I submit the following for EnWorld peer review: Wound Cursing: The damage this weapon deals doesn't heal naturally and resists healing spells. A creature attempting to cast a conjuration (healing) spell on a creature damaged by this weapon must succeed on a DC 16 caster level check, or the...

Ok, here's another spell I'd want my character to use. I think its comparable to Spiritual Weapon. Lantern of the North Tower Evocation [Light] Level: Clr 2 Components: V, S, DF Casting Time: 1 standard action Range: Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels). Effect: Floating lantern Duration: 10...

2 spells I recently came across got me thinking. Protection from Arrows Resilient Sphere With PfA, could this effect be attached to a vehicle to protect it and its occupants, or is a magic item/new spell required for that? With RS, this makes your arcane spellcaster invincible for minutes...

Okay, I was playing Fate, and found the Healing Charms in the game. (Healing Charms work like potions, but have 8 charges) I was inspired, and made this: Magic Potion Bottle (cure light wounds): This ornate glass bottle holds up to 10 doses of a healing potion. The bottle refills itself...

Can an unarmed strike successfully deliver a touch spell that requires a melee touch attack? My first instinct is YES, as an unarmed strike must overcome armor that a touch attack could deliver on contact. Examples: A Mnk1/Drd1 is enjoying a produce flame spell. He strikes an opponent with his...

OK, I've got this magic item and I need to price it's ultra-cool ability. When these gauntlets are worn with another item from the same set (circlet, mantle, boots, or belt) it gains the ability. Any creature reduced to 0 hit points by the gauntlets' flames (either from the flaming burst or...

1) Did that just say that illiterate creatures/characters can't trigger the runes? 2) How about placing explosive runes on playing cards. The cards can be left out on a table, pinned to a door, or just sticking out of a crack in the wall.

Okay, I was remembering the Phantom Menace, and I got kinda hooked on the Destroyer Droids. So I've statted them up. Then I thought, this is D&D, everything's got to be more dynamic than that podracing movie! So I made some changes that I figured would be interesting and help with that 'hard...

Ok, so I was trying to figure out how to price magical staffs and found page 287 of the DMG. There it explained that the magic ability with the highest Spell Level was priced at: (Spell level x CL x 750). The next highest level ability is priced at: ((Spell level x CL x 750)*0.75). Any...

Ok, I've been wanting to make these for a while and finally fleshed it out last night. They're boots for a guy whose devoted himself to killing drow after a squad made off with his family. This guy is a pyromaniac/mancer and favors fire magic, so his equipment will reflect this. It's also a part...

Ok, I just hit upon the idea for a character that specializes in magic attack and defense and threw this together. I'm looking for honest feedback, no matter how disheartening. I keep thinking I should give it some big ability at 10th level, but part of me says its probably overpowered as it...

Ok, I'm using a succubus who turned good, and was eventually rewarded with a blessed form. I'm trying to stat her up, and would like some help. Here's the original succubus: SUCCUBUS Medium Outsider (Chaotic, Extraplanar, Evil) Hit Dice: 6d8+6 (33 hp) Initiative: +1 Speed: 30 ft. (6...

Okay, the idea is for a construct that hunts down a kind of creature. So I present the Exterminator. They start of at 1 HD and advance by character class. I'll need help to balance the ability scores and set CR and LA. Exterminators are constructs forged to hunt down and kill a certain kind...

Ok, I've had this idea for a while and I finally hammered it out today. Magical writing is widespread; the following spells use or manipulate text or symbols. Arcane Mark, Explosive Runes, False Life spell requires the caster to trace sigils with alcohol as a material component, Glyph of...

I read Eragon and its sequel, Eldest; It got me to thinking about a language that prevents you from lying when you speak it. So I came up with an idea for an artifact, probably placed far to the north of the campaign world, called the Speaking Stone. I see it as a large polished sphere on a...

I've been getting some cruel magic item ideas and felt the need to share them. For example: Helm of Decapitation: This fine helm is sturdy and attractive. When placed on the head, however, its curse immediately takes effect (Fort DC 15 negates). On a failed save, the wearer is decapitated...
