When a domain gives a cleric the ability to command creatures other than undead, do they count towards the total HD of undead that the cleric can command or are they counted seperately?

Ive been gone for awhile. Why did the forums change? How can I reclaim my membership with the Hands of Karsus?

As in the rules, the ability to turn/rebuke undead is independent of other abilities to turn/rebuke other creatures given by domains, so I assume that the limits of HD commanded are accounted separately.

The forums changed because of the new edition, the administrators thought they must be changed. You can get more info at the Community Business forums, and there are also some threads around here...

If you want to rejoin the Hands of Karsus, send Lord Karsus a private message or wait until he reads this. He will, at least, listen to your petition.

-I'd say that they all count seperatley. When rebuking the Undead, you are summoning Positive Energy. When rebuking Fire Creatures, you'd be summoning Water Energy. So...

Why did the forums change?

-Numerous reasons, primary among them being that it is easier to moderate the website by consolidating areas that did not meet a specific level of activity.

-You still are. No one escapes.
