    NEW Immortals Handbook - Ascension thread

    I threw together a "fix this plz" thread. :)

    Upper_Krust: Fix This

    Okay, since people wanted one, I threw the "fix this" thread together. People should post what parts of Ascension need changing. If you have a change, try to list "exactly" where it is. Don't list a feat number or page number, those change, but I think if you list the chapter and the general...

    Deific Status and Virtual Size Categories

    I think U_K was going to throw out the size requirements. As for page 26: Looks like those are after the divinity template modifiers. They are for if you need a 'Deity on the fly'. Good numbers to go by, but you could just "do it yourself" and see how your version compares. :) As for Moradin...

    NEW Immortals Handbook - Ascension thread

    I agree; Ascension, in all its awesomeness, is taking a bit of time. Splitting it up might be the right idea, but as others have said, lots of 'minor' details need to be included. Most of us who have taken a look at Ascension as it has progressed can make some guesswork as to how things work...

    Alignment myths?

    To those who disagree with my alignment reasoning: I don't mean to say that my statements are the definitive correct answer. (far from it) I just don't like players who seem to think Chaotic Neutral and True Neutral let them do anything a Chaotic Evil person would do and 'justify' it under the...

    Immortals Handbook - Epic Bestiary (Epic Monster Discussion)

    They should explode in antimagic, but Golems are specifically called out as being somewhat immune to Antimagic. I don't think the Anti-magic would make the golem explode any more than it would oxidize or rust an Iron golem or Rot a Flesh Golem. A Dead-Magic field, however... :)

    Immortals Handbook - ASCENSION

    Ahh good, these 400 liters of hydrochloric acid won't go to waste then. (Darn inability to rescind bids on E-bay... At least it came "next-day mail") :)

    Whats the biggest group you've DMed for?

    14 people was my record. In an Evil campaign. ARGHHHHHHH! Heck, drop the words "evil campaign" and "Forgotten Realms" in a game store and BAM! Everyone you know who ever played D&D will show up.

    Alignment myths?

    I have found two bits about alignment in third edition that I particularly find ridiculous. (Note: Reasoning is 'sblock'ed; It is not my intention to start another alignment arguement; I am simply stating my opinion and personal experiences with alignment) One I never liked: Chaotic Neutral is...

    Specialty Priest Creation: Spontaneous Casting?

    Yes, prestige classes pretty much do just that. Nothing stops you from writing your own specialty priest base class though. :) There are plenty of Prestige Classes out there, and its pretty easy to convert one to suit your needs if you don't want to make a whole new base class.

    DMG II Statblock - How Is It

    The new Statblock format took a bit of getting used to, but now I daresay I love it. At first I hated it, but WotC did a little article on their site detailing the how and why, and now I must say it is my preferred format for NPCs above 10th level, Dragons, and other Complex monsters. I think...

    Secret Languages..

    Interesting idea; It makes sense and has somewhat simple mechanics. One question, though: What is the minimum "size" for a message? Ex: Instead of saying "Shelter, Water, East" as one message, could I write 3 smaller ones? Wouldn't that make the DC Lower. (But require more skill checks) You...

    Ah, good to know. I guess we'll have to cancel our E-Bay bid for 400 liters of acid...

    Immortals Handbook - ASCENSION

    Nah, you need to chain him to a laptop, and slowly lower him (1 inch per day) into a tank of Hydrochloric Acid. Water won't hurt him, but it will damage the computer, ruining all the work. And I heard drowning isn't so bad. Melting, on the other hand, is.

    Immortals Handbook - ASCENSION

    Well, look at it this way: A lycanthrope doesn't need the starstruck power, but A starstruck creature is even cooler if it turns into a Werewolf. :) It may not make sense as a prerequisite, but wow is it a scary combo.

    Immortals Handbook - ASCENSION

    And what pray tell is wrong with that? :) Nothing makes the horrors from beyond imagination scarier then the ability to, once per month give or take, turn into a hairy horror from beyond imagination with even more teeth. :)

    Immortals Handbook - ASCENSION

    I would say all the incarnations of Sephiroth are about the same. I might give his winged form a few extra ranks, but otherwise, about the same. Meh, Vincent is just a Multi-classed Ranger-Shifter. Jenova might actually be pretty tough, however. :) (Definitely Pseudo-natural) But otherwise...

    Immortals Handbook - ASCENSION

    I wouldn't say the Template powers are overpowered, merely that it is a good idea to take them :). Most of their powers, as already stated, are subsumed by the divinity templates. The ability score modifiers are nice, but a drop in the pond for all but disciples and prophets. Numbers-wise, if...

    Immortals Handbook - ASCENSION

    I'll give my ideas. #2: Arts - on objects of art? Charity - On the poor? Entropy - Those who are near death? Fertility - ??? Peace - On those who carry no weapons? Science - On inventions or Inventors? #3: Destruction - Immune/Reflect Disintegration? (Limited, but other benefits are good)...

    Immortals Handbook - Epic Bestiary (Epic Monster Discussion)

    Heh, with all this controversy, I think I'll hold off on the "Lodestone Golem" :) (Just kind of sounds cool. A golem with Magnetic powers. :) I imagine not epic, but it sure would kick the crap out of Heavy-armor wearers. :)) And as one who tends to play mages quite a bit, I do enjoy building...
