 651DR134 Dragon #134 D&D: When druids fight for a level, does the loser drop to the next lower level?  Yes. The defeated druid loses a level, and he cannot challenge another druid until he has gained enough experience to regain the level. 
 652DR134 Dragon #134 D&D: Exactly how many druids are there at each level above 30?  Here are my (unofficial) suggestions:
Druid level Number of druids
318
32 6
33 5
34 3
35 2
36 1
 
 653DR134 Dragon #134 D&D: I find the fighter options rules in the Players Companion unclear and contradictory. The options section sets conditions for use of these options, but the striking section seems to indicate that anybody can use the fighter options!  Fighter options can be used when striking (as explained in the Players Companion, page 6), but only when the fighter in question qualifies for the option in the first place (as explained on page 18). 
 654DR134 Dragon #134 D&D: How many spells does a 1st-level magic-user or elf have in his book? When can he add new spells? Does adding spells cost anything?  A 1st-level magic-user or elf has a book of two spells (see the Basic Set Players Manual, page 38, and the Basic Set Dungeon Masters Rulebook, page 19). A magic-user or elf can add spells to his books each time he gains a level. The spell added to the book will be the same level as the spell gained on the spell progression chart. For example, a 2nd-level magic-user gains a new first-level spell for his book, since he has gained the ability to memorize an additional first-level spell; a 3rdlevel magic-user gains a second-level spell for his book, since he has gained the ability to memorize a second-level spell. A magic-user or elf can also add spells to his books when he finds scrolls or other magic-users? books; see the ?Sage Advice? for DRAGON® issue #129 for details. 
 655DR134 Dragon #134 D&D: Is it possible to sever a slain medusa's head and use it to turn opponents to stone?  The hero Perseus did exactly that in Greek mythology. I recommend that the head retain its power for not more than a day (and possibly less). Note that any treasure carried by a petrified character or creature also turns to stone and cannot be recovered until the victim is brought back. The DM might rule that the medusa's snakes will stay alive for a short time and will attack a character who tries to carry the head. 
 656DR134 Dragon #134 D&D: The rules say that if a victim of a medusa's gaze makes his Saving Throw vs. Turn to Stone, the medusa will petrify itself. Is this correct? If so, how is it possible? Are the snakes on a medusa's head poisonous?  The medusa's description in the Basic Set is missing text in the Basic Set Dungeon Masters Rulebook, page 34. When a victim makes a Saving Throw vs. Turn to Stone, there is no other effect. The only time a medusa can petrify herself is when she sees her reflection in a mirror. The medusa gets a Saving Throw vs. Turn to Stone against the reflected gaze. And a medusa's snakes are poisonous. 
 657DR134 Dragon #134 D&D: Why are normal bats more powerful than giant bats?  They are not; the statistics in the Basic Set Dungeon Masters Rulebook, page 25, were reversed. 
 658DR134 Dragon #134 D&D: What kind of special damage does a tiger beetle do?  None. The statistics for the tiger beetle and oil beetle were reversed in the Basic Set Dungeon Masters Rulebook, page 26. 
 659DR134 Dragon #134 D&D: How does wolfsbane affect lycanthropes?  Any lycanthrope struck by wolfsbane must make a Saving Throw vs. Poison or flee in fear. The wolfsbane can be used as a melee weapon or thrown at opponents. Lycanthropes driven away by wolfsbane will stay away unless pursued and attacked, or until the next moonrise. 
 660DR134 Dragon #134 D&D: Is there any way to restore the strength loss inflicted by shadows?  No, but it only lasts eight turns.
