Balmuria Houserules

[Anastasia]

A collection of houserules. It's a big work in progress.

Post 1: This post. A table of contents.
Post 2: A summary of the important houserules you should know. This covers the ones that matter.
Post 3: The full houserules. Divided by category.
Post 4: Changelog. Mostly for my own reference, but it's a list of changes I've made and rules that have been added/dropped.

Major Houserules

A quick summary of the important rules to know. This just touches the highlights, read the posts after this for more. There's a lot of little changes that will only matter if you pursue a specific feat, spell or houserule. While it's not a bad idea to be familiar with them, the majority only impact highly specific things.

- Every 3.5 book is allowed except the Tome of Battle. Setting specific material that isn't Forgotten Realms is allowed, but run it by me first so we can make any adjustments that are needed. The Tome of Magic is in the same position, except it's because I've barely used it. Dragon magazine, Dungeon magazine and other 3rd party material is allowed on a case by case basis, as is homebrew. For the sake of Balmuria, Pathfinder material counts as 3rd party and given extra scrutiny.

- Aasimar and tieflings now have no level adjustment. Half orcs have ability score adjustments of Strength+2 and Charisma-2.

- The expanded alignment system in this post is used, especially the 5 point alignment system. Axiomatic, Vile, Exalted and Anarchic alignments are part of the world. Inicidentally, the feat categories with the same names require those alignments. Some of the exact details of alignment clarification aren't.

- Quick summary of major base class changes: Clerics channel energy instead of turning or rebuking undead(see that section below), druids use the shapeshift variant from the PHB2 instead of wild shape and don't lose their animal companion, monks gets full BAB and some other things, paladins now use Charisma for spellcasting and have other changes, rangers get full animal companion progression like a druid, sorcerers get bonus feats like a wizard, favored souls use Charisma for all of spellcasting and get channel energy like a cleric and healers are completely revised(add url here).

- All classes get an extra 4 skill points per level, with quadruple that at 1st level.

- Open lock is folded into disable device, diplomacy DCs are now set by DM fiat, spellcraft can ID magic items(DC 15 + item caster level), tumble now checks against the CMD of the creatures you're trying to tumble past, rather than a static DC.

- There's a lot of changes and tweaks to feats, so I'll only list the most common core feats that are changed. Acrobatic (and other +2/+2 skill booster feats) also grant one reroll per day of the skills they boost, augment summoning now has no prerequisite, dodge now gives a +1 dodge bonus to AC at all times (except flatfooted), various improved combat maneuver feats are adjusted for CMB/CMD, toughness now grants +1 hp per level like improved toughness and replaces that feat, weapon finesse now needs Dex 13 instead of BAB+1 and whirlwind attack's prereqs are now Int 13, Dex 13 and BAB+6. There's really no way to adequately summarize the various little changes to feats across 3.5, so that section below is worth reading.

- A bunch of spells have been banned, changed or adjusted to fit various campaign changes. Unfortunately, this also defies easy summary. There's no wholesale changes to how magic works, however. Also, magic/psionics transparency is on and should be assumed at all times, unless noted otherwise.

- Pathfinder's CMB and CMD is used, as this greatly streamlines combat maneuvers and how they work.

- Resurrection is difficult and uncertain. There is only one spell that raises the dead, Resurrection, as a cleric 6th level spell. Unfortunately, the Gods do not always grant it when asked and there is a chance the departed spirit will not return. There's also a chance they come back just a little different. See the resurrection section for details.

- The epic and divine rules are tweaked, adjusted and expanded. Should those come up, you'll want to refer to the sections on those. Fair warning.

[Anastasia]

These are the core, complete houserules, except for the epic and divine rules. They get their own posts to keep them separate. Anyway, as a note, when possible a houserule is sorted with the most appropriate section. For example the new turn undead rules are under cleric in class changes, though they certainly apply to paladins or another class that gets turning.

Books Allowed:

Spoiler: ShowHide

All 3.5 books are allowed with the following exceptions.

Banned

Tome of Battle. No arguments on this one, please.

Ask me first

Any Eberron material. I'm not familiar with Eberron, plus any material will need to be adapted for a non-Eberron campaign.
Tome of Magic. I'm seldom used that book so I need to review what you're doing first.
Other campaign settings besides FR or Eberron. I'll need to review them.
3.0 material. I'll review it on a case by case basis since there's potential rule problems. If there's a 3.5 revision of the same material, we'll use the 3.5 version unless there is a compelling reason otherwise.
3rd party material. As the quality of this stuff is all over the place, I want to review anything you're using for it.
Pathfinder. It's gone it its own direction and has its own balance. I've found little Pathfinder material I wish to convert over the years due to these changes in balance. As such, expect anything there to get extra scrutiny both to catch balance problems and to make sure it works for 3.5.
Homebrew. I'll review it before deciding. You can assume homebrew I post is fair game unless there's a clear and obvious reason otherwise.

Gestalt:

Spoiler: ShowHide

We use the gestalt rules, which are explained here. For BAB and save progressions, you choose one side of your gestalt. This side determines your saving throws and BAB. For example, a paladin 5//sorcerer 5 would have BAB+5, Fort+4, Ref+1 and Will+1 or BAB+2, Fort+1, Ref+1 and Will+4.  Once this choice is made, it can't be changed.

Almost all creatures gestalt, exceptions are listed below. Unremarkable creatures gestalt with NPC classes. In addition, certain monsters that have strong aspects of a base class, such as planetars (clerics), arcanoloths (sorcerers) and babau (rogue), tend to take that class the majority of the time.

Creatures with racial hit dice, especially those with more than one or two, tend to devote one side of the gestalt to those racial hit dice. For example, an advanced astral deva paladin would look like astral deva 20//paladin 20.  True dragons, who have their age and power tied to their hit dice, must take racial hit dice on one side of the gestalt.

What doesn't gestalt

1. Creatures of 2 Intelligence or lower. RAW they're too dumb to take class levels so they're out of luck. Sometimes I'll use up some of the unused gestalt for templates, but generally they're not entitled to anything.
2. Summoned monsters, such as by summon monster, an outsider's summoning ability or whatever else. It's not practical to stop and stat up a gestalt summoned monster so they're SOL. Plus adding gestalt to summons fundamentally alters the power of those abilities.
3. Familiars, animal companions, or any other creature class features. Adding gestalt to them over complicates things as well as inflates the value of this class features.
4. Creatures noted not to gestalt for whatever reason. One example is the homebrew tarrasque over in characters and monsters.

Exceptions to the previous

1. Creatures of 2 or less Intelligence that gain an Intelligence of 3 or higher. They don't instantly gain the new levels, but they'll develop them over time. This happens at a speed dictated by their new Intelligence score, with higher scores developing faster.
2. Planar bindings and the like may bind a gestalt creature if you're familiar with one and bind that one in particular. By default it won't if you're just grabbing a random creature. Do bear in mind that binding and irritating a gestalt creature is twice as deadly as irritating a non gestalt one.

Alignment:

Spoiler: ShowHide

We are using the variant rules as noted here: http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?p=7577205 regarding Exalted, Axiomatic, Vile and Anarchic alignments. I interpret them as this: Being the normal alignment is simply being that. A good person is a good person, but doesn't go out of their way to crusade for it. Likewise, a chaotic person is chaotic, but it isn't dominating to them. Being exalted alignment means you're a good person and you strive to live to the utmost. Being good is a serious part of your identity. Likewise, being anarchic in alignment means the same thing in regards to chaos. In short, it's the difference between being and embracing an alignment.

If you choose to be an extreme alignment, I'll have you write a short code of conduct so that we're on the same page. It distills what it means to your character and so that both myself and you know what's up. It also gives me the chance to say if something won't work and to adjust as needed.

Poison use is not an inherently evil act. It is a weapon and a tool, like a longsword, wand or dart. Like those, the ramifications of it come from how you choose to use it. You can feel free to disregard everything the BoED says about poison use. This does not free paladins and other classes who have a code of conduct about poison use, however.

Undead creation is an inherently evil act. The spells that create undead have the evil descriptor and all undead should be assumed to be of evil alignment. This includes mindless undead, who are automatically evil due to the foul energies that animate them. This is akin to how lemures are evil despite being mindless. Individual exceptions to the above can exist, like with risen fiends. Categorical exceptions, such as a type of undead who are not innately evil, are either converted to deathless or are evil after all. Talk to me if you have specific questions.

Classes:

Spoiler: ShowHide

-General notes, reminders and things that don't fit into one class-

Any class that requires an alignment component of law, chaos, good or evil can also have the more extreme version. As an example: A paladin can be Lawful Exalted with no penalty, nor is there any penalty to being 'only' a lawful good paladin. This is essentially the same thing as a paladin with exalted feats versus one who doesn't.

All classes gain an additional 4 skill points per level, with quadruple at 1st level.

All monk based PrCs that require any lawful now function as any non-chaotic instead, to match the changes to monk.

The lowest level to enter a PrC is 6.  This is to prevent qualifying for PrCs early due to gestalt. If a PrC is designed to be entered earlier I may allow it on a case by case basis. Cute tricks and charopping do not count as designed.

-Changes to existing classes-
[spoiler]Book of Exalted Deeds:[spoiler]

All: Damage reduction x/unholy from the BoED is treated as damage reduction x/evil.
Exalted Arcanist: Spell Knowledge may select sanctified spells as well as normal spells and exalted arcanist spells.
Exalted Arcanist: Replace the 5th level ability Sanctified Spells with another occurrence of Spell Knowledge and the following ability. Sanctified Endurance (Ex) At 5th level, the Exalted Arcanist reduces the ability score damage or drain from casting sanctified magic by 2, to a minimum of 1.

Book of Vile Darkness:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Diabolist: Remove the requirement of shriveling as a spell known.

Core:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Cleric: Turn Undead now works as the following:
You create a burst of positive energy centered on yourself with a thirty foot radius.  All undead creatures in the area take 1d6 points of damage, this damage rises by 1d6 at level 3 and every two additional cleric levels thereafter (3, 5, 7, ect). A successful Will save (DC 10 + 1/2 cleric level + Cha mod) halves the damage.  All living creatures in the area are healed the same amount (Will save for half, harmless).  You are not affected by your own turn attempts. Uses of turn undead per day are not changed. Evil clerics channel negative energy to harm the living and heal undead.
Druids: The Shapeshift variant in the PBH2 is used instead of wild shape. You do not lose your animal companion from this variant, despite what the PHB2 says. This ACF is used to nerf Wild Shape shenanigans, it's not fair to also gank animal companion with it.
Dwarven Defender: The prerequisite of being a dwarf is dropped.
Dwarven Defender: The prerequisite of being lawful is dropped.
Fighter: Fighters get spot and listen as class skills.
Half-Elf Paragon: The increased bonus to spot and search from Elven Vision also applies to listen checks. This keeps the racial bonuses even.
Monk: Monks may be any non-chaotic alignment.
Monk: Monks get good BAB growth.
Monk: Monks may multiclass freely and return to monk any time after multiclassing.
Monk: Perfect Self grants damage reduction 15/epic and adamantine. Also to be clear, Perfect Self changes your type to outsider with the native subtype.
Paladin: Paladins get knowledge: planes as a class skill.
Paladin: Smites of an alignment or ethics(good, chaos, law, evil) bypass the related damage reduction. This applies to other smites that qualify as well.
Paladin: Paladins use Charisma for spellcasting instead of Wisdom.
Paladin: Paladins may multiclass freely and return to paladin any time after multiclassing.
Ranger: Rangers get full animal companion progression instead of half.
Rogue: Rogues gain the penetrating strike ACF automatically(Dungeonscape) instead of trapsense. Trapsense is the ACF if you really want it. You probably don't.
Sorcerers: Sorcerers gain eschew materials as a bonus feat at 1st level. They gain a bonus metamagic feat at 5th level and every 5 levels thereafter.
Sorcerers&Wizards: When a familiar dies, it's owner must make a fortitude save (DC 10 + 1/2 hit dice + primary casting stat) or be nauseated for 1 round and sickened for 24 hours. A successful save negates the nausea and halves the duration of being sickened.

Champions of Valor:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Triadic Knight: Drop the knowledge: local requirements. Substitute Helm for Torm as a patron divinity and Initiate of Helm for Initiate of Torm in prerequisite feats.
Triadic Knight: Substitute Heart of Torm for Vigilance of Helm. Vigilance of Helm (Su): You are never-resting in your vigilance. You are now immune to sleep effects.

Complete Arcane:

Spoiler: ShowHide

War Mage: Warmages get good Fortitude save progression in place of poor progression.
War Mage: Warmage Edge's bonus to damage is equal to the Warmage's Intelligence modifier plus their Warmage level.

Complete Adventurer:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Ninja: Replace sudden strike with sneak attack.
Scout: Fast Movement advances by 10ft at level 19. This progression continues into epic at a rate of +10 feet every eight levels.
Vigilante: Despite casting as bards, vigilante spells do not always have to have a musical verbal component.
Vigilante: Smite the Guilty only requires that you see a crime committed, not that it need be in your home city.

Complete Champion:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Ordained Champion: Disregard the alignment components of Ordained Champion's prerequisites. Replace the deity requirements with having a patron that grants access to the War Domain.
Ordained Champion: Smite now grants a flat +4 bonus to hit rather than depending on your charisma modifier. You may smite once per day at 2nd level and twice per day at 4th level, rather than spending turning attempts to fuel smites. You use your Ordained Champion level to determine the extra damage of your smite, classes that also grant smiting stack with this. Paladin, clerics with the Destruction Domain and others all qualify.
Ordained Champion: Ordained Champion is now 4/5 levels of casting, with 1st level being the dead level.

Complete Divine:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Divine Crusader: Their caster level equals twice their class level, maximum of 20 at level 10. This does not effect spells known, but merely keeps their casting competitive. This fast advancement does not continue into epic, resuming a normal 1 CL per level pace.
Favored Soul: Favored Souls gain knowledge: religion and knowledge: planes as a class skill.
Favored Soul: Favored Souls use Charisma in all aspects of spellcasting, including calculating save DCs.
Favored Soul: Favored Souls gain channel energy at first level, as a normal cleric does. This advances as normal.
Pious Templar: Paladin and Pious Templar levels stack for paladin spellcasting instead of starting two growths of the same thing, as does a Blackguard/Pious Templar. If you do not use Paladin or Blackguard spellcasting you use the normal Pious Templar rules.
Pious Templar: Pious Templar's Mettle ability is (Ex) instead of (Su) to bring it in line with other incarnations of Mettle.
Rainbow Servant: Splits the difference between the text and table. Level 1 and 10 are dead levels for spellcasting.
Spirit Shaman: Spirit Shaman spellcasting now uses Wisdom for everything. It's no longer split between Wisdom and Charisma.
Spirit Shaman: The spirit subtype is removed. Spirits are now considered the following: All outsiders, all fey, all incorporeal undead and all elementals.
Spirit Shaman: Follow the Guide becomes a flat +2 bonus vs enchantment effects instead of a reroll.

Complete Warrior:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Invisible Blade: Drop the requirements of point blank shot and precise shot.
Kensai: Instead of XP costs, you spend 1/4th of the normal gold cost to enchant your signature weapon. A +1 weapon is 500 gold, for example.
Order of the Bow Initiate: Extended Precision becomes an (Ex) ability instead of a (Su) ability.
Master of the Unseen Hand: Now grants arcane casting progression at each level except first level. It's 4/5 casting class in total.
Master of the Unseen Hand: Add the following ability at 5th level: Improved Telekinetic Wielder (Ex): You now add bonuses from feats to combat maneuvers or attacks you make with telekinesis.
Master of the Unseen Hand: Add the following ability at 5th level: Telekinesis (Sp): You can use telekinesis at will as a spell like ability. Your caster level equals your hit dice.
Master Thrower: Add deflect arrows as a bonus feat at level 2. This allows snatch arrows at level 4 to work RAW. You don't have to meet the prerequisites of deflect arrows to get it.
Swashbuckler: Dodge bonus is always active. You need not choose a target. You lose this bonus when you're flatfooted or otherwise denied dexterity to AC.

Draconomicon:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Initiate of the Draconic Mysteries: Substitute the capstone with being able to use the spell Dragonshape (PHB2) 1/day as a spell like ability. The casting time remains one swift action, and the duration is 1 hour or until the form is dismissed as a swift action.

Dragon Compendium:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Monk of the Enabled Hand: Mind over hand grants a bonus to the next attack roll equal to your monk of the enabled hand class level, instead of attacking the target's touch AC.
Monk of the Enabled Hand: Empty hand now simply grants a +4 bonus to disarm attempts when you are unarmed.

Dragonlance: Age of Mortals:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Master Ambassador: Remove the requirement of non-chaotic.
Master Ambassador: Substitute a bonus feat for each instance of retinue. This bonus feat may be skill focus or any of the various +2/+2 skill boosting feats from the SRD or other sources.

Dragon Magazine:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Battleguard of Tempus: Drop the requirement of leadership.
Poisoner: Drop the requirement of any evil.

Dragon Magic:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Dragonfire Adept: Scales stacks with pre-existing natural armor instead of overlapping.

Dungeonscape:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Factotum: Cunning surge is banned. You can take one of the houseruled ACFs for it or a bonus feat if you prefer.
Factotum: Cunning brilliance allows you to select from any base class, to clarify from standard class. Prestige classes are off limits.
Factotum: Cunning brilliance cannot mimic the following abilities: Spellcasting, manifesting, marshal auras or other spell-esque subsystems. Bonus feats are likewise off the table.
Factotum: To compensate for the fact that I take an extremely strict view of cunning brilliance, the inspiration cost to activate an ability from it is reduced to 3.

Expanded Psionics Handbook:

Spoiler: ShowHide

War Mind: A psychic warrior entering War Mind can choose to continue his previous manifesting progression instead of starting a new one of the same thing. Disregard everything about power points per day, powers known and maximum power level. Non-psychic warriors can take the class as written.

Faiths and Pantheons:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Heartwarder: Charisma increase is an untyped bonus to Charisma. We don't use inherent bonuses.

Fiendish Codex 2:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Hellbreaker: The prerequisite of any chaotic becomes any non-lawful.

Frostburn:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Frost Mage: Frost Mage only progresses arcane casting.

Heroes of Battle:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Dread Commando: Dread Commando gains sneak attack instead of sudden strike.

Heroes of Horror:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Archivist: Archivist spellcasting is now completely Intelligence based, rather than Intelligence/Wisdom split.
Archivist: When determining the level of a spell for the sake of Archivist spellcasting, you use the most common source in the following priority: Cleric, druid, paladin, ranger, other. This is to prevent abusing niche sources that give spells at a lower than usual level.
Archivist: Archivists may gain divine spells from base classes only. Prestige classes are not eligible, nor are alternate class features and options, such as divine bard. Yes, Archivist can be abused. Don't.

Manual of the Planes:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Gatecrasher: Damage reduction 5/+1 becomes damage reduction 5/magic.
Planar Champion: Attack ethereal just allows you to attack ethereal creatures. It doesn't allow you to bypass damage reduction as a force effect.
Planar Champion: Ethereal jaunt's caster level equals your hit dice.
Planar Champion: Damage reduction 20/+1 becomes damage reduction 10/magic.

Miniatures Handbook:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Marshal: The Art of War minor aura grants a bonus to CMB instead of just four combat maneuvers. We use a few extra combat maneuvers, so expanding it to cover all of them makes sense.
Skullclan Hunter: Divine Strike allows sneak attack against undead and nothing else. The wording is a bit vague as written.
Skullclan Hunter: Divine Strike bypasses undead immunity to sneak attack. It does not bypass secondary means of stopping sneak attack, such as an undead creature wearing armor of heavy fortification.
War Hulk: War Hulk gains toughness as a bonus feat at level 8 and +3 bonus HP at levels 9 and 10.

Online:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Arcane Duelist: You cannot use dexterous attack and power attack on the same turn. This is to prevent free extra damage with those plus a two handed weapon.
Arcane Duelist: Flurry of Swords is a supernatural ability.
Psychic Rogue: Psicraft is a class skill.
Swiftblade: Sudden Casting causes haste to be treated as a swift action, not a free action. This brings it into line with how Quicken Spell works.
Swiftblade: Remove Perpetual Options. Instead you gain another +10 bonus to your movement speed. In addition, level 10 of swiftblade now grants casting progression.

Planar Handbook:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Ardent Dilettante: Remove the requirement of having died and come back for level 10 Ardent Dilettante.
Ardent Dilettante: Replace the previous benefit from death has no mysteries and replace it with a 25% bonus to resurrection chance rolls. In addition, the Ardent Dilettante ignores the penalty to resurrection chance odds for being raised more than once.

Player's Guide to Faerun:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Celebrant of Sharess: To clarify, flirtation works exactly like bardic music. If you have bard levels or something else that grants bardic music, these stack.

Player's Handbook 2:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Knight: Knights gain a good fortitude save in addition to their good will save.
Knight: The bonuses from shield block is a flat bonus to your shield bonus to AC. It's always in effect. You still have to use a shield to gain a benefit from it.
Knight: In addition to the listed choices, a knight may select any fighter bonus feat for his bonus feats. You must still meet all the prerequisites of a feat to select it.

Races of Destiny:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Chameleon: The prerequisite of Able Learner can also be satisfied with Jack of All Trades.
Chameleon: When determining the level of a spell for the sake of Chameleon spellcasting, you use the most common source, in the following priority: Sorc/wiz, cleric, druid, bard, paladin, ranger, other. This is to prevent abuses via hunting splatbooks for underleveled spells, such as from trapsmith.
Chameleon: Chameleon's floating bonus feat cannot be used as a prerequisite to qualifying for anything. Example: You cannot select power attack with your floating feat and then use that to qualify for favored power attack with a normal feat, or for a PrC that requires power attack as a prerequisite.

Races of the Wild:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Champion of Corellon Larethian: Remove the prerequisite of mounted combat.
Champion of Corellon Larethian: The bonus feat selected may be any fighter bonus feat.
Champion of Corellon Larethian: The bonus damage from Elegant Strike applies to all targets, not just sneak attack/critical hit vulnerable ones.

Savage Species:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Survivor: The requirement of highest base save bonus being lower than your level is dropped. Add toughness and endurance as requirements to enter the class.
Survivor: Survivor now grants poor base attack bonus.

Unapproachable East:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Shou Disciple: The bonus to your dodge feat is now simply a dodge bonus to armor class that is active at all times, except when you are flatfooted or otherwise denied your dex bonus.

[/spoiler]

[/spoiler]

Skills:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Reminder: All classes gain +4 skill points per level.

Diplomacy: All diplomacy checks are given a DC by the DM's discretion. The attitudes table in the SRD is generally not used.
Knowledge: Minerals, gems and stones can be identified with a Knowledge: Dungeoneering check. This doesn't allow you an idea of the value (Appraise covers that), but allows for basic identification.
Open Lock: Open Lock is folded into Disable Device.
Spellcraft: A new function is added to spellcraft:

Identify Properties of Magic Item: DC 15 + item's caster level. (DC varies for artifacts)

Attempting to ascertain the properties of a magic item takes 3 rounds per item to be identified and you must be able to thoroughly examine the object. Artifacts may be identified in this manner, but the DC is higher. The exact DC varies from artifact to artifact.

Tumble: The DC to avoid an AoO while tumbling is now the CMD of the threatening creature.

Feats:

Spoiler: ShowHide

All feats listed here are used in place of any relevant SRD feats or versions from other sources.

-General notes-

Exalted, Vile, Axiomatic and Anarchic feats require you to have the matching alignment to take. This is no practical change, anyone aligned enough to take an alignment feat should be that alignment anyway. Other feats tied to alignment do not require this. You don't need to be Axiomatic to take Law Devotion, for example.

Banned Feats: [spoiler]

I don't always ban feats, but when I do, I prefer to post them here.

Craft Contingent Spell (Just no.)
Divine Metamagic (Not 100% banned, but subject to automatic DM review and I seldom allow it. DMM-Persist is auto rejected.)
Faerie Mysteries Initiate (No you can't have your Int mod to HP.)
Leadership (Hideously broken and abusable mess. You can't use feats to buy NPC helpers.)
Troll-Blooded (You can't gain regeneration by a feat.)
Wild Cohort (See Leadership.)
Miser with Magic (Just not dealing with it.)

New Feats:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Airy Shapeshift [Shapeshift]
Prerequisite: Base fortitude save+6, shapeshift ability.
Benefit: Your shapeshift forms take on a airy appearance, as if partially made of wind. This grants all of your shapeshift forms the air subtype, granting them a fly speed of 30ft (perfect). In addition, your gain the benefit of the Weapon Finesse feat while shapeshifted.
Special: You do not gain the benefits of this feat if you shift into a form composed of earth, such as the earth elemental form of the elemental fury form.
Special: If you select this feat, you may not select the Earthen Shapeshift feat.

Angelic Champion [Exalted]
Benefit: Once per day, while performing an act of good, you may call upon your angelic patron to gain a +1 luck bonus on any one roll or check.
Special: Once you take this feat, you may not take it again, nor can you take either the Servant of the Heavens feat or the Knight of Stars feat. Your allegiance is only yours to give once.
Special: This feat replaces Favored of the Companions, as guardinals do not exist in this cosmology.

Angelic Lore [Exalted]
Prerequisite: Skill Focus (Knowledge: Planes)
Benefit: You gain a +5 bonus on knowledge checks about evil outsiders and undead, as well as the lower planes. This bonus also applies to bardic knowledge, lore and similar class features.

Apt Learner [General]
Benefit: Choose two skills. These skills are always considered class skills for you.

Arch-Angel's Mystery [Exalted] Second relevant link
Prerequisite: Knowledge (Planes) 15 ranks, Words of Creation, int 17, cha 17
Benefit: You study the secret lessons of the 77+7 arch-angels of Elysium and learn how to hide yourself from detection. This allows you two ways to use the Words of Creation, ways pioneered by them as they sought to escape the notice of all.

Obscurity: You can hide yourself from the detections of others, creating an effect that shields you while allowing the glories of others to be humbly seen instead. This is identical to a nondetection spell with a caster level equal to your hit dice. Using the Words of Creation in this way deals 14d4 points of nonlethal damage to you.
Invisibility: You can create a cloak that turns aside the eyes of the wicked. This is equivalent to an invisibility spell, except that it only affects evil creatures. Using the Words of Creation in this way deals 7d4 points of nonlethal damage to you.

Axiomatic Smite [Axiomatic]
Prerequisite: Smite Evil.
Benefit: Your smite evil class ability also works against chaotic creatures. Additionally, you may use your smite ability one more time per day. If you accidentally smite a creature that is not chaotic or evil, the smite has no effect but is still used up for the day. Smite evil and smite chaos are supernatural abilities.
Special: Yes, this is Cuthbert's Smite from Dragon Compendium. It's reflavored for the campaign and I added it to this since it's fitting.

Bard's Rally [Bardic]
Prerequisite: Perform 12 ranks, Bardic Music
Benefit: As an immediate action, you can expend two daily uses of your bardic music ability to grant all allies within 30ft temporary hit points equal to your ranks in Perform. These temporary hit points lasts for 1 hour.

Blistering Fires [Shapeshift]
Prerequisite: Burning Shapeshift
Benefit: Foes set on fire by your natural attacks find themselves so pained that they cannot effectively defend themselves. As long as they are on fire, they suffer a -4 penalty to armor class and saving throws.

Breath of the Mist [General]
Prerequisite: Shield of Mist
Benefit: You can gather up the mists around you and exhale them in a cloud. Three times per day you may use Obscuring Mist as a spell-like ability, with a caster level equal to your hit dice.

Burning Shapeshift [Shapeshift]
Prerequisite: Base fortitude save+6, shapeshift ability
Benefit: Your shapeshift forms take on a burning appearance, as if partially made of fire. This grants all of your shapeshift forms the fire subtype, granting them immunity to fire and vulnerability to cold. In addition, your natural attacks set opponents on fire unless they pass a reflex save (DC 10 + 1/2 hit dice + con modifier). This follows all the rules for being set on fire, except that the reflex save DC to extinguish the fire is the same DC as above.
Special: You do not gain the benefits of this feat if you shift into a form with immunity to cold or composed of ice or water, such as the water elemental form of the elemental fury form.
Special: If you select this feat, you may not select the Frozen Shapeshift feat.

Charming the Blade [General]
Prerequisite: Fey type.

Mark of Cania: You are treated as being trained in all knowledge skills, even if you do not possess ranks in them. Once per week you can call on this lore to gain a +8 bonus to one knowledge check. This replaces the written benefit of the feat.
Mark of Maladomini: You gain a +1 insight bonus to attack rolls, caster level checks and initiative checks versus any creature that is not native to Baator. This benefit also applies to creatures that serve Mephistopheles. There only needs to be one qualifying creature in a combat to gain the bonus to initiative.  This replaces the written benefit of the feat. 
Mark of Mabolge: You can channel the dark, seductive power of Glasya once per day. This grants you a +4 profane bonus to Charisma for 10 minutes.  This replaces the written benefit of the feat.
Mark of Minauros: You gain a +30 enhancement bonus to your speed when you use the withdraw action. If you can cast greater teleport as a spell-like ability, you do not provoke attacks of opportunity for casting it. This replaces the written benefit of the feat.
Mark of Nessus: Attacks that do not specifically target you, such as a cone of cold or fireball, can still affect you.
Mark of Phlegethos: You can use wave of pain once per day as a spell-like ability. This replaces the written benefit of the feat.

Frostburn:

Faith in the Frost: Converts your turning damage to cold damage instead of positive or negative energy. Creatures with the cold subtype heal from from this. This replaces the printed benefits of the feat.

Heroes of Horror

Haunting Melody: This is now a bardic feat. Using it is a standard action. It's a stand alone fear effect rather than being a rider to anything else.

Font of Inspiration: Now grants two points of inspiration, but you can only take it once.

Player's Handbook 2:

Combat Defense: When you're in combat focus, you gain an additional +1 dodge bonus to armor class. This rises to +2 if you have three or more combat form feats. This makes it fit with the changes to the dodge feat.
Driving Attack: Change the prerequisites to melee weapon mastery (piercing) and BAB+14, remove the others. The bonus to your bull rush attack is equal to 1/4th of the damage you did. It's also a fighter bonus feat.
Slashing Flurry: Is a fighter bonus feat.

Savage Species:

Pain Mastery: Capped at +12 bonus to Strength. It can't go any higher. This is to prevent it from getting out of hand in certain extreme cases in epic.

Magic Items:

Spoiler: ShowHide

-Book of Exalted Deeds-

Starmantle Cloak: Banned. Banned so hard that this listing is completely unneeded and gratuitous. Hideously broken.

-Core-

Item Creation Rules: Slotless items cost 2.5x the normal price of an item. This is a raise from 2x the normal price.
Item Creation Rules: The epic rules for magical items are used with revisions. Epic magic items no longer have a 10x price multiplier in most cases. Remember that the cap for a non-epic magical item is 200,000 gold. Any item that costs more than that is an epic magic item by default.
Magic Weapons: Sun Blades do triple (instead of double) damage on a critical hit to undead or negative energy creatures, even if they are normally immune to critical hits. Confirm the crit as normal. No other effects from the critical hit happen, nor can a Sun Blade sneak attack undead.
Wondrous Items: The various tomes of stat boosting can't be purchased.
Magic Armor: The following values are used for the various elemental resistance armors.

Resist 10 goes from 18000 gold to 12000 gold.
Resist 20 goes from 42000 gold to 28000 gold.
Resist 30 goes from 66000 gold to 44000 gold.

Defending: Now works as follows.

Defending

A defending weapon allows the wielder to transfer some or all of the sword's enhancement bonus to his AC as a bonus that stacks with all others. As a free action, the wielder chooses how to allocate the weapon's enhancement bonus at the start of his turn before attacking with the weapon, and the effect to AC lasts until his next turn. The wielder must make an attack with the enchanted weapon in a given round to gain the benefit of defending.

Moderate abjuration; CL 8th; Craft Magic Arms and Armor, shield or shield of faith; Price +1 bonus.

Rings: Ring of Evasion is banned.
Rods: Metamagic Rods of quicken are banned.

-Magic Item Compendium-

The Magic Item Compendium uses a different pricing scheme for magic items than the SRD standard. As such many items are under priced, I may impose price increases depending on the item. Ask me about MIC items before you buy them. Most markups are about 150% to 200% of the MIC price.

-New Magic Item Properties-

Coordination

This special enchantment can be added to any article of clothing. On touching the enchanted item to a garment, the touched item will alter its style and coloration to complement the touched item. The item's overall dimensions remain the same. The affected item remains in this new style until the command word is said again.

Moderate transmutation; CL 5th; Craft Wondrous Item, disguise self; Price 500 gold.

Force Generation [Synergy]
Price: +1 bonus
Property: Projectile weapon
Caster Level: 12th
Synergy Prerequisite: Force

Your bow now gathers raw force out of everything around you, creating arrows to fire. You now no long need to supply arrows, each one is created when you pull the bow back. These arrows function as per normal for arrows fired from this type of weapon.

Equipment and Materials:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Equipment:

-Weapons-

Chakrams are exotic ranged weapons. They deal 1d8 damage, 18-20 crit range, 30ft range increment. 25 gp.
Greathammers are martial melee weapons. They deal 1d12 damage, x3 crit rate and grant a +2 bonus to sunder attempts. 50 gp.
Fullhammers are exotic melee weapons. They deal 2d10 damage, x4 crit rate and grant a +2 bonus to sunder attempts. A fullhammer must be wielded with two hands. 150 gp.

-Poisons-

Afflictions and ravages are poisons and treated as such. They can affect any type of creature, not only evil ones. Due to the purification and holy energies invested into these poisons, they ignore the poison immunity of evil outsiders. Disregard the information about dealing extra damage equal to a ravaged creature's Charisma modifier and extra damage based on type or being a cleric of an evil deity. This supersedes the information in the BoED.

Materials:

-New Materials-

Moonlight Mithral: In addition to the normal qualities of mithral, properly crafted moonlight mithral bestows special benefits. Weapons made of moonlight mithral gain the holy special quality while armors gain the angelic special quality(BoED). The abilities given by Moonlight Mithral are free, not counting towards the total enchantment price of the equipment. Moonlight Mithral is rare and sacred to the church of Selune, it cannot be purchased. It must be found or given as a gift.

Cauldron Steel: This rare iron is forged in The Cauldron, heated by elemental fire, cooled with elemental water, shaped with elemental air and hardened with the spirit of elemental earth. Weapons and armor made of cauldron steel are 25% heavier than normal steel, but have a hardness 5 points higher than steel. Further, weapons made of this material count as cold iron and retain some elemental power. They deal one point each of acid, cold, electricity and fire damage on each hit. Armor made of cauldron steel grans resistance to acid, cold, electricity and fire 3.

Cauldron steel equipment costs the same as adamantine equipment.

Boiled Topaz: This blue-white topaz is found in thick veins full of solid bubbles, named for resembling boiling water. The shape and hardness of it make it seldom used in jewelry, but it has potency when used to make armor. This requires a smith who uses magic to shape and forge the gemstone, as normal methods are generally inadequate to form it. Boiled topaz can be forged into a breastplate or any heavy armor.  Armor made of boiled topaz costs an additional 10,000 gold.

Boiled topaz is found in and around ley lines that channel the power of Fire, but that pass close to sources of water or places with ties to Water. Armor made of boiled topaz retains some of that power, granting the wearer resistance to fire 10. Armor made of such has the same resistance to fire, apply this after the armor's hardness reduces damage.

Due to being filled with natural power, druids can use armor made of boiled topaz without penalty.

Boiled topaz has the same hardness and hit points as steel.

General magic notes: [spoiler]

Alignment spells:

Any spell that functions on an alignment also functions on it's more extreme version. Holy Word works on both evil and vile creatures in the exact same way, for example.

Permanency:

Permanency rules can be found here in depth. Yes, I have a sense of humor on occasion.

Sanctified and vile magic:

You must be the appropriate extreme alignment (Exalted and Vile, respectively) to cast these spells. In addition, spontaneous spellcaters who meet this prerequisite can select these spells if they desire. Also, clerics cannot spontaneously cast any sanctified spell.

XP costs

Since we don't use XP, spells with an XP cost require money in the form of rare components. Multiply the XP cost by 10 and that's the cost of the components that must be provided. This adds the M component to a spell if it previously lacked it.

Epic magic:

See the epic rules, as there are considerable changes to epic magic.

Banned spells:

Spoiler: ShowHide

The following categories of magic are banned and may not be selected. The reason why is noted in parenthesis.

Instant death magic (In a campaign where resurrection is uncertain, instantly killing characters is not in anyone's best interests.)
Polymorph magic, barring the polymorph subschool spells with one fixed form (Polymorph is a clusterfuck in 3.5 and wholly open to abuse. The later spells are far better balanced.)
Resurrection magic (Barring the houseruled resurrection and normal reincarnation.)
Magic that provides rerolls (Soft ban, with the level of optimization in play, I'd rather leave some risk to things. No risk, no reward. There's always a chance you're going to blow a roll.)

The following spells are banned and may not be selected. This is addition to the above spell categories that are already banned. The reason why is noted in parenthesis.

Celerity (+Lesser/Greater variants) (It's broken and hugely abuse prone. No, casters don't get to take their turns whenever they want.)
Delay Death (I'd rather not have a spell able to make going to 0 or less hit points risk free or close to it. It ups the escalation stakes too far.)
Discern Location (Ruins too many premises. I'm fine with powerful magic but this one is just a bit too direct and potent. I'd rather ban it than design specific 'nuh uh this one beats the fact that this beats normal counter measures' shit.)
Energy Immunity (Is an epic spell. See 10th level epic magic; I feel energy immunity via magic should be placed back into epic.)
Find the Gap (See above. Mildly less abusive the way its set up, still nothing I want going around.)
Genesis (Demiplane creation is handled by epic level spells. It's soft banned since it's referenced by other spells, I'd just rather not use this one for a variety of reasons.)
Hunter's Mercy (Automatic critical hit with a 1st level spell isn't really the sort of balance I want.)
Ice Assassin (A broken mess I'd rather not deal with.)
Make Manifest (+Mass) (Giant headache of a spell to deal with. Not worth it.)
Ruin Delver's Fortune (Just too good for the spell level.)
Scintillating Scales (Fucks with touch AC balance and is abusive.)
Starmantle (Hugely abusable.)
Surge of Fortune (You can't summon natural 20s on demand.)
Thunderlance (Too good at what it does.)
Wings of Cover (Way too good at what it does for a 2nd level spell.)
Wraithstrike (Hideously broken. If you don't know why, consider how much of mid/high level monster's AC is from natural armor.)

Changed spells:

Spoiler: ShowHide

For changes to spells that don't warrant rewriting the entire spell, or affects multiple spells.

Consecrate (and its evil twin): Adds 1d6 to channel energy's dice.
Contingency: Any contingency must be expressed in one simple and clear sentence. No commas, no second sentences.
Deadly Sunstroke: Now has the fire descriptor.
Deathwatch: No longer has the evil descriptor.'
Forcecage: Allows a Reflex save when first cast to escape. This is purely for game balance reasons.
Freedom of Movement: Grants a +15 to CMD vs grapples instead of granting immunity to them.
Greater Mighty Wallop: This now gives a flat two size category increase to the targeted bludgeoning weapon.
Holy Word (and its cousins): These spells all allow a saving throw with a -2 penalty. These spells are horribly powerful otherwise.
Lore of the Gods: Reroll aspect is removed. The rest of the spell works as written.
Mage's Disjunction: Is known as magic disjuction. Works as a targeted dispel on all magics and magical items within the radius. A magic disjunction does not permanently disjoin magical items and cannot destroy artifacts; artifacts and divinities are immune to mortal magic such as this.
Maw of Chaos: Change the school to evocation and retain the chaotic descriptor.
Moon Blade: You can only make one attack per round with a Moon Blade and not iteratives. You do not apply any bonus damage to your Moon Blade, such as power attack, sneak attack or arcane strike. To compensate since this is admittedly a harsh reading of it, the Moon Blade strikes incorporeal undead without difficulty due to its nature, as if it was a force attack.
Owl's Insight: The insight bonus to wisdom is capped at +10 at CL 20.
Prismatic spells: Prismatic spells use two substitutions. Green inflicts 2d6 con damage and fortitude negates. Blue stuns for 1d6 rounds and fortitude negates.
Ray of Stupidity: This now inflicts a penalty to intelligence instead of damage, and thus cannot lower intelligence past 1. It's not an instant win vs animals or anything with a low int score.
Reciprocal Gyre: The Spell Compendium version is trumped by the Complete Arcane version, as the former was nerfed into being a bad joke.
Sanctify the Wicked: Requires a willing target who wants to reform and accepts the spell of their own free, uncompromised will.
Serene Visage: Is now a 2nd level spell instead of a 1st level spell.
Summon Monster: Avorals and Leonals are replaced by movanic and monadic devas, respectively.
Summon Spells (SM, SNA and others): Casting times are reduced from 1 round actions to 1 standard action.
Trap the Soul: Is now a necromancy spell.
Wings of Flurry: Caps at 10d6 damage.
Phase Door: This spell can be applied to any solid surface and need not be a wall. Measures that stop ethereal travel stop this spell.

Wish/Miracle:

Spoiler: ShowHide

The following changes apply to wish, limited wish, miracle, bend reality and reality revision. They have power, though the main feature of them is the utility and flexibility the spells offer.

- These spells no longer have an XP component. You do not need to provide an expensive material component (see general magic notes, above), this requirement is simply eliminated.
- Asking for a modified version of a spell is acceptable, including scaled up versions that are within the limits of the spell's power.
- Wishes and miracles follow the path of least resistance. If an existing spell they can mimic accomplishes the request, it does so.
- Generally, such spells attempt to interpret requests as fairly as possible, twisting of wishes doesn't happen unless you make a foolish one.
- Casting such spells is a great strain on the body, as enforcing will directly onto the Weave is something beyond all but deities. For one hour after casting such a spell, the caster suffers 50% spell failure. This spell failure cannot be mitigated by any means short of divine intervention. Should they cast such a spell within that hour, the time the penalties last resets to one hour and the spell failure rises to 60%. A third casting within an hour again resets the duration of the penalties and increases the spell failure to 80%. Should a foolhardy spellcaster manage a fourth such spell within an hour, they immediately die.
- Limited wish and bend reality are not as taxing as wish, miracle or reality revision. The spell failure penalties are reduced to 25%, 30% and 40%. If you mix one of these with a wish, miracle or reality revision, the higher spell failure rate applies. For example, casting limited wish and then wish results in 60% spell failure.
- Note that these limitations apply to mortal spellcasters. Deities are not subject to them.
- Wish as a spell-like ability is usually granted to creatures working on behalf of a powerful extraplanar patron (such as genies and pit fiends). In these cases, the wish may act more like a miracle and exceed the normal limits of the wish spell. This includes the wish being rejected, though this is extremely rare.

Limited Wish/Wish

- Cannot create permanent items of value, be they mundane or magical, unless a spell it can mimic can do so.
- Cannot grant inherent bonuses to ability scores. They aren't used in Balmuria.
- Cannot fully heal or restore creatures, beyond the spells that they can mimic.
- A wish cannot revive the dead nor can it mimic the spell resurrection. Reincarnate is fair game, however.
- Wishes and miracles can transport creatures, but they do observe local conditions. Measures that stop teleportation and plane shifting will stop these.

Miracle

- The above limitations on limited wish and wish apply when appropriate.
- The greater effects of miracle are possible. This is essentially pleading for direct divine intervention and may or may not happen at your patron's desire. Even if your patron intervenes, it takes a form the deity wishes, which may not match the precise desires of the spellcaster.
- In the event a miracle prompts direct divine intervention, it may be opposed by another relevant deity involved in the situation (such as calling on your deity to destroy a temple of an opposing deity). This is resolved by the deities making opposed divine rank checks. If the caster's deity wins, the miracle happens as requested. If the opposing deity wins, the miracle fails.

[/spoiler]

Combat:

Spoiler: ShowHide

The death from massive damage rule is not used. You're already punished by taking 50+ points of damage in a single strike.

We use CMD and CMB from Pathfinder as well as the added combat maneuvers, with the following exceptions:

- Your chance to stabilize is equal to your Constitution score, rather than 10%. Likewise, you die when your hit points equal a negative number equal or lower than your Constitution score. For example, a character with 20 Con dies at -20 and lower hit points.

- We use pathfinder's size modifiers for CMB and CMD.

- One grapple check per round, rather than lots of 'em on iteratives.

- We keep the 3.5 style of combat maneuver feats with a few tweaks, see up in feats for more information.

- Tumble is now an opposed check against the target's CMD.

- Provoking an AoO and taking damage from it does not disrupt a combat maneuver. This changes certain maneuvers, such as grapple. This does not apply if the effects of the AoO would render you unable to continue the combat maneuver, such as putting you at -1 or lower hit points or applying a status condition.

- You may lift an enemy with a CMB vs CMD check, this provokes an AoO from the target unless you are already grappling them. You may throw them 5ft per 5 points of Strength you possess, assuming you have the requisite Strength score to lift them. They take falling damage equal to the distance they were thrown.

CMB = Base attack bonus + Strength modifier + special size modifier + temporary attack bonuses (haste, charge, heroism, knowledge devotion, arcane strike, smite and any other bonuses to hit)
CMD = 10 + Base attack bonus + Strength modifier + special size modifier + Dexterity modifier + miscellaneous modifiers (circumstance, deflection, dodge, insight, luck, morale, profane, and sacred bonuses to AC)

Psionics:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Magic/Psionics transparency should be assumed to be in effect at all times, unless stated otherwise. See here for more information: http://www.d20srd.org/srd/psionic/psionicPowersOverview.htm#psionicsMagicTransparency

Resurrection rules:

Spoiler: ShowHide

The normal SRD spells of raise dead, resurrection and true resurrection are banned. A one size fits all spell is used in it's stead. Reincarnate exists and works as normal, as does clone. Other non SRD spells vary, ask me about them. Resurrection now costs no money, but it relies on two things - divine will and the chance that the spell will still fail. Do note that divine will is a fickle thing, and often pays no attention to who is a PC. Further, even a PC may fail a resurrection chance check.

Resurrection
Level: Clr 6
Components: V, S, M, DF
Casting Time: 10 minutes
Range: Touch
Target: Dead creature touched
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: None.
Spell Resistance: No.

This spell raises the dead. This spell can even bring back creatures whose bodies have been destroyed, provided that you unambiguously identify the deceased in some fashion (reciting the deceased's time and place of birth or death is the most common method).

Upon completion of the spell, the creature is immediately restored to full hit points, vigor, and health, with no loss of level (or Constitution points) or prepared spells. Status conditions are removed unless stated otherwise. You can revive someone killed by a death effect or someone who has been turned into an undead creature and then destroyed. This spell cannot resurrect elementals or outsiders, nor can it resurrect constructs or undead creatures. In any case, the creature must succeed on a resurrection chance check or the spell fails.

This spell cannot be selected freely. A cleric can request it if they wish, but only their patron can decide if it should be allowed. At other times, a suitable cleric will find themselves granted with this spell, often with a stark vision of what is to be done with it.

Material Component

A droplet of fresh blood from the caster, to symbolize the rebirth given from the gods.

Resurrection chance rules:

From the moment of death to a week after, resurrection is not overly difficult. While the odds are not 100%, a spirit passing through the Well of Souls is much easier to call back than a spirit that has moved onto the Realms Beyond. Use the following formula:

Base resurrection chance: 75%

Modifiers:

+10% if the deceased's death was premature or left affairs beyond. A young man's murder, a parent dying and leaving children behind to fend for themselves, a warrior with an unfinished holy quest are all fine examples. Spirits motivated above and beyond even this tend not to reach the Well of Souls, becoming ghosts instead.

-10% if the deceased's death was due to old age or satisfying. An old man dying surrounded by beloved family, a paladin of Ilmater giving his life so that his friends live, a knight dying after assuring his kingdom will survive a terrible threat are all good examples.

+5% if the caster is a close friend, family member or beloved of the deceased.

-25% if a neutral but unconnected power attempts the resurrection. This applies to powers with no ties to the realm or god the deceased is going to pass onto - for example, a cleric of Mystra attempting to revive a follower of Hanali Celanil. This does not apply to friendly powers in the same group or alliance of powers at the DM's discretion: A cleric of Helm can raise a follower of Tyr just fine, for example.

Automatic failure if the caster is an enemy of the deceased or otherwise opposed to him. In essence this causes automatic rejection in all but the rarest instances. A paladin of Mystra isn't going to answer the call of a cleric of Shar. If the DM rules that the circumstances are exceptional enough to allow the possibility, treat this as -50% instead.

-10% if the deceased is aware of his afterlife and welcomes it. This doesn't mean that he may be going to one of the Heavens, only that he's happy with his assumed final fate.

+10% if the deceased is aware of his afterlife and dreads it.

-15% per previous resurrection. These stack, someone who has been revived twice has a -30% modifier, someone who has been revived three times has a -45% modifier and so on.

Further modifiers may be assigned by the DM as the situation warrants. The maximum chance to revive is 90%, there is still a small chance that a soul is unwilling or unable to return for whatever reason. Once a roll is passed or failed, this applies to all resurrection rolls until the soul reaches the Realms Beyond. This success or failure is final, a caster with better odds that would succeed on a previously failed check does not succeed. A soul that is revived, dies again and is resurrected again recalculates it's chances and rerolls. Direct divine intervention, in the form of a miracle spell or true divine action, are not affected by any of these rules. In the case of a miracle spell, the deity still must choose to intervene - a mortal cleric casting miracle is not assured of resurrecting another if his god is not willing.

---

A soul that has passed into the Realms Beyond is far more difficult to recall. It may be content in paradise. Perhaps it has found the spring of the ethos that drove it's life, becoming one with it or an exemplar of it. The less fortunate may be found in chains and tormented, or reborn as the lowest of the low souls in the Hells. For all these various reasons, resurrections after a week have passed are far more likely to fail. Use the following formula:

Base resurrection chance: 10%

-20% to +20% depending on the deity or outer plane the deceased went to. Deities take precedence over outer planes when applicable - someone who died in the service of Mystra would use her modifier and not the modifier of Elysium. See sub-table 1 for more information.

+10% if the deceased's death was premature or left affairs beyond. A young man's murder, a parent dying and leaving children behind to fend for themselves, a warrior with an unfinished holy quest are all fine examples.

-10% if the deceased's death was due to old age or satisfying. An old man dying surrounded by beloved family, a paladin of Ilmater giving his life so that his friends live, a knight dying after assuring his kingdom will survive a terrible threat are all good examples.

+5% if the deceased does not fit the exact alignment of his deity or outer plane. Again, deity takes precedence over outer plane.

-5% if the deceased fits the exact alignment of his deity or outer plane. Again, deity takes precedence over outer plane.

+5% if the caster is a close friend, family member, or beloved of the deceased.

Automatic failure if the caster is an enemy of the deceased or otherwise opposed to him. In essence this causes automatic rejection in all but the rarest instances. A paladin of Mystra isn't going to answer the call of a cleric of Shar. In this case no possibility of success is allowed - a power isn't going to allow souls faithful to it to be called away from it's realm.

-20% if the deceased failed a resurrection roll in the Well of Souls.

-15% per previous resurrection. These stack, someone who has been revived twice has a -30% modifier, someone who has been revived three times has a -45% modifier and so on.

Further modifiers may be assigned by the DM as the situation warrants. The maximum chance to revive is 50%, there is still a sizable chance that a soul is unwilling or unable to return for whatever reason. A soul that is revived, dies again and is resurrected again recalculates it's chances and rerolls. Only direct divine intervention by the deity or realm that the soul resides in can bypass these rules.

Sub-Table 1: Modifiers for resurrection chance by relevant divinity or realm. Short blurbs are given to explain modifiers; more information on the reasons behind a power's modifier can be given if you're curious.

Alicia: -20%. - Is generally against resurrection and prefers that souls pass on in peace.
Auril: -20%. Spring never comes to Auril's realm, only endless winter.
Angharradh: +20%. - A goddess of elven life, the Triune Goddess brings renewal to her followers, including resurrection and reincarnation.
Corellon Larethian: 0% The Elffather's role is to herald his children home when they come to him, but if they are to go back, so be it.
Empress Sulia: +10%. Empress Sulia celebrates the sacrifices of martyrs, giving them many honors. This sometimes includes another chance at life.
Gond: 0% - As the god of both constructive and destructive creation, Gond respects both life and death.
Helm: +10% -  Duty always marches forward, and who among the faithful lets their duty go?
Ilmater: +5% - This one's complicated. While Ilmater values sacrifice and mending the pain and suffering of many, including death, many of his faithful look towards his afterlife as a respite from a lifetime of suffering for others. This complicated relationship restrains Ilmater's hands somewhat.
Jannath: -10%. Jannath prefers reincarnations within the week after death, those that pass beyond are less likely to return.
Lathander: +20%. - Is the god of the dawn, new life and newborns. Duh.
Mother Ocean: +10%. - Is a goddess of healing, yet is not the true lifebringer, as that falls to Father Earth.
Mystra: 0% - Magic is to be used wisely; including resurrection magic. She has no leanings here.
Red Knight: +5% - Death is often a sign of poor strategy, but many games allow a second chance. In the end, she prefers her faithful to have a chance to go back and learn more.
Seira: +20% - Seira values life.
Sharess: 0%. - Sharessians value life, yet what waits beyond is life eternal and pleasure never-ending. Ultimately, Sharess is neutral on this matter.
Syala: -5%. - Syala has a neutral opinion of resurrection, but finds it difficult to banish souls who have found peace and paradise in Sylica back to the material world.
Umberlee -20% or +20%. - Umberlee is a destructive deity, but is vulnerable to flattery. If her faithful offer up sufficient tribute to her, the modifier changes from -20% to +20%. Such is the mercy of the savage seas.

Celestia: -5% - Once the climb up the Holy Mountain is begun, few turn away from it.
Elysium: -10% - Who can leave perfection?
Arborea: 0% - Arborea respects the choice of the soul, doing nothing to encourage or inhibit this choice.
Mechanus: 0% - Mechanus holds that resurrection is acceptable and part of the natural cycle. Excessive use gets maruts sicced on you, as noted in their flavor text.
Limbo: Random, roll 1d6: 1: -20% 2: -10% 3: -5% 4: +5% 5: +10% 6: +20% -Limbo does whatever Limbo wants at any one moment.
Baator: -20% - This can vary depending on soul pacts and relevant contracts. For a typical schlep who ends up here the odds of coming out are painfully low to non-existent.
Hades: -20% - The gray depths of Hades damns all who come and let precious few ever go.
Abyss: +20%- However, those who come back from the Abyss have very high odds of strange mutations. Gaining Abyssal Heritor, Vile or Anarchic feats is normal. The Abyss wants to reach out and kill you and everyone you care for, then make them wallow in agony for a few eternities.

After a soul is raised, there is a chance that they came back a little bit...different. Wrong, or at least still touched by the grave. There is a flat chance of 20% that someone resurrected will roll on the Resurrection Mishaps table from page 80 of Heroes of Horror. A result completely contrary to the interests of reviving deity should be rerolled. This does not prevent unfortunate results, but only stops ones that make no sense based on the power involved.

General rulings, clarifications and miscellanea: [spoiler]

This is for odds and ends, as well as changes that don't mandate an entry elsewhere. Rulings involving how multiple abilities, feats, skills or other things interact go here as well. It's a grab-bag of various rulings.

1. Maximize and Empower Spell work together as follows:  The full results are maximized. A 10d6 empowered maximized fireball is 90 damage, not 60+5d6. This is primarily for speed of play.
2. Spellcasting Harrier clarification: The AoO triggers with casting defensively, no matter if it's a spell or spell-like ability.
3. Adjudicating Mindsight: Mindsight is foiled by mind blank. In addition, a ring of mind shielding or any other effect that explicitly stops mind reading stops mindsight.
4. Skirmish is not triggered by teleportation, dimension door, abrupt jaunt or anything like that.
5. Energy drain never results in lost levels. However, if the fort save made after 24 hours fails, the negative level condition becomes permanent until removed via a restoration spell or similar.
6. Strength Devotion's slam attack overlaps with unarmed strike damage from monk and other sources. You use whichever is better.
7. Ascetic Mage and Arcane Strike don't stack. You may use one or the other on any given turn, but not both. If you do, you only gain the to hit bonus and the damage bonus of arcane strike.
8. Regarding Divine Metamagic. While it's not outright banned, it can be abused. If you take this expect a chat with me and a DM judgment call on if I'll allow it. DMM-Persist isn't happening.
9. Spell resistance functions only on hostile spells. It is a selective defense, allowing helpful spells through and possibly blocking hostile ones. This requires no action on the part of the creature with spell resistance, it is automatic.
10: The errata for Healing Hymn is ignored. The amount of benefit from Healing Hymn is not capped.
11: The feign death alternate class feature from Exemplars of Evil is a supernatural ability. With all the immunities it hands out I'm inclined to see it as something supernatural rather than a matter of pure skill.
12: Smite evil can apply on smites against objects that radiate evil, such as unholy weapons. This applies to all the ethical smites with their opposite.
13: Smite evil is part of an attack and can thus be done as many times as you wish during a round, as long as you have further attacks and smite evil uses to expend. You can still only use one smite per attack.
14: If you want to reroll a knowledge check you made on a previous level, you need to post what information I gave you last time. This prevents me from having to log-dive and find it and ensures a speedy reply. If you botched the roll and got nothing, say so.
15: Monks can use animated shields without penalty, as they require no effort to use and do not inhibit their defenses at all.
16. Divine bonuses from the BoVD should be treated as untyped bonuses instead. Mortal creatures very, very, very rarely get a divine bonus to anything, and even then it's almost always transitory and the result of remarkable circumstances. This conflicts with the bonus Dispater gets from the Iron Tower, but I'm not using any of those stats anyway.
17. Design note I've been meaning to add: PrCs don't get ACFs or anything like that. Base classes do. This  comes up every now and again and I'd like to have something to point to rather than explain it each time. So here.
18: Transmuting beats typical damage reduction descriptors (adamantine, cold iron, silver, good, evil, lawful, chaotic) without difficulty. Unique damage reduction, such as possessed by an abomination, is not bypassed by a transmuting weapon.
19 Invisible spell vs common sense: common sense wins. If you can't see an effect that relies on being visual - an illusion or obscuring mists, for example - it doesn't affect you.
20: Mutability of fluff: Fluff can be changed sometimes, especially to convert a PrC to this campaign's style. That's fine. It's not so fine when the fluff is a limitation to the class. Fist of the Forest is the biggest example here.
21: Stacking the same stat more than once to an attribute isn't allowed. No getting cha to AC or saves 2, 3 or 4 times. There are very rare exceptions to this, none of which are likely to come up for any of you. In a related ruling, anything that's similar but not flawlessly identical, such as a paladin of tyranny's divine grace and a blackguard's dark blessing, are ruled not to stack regardless of the previous ruling. This only applies to x stat to y value typed abilities.
22: Lingering Flames deals damage on casting, entering the radius and once per round on the caster's turn. You can only take damage from Lingering Flames once per round, as determined by the caster's turn. Each round requires a new save, though SR is a single-time check on first being exposed.
23: Fortunate Fate and Contingency/Heal do not stack. Casting one dispels the previous.
24: In the case of Battle Blessing, Automatic Metamagic (Quicken) and similar things that quicken spells for free, you can choose to cast each individual spell as quickened or its normal casting time. For example, a paladin with Battle Blessing could cast cure light wounds as a swift action then bless as a standard action.
25: Darkstalker stops mindsight and other rare, unusual forms of sensing. It's meant to be encompassing, so I give it credit versus random ways to detect things from other splatbooks.
26: You can cleave mirror images. If you have great cleave, you can keep cleaving images until you miss, run out or hit the caster.
27. The Ancestral Weapon feat (BoED) and Kensai's Signature Weapon ability don't work together. This just saves all sorts of headaches.
28. Dimensional Lock stops bags of holding and other such things.
29. Moment of Prescience's skill bonus only applies to opposed skill checks. That's how I read the bit about 'opposed ability or skill check'. Opinions on this one seem to vary, so I'm noting it here.
30. Wands only require you to hold the wand and point it. No verbal word is required. This is how I've ran them and this is apparently argued, so I'm putting this here for clarity. Blame Alicia.
31. Outsiders and breathing. Lesser outsiders need to breath. Greater ones from about 12 to 15 hit dice don't need to. The exact time this onset varies, but is usually 100% by the time an outsider reaches 21 hit dice. Many still breathe out of habit, rendering them vulnerable to inhaled poisons and other such things. As purely spiritual beings, material things matter less to outsiders as they advance. This is one effect of that.
32. Spell enhancer (SC) can affect SLAs you cast. RAW and probably RAI I don't think this is true, but I also feel it's not objectionable.
33. One for the blasters out there: School Mastery (Evocation) for sorcerers in Dragon 357 now adds your class level as bonus damage to evocation spells. It replaces the flat +1 and still only applies on spells that deal hit point damage. For example, an 8th level sorcerer with this ACF deals an extra 8 points of damage with an evocation spell that deals hit point damage.
34. Antimagic field can be cast during a time stop, but doing so immediately dispels and ends the time stop due to the backlash of energies. Antimagic/dead magic and time stop don't mix.
35. Spell stowaway, wish/miracle and spell failure: Still applies, but you can choose not to auto cast the spell if you want to avoid the failure.
36. Divine Metamagic does not apply cost reductions to any metamagic it emulates. So if you have improved metamagic, divine metamagic and maximize spell, it still costs 3 uses of channel energy to maximize a spell.
37. Earrings take the head body slot for magical items. They're also sometimes used for slotless magical items.

8/6/14: Added a misc ruling about battle blessing and similar abilities. This is how I've ran it anyway, since RAW it means you can't cast those spells as anything but swift actions.

4/7/15: Moved how darkstalker interacts with mindsight and other rare means to misc rulings.
4/7/15: Streamlined and rewrote the changes to existing feats section. This was overdue.

4/8/15: Typo fixings.
4/8/15: Added goldenfire wrath as a new feat. It's for the dragonfire wrath paladin sub levels.
4/8/15: Added axani and cansin as LA+0 races in the races tab. This matches the changes to aasimar and tieflings.

4/8/15: Updated cauldron steel's writeup.
4/8/15: Added resurrection chance modifiers for the following deities: Auril, Umberlee, Red Knight.
4/8/15: Added a rule that makes you die at negative HP equal to your Con score. Also moved the ruling about stabilization checks into combat.
4/8/15: Removed some old, irrelevant misc rulings.
4/11/15: Clarified how the alignment houserules work a little.
4/11/15: Added a houserule about ravages in equipment and materials. In particular, this is codifying that I don't use the extra damage based on Charisma/type/being an evil cleric aspect of ravages.
4/13/15: Minor clarification to how shield block is houseruled.
4/16/15: Added a small addition to the +4 skill points per level rule. This clarifies that you get quadruple skill points for that +4 at first level.
4/16/15: Houseruled chaos devotion's bonus to be anarchic instead of sacred or profane.
4/16/15: Formatting tweaks.
4/16/15: Added an overdue gestalt tab and clarified how our gestalt works.

6/10/15: Quicken turning was clarified.
6/14/15: Houseruled faith in the frost, as it doesn't work well as written with channel energy.
6/17/15: Serenity now changes paladin casting back to Wisdom based.
7/8/15: Added the exalted feats from B5's bonus exalted feats.
7/8/15: Archivist is now fully Intelligence based for its spellcasting.
8/11/15: Pain Mastery from Savage Species got a houserule capping it at +12. I've meant to do this one since I stated out Ilmater, but I never got around to it.
8/12/15: Two houserules for Planar Champion. The first explains how I interpret attack ethereal and the other changes ethereal jaunt's caster level.
8/24/15: Added a houserule in misc for how I handle mirror image + cleave.
8/25/15: Marshal's art of war aura now applies to CMB instead of named maneuvers. Added in classes.
9/25/15: Added a houserule to misc rulings. Ancestral weapon and kensais don't mix.
9/25/15: How Kensai works without XP has been added to classes.
10/5/15: Houseruled the Tactical Advantage feat from Dragon magazine to feats. No great change, just having it work with CMB/CMD period, rather than calling out different maneuvers.
10/31/15: Fixed a minor wording issue in Initiate of Alicia in new feats. 
10/31/15: HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
11/25/15: Houseruled Haunting Melody in feats.
12/17/15: Clarified how channel energy's damage dice progress.
12/12/15: Misc rulings got a bit on dimensional lock and bags of holding interacting.
12/25/15: MERRY CHRISTMAS!
1/20/16: Added that we do not use the death form massive damage rule to combat.
1/31/16: Added a ruling on moment of prescience to misc rulings.
2/13/16: Added Surge of Hope to banned spells. This one happened way back in B1 and never made it here for some reason. So there.
2/17/16: A new houserule in misc rulings about wands.
2/29/16: Typo cleanup.
2/29/16: Added a trio of houserules about factotum's cunning brilliance ability to classes.
2/29/16: Hunter's insight added to feats.
2/29/16: Added Corellon Larethian's resurrection chance roll modifier to resurrection rules.
3/3/16: Houserule for how we handle XP components is added to general magic notes under the magic tab.
3/3/16: Wish/miracle section added to the magic tab. This explains how we use them, they're basically really souped up anyspells.
3/6/16: Ice assassin added to banned spells. This one wasn't ever going to be used anyway, as it has problems and ways to abuse it. This is just making the facts on the ground match reality.
3/6/16: Ruin delver's fortune also added to banned spells. Same as the previous. Really, each function of the spell isn't a problem, but the whole is a bit much. Honestly, you could break down the four functions of the spell and make it a core part of a PrC, it's that versatile.
3/29/16: Changed limited wish and bend reality to have lower spell failure.
4/29/16: Outsiders and breathing added to misc rulings.
5/6/16: Added the feats from the spiritual wounds article to feats.
5/12/16: Added a few feats from Renbuu to new feats. Warrior of Chaos and Slaad Rush, incidentally.
5/14/16: Added some changed spells for the transformation domain in changed domains.
5/17/16: A new magic item property has been added to magic items, coordinating. It's for the fashion-aware adventurer.
5/28/16: Boiled topaz added to new materials. It's from B5.
10/25/16: Typo correction.
1/18/17: Added a ruling to misc rulings about spell enhancer and SLAs.
2/24/17: Updated Dirty Fighting for 3.5. It's in feats.
2/24/17: Dropped the requirement for lightning fists from broken fist mastery II in feats. Lightning fists is just a headache I'd rather not deal with.
2/25/17: Changed the bonus for broken fist mastery II to a flat +8 to trip CMB/CMD. Still probably too good, but the prereqs are already huge.
5/16/17: Added 5 new bardic music feats to new feats.
6/15/17: Fixed a typo in banned spells. Wings of cover, not flurry.
6/22/17: Added a intuitive archivist feat for Lucy.
6/23/17: Misc rulings has an update on school mastery (evocation). +1 damage to evocation spells for your familiar? Brutal.
8/16/17: Spells have a new ruling on phase door.
3/18/18: Two upgrades to warmages. Both help a bit, but they're either obsoleted by duskblades or you're using them to patch on extra spells with shenanigans, anyway.
3/19/18: New misc ruling on time stop and anti magic field. Namely, trying shenanigans by casting AMF in a time stop ends poorly.
3/21/18: Three rulings for master of the unsee hand added. Trying to unsuck them enough to be passable.
4/12/18: Miser with magic added to banned feats.
4/15/18: Added an extra aura feat for marshals in new feats.
4/30/18: Ring of Evasion added to magic items as a banned item. This has been the facts on the ground for a long time but never made it here. Whoops.
5/3/18: Rainbow Servant added to changed classes. Short version: Splits the difference between text and table, as I feel the class is too good with 10/10 progression. Look, we all know it's only taken for the cleric spell access shenanigans. It's priced accordingly.
5/18/18: Added Starmantle to banned spells. The item is already there in its relevant section, just forgot to add the spell or accidentally removed it at some point. Fixed now.
5/20/18: Added misc ruling about spell stowaway, wish/miracle and spell failure.
7/7/18: Added golden ice fist to new feats.
7/26/18: Moved the two war mage houserules to the right area. They were in miniatures handbook instead of complete arcane, whoops.
8/22/18: Houseruled the two polymorph spells in the animal domain. I hate going to the SC for a core domain, but there's simply no other suitable spells than two more SNAs and the domain already has two levels of that.
9/21/18: Houseruled shock trooper over in feats. The feat's problematic for one part of it, while the other two uses are great and reasonable for someone focusing on bull rushes. So the bad part is gone and the BAB prereq is reduced as compensation. It's a rough solution but there's not a lot of room to work with there. Heedless charge is simply a bad idea and dreadfully abusable in power attack combos.
2/20/19: Offiically banned cunning surge over in classes, to the surprise of no one. This merely matches facts on the ground.
3/4/19: Forcecage now allows a Reflex save when first cast to escape it.
3/10/19: Added a versatile craftsman feat in new feats.
6/10/19: Added some added detail to how Pathfinder material can be used. Short version: I haven't seen much I usually want to bring over in all my years running with it, and some of it has various problems due to the divergences between 3.5 and Pathfinder, so be aware that I'm giving any Pathfinder material an extra careful look. To be honest, this matches how I've treated in the few times it comes up the past few years.
12/20/19: Added an Initiate of Antenora feat.
2/14/20: Added another ruling for DMM in Misc rulings.
2/17/20: Substituted the granted power of the Luck domain to something else.
3/10/20: Substituted Power Word Stun for Discern Location for the Retribution Domain.
4/15/20: Added a misc ruling about earrings, in case y'all come on some magical ones. Odd little crag of 3.5 right there, I may move this somewhere better later.
5/22/20: Added a note that Genesis is a banned spell and why, see it for more details.
7/21/20: Substituted Mind Blank for Discern Location for the Wealth Domain.
