[QUOTE="Matrixryu, post: 4867868, member: 84553"] Haha, I can only take full credit for the Shifter one there, because Time was already in the Complete Psionic book (even if I was already working on a time/space realm before I got the book) and domination was inspired by a cleric domain available to evil dragon worshiping clerics in the Draconomicon I believe. Yea, I took many of the mantle lists in that book and used them as a base for organizing the powers I had already been designing, and basically doubled the number of powers listed in them (I ended up combining a few mantles to do that). I removed mantles which seemed too psionic or were alignment based (good, evil, law and so on). Other than shifter, I think I can only take full credit for sound, aether, and dimension. The mantles were one of the few things the complete psionic really did right, they had almost everything covered. I put Shifter in because the campaign I'm running is actually based on a story that I'm writing, and the main character's a shifter...so I needed some way to reflect his powers, lol. I had originally been thinking of using the lycantherope classes for shifters, but those take way too long to develop when you're leveling a character. Yea, I had been thinking of making a cold based realm, but I was worried it might be a little limited. Then again, it would only be about as limited as the fire realm, lolz. I took a look at some of those books you guys were recommending, sounds like it definitely would have brought the campaign closer to what I was trying to do, though I can only imagine how hard it would have been to roleplay, lol XD I might still get one though, I'm just iffy about spending more money after buying like 8 books in the past month XD That complete control one though, that's really tempting... Edit: Hmm, I realized a problem. I don't actually own the core book which gives the D&D experience system (it isn't in the SRD so I'm using the free unearthed arcana one instead), so I wouldn't be able to calculate the experience points for your complete control books very easily XD Bah, I wish the used 3.5 core books weren't so expensive. The others were like $10 each. [/QUOTE]
