I have a little situation in my campaign.

Player's wizard trapped a succubus (used Planar Binding, Magic Circle against Evil, buffed himself with Heroism, cast Bestow Curse on succubus to drop her saves, even cast Charm Monster on her) and asked her to give him, and his friends (almost all of the other players) Profane Gifts.

Under the effect of Charm Monster our bruised little succubus (they kicked her a little after grappling her and putting manacles on her) gave almost everyone her Profane Gifts, before she could give PG to the last person and be merry on her way back to Abyss, wizard petrified her (Flesh to Stone cast under Invisibility and using Silent Metamagic), then put his new sexy statue behind a wall in his basement.

What little options I have left are:
1) she could use Suggestion on her new gifted "friends" to free her (but she's isolated in wizard's tower highest room)
2) does succubus being petrified have any effect on her Profane Gifts?
3) can she use Suggestion in that state?

Any answers, advices, suggestions (pun intended :p)?

Hello fellow Pathfinders!

I need your help with my unusual Serpent's Skull team (character's wealth is used to equip his cohort/zombies):
- half-elf, natural werebear fighter 1/ rogue 11, his gear is worth ~650000gp
- werebear's cohort: degenerate serpentfolk fighter 6
- gnome (reincarnated into elf), aberrant sorcerer 11, turned into lich (his phylactery was recently destroyed), his gear is worth ~550000gp (that player is currently missing half sessions due to studying)
- human conjurer 11, turned into lich, his gear is worth ~750000gp
- lich's cohort: human fighter 11

Wizard also commands group of the undead, some he catched, some created from defeated NPCs and turned into juju zombies, all of them are under the spell Command Undead:
- mohrg rogue 6, advanced template
- 2 baykoks
- bebilith, turned into juju zombie, advanced template
- troglodyte fighter 2/cleric 8, turned into juju zombie, advanced template
- froghemoth, turned into fast zombie
- dire tiger (smilodon), turned into fast zombie

So you understand my dillemma - official statement is cohorts/animal companions/etc do not change APL, but in practice extra actions that they bring into a table significantly change flow of battle.
How high is the APL of this team?
Please, please help ;s

Last session our GM used incorporeal undead - shadow, with 11+ levels of monk. This unnatural creation of sick sadistic mind attacked us 5 times per round and with every hit drained k6 strength. Is it legal? I know that vampire monk can cause level drain only 1 time per round, what about shadows and energy drain?

Hello everyone.

First problem - my player's 14th level character (elf barb 2/fighter 12) fall in love with Polymorph Any Object spell. He wants to permanently change himself into gray render/girallon (not sure which one yet) as per Beast Shape IV spell.

Changed Subject Is…
Same kingdom (animal, vegetable, mineral) - Increase to Duration Factor +5
Same class (mammals, fungi, metals, etc.) - Increase to Duration Factor +2
Same or lower Intelligence - Increase to Duration Factor +2

All seem valid to me, duration factor 9 = duration permanent. Any objections?

Now, second problem - he wants his magic armor and magic shield/sword to be enlarged to fit him in his new form. There is clause in Permanency: "In addition to personal use, permanency can be used to make the following spells permanent on yourself, another creature, or an object (as appropriate)" - and on the list of spells we have Enlarge person.

Should I let him spend 2.500gp per object enlarged, or is it not possible and he needs them specifically crafted to suit his new, monster form?
