creature trying to get up in a grease covered square be forced to make the Balance check?
Part 3: What about a creature attacking from said square?"She was indeed the proud daughter of a thousand jeddaks, every inch of her dear, precious little body; so small, so frail beside the towering warriors around her, but in her majesty dwarfing them into insignificance; she was the mightiest figure among them and I verily believe that they felt it.

A 722
Part 1. N/A. That isn't an available option. If you attempted to take a 5' step at half normal speed as required by the spell you would only move 2.5', and that means you would not leave your square.
Part 2. No. The Balance check is required if you "walk within or through" the affected area. Standing up isn't walking.
Part 3. No. Attacking also isn't walking.

A psion can take any power from the general psion/wilder power list, or one from their specific discipline.

Q723
Is there any sort of non-creature-focused Scrying ability or item? Basically something that allows the user to see somewhere far away, perhaps including a creature in that area, but hopefully something that can't be negated by a save.
The goal is to use it for a long range archer/sniper, who uses it to see their target (since several thousand feet of distance imposes a serious Spot penalty). So far the best I can think of is casting Chain of Eyes on a fast bird or something, but that's not ideal.

Re: Simple Q&A D&D 3.5 (by RAW) XXII
Q 725 Could a Wish spell be used to remove the level adjustment gained from a template?
Exp: Wizard Casts Wish, and Reduces his Half Dragon Fighter Cohorts LA to +0.
Q 726 Can a Wish Spell be used to gain extra Limbs not normal to a race template combination?
Exp: Wizard Casts Wish, and gives his Half Dragon half human Cohort a pair of functioning Wings (With a buffet attack.), and a tail (With a corresponding attack.) .
Q 727 If yes to both, can one casting do both at once or would that be too much for a single casting?"I Burn!"

Re: Simple Q&A D&D 3.5 (by RAW) XXII
A 725 No.
Removing a level adjustment is equivalent to gaining a level of experience. Every 4 levels that entails incrementing an ability score, plus all the class abilities for that level. Also, some prestige classes increase ability scores, such as the War Hulk (Miniatures Handbook): +2 STR/level. A single Wish score can increment an ability score, but that power has restrictions (limit of one increment for an ability ever, unless Wishes are cast back-to-back(-to-back)). As such, this is clearly a greater effect than any listed in the spell description.
A 726 Maybe.
Such things can be obtained in the form of grafts, which are non-magical after creation. If the total cost of these grafts is within the 25,000 gp limit of Wish, the answer is yes; otherwise, it's no. For example, Membranous Wings (Fiend Folio, page 211) would satisfy part of your intent, but the graft's cost of 50,000 gp puts it well outside what a single Wish can deliver.
A 727 N/A.

A 725 Addendum
This may be possible, as it is possible to wish for something more than the things listed inm the description. This however is at the iscretion of the DM and bad things might happen to the person who wishe something like that.
A 726/727 Addendum
As above.Last edited by Andezzar; 2013-02-14 at 01:03 AM.

Re: Simple Q&A D&D 3.5 (by RAW) XXII
Not explicitly, but note that LA Paydown is an option in Unearthed Arcana, so you might look at that avenue.

I think specific overrides general here, especially considering Grallion's Blessing isn't even in the PHB.

Q 728
The bleeding from the Wounding ability of Bat Swarms is not cumulative. A creature that has been damaged multiple times by a Bat Swarm still bleeds one hp per round.
The bleeding from the Infernal Wound ability of Bearded Devils is unclear. It seems that it is cumulative, because it hasn't been mentioned (referring to Bat Swarm). A creature that has been damaged seven times by the glaive of a Bearded Devil bleeds 14 per round.
Does this mean that if it's not specifically mentioned, wounds caused by wounding abilities are cumulative?

Re: Simple Q&A D&D 3.5 (by RAW) XXII
A729 No. WIthout RKV's Divine Impetus or some other ability or effect granting you more than one swift action a round, you cannot activate and use Travel Devotion in the same round because both require a swift action.

A 728
All damage stacks unless there's an explicit exception.
A 729 Maybe; ask your DM.Once per day as a swift action, you can activate this ability to move up to your speed as a swift action each round.
A 730 No.
You don't get any more skill points for having a bonus to Intelligence (except for inherent bonuses, which I believe the game has no mechanism to "lose"), and you don't lose any existing skill ranks for a reduction in Intelligence. Only future skill point gains could be affected.Last edited by Curmudgeon; 2013-02-14 at 10:56 AM.

A 731 partial
A Miracle spell can grant an inherent bonus to an ability score. (Either Wish or Miracle can be used to create a Tome or Manual.)
A 732 No.
Only ongoing spell effects can be dispelled (or suppressed in an Antimagic Field). An inherent bonus is the result of magic, but is not in itself magical.Last edited by Curmudgeon; 2013-02-14 at 11:26 AM.
