[QUOTE="Drowbane, post: 2989943, member: 23396"] [b]Of Warforged[/b] Very cool! The following are a few character concepts that I came up with for an Eberron campaign, that was going to be at level 5, a few months back. Unfortunately the campaign was nixed in favor of the DM having time enough to do homework... he had 2 or 3 other campaigns already going so its very understandable. 1) Animus - Soulforged A few months ago I designed a Warforged who was destroyed during the Mourning and then reanimated with incarnum energy becoming what I dubbed a "Soulforged". Warforged Incarnate (Chaos) 5. Animus, which started as just a nickname, would have likely ended up as a Necrocarnate. He was going to talk like the Archons from Starcraft. :D Animus is an example of a character concept I've held on to for want of Gestalt. Ideally, Animus would be a Warforged Incarnate/Necrocarnate | Warlock. 2) Havoc - Warforged The character I went with. We played exactly one session before the DM realized he was overloaded on time. RP wise, Animus or Legion would've been cooler... but the party needed a Tank and I was the last one to submit a PC. Havoc, in brief Warforged Barbarian (variants: Whirling Frenzy, and Boar-totem - both from UA) 1 / Fighter (variants: Subclasses levels from races of E) 4. At lvl 6 I think he was going to be capable of 6 attacks (Off the top of my head, I'm sure to forget some bonuses somewhere... Frenzy - Falchion +10/+10/+5 2d4+9 and Slam +5/+5 1d4 +5 and Bite +5 1d6 +3...or +5?) Add in an decently high AC and high HP. :D 3) Legion - Psiforged (without the lameass feat) Legion's concept was to redefine the term "Tank" in RPGs. High AC, High HP, and long range fire-power. Legion Warforged Psion 5 (Shaper) Feats: Adamantine Body, Overchannel, Psy-crystal, and Talented with Expanded Knowledge: Energy Missile coming at 6th. Powers known: Astral Construct, Mind thrust, Vigor, Energy Missile (6th), Share Pain, Time Hop and... Energy Burst or Energy Retort (again, just off the top of my head...). 4) Onslaught - Uberforged? Onslaught was originally a "what if" concept that came up between myself and another player involving an amalgam of Havoc and Legion... I'm currently playing Onslaught in a Gestalt - Shackled City campaign. So far he is holding his own in the party where all the other PCs have LA templates and/or races built into one half of thier Gestalt builds. (Example: 1/2 Dragon Fighter 2 | Rogue 5). Half the time I forget about his Frenzy. [/QUOTE]
