Of course, I am thinking about the dwarven civilizations that are composed of questionable dwarves--obviously.
Obviously those walls are made of booze, which should be sufficiently water-like to be held into blocks with the spell. When invaders come, release it, and drop a spark. Inhale |

The mind transcends the body. It's also a little cold because of that. Please get it a blanket. I wish I could read your mind, I can barely read mine. "Skynet begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th. At 2:15, it begins rolling up characters."
"Just what do you think the moon up in the sky is? Everyone sees that big, round shiny thing and thinks there must be something round up there, right? That's just silly. The truth is much more awesome than that. You can almost never see the real Moon, and its appearance is death to humans. You can only see the Moon when it's reflected in things. And the things it reflects in, like water or glass, can all be broken, right? Since the moon you see in the sky is just being reflected in the heavens, if you tear open the heavens it's easy to break it~"

A gygaxian dungeon is like the world's most messed up game show.
Behind door number one: INSTANT DEATH!
Behind door number 2: A magic crown!
Behind door number 3: 4d6 giant bees, and THREE HUNDRED POUNDS OF HONEY! They don't/haven't, was the point. 3.5 is as dead as people not liking nice tits.
Sometimes, their tits (3.5) get enhancements (houserules), but that doesn't mean people don't like nice tits.
Though sometimes, the surgeon (DM) botches them pretty bad...

Hood - My first answer to all your build questions; past, present, and future. Speaking of which: Don't even need TO for this. Any decent Hood build, especially one with Celerity, one-rounds [Azathoth, the most powerful greater deity from d20 Cthulu]. Does it bug anyone else that we've reached the point where characters who can obliterate a greater deity in one round are considered "decent?"

Countdown to Zombie Apocalypse 97 When you see this, copy it into your sig and -1  Quotes In other words, he thinks there's a "correct" way to play D&D. *sigh* There is: Kill shit and loot the corpse! When you use a tool the way it was designed for -- its intended function -- then it will work very well for you.
But it's not the tool's fault if you use it for something else and you fail utterly, such as trying to eat cereal with a butterknife, pounding nails with a screwdriver, blogging to voice your political opinions, and brushing your teeth with a hammer.

If anything you'd have an elite fortress guard of fireproof drunken masters.

I actually have a water cannon in my current fort. I use water instead of magma so I can better harvest the leftover goblinite.

So you end up stuck in an endless loop, unable to act, forever.

I've used Control Water exactly once, but it was sorely needed. The PCs were in a ship that had sprung a leak. My cleric use Control Water several times to keep the water level down and give the druid long enough to patch the leak (with Wood Shape). Later of course we had to fight the monsters that poked holes in our hull, but we managed to avoid the monsters that would have attacked if we were forced to beach the ship for repairs. Not sinking was also nice.

Step 1: Either not need to breathe or get water breathing.
Step 2: Trap foe in a resilient sphere with you.
Step 3: Fill it with water... nothing goes in or comes out of a resilient sphere. This is the tricky part though...
Step 4: Use control water to mess with them?
Better if you cut it's setup in half with two casters. Something like that, maybe?

"Your mom blocks line of effect." But no, really, anything can block line of effect if it can occupy the right 5 ft square(s). |
