Well, in DND lead can genuinely block a lot of scrying affects.
Scrying confirmed for electromagnetism.

We are doomed. It's just that whatever is going to kill us all just happens to be, from a scientific standpoint, pretty frickin' awesome.

Scrying
A scrying spell creates an invisible magical sensor that sends you information. Unless noted otherwise, the sensor has the same powers of sensory acuity that you possess. This level of acuity includes any spells or effects that target you, but not spells or effects that emanate from you. However, the sensor is treated as a separate, independent sensory organ of yours, and thus it functions normally even if you have been blinded, deafened, or otherwise suffered sensory impairment.

Any creature with an Intelligence score of 12 or higher can notice the sensor by making a DC 20 Intelligence check. The sensor can be dispelled as if it were an active spell.

Lead sheeting or magical protection blocks a scrying spell, and you sense that the spell is so blocked.

My DND group missed so many details like that... Until death was imminent, at which point everyone desperately scanned the source books (;

Heh, I've heard that the grapple rules are pretty labrynthine.

They honestly aren't. It's basically take an attack of opportunity (if you don't have the grappler feat) and if the AOO fails, you two make normal attacks on each other, if you beat their result you're grappling, which is just a list of effects and possible actions you can take.

There's a lot of special modifiers to include, too.  Starting with size, but it gets a lot crazier once certain splatbooks are used.  Though to be fair, those splatbooks (Tome of Battle, Complete Warrior) make all melee a lot more complicated.  Trying to fix and expand a fairly limited system, and changing how characters interact directly.

Roy kills himself, which allows Golem Roy to pop out and Kill the Vampire?

Well, he does still have that Protection from Evil amulet, which among other things grants a bonus on saves against any effects created by evil creatures.

Giving waitlisted people the ability to murder non-responsive players was a great idea. Need to do that more often.
