Epic problem OOC

[Ivellious]

Alright, I have what I would like to be, it's a half elven lvl 15 paladin/ 5 purple dragon knight/ 10 divine emissary

He would have the background of something like a typical paladin that got lucky and survived his war with evil to this day and amassed a huge army, which for obvious reasons will do him no good in this campaign, but became a great leader, rallying his troops, protecting them the best he could, and smiting down those who dropped his comrades. Then his deity (which will mostly likely be Corellon Larethian unless you've different gods for this campaign, then I would have to look.) would have approached him at a certain point, maybe telling him of future events, or maybe just preparing him for them by making him his divine emissary. I flesh it out more, but that's just the basic jist of it to get an understanding of why the Prcs I picked. If you've a problem with me having two of them then let me know, and I'll figure out something else, but that's my idea for now
[sblock]hints again at the fact that I would love a dragon mount, but will deal without one if that is your wish lol[/sblock]

I'm interested. There's a cleric I've had for a couple of epic games that died in the crib that I'd like to adapt for this game. I have a couple of questions. Would divine persistent be considered a cheap trick? And would the Destiny domain from Races of the Wild be allowable?

Here's the previous versions of the character from the previous campaigns. I would, of course, adapt him to fit the rules and background particulars of your campain
[sblock=Orgesht - Eye of Profane Truth version]Description:
Orgesht usually wears the guise of foppish aristocrat. A voluminously plumed stuffed torus hat sits atop plucked brows and intensely blue but jolly eyes. The features of his cleanshaven face are narrow but attractive. He wears a large deeply pleated, gold embroidered houppelaude trimmed in ermine. Below it, his calves are shown to advantage in silken hose. Ardorning his feet are a pair of pointed shoes exaggerated into a lazy curl.

This fanciful appearance is an illusion however. Beneath it, Orgesht typically takes on the form of a hulking grey-skinned humanoid with an elongated jaw and vicious over-sized claws. Blue eldritch flames crackle from the hollows of his deep set eyes. Incongruous on the charcoal skinned black robed figure, a set of angel's wings protude from his back with an elegant silver trimmed cloak hanging between them. He carries a gnarled of willow that exudes an aura of danger and menace.

Orgesht Neutral Human Cleric 26/Hierophant 3/Contemplative 1 of the Perfect

Having seen the paths of fate at the moment of his creation, Orgesht has little hope that any of the events surrounding the Eye of Profane Truth will come to a good end. Yet, the taint did little to diminish the strength of his connection to the Perfect. He is grateful for what little time is left before the unmaking of all things. But he is torn between a (somewhat corrupted) sense of duty and the desire to enjoy himself while he can.

When he first got the vision, Elezaeren was content to await the coming apocalypse deep in the arms of cold draughts and warm whores. He could have gone forth in the vain hope of changing fate. But it was the eyes that stopped him. The child in his vision looked nothing like the child in the village years before. But in both flames were reflected in their eyes like a window to hell.

Years ago he had had another vision, the village of Sobalvarre was going to be overrun with vampires. Then, Elezaeren acted immediately in hopes of averting the coming disaster. And it had seemed he was successful in cleansing the village of its vampiric taint. In the midst of that grim work he heard tell of a child that had disappeared. But when days of searching turned up nothing, the cleric eventually moved on. But Elezaeren soon returned upon seeing smoke high in the sky in the direction of Sobalvarre. His return was too late though, the village had been put to the torch after the utter slaughter of its residents. All that remain was the child, now a vampire. And in its soulless eyes, the cleric saw the flames of the ruined village reflected.

Those flames still haunted him. And when the new vision came, that of a golden haired child before whom even the gods trembled, it was that much the worse. For fires also danced in those child’s eyes. But this time it was a reflection of the world itself in flames. In retrospect it seemed likely that this doom that awaited the world was the secret his mentor Kharzhain, had oft referred to with some amusement. The whole city of Vaelkar had been terrified of Kharzhain, which was why Elezaeren had run to the man’s castle when the city guard was trying to arrest him for stealing. It had over three decades ago, but Elezaeren could clearly remember standing in the courtyard with those things watching him as the constables stood outside the gates hailing the manor lord. Even then K. had been venerable. He made his way out and across the courtyard at a pace so slow it was painful to watch. But with one palsied gesture from the ancient cleric, the guards paled and ran off. Then he turned to the youth and spoke, his voice a mixture of kindness and dark irony, “I’ve been waiting a very long time for you son. Come, there is much to be learned. And if I’m to teach you, there’s little time to learn it.”

Elezaeren’s apprenticeship was far from normal. Where many master’s where stingy with the information they imparted, Kharzhain was the opposite. He had his charge start by reading powerful magical tomes and practicing dangerous necromantic spells. Often he would make cryptic remarks like, “It was not given to me to see the glorious end, but through you I’ll at least have a hand in.” Kharzhain taught his student to supplicate himself before no gods, but instead to devote himself to Fate, for it was the one force before which even the gods themselves must bow. Elezaeren learned very quickly, but it was not long before his mentor’s health failed. On his deathbed the ancient cleric bequeathed his student his grand gnarled staff, Sorrow.

Though not intelligent, the weapon proved to be a burden to wield. For malice was infused into its creation. Several times Elezaeren nearly died in battle despite being untouched by enemies. Each blow struck with the mighty staff extracted its price.

It was another memory that caused him to forbear warm companionship in favor of the cold malice of Sorrow. He was Elezaeren the Prophet, founder and hierophant of the Church of Fate. Yet he found his own prestige distasteful. Despite all his protestations, his congregation habitually fell to their knees when he hentered the room. Their worship was for him not fate. As the flock grew more fervent the cleric's disquiet grew. Finally he left the church leaving his second in charge.

It was not long after that he began to hear ill word of his former church. Tales of sectarian battles with other faiths seemed to be on every tongue. Elezaeren returned, but once again he was too late. He returned to an empty building, his former follwers had been arrested by the king for various crimes. He considered breaking them out. Quite likely such a thing was entirely within his power. But he knew for a fact that such an act would bring only greater calamity.

This time, with the world hanging in the balance, Elezaeren has decided he cannot not turn his back on his responsibility, even if the future cannot not be changed. With a hopeless he seeks other heroes of great renown.[/sblock]

Question

Is the Ascetic Mage feat from Complete Adventurer okay? I ask because in the hands of an epic sorceror, you can get some pretty huge AC's going with it.

Ivellious - Dragon Mount OK, I believe there's a feat in Draconomicon that deals with it, if you've access you can use that. Or if you'ld prefer, we can work together to figure something out. Obviously the more powerful the dragon, the more likely it is he (or she) will think that THEY are the boss.

Also, I have no problem with mulitple prestige classes, just meet the pre-req's. I rarely have epic characters with LESS than 2 prestige classes.

Darimaus - That all Sounds good, but no Word of Creation 'True Names'. I know they're hard to get and not THAT powerful, but they take away some of the mystery.

Pallandrome - The Rakshassa is good.

VoidRazor - By Divine Persistant do you mean Divine Metamagic : Persistant Spell? If so, no I don't consider that cheap.. you give up 2 feats and 7 turn attempts for 1 spell to be persistanted for free, it's good, it's effective, but it's not cheap.
Destiny Domain - Granted power? (If something's from a source I haven't listed, you guys'll have to tell me what it does before I can make a decision.)
The two char's both look good, just one question.. how'd the one get a 60th caster level Shapechange? or is that a typo?

BTW, Nice backstories those that've posted them.. Anybody else got a brief background/character outline?

Yep

I'd like to try a pure cleric with the Madness domain (from the Srd), a person who has mastered their insanity and embraced it.

Wow, that's a surprise....wasn't expecting you to go for it, but I'm not complaining. Actually there is a way to do it from the epic hand book (I don't have the draconomicon so I wouldn't know what that feat that you're talking about is) and for how powerful I want the dragon, I obviously want something I can fly on and attack from, but also I don't want one that would just slaughter everything for the party, unless you're planning on sending us against lots and lots of evil creatures of doom then I'll take as big and bad a dragon I can get lol. Also I'll start working on my character tonight, and I'll post him as soon as I have him done. Who knows, a certain Rakshassa might have sold me my holy avenger

lol...I keep digging myself in deeper.

Are dragon PC's appropriate? I'm thinking they might actually be a bit underpowered since their ECL's won't allow much in the way of class levels...but I have to ask.

Right now I have like...five concepts competing for supremecy in my head. One thing that would help to hear too is to what extent "optimizing" you expect/desire. Like, a dragon PC is pretty poor on an optimization scale, but it's pretty cool otherwise! A monk 1/sorceror6/PRC/PRC/PRC etc etc might be optimized and scarily so...but might be less entertaining.

With one high ECL character already submitted, it was looking to me like this might be a game to try a less-than-perfectly-badass epic concept...but I don't wanna do that if the challenges will be as for Board-Optimized Mega Giants.

Anyway, concepts so far:

Monk/sorceror - Asian style concept of the daughter of an illicit mortal/divine tryst, featuring her now striving for a place among the immortals of the Jade Court.

Ranger/Scout/Beastmaster - Feral or quasi-feral human riding and fighting alongside a monstrous dire wolf. Vaguely inspired by...(mumblemononokemumble)... But only kinda!

Wizard/Elemental Savant/?? - Wizard transcended to air elemental; storm queen and conjuration specialist. Lots of weather spells and summons.

Draconic sorceror (or dragon) - Either a sorceror seeking draconic apotheosis through mighty magicks, or a dragon eager to reconnect with its former Prime home.

Warlock artificer - I'd love it if warforged were allowed as races. If not, no biggie. This warlock is the result of intense magical self-experimentation, and he compulsively builds everything from items to constructs, being fascinated by the confluence of magic energy and material objects.

I realize these aren't backgrounds. Just showing you what I'm up against.

I'll winnow these down and get some more details to ya toot sweet!

I say go with the dragon, then you can be my mount lol. Joke joke, but that really would make things easier

 

[Shayuri]

Hahaha...I dunno man. You might not want a Young Adult silver dragon mount with ten class levels, or however the ECL's work.
