House Rules and Clarifications

This page describes house rules as well as clarifications for the Emblem of Ea. Note that many adjustments or clarifications may be also found on their individual pages. Items on these pages aren't an invitation for arguments, debates, or snarks.

In addition, just because it is quoted on the Paizo forums does not mean we will use it here. This might seem obvious, but bears worth stating.

Magic

Nobility Domain

Note that since Emblem of Ea does not use Leadership, Nobility's domain needed adjusted. Its 8th level ability has been replaced with Connections.

Breath of Life

The use of this spell is expanded somewhat to make it friendlier to a MUSH environment. It's now open to other divine casters, though at a slightly reduced effect. See the Magic page for adjustments.

Classes

Smite

Smite (from paladin, creature templates, or PrC) may apply to all spells that employ an attack roll and deal hit point damage. It is otherwise handled similarly to Sneak Attack bonus damage (it applies once per casting of scorching ray), though the range isn't limited as with SA.

Miscellaneous Houserules

Touch Attacks and Weapon Finesse

Weapon finesse may benefit melee touch attacks, allowing the attack roll to be based on Dexterity rather than Strength.

Equipment

The elven curveblade is not available in Tenebrae at this time.
