Yes, there are: Biological Concepts (a thread to keep my real and fantastic biological concepts for any game but the examples mentioned are my Mutant Future creations) When I started playing around with reciprocal hybrids, I wondered why no one else had. It isn't like mule/hinny and tion/liger...

Heterosis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Half orcs are usually weaker than orcs and dumber than humans, which is the exact opposite of hybrid vigor. But hybrid vigor only exists for a generation or three and then there is a slow decline (to what point is dependant on the parent species)...

The only thing that I liked in BoVD was the cancer mage. I mixed that idea with grafts and came up with pets that can merge with their masters. From leech creatures that act as gills to fungi that cover the skin and provide immunity to (heat, cold, acid, aging, whatever). The difference from...

One thing that frustrated me about Lords of Madness was the lack of information on skum (like the process that induces the changes from human to fishman) and what other creations aboleth keep around as pets and warriors. So I came up with a few of my own-dwarves become something like beavers...

The problem is controlling them. Using magic/psionics is best (obviously) but crude chemical methods may work as well. I just created a new race that subverts this trope (again on Epidemic's forum). It is a large, nomadic road runner that herds plants. It is also very much a slave to a species...

Something I forgot was humans. Dragons and other supercritters keeping humans as pets, livestock and for other uses (like magic and psionic research). I even came up with the lab human- little intelligence and can bud to increase reproduction rate. What would make a good pet for a cloaker...

Dragon 357 had 2 dogs bred by green dragons and duergar and 2 raptors bred by drow and beholders (the latter could reflect rays). I really liked the idea of dragons breeding monsters and used giant ants and termites, bats, giant cockroaches, various fungal beasts and worms. A character would...

And some science fiction templates. Chemosynthetic Drug Specialist (uses chems to enhance self) Host Mental Mimic (can telepathically study other cultures and species) Nanite Infested Pharm Survivor (works in hostile environments) Uplift Vat Brain (for grid use) Wanderer of the Stars (FTL...

Funny I own both of those (plus Bodies and Souls, Template Troves 1-3 and Flock of Foes) and I tried to avoid those ideas. 4D is meant to be for critters that can move in both 4th dimentions (something the mindbender can't do). Blind beholder has no functional eyes and has adapted its magic in...

Just a list of template ideas that I have not seen developed elsewhere. 4D Aboleth Survivors/Creations Alchemical Flesh (grafts) Alternate Material Elemental (brine, smog, searing flesh, mud) Blind Beholder Bloodless (removes need for air and sleep) Canny (animals, plants and vermin only, INT...

Bastion Press' Fairies has stats for her, but I don't remember if it has a description of the diamond.

I have vs Monsters and its 2 supplements and one post apocalyptic setting (from rpgnow and I can't find it at the moment). I never bothered with vs Outlaws or Pirates because I am not interested in either genre. I also have the vsM SRD and did try to write a few settings. The only one that came...

Who mentioned theft? You did: By not buying something and yet getting the content form an "alternate source", it is called theft. It doesn't matter if you copy a friend's book or download from a torrent, it is stealing. And again, where are you getting the doubling in size? There isn't two...

So you would steal it. Nice of you. And I doubt adding two or three rules such as the d16, the 2d10 in place of d20, multiples of d8 for d20 modifier dice, optional rank benefits and such would double the size of the book. It isn't like there would be an entire d20 section to it (the idea is a...

Not really. Steam & Steel and Mechamancy (the other tech books from EN Pub) are much more steampunk in feel. TFS doesn't allow non-technologists to use the devices in the book. As for my opinion- I like the idea of anachronistic technology and social dystopia but not the Victorian Britain vibe...

How about this. Use the existing engine in the clone and then provide optional rules for those who want to make changes? Makes everyone happy.

That is what you get for not reading the thread. The existing rank benefits aren't affected. Optional rank benefits are new abilities.

I have been overthinking this. I plan on having full prices for the weapon qualities (one for each slam the construct has) and 150% price for armor qualities (since it is adding a quality to a non-existant item).

Who says they do the same thing? Did you read the link I posted?

Never had an interest in silly GW. I like mine to be deadly, alien and fun in a "run away, run away!" vein. The 7th edition doesn't interest me at all. Adamant is releasing Warlords of the Apocalypse in December- a Pathfinder PA game similar to GW. Though with all the work that I have done on...
