[QUOTE="Samloyal23, post: 5876232, member: 21432"] Just stole this from [URL="http://mydndgame.com/campaign/338/wiki/page,871.1.html"]here[/URL] and started tweaking it. I didn't agree with all the original author's ideas and his list of gods is too short. Also, Athena in my campaign is no longer chaste, having married Hermes upon becoming queen of Olympus. If you have an idea for a god not listed here, feel free to contribute... [B][U]Divine Blood [/U][/B][General] You are the half-mortal offspring of one of the Olympian gods. Artemis, and Hera are not options for divine parentage. (Artemis is a virgin goddess and Hera is the goddess of marital fidelity.) [I]Prerequisites:[/I] Cha 13+, must be a 1st level character, must be from Valora or Irium. [I]Benefit:[/I] You get a +1 racial bonus to Will saves. In addition, depending upon which Olympian's blood flows in your veins, you gain the following extraordinary ability as a benefit: [I]Aphrodite:[/I] +2 on all Charisma based skill checks [I]Apollo:[/I] Permanent endure elements. [I]Ares: [/I]Damage reduction 1. [I]Athena: [/I]You can add your Int modifier to melee attack rolls, in addition to your Str modifier. [I]Demeter:[/I] +4 racial bonus on saving throws against disease and poisons. [I]Dionysus:[/I] +2 bonus on saving throws against drugs and poisons, professional (farmer) and craft (winemaker) are always class skills for you. [I]Hades:[/I] +2 racial bonus on saving throws against necromancy spells or to resist ability score loss. [I]Hecate:[/I] +2 racial bonus on saving throws against spells or spell-like abilities. [I]Hephaestus:[/I] Fire resistance 3. [I]Hermes: [/I]Permanent know direction. [I]Poseidon:[/I] +2 racial bonus to Swim checks and Handle Animal checks involving horses, cold resistance 3. [I]Zeus:[/I] Electricity and sonic resistance 3. Which other gods should be added to this list? Any titans? Would a god being dead effect the powers of a descendent or is it just in that person's blood? [/QUOTE]
