Custom divine abilities, portfolios, etc.

[Beefermatic]

I will formalize only the Cosmic Ability canon in my setting without making it targetable by Abrogate to maintain the spirit and purpose of the ability. Eventually the Transcendental and Omnific Abilities I will give them as a unique ability to some monster or NPC.

I think that's legit, some DMs use all the resources presented here, some none, some go strictly by the book, some go with the tweaks and modifications people like you and I have presented here for what works in our campaigns. I say go for it. It's a solid power list, I think it's too strong, but not unusably so. I hope it works out, lmk how it pans out in campaign, I'm curious.

As a unique power for certain monsters I like it. That sounds incredibly annoying to fight lol.

Oh but don't think Dimensional Heaven is 100% safe. I have already thought about the flora and fauna of the place. I thought of a giant centipede entity / anomaly monster (I have yet to decide) predator that has Dimensional Heaven but in reverse. It normally lives in Dimensional Heaven but uses the ability rounds to descend to the normal world to hunt. If you use Dimensional Heaven there is a very small d% that you will find one in front of you .... or a nest.

Sort of like a Cosmic version of Etherealness?

More like a Cosmic Phase Spider

I meant that Etherealness can cause you to run afoul of ethereal filchers, ethereal marauders, demons, and other beings who live in the ethereal plane.

Ah, in that case, yes, its like Etherealness.

Wow, I just realized that it can be treated as a whole new dimension/setting. To enter it, either use Dimensional Heaven or permanent portals. While you are in the conventional "world", Dimensional Heaven lets you enter this new "dimension" (universe ?, multiverse?), While when you are inside it with the portals, Dimensional Heaven takes you back to the conventional world for its duration.

I kind of have something like that in my settings, so when you teleport or plane shift you traverse the membrane between dimensions, this place houses entropic forces and timelost beings like atatta and such, you only usually enter it briefly but it can be exploited and many enemy ambushes and such have taken place there. Pretty nasty.

Titanic Fighter [Divine]
Prerequisites: Str or Con 40 and Base attack bonus +40 or monk level 40.
Benefit: You add your virtual size category increase to your size for the purpose of size bonus to CMB and CMD, for ability checks, skill checks and when considering whether a creature's combat maneuver can affect you (such as grab and swallow whole) or whether you can affect them (all of them only if doing so is advantageous to you: eg. this apply against a combat maneuver of an enemy but not to the penalty to fly checks for creatures of bigger size [but this allow to consider yourself bigger for the purpose of high wind effect, even if you do not gain the increase size penalty] or a bull rush check of an ally that try to move you from a dangerous square [but this only if you want to move, otherwise it counts as hostile and applies the increase as if it were an enemy]).
Special: This stack with abilities that increase your size (such as enlarge person or Divine Immensity), that make you consider yourself to be of bigger size (such as Powerful Build or Steel Grappler's Attitude Stance of the Broken Blade school of the Path of War) or that allow you to affect creatures of larger sizes (such as Experience over Body).
Normal: Virtual Size Category does not apply to things modified by size.
I chose to considerate this a Divine Ability because at Cosmic level we have Lord of Maneuves that allow you to influence any size without limit and because with the revisited sistem of Beefermatic (Alternate Size Penalties to Attack and AC past Titanic) the size penalty (or bonus in this case) are more contained. If you don't use the revisited sistem, this ability is Transcendental instead of Divine.

Here's one I was talking to Beefermatic about. He thougut it was cosmic and I thought it was divine. I'm gonna just make it cosmic, but you can change it if you want

Transposition (Cosmic, Su)
Prerequisites: Distant Gaze, 70 cha
Benefit: You can summon a creature anywhere in the same universe to your location. The creature appears anywhere within 100 feet of you, including right next to you. An unwilling target can make a will save (DC 10+ half your HD+ your divine rank + Your charisma modifier,) to negate the effect. Effects that block teleportation (such a Dimensional Anchor and Dimensional Lock) prevent this ability from working.
