Converting Epic Level Beings

[Shade]

Yes it is. Each time you take, three levels of your spells are all treated as quickened. Take it three times, and all your spells are quickened, all the time.

He'll need reqular Quicken Spell and 30 ranks of Spellcraft for prereqs.

 

[BOZ]

right on.

how about the following list for skills:

Balance, Bluff, Climb, Concentration, Decipher Script, Diplomacy, Gather Information, Heal, Intimidate, Jump, Knowledge (arcana, history, religion, planes), Listen, Search, Sense Motive, Spellcraft, Spot

More:
Craft (stonemasonry?), Perform (percussion?)

 

[BOZ]

ideas for feats, hmm...

Ability Focus (gravity field) Combat Casting, Combat Expertise, Endurance, Great Fortitude, Improved Critical (slam), Iron Will, Power Attack (& such), Quicken Spell, Weapon Focus (slam)

 

[Shade]

Those feats all sound good. Taking into account my suggestion of Automatic Quicken Spell (x3), that leaves four epic feats. Right?

Here are some suggestions: Epic Fortitude, Epic Endurance, Epic Will, Fast Healing, Eschew Materials (nonepic), Ignore Material Components.

 

[Shade]

Your skill suggestions look good, too. I'd suggest adding Knowledge (nature) as well, since gravity is kinda natural.

Any particular historical reason for suggestiong Perform (percussion)?

 

[BOZ]

Trimming feats down a bit, how about:

Feats: Ability Focus (gravity field) Combat Casting, Combat Expertise, Endurance, Eschew Materials, Great Fortitude, Improved Critical (slam), Iron Will, Quicken Spell

Epic Feats: Automatic Quicken Spell (x3), Epic Fortitude, Epic Endurance, Epic Will, Fast Healing, Ignore Material Components


As for why I picked Perform (percussion)… for some reason, I like the idea that the Greek Titans (all except for maybe Coeus and Altas) would have some sort of musical inclination. You’ll notice that we gave Cronus, Oceanus, and Prometheus 2 or 3 Perform skills. For Crius, if he’d have one at all, I would think of drums, because they make a heavy booming sound – appropriate, neh? It’s hardly necessary though, which is why I left it optional.

I’ve tried to do the same thing with Craft where appropriate, hence the suggested stonemasonry (and what are stones, if not heavy?)

 

[Shade]

Looks good! The explanation for Perform and Craft makes perfect sense.

Along those same lines, perhaps Knowledge (architecture and engineering) would be appropriate, as bridges and the like often attempt to defy gravity. He might wanna know how they do that.

added a few more skills. how does this arrangement look for ranks?

Skills: 1144 Balance +37, Bluff +47, Climb +47, Concentration +47, Craft (stonemasonry) +47, Decipher Script +37, Diplomacy +31, Gather Information +47, Heal +37, Intimidate +47, Jump +53, Knowledge (arcana) +52, Knowledge (architecture and engineering) +40, Knowledge (history) +47, Knowledge (nature) +47, Knowledge (religion) +52, Knowledge (the planes) +57, Listen +47, Perform (percussion) +47, Search +47, Sense Motive +53, Spellcraft +52, Spot +47, Survival +37, Swim +42

That arrangement looks excellent. Isn't it fun assigning 1,144 skill ranks?

 

[BOZ]

tell me about it. i'll add all of this up when i have a moment...
