How to go from a humorous campaign to a more serious one? I don't really have any specific advice here. But if you want a huge list of examples in a variety of other media, you could peruse the TVTropes article for the so-called Cerebus Syndrome. |

Animated dead in challenge ratings It still takes an action and a spell slot, and the party had the opportunity earlier in the combat to destroy the corpses. I'd suggest looking at the FAQ I link to, since it discusses some of the ideas. It suggests that if the necro does it right before combat, that you kind of split the difference, since it didn't take an action. But in combat that's about the same as summoning, and shouldn't count towards the CR/XP. |

Are Weapon Finesse and two-handed wielding mutually exclusive? No, swashbucklers add intelligence in addition to strength on damage rolls. You'd still only get the 50% bonus on the strength modifier. |

Are Weapon Finesse and two-handed wielding mutually exclusive? I think you're confused on one point: Weapon Finesse only allows you to use your Dex in place of Str on the attack roll. Your damage roll still uses Str as normal, and it's only that which gets the bonus for wielding in two hands. |

What Resources Are Available For Poison? Complete Adventurer has slightly modified rules for poison creation -- you get them at 1/6 the price instead of 1/3 when crafting. I think it might also have a few additional poisons listed? Haven't looked at it in a while. |

Help turning my NPC Druid Undead That's because of the wide-reaching polymorph errata WotC issued late in the 3.5 lifecycle. All core abilities that depended on polymorph were rewritten to depend on alternate form. The SRD has the updated text, but they didn't bother to errata most of the splat books. |

Memories of undeath once resurrected? If there's an explicit answer anywhere, it's probably in the Libris Mortis -- unfortunately that's one of the few books I don't have access to. So hopefully someone else can take a look! |

GM attacking a recently stabilized ally: is this allowed? Surely it depends on the tier and abilities of the PC? I've never played much 4e, but IIRC there were a lot of ways to come back from the dead by epic tier. |

Help turning my NPC Druid Undead An aside: You might want to look at the Blighter prestige class in Complete Divine. It's got a "fallen druid" theme; they get abilities to suck energy from plant life, wildshape into undead animals, spread plague, etc. |

Where do the standard racial tropes for Dwarves come from? This answer actually seems to be better than most in the duplicate question. (The top voted answer seems a little superficial, in that it pins everything on Tolkein alone, and doesn't discuss how the idea transitioned into RPGs.) Although this question got closed, you should copy your thoughts over to the other one. |

Does D&D 3.5e have rules for firearms? Pathfinder is probably the best bet for more in depth 3.5 compatible rules -- I'd list that before d20 Modern or Iron Heroes, which will make some (possibly hidden) assumptions about the rules. |
