[QUOTE="Aluvial, post: 2832843, member: 6862"] Hi there, I want to design an artifact based on old Greyhawk stuff; mainly a 3.5 version of the Theoparts of Tharizdun. I am going to start with information I've lifted off of Gord's Greyhawk. This is without permission. What I would like to do is start with the [b]second one, the Awakener.[/b] The first thing is a description. So far, I've not read the Gord books, so I'm kind of screwed there. Anyone know what this thing looks like? Anyhow, I like the description of powers given and I want to use them all. I need help with the (?) areas. Theopart 2 The Awakener -The Vitalizer - The Arouser Step 1: Description (?) Step 2: Powers In it's original form (?), the artifact is NUETRAL EVIL, it should always apply temporary level drain to all goods, lawfuls and chaotics. I think 4 levels is appropriate. Locate the third theopart. Bat Like Spiral of Silence (?) -- Perhaps an area of attacking (confusing) silence, perhaps the bats are negative energy, or shadow... Generate gameboard map of the Abyss (?) -- Umm, this is more appropriate in the description, but it is a power. Shielding Web (?) -- Pehaps this could be similar to an Otiluke's Sphere or Wall of Webs??? Withering Stuff (?) -- I haven't seen anything that shreds flesh, but it sounds COOL, perhaps something from the Book of Vile Darkness or maybe a Cone of Disintagrate! This thing changes form into 2 different weapons, the large evil scimitar, and the energy cat 'o nine tails. Both forms are dancing. Step 3: Scimitar Design -- Large, +3 or +4, gives Monkey Grip (which is a -2 to attacks), Evil aligned, additional negative levels when grasped (not when dancing), Red (?) - should be something. Step 4: Whip Design -- +3 or +4, Brilliant Energy, Dancing, Whip or Scourge, plus some other power (?) -- electrical or bane good/lawful/chaotic.... something. Theopart 1 The Initiator Step 1: Description (?) Step 2: Powers Locate the second Theopart Harmonic Retrieval Device (?) -- ??? Shoots Anti-matter (negative energy)!!! (?) -- Again Disintegrate... Wall of Positive Energy (?) Summon Demons (?) -- Type? Number? Illusions (?) -- Obviously high level counterparts Which??? Reverse Spells -- Spell Turning (?) What power/level? Invisible Iron Rack (?) -- What's this for....??? Step 3: Pole Arm/Mace Bonus to disarms, sundering, crush armor!, drains mortals (?) Theopart 3 The Unbinder Step 1: Description Black Cone with horns, sucks light Step 2: Powers Alter time Heal (?) -- How much? I suggest Mass Heal... Promote Demons! (?) -- This is a huge effect... Step 3: Shield (?) I'm going to save combos of the Theoparts until these are designed. Please, any help would be appreciated!!! Aluvial [/QUOTE]
