Q 059
Does the damage bonus from the "sanctify" line of feats of the Book of Exalted Deeds stack? For example, if a monk has taken Sanctify Ki Strike, Sanctify Martial Strike (for unarmed strikes) and Sanctify Natural Attack, will his fists gain +3 damage against evil creatures (and +3d4 against evil outsiders and undead)?
Q 060
A 2nd-level Fist of the Forest gains Untamed Strike. If her unarmed strikes are already considered magical from another source, they're treated as "lesser ghost touch weapon". Does it means that a Fist of the Forest turned incorporeal for whatever reason can attack corporeal creatures with this lesser ghost touch ability?
Q 061
An Intimidate check to demoralize an opponent is only possible if the foe is threatened in melee combat and can see you. Is the check still possible if the fact that the opponent is in a threatened square not obvious? For example, an unarmed character normally don't threaten adjacent square, unless he has Improved Unarmed Strike. Or a 3rd-level Warshaper has Morphic Reach, giving him a greater reach but which isn't obvious unless used. In both case, does an intimidation attempt stay doable?Last edited by St Fan; 2015-01-06 at 08:11 AM.

A 55 continued:
The Apostle of Peace, from Book of Exalted Deeds, also gets accelerated casting from a subset of the cleric list. Their spell list is much larger than that of any given Divine Crusader, but still far short of the cleric's.
Alternately, you could use Rainbow Servant to advance any fast-progression arcane class, and so end up with cleric casting that way.Time travels in divers paces with divers persons.

A) 3.e? I don't think there is... If your DM allows WotC's books that aren't D&D, you have the Dynamic Priest feat from Dragonlance's "Legend of the Twins" that gives you casting like the Favored Soul (Cha for max and bonus spells, Wis for DCs). There's also the 3rd Party book "Bastards and Bloodlines" which gives you any stat as casting stat with the Lost Tradition feat.
Like I said, none of these are D&D books, but these are, as far as I know, the only way for a Cleric to gain Cha casting.

Yes, they all are unnamed bonuses from different sources. It's a helluva investment for +3 to hit and +3d4 damage.
A 60
No the description tells you what the class feature does, nothing more, nothing less.
A 61
The ability only cares about whether the opponent is threatened by you or not. Whether that is obvious to him is irrelevant. So Morphic reach will extend the area where you can demoralie an opponent, Unarmed strikes do not threaten without a level of monk or IUS, so demoralize will not work.

The full characteristics of "lesser ghost touch" are listed in Untamed Strike:They deal full damage against incorporeal creatures 50% of the time and half damage the rest of the time.

Q62
If a creature is killed by having a number of negative levels equal to or greater than it's hit dice, how does this interact with being brought back from the dead? Does the creature still retain those negative levels, meaning they are unable to be returned to life? Are they immediately removed?
The particular example I'm looking into is a creature with a contingent psionic revivify. If it is killed by stacking negative levels, what happens when the revivify brings them back?World of Madius wiki - My personal campaign setting, including my homebrew Optional Gestalt/LA rules.

Q63
Can a Gelatinous Cube be grappled without being pulled inside it?
Q64
Given enough time and chain, could one tether a Gelatinous Cube to a structure so that it cannot move?
Q65
If an Iron Defender (ECS) were trapped in a Gelatinous Cube, would Grappling the Iron Defender be a means of retrieving it?
Q66
What about a shield? It cannot be grappled so could it be retrieved by merely reaching in and grabbing it? Perhaps by poking a stick through the Gelatinous Cube against the shield until the shield came out the other side?

A 063
Only if the creature wishing to grapple the Gelatinous Cube has Improved Grab, is larger than the Gelatinous Cube, and succeeds with the -20 penalty to not be considered grappled while holding the Cube. Otherwise grappling requires sharing spaces, which means the Cube's Engulf ability works automatically by covering the same space.
A 064 No.
Oozes are amorphous. You could trap one with impermeable walls, but it can move around/through chain attached to a structure. A Gelatinous Cube picks up carrion, creatures, and trash; other materials such as chains are ignored by the Ooze.
A 066
Reaching into a Gelatinous Cube means sharing its space, automatically triggering the Cube's Engulf ability. A Gelatinous Cube deals 20 points of acid damage per round of contact. With wood having hardness 5 and 10 HP per inch of thickness, that means a 3" diameter wooden stick engulfed in the Cube would be completely destroyed (1.5" dissolved from all sides) in a single round.

Per the SRD, Psionic Revivify functions like Raise Dead. Raise Dead does not provide any removal of negative levels and "A raised creature has a number of hit points equal to its current Hit Dice." I would say that the creature is revived and is immediately slain again...per the rules for Negative Levels.Hmm, seem to have left the last letter out of my name I wonder if I can change that somehow...

Re: Simple RAW Thread for 3.5: Score and Nine
Q067
Concerning the interaction between weapons like the Battering Axe or Dwarven Battlehammer (both from "Arms & Armor v3.5") and the racial Powerful Build ability:
Based on the description the Dwarven Battlehammer, given that it can only be wielded in one hand by Large creatures, and that the Powerful Build ability decidedly does not make the creature Large - does it still allow for a medium creature with Powerful Build to wield a *Large* Dwarven Battlehammer in two hands? (Providing the creature take the needed exotic feat to wield it without penalty)
Q068
Follow up:
If the medium creature with Powerful Build was a Goliath with the Mountain Rage ability from levels as a Goliath Barbarian - would the Goliath now be able to wield a Large Dwarven Battlehammer in one hand, as it now counts as a Large creature? Or, would the Mountain Raging Goliath be able to wield a Medium Dwarven Battlehammer in one hand?
Thank you in advance!

Yes, as per the description in the SRD, a Rod of Cancellation will destroy it, and a Gate spell also has a chance to destroy it.
From memory, I think there may be a couple o other non-core spells, items or affects that also affect the Sphere.My winning competition entries: Kinvig Arrumskor | The Great Pumpkinhead | Wynfrith d'Acker

You still need to make the saving throw. Someone apparently walking through a wall may be incorporeal (under the influence of a Ghostform spell, for example) or an illusory figment; you don't know that the wall is an Illusion.

Someone under the Ghostform spell shows signs of such a spell, signs that weren't mentioned in the question.

Re: Simple RAW Thread for 3.5: Score and Nine
Re: A 069Excepting a surface where tracks would be visible, I don't know of any signs that would show a difference between a creature and the same creature subject to Ghostform and abilities like Trackless Step would confound even that difference. Incorporeal creatures don't make involuntary noise, but neither does anyone proficient with Move Silently.

069 continued:
Someone walking into a wall might also be using Meld Into Stone or Passwall.
Really, the question of "absolute proof" that something is an illusion is a very tricky one in D&D. It's usually fairly easy to conclude that there's some sort of magic going on, but for any given effect, there are so many ways to achieve it that it's almost never possible to conclude that the magic must be an illusion.Time travels in divers paces with divers persons.

Re: Simple RAW Thread for 3.5: Score and Nine
Re: A 69
What's important isn't that it's a visible form, but that it's visible form like that of a manifesting ghost, which just so happens to be "made of transparent ectoplasm" as per this article
Since the Dmdork made no such mention, we can only assume it wasn't a creature such as that that passed through the wall.
Passwall doesn't work because there was no passage created. Meld into stone also doesn't work because the dictionary definition of melding is "to merge; blend", not "walk though" as Dmdork suggested
Indeed, which is why the answer to the question is "Ask your DM". There are way too many variables for the RAW to cover.

Re: Simple RAW Thread for 3.5: Score and Nine
No, we cannot assume that. While this is true for ghosts, it is not true for incorporeal creatures in general.
Unless the wall is transparent, you cannot necessarily see whether the creature merges with the stone or passes through it.

Q 073 (correct number)
If a Medium (or smaller) creature with the Half-Dragon template increases size to Large (or larger) through temporary means (magic, psionics), does it sprout wings for the duration of the effect?

As per the template, a Half-Dragon of Large+ size will have wings. The temporary effect used will determine if those wings are useful. For instance:Originally Posted by Righteous MightOriginally Posted by Expansion

A 73 Addendum
Also the benefits of a template are only added when the template is applied. So a smaller than large creature does not get wings. There is no mention that such a creature gets the potential for wings and will actually sprout them if and when its size increases to large.Last edited by Andezzar; 2015-01-09 at 07:59 AM.
