Sounds interesting, but plants are a type of creature.

PHB, p306
Quote
creature type: One of several broad categories of creatures. The
creature types are aberration, animal, construct, dragon, elemental,
fey, giant, humanoid, magical beast, monstrous humanoid, ooze,
outsider, plant, undead, and vermin. (See the Monster Manual for full
descriptions.)

D&D 3.5 and Pathfinder / Re: Is there a list of 3.5 Dragon Magazine prestige classes?

It's an 8 years old torrent link, 8 years is like forty-eight aeons in internet torrent time.

4th edition came out in 2008 - 14 years ago. I doubt Dragon has added any 3.5 prestige classes in the last 8 years.

Most importantly, I have a deal with a genie that grants me a wish once a year in return for epic tales of my adventures she can share in her master's court.

This reminds me of a webcomic I just saw yesterday. A guy gets 3 wishes from a genie. His first wish is that the genie can't count :)

D&D 3.5 and Pathfinder / Re: Where are all the references to max GP cap for non-epic items in 3 5?
« on: February 14, 2022, 02:00:38 AM »
The 3.5 FAQ (date 6-30-2008) references the ELH

Quote
    Several armor and weapon special abilities have fixed
prices instead of a bonus equivalency. Do these abilities
count toward the maximum +10 bonus in enhancements?
    No.
    That said, if you’re using the guidelines for epic magic
items (page 123 in the EL), any fixed-price abilities should
count toward the 200,000-gp market-price “trigger” to
determine if an item is considered epic.

Dieties & Demigods hints at it on p28
Quote
Create Magic Items: A deity of rank 1 or higher can create
magic items related to its portfolio without any requisite item creation
feat, provided that the deity possesses all other prerequisites
for the item. The maximum item value a deity can create is a function
of its divine rank (see the table below). The item’s cost and creation
time remain unchanged, but the deity is free to undertake
any activity when not laboring on the item (see Creating Magic
Items in the DUNGEON MASTER’S Guide).
Divine Maximum
Rank Market Price
1–5 4,500 gp
6–10 30,000 gp
11–15 200,000 gp (any nonartifact)
16–20 No maximum (including artifact)

Weapons of Legacy
Quote
CONVERTING STANDARD MAGIC ITEMS TO LEGACY ITEMS
Using the standard item’s abilities as a guideline, it should
be fairly simple to map out a progression for legacy
abilities. The item’s base price determines what legacy
abilities the item has: If its price is 18,000 gp or less,
it has least abilities only; between 18,000 gp and 72,000
gp, it has least and lesser abilities; and between 72,000 gp
and 200,000 gp, it has least, lesser, and greater abilities.
If the standard item’s cost is more than 200,000 gp, use
the rules for epic legacy items starting on page 218.

D&D 3.5 and Pathfinder / Re: Sneak Attack & Magic Missile
« on: December 15, 2021, 01:37:01 AM »
Cool.  Magic missile doesn't require an attack roll, so it wouldn't get SA.
And Complete Arcane mentions that a spell that allows multiple attacks, only the 1st gets SA.

Thanks.  Not applying SA to spells makes everything simple.

D&D 3.5 and Pathfinder / Re: Do you lose your prestige class features when you no longer meet its requirement
« on: December 14, 2021, 12:25:23 AM »
RAW, I'd say yes, you lose your prestige class powers.

The whole cavestalker class seems to be about making your way easy through deep dark dungeons, so it seems natural you'd need darkvision or some way to see in the dark.  But I would ask the DM if it has to be "natural darkvision", or if a spell or magic item would be good enough.

Good luck!

D&D 3.5 and Pathfinder / Sneak Attack & Magic Missile
« on: December 13, 2021, 05:12:41 PM »
PC may soon get magic missile, CL3, which means 2 missiles.
He has 1d6 sneak attack.

Assume he wins initiative, so the target is flat-footed, and sneak attack applies.

1) Ami I correct in assuming SA applies to magic missile?

2) Would SA apply once total, or once per missile, or once per target?

TIA

D&D 3.5 and Pathfinder / Ghosts vs Magic
« on: December 10, 2021, 03:59:37 AM »
Does magic suffer the 50% miss chance when used against ghosts?

Eg, does a fireball automatically hit or does the miss chance apply?

What about spells that require a touch attack?

« on: December 06, 2021, 11:55:55 PM »
Medium damage is 1d6.  Longbow does 1d8.  So you get a +1 to hit and -1 damage (average).
Shortbow does 1d6 and has a shorter range, so compared to a shortbow, it's better.

D&D 3.5 and Pathfinder / Re: Undead and natural healing
« on: November 04, 2021, 01:06:06 AM »
Thanks.  I thought maybe skeletons and zombies wouldn't, but then I thought ghouls and ghasts and mummies probably would.  "Mindless" makes all the difference, and I didn't think of that.

D&D 3.5 and Pathfinder / Zombies and a 5 foot step
« on: November 03, 2021, 09:40:16 PM »
Zombies can only take standard actions.  A 5' step is something you do as part of a full attack, even if there's only 1 attack in that full attack.  Can a zombie take a 5' step and attack?  In particular, I'm thinking of a PC standing 10' away and whacking with a reach weapon.

Do undead benefit from natural healing?  Like does a 1HD skeleton regain 1hp overnight?

In the "Psionic Powers v1.03" file, Captnq lists "Expanded Psionic Powers (3.5)" as a source for several powers.  My google-fu reveals a handful of mentions, but no links to as actual book/webpage.  Does anyone know what this is?

To answer my own question, the very last Mind's Eye article included 2 zip files, containing the entire set of Mind's Eye articles.
The 1st zip file contained the 3.0 articles and is called "3.0 Psionics".
The 2nd zip file contained the 3.5 articles, and is called "Expanded Psionics"

The link to the last Mind's Eye article and the 2 zip files is  http://archive.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/psm/20041029a
