Something like this? I could also expand it to 10 levels if you like.

I'm looking for homebrew stuff to use a druid with a specialty to raven birds.

So useable stat's for ravens, giant ravens, dire ravens and other corvidae (as animal companions, nature allies and wildshape)

Other advice is appreciated

I'd like a feat, or magic item, which allows you to deliver touch spells using a whip.
Would this be okay?

H 708
Whip Spell (Metamagic)
A whip spell may be cast using the normal casting time or a standard action, whichever is greater, while simultaneously striking with a whip. This is a melee touch attack. The spell must be a touch spell or targeted spell (contains "Target:____" in its descriptor). The whip also deals normal damage (if any) which typically comes from its enchantments since whips do not harm most creatures. A whip spell uses up a spell slot one level higher than the spell’s actual level.

Channeling Whip
A channeling whip may be used to cast spells as if the wielder had the whip spell feat. This does not affect the level of the spell slot consumed by those spells.

Moderate evocation; CL 7th; Craft Magic Arms and Armor, creator must be a caster of at least 12th level; Price +2 bonus.

Note: I would make these +2 and +4, respectively, on a lethal damage weapon, as it's a good way to break action economy in half. Holy and merciful are a couple good enchantments if you plan on hitting both friend and foe. Even if you never use it offensively it's about the same as reach spell with minor limitations.

I was looking for a spell for a Pathfinder game, basically a weaker version of Fabricate (Reducing it to 3rd level) that can make things like cheap equipment like clothing, non-masterwork armour and weapons, miscellaneous non-magical items, etc. Something akin to Minor Creation, but Transmutation and instantaneous than a Conjuration with a duration.

Hey gang, I could use an Incarnum based ACF for the Ranger. If it can be done while strengthening the connection to one's companion and perhaps with a sky-based theme, I would be overjoyed.

Thanks.

H 712

Lesser Fabricate
Transmutation
Level: Sor/Wiz 3
Components: V, S, M
Casting Time: 10 minutes
Range: Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)
Target: Up to 10 lbs./level raw material; see text
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: No
You convert material of one sort into a product that is of the same material. Creatures or magic items cannot be created or transmuted by the lesser fabricate spell. The quality of items made by this spell is commensurate with the quality of material used as the basis for the new fabrication. You may only work with vegetable matter or base metals, not minerals or precious metals.

You must make an appropriate Craft check to fabricate articles requiring a high degree of craftsmanship (typically DC 15 or higher), and this spell cannot fabricate anything with a craft DC of 20 or higher (including masterwork items). Otherwise you may make any mundane item, even food, clothing or weapons.

Material Component
The raw material to be reformed: a fibrous plant for clothing; metal, wood (or a log) or an animal hide (or the whole dead animal) for weapons or armor. Etc. Plus a bit of jade dust worth 1/6 the price of the item to be made. If the materials are purchased they cost 1/3 the price of the item to be made, or 1/2 the price of the item if the cost of the jade dust is included.


Notes: Without conjuration (creation) I had to make the material component a bit more difficult to work with. And you'll have to put a rank or two in a couple craft skills if you want more complicated items, but don't forget you can take a 10 on your checks.

If anyone wanted to whip up a guath (MM1, baby beholder) swarm for me in the next couple of days, that'd be just dandy. High CR (though preferably not epic) is fine, but not required - I'm expecting the party to run away anyway. Swarms of even younger beholders (maybe with no rays at all?) would also be neat.

I want to introduce the return of an ancient race as the main antagonists in my campaign. Their speciel feature is the use of mechanics and steam, and I plan on using the Warforged as their basic soldiers while humans are specialists and leaders.

I want to introduce a mechanical "creature" which can challenge higher level characters. The creature should be some kind of machine which can be piloted - much similar to a Mech Warrior/Warstrider from Exalted with the usual steampunk armaments. I've been searching for ideas in the Iron Kingdoms books as well as a bit in Eberron but haven't found anything to my liking. Hence I now try to request this as a homebrew.

I want the Strider (I lack a better name) to be a multi-purpose machine. This is why I would like the chassis to be homebrewed so that armaments or tools can be added depending on this purpose. The chassis itself should be powerful enough to be a CR 8 - 10 encounter.

If possible then suggestions for armaments, armor platings, fuel, piloting requirements etc. is most welcome as an addition.

Can I ask for a name for this species? I can't think of anything.

I called them "mermaids" in this post, but really that doesn't fit at all. You know, being actual fish with scales.

I know it's long. The summary is that they are fish that form intelligent hiveminds when in large groups.

Schooling fish? A bit more description of their physical appearance would be useful in that, by the way. There's so much diversity among "fish" that it's been suggested they should be split into separate classes. Just saying "a type of fish" doesn't explain much...

Sorry, I'm not quite understanding you. I'm just hoping someone might come up with a name for a race of fish.

A description. They look something like tuna with multi-coloured glowy scales? With a 2 meter long extendable tongue... (looks like a long worm)

Emits clicks like a dolphin.

EDIT:
so... Proper description:

Yes, that's more like it. Otherwise they could've looked like anything from an eel to a manta ray to a shark.
I suggested "Schooling Fish", by the way, because of the whole "schools of fish" thing - and that's the distinguishing feature of them, that they school - and schooling as in "to teach, to gain knowledge" - because when they gather in school, they gain intelligence.
"School" looks really wrong when you spell it a lot.

I would like to see a Nature based half-breed template similar to the Half-Celestial/Half-Fiend.
Rather than being an extra-planar's child, or the offspring of a dryad/nymph/etc.

Something akin to the legendary Celtic Green Man as a race or template with innate Nature based abilities.

I hope this is specific enough.

I'd like to request a monster, essentially a big demonic goat, Size should preferably be huge, and the ability to perfom powerful charge attacks is a must. What exactly makes it so demonic is not that important, maybe supernatural/(a breath weapon, or something like that.

Preferably should be able to present a challenge to a party of three or four characters of ECL 17-19.

Also, I'd hope to have the monster by friday the 18th.

Thanks.

Requesting a homebrew of an old class from 2nd edition to 3.5 edition. The Arcanist Class from Netheril: Empire of Magic which used the basis of a spell point system but gained spells as a Cleric (however the spells are gained randomly) however with the ability to store the gained spells into a spellbook for later use or preparation. If i find more information to provide I will edit this and provide it.

A sort of lesser Illithid. I'd like most of the flavor intact, while minimizing the LA and RHD to make it more playable for a player.

Aim for an LA of +2 or 3 I suppose.

I'd like a D20 future Ithkul playable race from Master of Orion 3.

I thought it would need its symbiotic form and a sort of template to apply to which ever host it latches onto as they make races stronger faster and more resilient. A hefty charisma penalty due to their history also.

Thought taking over the host could be through grapple check dealing con damage and when con drops to zero the Ithkul is in control. Also levels would be like a genetic memory carried by the Ithkul and passed from host to host.

Any help would be appreciated as I have never created a race and may be somewhat bias in creating one.
