Like I said, Planescape is the best source - look at the AD&D 2e Planescape books if you can get your hands on any. Somebody who has a better grasp on the material (eg. Shemeska) could better tell you where to look.

Have them take Leadership once they've got the levels for it, and have all their followers be celestials and outsiders (or lesser-ECL creatures with the celestial template, etc). Theme it as them using breathing life into followers and companions.

"The deity’s Strength, Armor Class, attack bonus, and damage dealt with weapons changes according to the size the deity assumes." The greatest value of the ability is being able to basically get a much higher Strength (+32, from Medium to Colossal; +16 on attacks, and a 30-foot reach) or a...

In the standard D&D cosmology - that is to say, Planescape - angels are a mix of those created through reproductive processes (most likely with chaotic good types), those who form out of the material of the plane itself or directly created by a god or other influence (for "other", there's a...

I'd recommend using Upper_Krust's Ascension ruleset, rather than the SRD divinity rules. It has a tiered system that gets rid of problems like a lesser deity being able to use Alter Reality all the time just because he has a high charisma. http://www.immortalshandbook.com/

I'd go Fighter/Cleric instead, since Fighter/Wizard has to worry about ASF.

Melee Weapon Mastery and Ranged Weapon Mastery both give untyped bonuses and so, given lack of any note to the contrary, stack with whatever other feats or effects or things one might have.

I'll second that.

This one's been done, actually. http://pixelscapes.com/twoflower/pongkombat/

A comment - normally, races with one hit die have it replaced by their first class level...

Actually, I noted it down wrong - mettle (at least for the Hexblade version, which I'm using) is both Fort and Will save effects. I'm thinking of dropping Sudden Strike for ranger-progression spellcasting...

Just think of it as an "archeologist", not an Archeologist. ;) Hmm, there's a good idea. Let me think about it... I've already written up a revised version that replaced Sudden Strike with a somewhat Nethack-y spell list.

That and Use Rope, definitely, now that I'm thinking of it. It already is level + Int, do you mean a boost on top of that?

Is it a bad thing I'm thinking of making a feat that gives 1/day either create food and water, remove curse, or cure light wounds? ;)

Yeah, that's the idea. Archeologists in Nethack get a speed bonus. Archeologists in Nethack also get the "Stealth" intrinsic, though I could see dropping those abilities and just representing it with Hide and Move Silently ranks. My initial thought came from the "I just shoot him" moment...

Social things - diplomacy, honor, etc - can can just as important or more important than outright combat.

Yeah - it's probably fairly safe to let the character use draconic feats in combination with invocations instead of spellcasting, but watch out for ones like Draconic Vigor (heal a bit each time you cast a spell...). All right, didn't spot that ;) Actually, check the hawk. Two talons, a...

I can't recall which one, but I know one of the relatively easily-accessible vestiges in Tome of Magic lets you heal 1 point of ability damage or drain every round.

How does the character have the feat? It requires Draconic Heritage, which itself requires at least one level in sorcerer... Note that some of the draconic feats, generally the ones that have a 'special effect while spellcasting' clause, have Draconic Heritage as a prerequisite, while others...
