| 621. | DR131 | Dragon #131 | Can humanoid monsters use
wands and other magical devices? | | No, but witch doctor or shaman types (if
allowed for the humanoid race in question)
can do so; see page 40 of the DMG. |
| 622. | DR131 | Dragon #131 | Can humanoid monsters use
weapon specialization? | | No; weapon specialization is for the
fighter class only. I suppose, however,
that some very extraordinary and rare
humanoids might actually have fighter
training, and so could specialize. |
| 623. | DR131 | Dragon #131 | If a spell-caster eats obliviax containing
spell memories, can he exceed
his normal spell load? When a
character gains spells from the
moss, at what level are they cast?
Also, the Monster Manual II says
that failing a save vs. poison after
eating the moss will cause a character
to become very ill. What are the
game effects of this illness? | | Spell-casters can exceed their normal
memorized-spell maximums and even cast
spells from other classes, providing that
the save is successful. Any spells gained
are cast at the level of the character who
lost them to the moss, as decided by the
DM. The effects of the illness are up to the
DM; I recommend that the afflicted character
suffer the loss of 1 hp and one point
of constitution per turn. If the character
should reach zero hit points, he dies immediately;
if his constitution drops below
three, he becomes totally incapacitated
until the illness passes (see the Monster
Manual II, page 96). Constitution points
are regained at the rate of one point per
turn after the illness passes, but the damage
remains until cured or regained
through rest. |
| 624. | DR131 | Dragon #131 | Do hold or charm person spells
work on draconians from the
DRAGONLANCE® Adventures world
of Krynn? Do rangers get giant-class
damage bonuses against them? | | Draconians are not giant-classed monsters,
but they are “persons,” and the two
spells you mention do affect them. |
| 625. | DR131 | Dragon #131 | How many eggs do dragons lay in
a single clutch? How much time
passes between the laying of
clutches? | | This is not difficult to determine from
information given on page 30 of the Monster
Manual. Since any group of two or
more dragons is a mated pair with young,
the maximum number of eggs in a clutch
is the maximum number of dragons appearing,
minus two. Since most dragons
appear in groups of one to four, most
dragons lay one or two eggs. Faerie
dragons, which appear in groups of up to
six, lay up to four eggs. The minimum
number of eggs laid is one. If one assumes
that young dragons stay with their parents
at least until they reach the subadult stage
at 16 years, each clutch must be at least 16
years apart, since dragons would be found
in larger groups if they laid eggs while
rearing young. |
| 626. | DR131 | Dragon #131 | The mind flayer’s main attack is a
mind blast. What is this exactly?
How often can it be used? | | This is identical to the psionic attack
mode psionic blast. It is usable once per
melee round — as long as the user has
sufficient psionic strength. |
| 627. | DR131 | Dragon #131 | The DMG has a table giving the
range of hit points for zero-level
humans in various occupations. Is
there similar information somewhere
on zero-level demi-humans? | | There are no zero-level demi-humans
except for halflings; refer to the race
descriptions in the various monster tomes
for information on demi-humans with no
character abilities. |
| 628. | DR131 | Dragon #131 | The Monster Manual says that gold
dragons can polymorph themselves
without harm. Explain this. | | A gold dragon has effectively unlimited
use of polymorph self spells, and makes no
system shock survival rolls in using them. |
| 629. | DR131 | Dragon #131 | The duergar from the Monster
Manual II is listed with the psionic
ability molecular attraction. Is there
such an ability? | | No; this was a typo. The actual discipline
is molecular agitation. |
| 630. | DR132 | Dragon #132 | BATTLESYSTEM™: Can creatures such as elves or
treants charge in the woods? | | Only figures representing single creatures
or characters may charge in or into
the woods. |
