I'm downloading episodes of Liddsville off Youtube for a friend.  Since he doesn't have internet access, I plan to write them to a DVD for him to play in his Blu-ray player.  I'd also like to include a menu so he can easily choose which episode to play.

I've never done this before.  Does anyone know of a free program for Windows 7 that would allow me to do it?

If it matters, I write data files to DVDs fairly often, and I vaguely remember doing one to play in a DVD player, but I've never wanted to add a menu.

Thanks.

WOTC has a Map-A-Week archive (located at http://archive.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/mwa/archiveall )

Just what are these?  Are they maps pulled out of adventures?  Is the text elsewhere?  Or are they just maps for inspiration and you have to add a plot and monsters yourself?

In MM1, dragons have blindsense 60 ft.
In MM2,  dragons have blindsight 30 x age category.

I'm guessing this is because the MM1 is 3.5 and the MM2 is 3.0.  But what's the difference between blindsense and blindsight?

Here's the descriptions from the manuals:

Blindsense (Ex): Dragons can pinpoint creatures within a distance of 60 feet. Opponents the dragon can’t actually see still have total concealment against the dragon.

Blindsight (Ex): A dragon can ascertain its surroundings by nonvisual means (mostly hearing and scent, but also by noticing vibration and other environmental clues). This ability enables it to discern objects and creatures within a range of 30 feet × the dragon’s age category. The dragon usually does not need to make Spot or Listen checks to notice creatures within range of its blindsight.

Looking for another WOTC web adventure.  It's called "Into the Darkness".  It seems to be on some lists of what WOTC offered, but not on others.  Can't find any trace of it on WOTC or the Wayback Machine.  But I did find

http://www.tsrinfo.net/~brenfrow/3e/intodark.htm

so I know it actually exists.  Anybody have it or know where I can get it?  My google-fu is failing me 

How did they compute the price for a staff of healing?

Staff of Healing, DMG, p244

cost = (caster level ) x (spell level) x 750gp / (number of charges)
Minimum caster level for a staff is 8th level.

Lesser Restoration = 8 x 2 x 750 = 12,000
Cure Serious Wounds = 8 x 3 x 750 = 18,000
Remove blindness/deafness = 8 x 3 x 750 / 2 = 9,000
Remove disease = 8 x 3 x 750 / 3 = 6,000

So doing the 100%, 75%, 50%, 50% thing

Lesser Restoration = 8 x 2 x 750 = 12,000 * 75% = 9,000
Cure Serious Wounds = 8 x 3 x 750 = 18,000
Remove blindness/deafness = 8 x 3 x 750 / 2 = 9,000 * 50% = 4,500
Remove disease = 8 x 3 x 750 / 3 = 6,000 * 50% = 3,000

total cost = 9,000 + 18,000 + 4,500 + 3,000 = 34,500gp
or actually 34,800gp since the physical masterwork staff itself costs 300gp

But book price = 27,750gp

Where did I go wrong?   

A dracohydra (Dragons of Faerun, p6) is a cross between a hydra and a dragon, and thus has multiple heads.

Dracohydras get all the normal attacks of a dragon,
except that each head gets its own bite attack, and all
attacks other than bite and breath weapon are made at –
1 to hit for each opponent it is attacking, because the
creature has trouble coordinating body attacks while its
heads are going separate ways.

Does this really mean that if all the heads attack the same target, all the other attacks are still at -1 penalty?  Or should it be at "-1 per add'l opponent"?

Incarnum Dragon (MOI, p173)

Breath Weapon (Su): An incarnum dragon’s breath weapon is a cone of resonating energy that separates incarnum from living matter and deals damage to creatures (but not to objects). Every creature within the area must make a Reflex save or be temporarily drained of essentia. This effect reduces the essentia pool of each target by a number of points equal to the dragon’s age category for 1 hour.  A successful Fortitude save halves both the damage dealt and the essentia drained. The save DC is Constitution-based.

Would the damage affect constructs?  Undead?

Also, I had assume it wouldn't harm anything that doesn't need to make FORT-based saving throws, but it would still drain essentia if somehow the creature had it (eg a vampire with incarnum classes).  But then I got to thinking about magic items that store essentia and if it should drain those as well.  Now I'm thinking the breath weapon wouldn't work to seperate constructs/undead from essentia, and the breath weapon would be totally useless against them.

MM2, p78

Planar Travel (Su): Gem dragons have the innate ability
to pass instantly between the Material Plane and the Inner
Planes, where they often make their homes.

I assume "instantly" is really a standard action but I could be wrong.

My druid has the Dragon Wildshape feat.

A fang dragon has sound imitation (Draconomicon, p160)

Sound Imitation (Ex): A fang dragon can mimic any
voice or sound it has heard, anytime it likes. Listeners must
succeed on a Will save (DC equal to that of the dragon’s
frightful presence) to detect the ruse.

Frightful presence DC (MM1, p69)

A potentially affected creature that succeeds on a
Will save (DC 10 + 1/2 dragon’s HD + dragon’s Cha modifier)
remains immune to that dragon’s frightful presence
for 24 hours.

What exactly do I use for the number of HD?  Suppose my PC is commoner3/druid-12, aka 15 HD, changes into a medium fang dragon with 9HD.  Do I use 9, 12, or 15?

Thanks.

Is there a prestige class that advances 2 divine casting classes?  Specifically Adept & Druid.  (Adept is the NPC class from the DMG)

Thanks.
