I was recently in a game where my group got pretty much KO'ed by colour spray and was out of action for a severe amount of time. However, while unconscious it was unclear if the PC characters would regain consciousness after taking damage from other sources. In this case, the damage was caused by NPC's coup de gracing everyone, while we managed to survive the fort DC's at first. The spells unconsciousness effect lasted too long for it to matter and we died.

So basically im curious that because the spell caused an unconscious condition, does that mean there is no way to wake up before the duration expires?

I am wondering if the feat

Two-handed power strike – (+15 Str, power attack) You may add twice your strength bonus to damage when using a two-handed melee attack. Only applied during a full round combat option

Could ever be applied to the same attack action as

Overhand Chop: At 3rd level, when a two-handed fighter makes a single attack (with the attack action or a Charge) with a two-handed weapon, he adds double his Strength bonus on damage rolls.

I understand one specifies a full round action, while the other does not, but what if you used a single attack that also requires a full-round action to make?

If you take a basic tiger for example it has a 23 STR +4BAB giving it an 11 CMB, but the tiger is also Large sized.

So my question is do you have to add a size modifier to the creature, to calculate its base stats? Also in hybrid form, what kind of stat changes (if any) are applied to a PC to signify this change?

It's hard to imagine a PC character going from Med sized to Huge (over 16 feet/ 3,200 pounds)without some sort of AC/Dex nerf or CMD/CMB buff.

Thanks for your input!

In templates and the such it often, if not always, refers to a base creatures stats. In the case of a PC what does this mean exactly in terms of what you include in these stats?

Would this include ability modifications from other templates, tomes, and natural levels?

As an example a Dire weretiger would have a total of 36 strength in animal form, but if the PC had higher STR than this with the addition of other magical templates, tomes, items that would mean his STR wouldn't change past the normal +2 correct?

Also considering this would take a PC from med sized to huge sized would he not also, not gain any benefit/disadvantage from this size modification due to the fact the hybrid form's stats are worse?

Thanks for your help!

An example of the stat block including tomes/template
Tiger + Dire template : PC + Tome/templates
Str 31------------------36
Dex 17------------------18
Con 25------------------30
Int 2-------------------8
Wis 16------------------14
Cha 10------------------8
