    It seems whilst I was editing in these two another question cropped up, thus they get their own post.

    Q392
    "Are you feeling it now Mister Krabs?"

    Q393
    "Young ones! Do you want to hear the legend of me? Do you want to hear a heroic tale?"

    Just as hobbits were renamed "halflings", I think Smurfs were renamed as Xvarts. :)

    But the rules for being choked (by any creature capable of such an attack) make no indication of color change. So creatures do not change colors when choked.

    A 394 Because its hit points are ultimately finite in number, while various ways to deal infinite damage exist, not to mention immense Epic Disintegration effects. The world is fragile because any of a number of beings could destroy it should they want to.

    "Young ones! Do you want to hear the legend of me? Do you want to hear a heroic tale?"
    A 392:
    Mr. Krabs appears to be a crab and therefore likely a vermin. As a vermin, he is mindless and not subject to mind-effecting effects or morale bonuses. He is not feeling it now.

    If Mr. Krabs does have an intelligence score, he would be aware if a magical effect came over him, unless the text of that magical effect states that he does not.

    A393:
    I do not want to cast Legend Lore.

    A391: Depends on the dragon's specific build, items, spell loadout, and the specific content of a "roofie". The answer may vary from "one" to "more than all of them". If we assume that a "roofie" is equivalent to the injested poison "Oil of taggit", and that the dragon in question has no active spells, items, or other effects, then the answer is "an average of 400" (the dragon must fail two saves, and failing that save requires a natural 1).

    Catching you outside would require a higher speed than you and a superior grapple roll. Barbarian class is a shoe-in.

    Cashing you outside, presuming you are not a check, might involve throwing money at you, just as stoning is throwing rocks. Thus, see improvised weapon rules. Considering that a money chunk has no listed cost, they can be manufactured for free; see crafting rules.

    A 324
    Yes. While you cannot see these colors, that is not my problem. The task is to paint with them. For this task I utilize Fabricate (spell or psionic power), and a craft (painting) check to create a portrait with the wind. Being unbound and a gas, this painting will last only the briefest of times before it is swept away, forever lost in form to the endless winds of the world. But I CAN paint with all the colors of the wind.

    Your apples are in your bag of holding, still ready to eat, because items are temporally preserved in bags of holding.

    A 397 (all parts)
    You will probably need an awakened tyger for the animal to have any comprehension at all of the question. The question is a DC15 Knowledge (Religion) check since it can be summarised as "In my religion, which deity is credited with making animals and all their key features?", which falls under the heading of "know common mythology and tenets". However, Knowledge (Religion) is not part of a tyger's standard skill set and the DC is higher than 10 (precluding "use untrained" for the skill) so in addition for the need for the tyger to be awakened it will be necessary for it to have picked up the skill by some unusual means - a Druid's animal companion could acquire the skill easily but, of course, being awakened it would no longer be an animal companion. Alternatively you could craft a headband of vast intellect +2 since quadrupeds have a headband slot, with the associated skill. Note that even with a 0 INT modifier once awakened (or +1 with the headband) it is not a given that the tyger will succeed at a DC 15 INT skill check (the skill check cannot be retried and hence the tyger cannot take 20); however, if said Druid is still on hand to use the aid another action, the tyger's chance of success improves considerably. Since tygers, like animals generally, are illiterate, it will not be possible to use a religious library to provide the poor animal with a circumstance bonus.

    The actual answer is left to the tyger once you have followed the above elementary procedure.

    The sun is a mysterious source of light and heat. It's existence can only be inferred through the day/night cycle: due to it's distance it is effectively hidden from mortal eyes.

    The best non epic researchers are believed to be able, under ideal circumstances, to hit a DC of around +300 (or possibly more) (+11 ability, +2 alertness, +8 racial, +3 hawk familiar, +2 alchemical, +23 ranks, +30 circumstance, competence, insight, morale, sacred, profane, and untyped, +16 for colossal object, take 20, rounding) with the skill to spot a collosal object, with range modifier of -1 per 40 feet (due to feat and spell). Thus a colossal object may be seen at a distance of just over 2 miles away. Sadly this is insufficient to directly observe the sun.

    1 = Disguise Self. Why? Because it doesn't require concentration and you don't run the risk of cutting them by turning your hands into sword blades.

    2 = Use Wish or at least Divination to get the answer.

    3 = Cast Alter Memory. DO NOT USE 'FRIENDS'. It's a trap and they'll hate you afterwards. Charm Person is also unreliable for a lasting relationship.

A giant of at least Large size can hurl rocks weighing 40 to 50 pounds each (Small objects) up to five range increments. The size of the range increment varies with the giant’s variety. A Huge giant can hurl rocks of 60 to 80 pounds (Medium objects).

    Invisibility effects change nothing about a creature/object except their interaction with light. Since light can go through invisible corporeal creatures and particles can't, light must be a wave.
