[QUOTE="Binder Fred, post: 6035803, member: 63746"] They are all from the Expanded Psionics Handbook (EPH) and are all, indeed, available on the SRD. I've also listed a short description of what they do on my character sheet. Correct. (It's listed in the post title :)). Correct. Swift. Corrected. Done. Uh, well, actually, the [URL="http://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Quicken_Spell"]SRD[/URL] says: "Casting a quickened spell is a free action." Doesn't make much difference for spells, actually, but as most psionic powers are either Swifts or can be made into Swifts (even without the Quicken Power Feat), Quicken Power as a Swift instead of a Free would therefore actually be a big deal.... Ruling? Roaring is a +1 Armor property from the MIC (p.14) which I added to the <checks> *Bracers* of Armor component of Ur's Torc of Dragon Scales. It gives +4 competence bonus to initiative and auto return of non-magical range weapons that do 10 dam or less (took it almost entirely for the ini bonus, though I guess the second part *could* be useful if we ever face a massed army of commoners :)). So the Torc is built from Bracers of Armor +3 (Roaring), an Amulet of Natural Armor +3 and a Ring of Protection +4. Torcs are and remain strong items of protection, but I could always swap my Bracers of Mighty Fists (originally an Amulet, if that makes sense to you) for the Torc if "appropriate Slots" poses a problem? I just love the look of the scaled metal torc around his neck with the two tiny dragon heads at his collar bone. :) MIC p.96. X1.5 dam for a single spell/power (Energy Burst in this case). I kept the name as I liked the religious connotation of the originally proposed Divine Might item, ditched the nixed custom aspects of it, as agreed. As for the slot thing, what if I shape it in the form of long string of prayer beads he wears wrapped around his waist? The "beltpouch" is his Bag of Holding I. He just happens to wear it at his belt. :) Will work on working in the added cost of the Wis in the Belt and the Regeneration on the Earrings (though why a ring is appropriate for Regeneration and an earring isn't beats the heck out of me... Ah well.). [/QUOTE]
