[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 4391920, member: 326"] Howdy! :) Both, although that depends on how you gain QP. At the moment it may be prudent to have three mini-adventures. Divine Spark, Portfolio, Pantheon. It makes more game sense to advance at the same rate as the core levels 1-30. At the end of the quest the character could be 31st-level (ie. 1st-level Immortal) You gain portfolios as follows. 1st Portfolio: 31-35 2nd Portfolio: 36-40 3rd portfolio 41-45 Fourth Portfolio: 46-50 The Pantheon Pledge would be taken at levels 31-40. I am unsure yet if this will replace your Paragon Path or work in tandem with it. Between 41-50 you would join an Immortal Organisation and gain additional powers from that, which may, or may not replace your epic destiny. At 51st-level you no longer ascend in level by Portfolio but instead by Dimension. I am not sure if this tier will have something akin to a Paragon Path. Thats to be decided. There are no classes beyond 30th. Only Portfolios. There are no portfolios beyond 50th, only dimensions. There are no divine/cosmic abilities (as such). You gain powers based on which Portfolio(s) you take. These powers will be the defacto Divine/Cosmic Abilities. If you wanted you could say that the Encounter Powers were Divine and the Cosmic Powers were Daily then that might be a fair appraisal. Not sure yet. Certainly artifacts take up a bit more room in 4E. Though they don't need to be detailed as artifacts when in the possession of the god themself. Take the Wand of Orcus for example. In the Orcus entry its pretty basic. But if you were writing it up as an artifact you would expect to give it more powers (some of which Orcus may already have by default and thus they are not listed in his entry under the Wand) and details. There are a lot of things I am still trying to pin down, notably with regards size. I'm currently working with a system that has three new size multipliers (lets call them Mega, Giga and Tera). Mega would be a x10 multiplier for the Exalted Tier. ie. If I wanted to fight Godzilla he'll be Mega-Gargantuan and in the Exalted Tier - Solo 40 probably. Giga would be a x1000 multiplier for the Immortal Tier. ie. Monsters like Jormungandr, Typhon and so forth. Monsters that have something akin to the mass of a Mountain. Tera would be a x1,000,000 multiplier for the Sidereal Tier. ie. planet devouring monsters like the Alklha. By default, I'll be statting out the main entries as Solo Monsters. A main entry would be a primary deity entry in a book. A secondary entry could be for a demigod or quasi-deity acting as the Primary Deity's Exarch or something like that. So I might stat Primary Deity as a Solo Monster of Level 36 and a Secondary deity/Exarch (under the same main entry) as an Elite Monster of Level 31. Of course in some cases the Primary entry could be a Demigod or Quasi-deity, in which case the secobndary entry may be appropriately weaker. [/QUOTE]
