[QUOTE="Garthanos, post: 8374300, member: 82504"] Noticed I missed the option of [B]ASI[/B]s as Boons with an open ended 30 achievable. The [B]Mythic Bloodline[/B] concept could almost be expressed as a package of boons at a price. Perhaps they do not need much of a balancing price if you are making a Mythic campaign Let me see if I can get more specific about the flavor [B]Bloodline of Dragons[/B] is sometimes seen as the [B]Kings bloodlines[/B] (in real life many countries have royal lineages whose heritage purports to be that of Dragons, and even the Pendragon line of Arthurian Myth might be seen as invoking that same concept). Dragon Bloodline in a mythic context might have a [B]Boon of Resilience [/B]ie the real reason for Arthurs durability is not his sword sheath... but rather his heritage. [B]Fire Soul [/B]also sounds like a classic European Dragon Bloodline one. [B]The Sleep of Kings[/B] Dragons are often portrayed as Hibernating or engaging in deep sleep so in keeping with the King model you are the once and future ... you have an ability akin to that . It is a way of supercharging your resting ability one might gain a full long rest benefits in a short rests time span once every 7 long rest spans. Furthermore you may sleep for an indefinite duration and you do not age nor do illnesses progress you appear to be basically dead (like feign death?) but are preserved perfectly you can choose any duration and if you are attacked you have a bonus on all saves and do not make saves vs death till you break out of it.(breaking out of it involves?) I sort of conjured TSK on the fly probably not worth it but I like the flavor. [/QUOTE]
