Covertly casting a spell +1 & +1 (If I could) Sleight of Hand & Conceal trick this is much cheaper than the feats and no spell level increases |

Covertly casting a spell +1 for the alt language bit. This is so much cheaper than the feats plus no spell level increases. |

Tried all the existing advice, but players still never roleplay fear I thought each battle should use only 20% of a party's resources? & Preferably with no PCs lost in battle. |

Tried all the existing advice, but players still never roleplay fear +1 which is why I think @Chad comment is so good..it forces players to fear death, or atleast the consequences of it. |

Tried all the existing advice, but players still never roleplay fear @Chad you should make that an answer! Holy XP Penalty batman, even if it doesn't make a particular player afraid it should motivate the players to give enough peer pressure to the one who insists on blindly charging into combat |

How can I balance an enemy that my players might encounter at different levels? I'm sorry, with all the answers below I just don't see how this is right. There are a lot of examples given that show multiple ways to do this. |

How can I balance an enemy that my players might encounter at different levels? This will probably take some work but I like this. My only question is, if they are all angels don't they already have basically the same powers? So to make it even more impressive, I'd give them each a special ability that most other angels don't have. Then when they fall the other angels get it too. Drop the PCs a hint that this is happening and not all angels have the same powers; maybe to use the power of their fallen brother/sister they have to say their name (in celestial)? |

Vow of Poverty, overpowered or underpowered? @Antimony that was for you too, for some reason I can't tag more than one person in a reply? |

Vow of Poverty, overpowered or underpowered? I think Antimony has it right. But Ben-Jamin did state it considers all the variables. And in a low-magic campaign I can see this working. Although as Ben also said, running into a flying enemy will make it more difficult. & @KRyan mentioned, why would the enemy focus on the minimal threat (monk) over the cleric/wizard? |

Vow of Poverty, overpowered or underpowered? Zach, while I'm inclined to agree with you this doesn't answer @KRyan point. Why would an intelligent enemy continue attacking the monk who isn't hurting him (regardless of the fact that the enemy can't hit him back)? As the enemy I would focus on Wizard or Cleric. just MHO. (that said I actually like the feat if properly used) |

Vow of Poverty, overpowered or underpowered? @KRyan, where do you get that VOP Clerics can't have a holy symbol? My impression was they could have a mundane wooden one, but no silver ones and obviously no magical ones. |

How do you make a vampire cleric stay dead? You could always "wish" them to be resurected, but any mortal magic could easily be undone by their goddess if she wants to (if this is the case there would be no answer; maybe they are just that important to the DM's story) |

How do you make a vampire cleric stay dead? My Question is, how are they resurecting undead creatures? Undead creatures can't be resurected...true res will bring them back to life (as in normal life, losing their undead template)..are they coming back to life and then automatically being killed by a vampire again? |

Is there an alternate rule to allow different stats for Male/Female? I wasn't attacking you, infact I see that, aside from the stereotype avoiding issues, the mechanical effects were more than I anticipated and I'm thinking the Flaw/Trait route may be the best approach. Thanks for the input btw |

Is there an alternate rule to allow different stats for Male/Female? I see my original thought process had a lot more negative reception than I thought. Yeah, adventures are better than the avg joe/jane but they're still people and I didn't think it would be too far fetched for the idea, but I hadn't thought through all the consequences (which is why I asked the question here) |

Is there an alternate rule to allow different stats for Male/Female? I agree with most of what you said, & thanks for the list of examples the game has (even the Eunuch, that I almost listed to be funny but as the new person here I didn't know how well it would be received) But I also think a group of adult players should be able to play a fantasy game without having hurt feelings over gender stereotypes. |

Is there an alternate rule to allow different stats for Male/Female? I like this and think I'll combine your answer with BESW's to get what I'm aiming for without penalizing them. |

Is there an alternate rule to allow different stats for Male/Female? I'm familiar with the traits/flaws, they've always been optional for us, but I think the best way to handle it without negatively impacting mechanics is to make them take atleast one and then let them choose a skill bonus that makes sense to their gender that way there's no direct penalty and a (somewhat) minor buff for their customization. |
