They're not ready for primetime...but any questions and comments are welcome. I have two concepts, both warlocks. One is an ancient tool of pyrrhic vengeance; a sentient doomsday machine of magic and technology unleashed on one ancient empire by another as it fell.Omega has two things in its favor: firepower and durability. It hasn't got much fluffy noncombat abilities or skills. With 2 blasts per turn doing 16d6 each, Omega outputs the equivalent of a Meteor Swarm every turn that it can take a full attack. It cannot be fooled by illusion or concealment. It can fly, and engage in combat while completely invisible. It doesn't feel hunger, thirst, or fatigue. And it absolutely will not stop...ever...until your species is dead.Damage reduction, spell resistance, and a mithril buckler that repulses anything that requires a ranged attack roll all spell serious defenses. Melee is Omega's weak spot...and it is quite effective at avoiding it.[sblock=Omega]Name: OmegaRace: WarforgedClass/Level: Warlock 30Exp: Desc: KhachaturianStrength (STR) 10Dexterity (DEX)    18 + 4 inherent + 6 enh = 28Constitution (CON) 20 +4 inh + 6 enh = 30Intelligence (INT) 10Wisdom (WIS) 16 - 2 race = +4 inherent = 18Charisma (CHA) 18 -2 race + 7 level + 5 inherent + 8 enh = 36Alignment: Chaotic NeutralAC: 44 (10 +6 dex +10 armor +6 shield +5 deflection, +5 natural +2 insight), Flatfoot 37, Touch 23Hit Points: 397Movement: 30' (30' flight, Good)Init: +9Base Attack Bonus: +20/+15/+10Melee Attack: +20/+15/+10Ranged Attack: +29/+24/+19Fort: +28 (+6 base +8 resist +10 Con + 5 epic)Reflex: +30 (+6 base +8 resist +9 dex + 5 epic +2 insight)Will: +29 (+12 base +8 resist + 4 Wis + 5 epic)Race AbilitiesConstruct type, living subtypeimmune to poison, disease, nausea, fatigue, exhaustion, effects that cause the sickened condition, and energy drain.

This character is more personable, more "flexible" in terms of powers and skills, but pays for it with a reduction in firepower and durability. Blast is down to 14d6 (x2), though she has some powers other than blasts to toss now too. DR is actually higher, but hit points are down and, crucially, the protection against ranged attacks is gone. Ironically, this could mean I'll take Hideous Blow and have the pixie specialize more in short-range and melee combat...using superior mobility to freely switch things up.Pixie is more fragile, but...unlike Omega...can be healed magically, so there's that too.[sblock=Pixie Power!]Name: SomethingRace: PixieClass/Level: Warlock 26Exp: Desc: KhachaturianStrength (STR) 6Dexterity (DEX)    26 + 4 inherent + 6 enh = 36Constitution (CON) 18 +4 inh + 6 enh = 28Intelligence (INT) 16Wisdom (WIS) 16 + 4 race +4 inherent = 24Charisma (CHA) 18 +6 race + 6 level + 4 inherent + 8 enh = 42Alignment: Chaotic NeutralAC: 45 (10 +13 dex +8 armor +5 deflection, +6 natural +2 insight + 1 size), Flatfoot 31, Touch 31Hit Points: 26d6 + 240Movement: 20' (60' flight, Good)Init: +13Base Attack Bonus: +18/+13/+8Melee Attack: +16/+11/+6Ranged Attack: +32/+27/+22Fort: +27 (+6 base +8 resist +9 Con + 3 epic)Reflex: +32 (+6 base +8 resist +13 dex + 3 epic +2 insight)Will: +30 (+12 base +8 resist + 7 Wis + 3 epic)Race Abilities•-4 Strength, +8 Dexterity, +6 Intelligence, +4 Wisdom, +6 Charisma.•Small size. +1 bonus to Armor Class, +1 bonus on attack rolls, +4 bonus on Hide checks, -4 penalty on grapple checks, lifting and carrying limits ¾ those of Medium characters.•A pixie’s base land speed is 20 feet.
