[QUOTE="Sepulchrave II, post: 896548, member: 4303"] Thanks all, for input:D This, along with the Divine Emissary, has been the topic of much discussion. We've also looked at the 'Transformational' Epic Classes - Acolyte of the Skin, Dragon Disciple, Elemental Savant - as they all grow towards embodying certain principles. I haven't seen it. I'd be interested in taking a peek, though. Way back when, this was considered as a possibility. Its a little too unidimensional, though, and Lombard decided against it. We'd discussed the possibility of advancing in outsider HD too:rolleyes: But 8 skill points is a hell of a lot. BAB and save progressions would be epic, in any case +1/2 levels. I think the idea of breaking it up has great merit - hence the idea of applying the two templates (half-celestial, then quasi-deity) in succession. The two ideas which inspire this whole debate are [I]ascended masters[/I] and [I]living masters[/I]. Ascended masters have already died - they are beatified/canonized upon their death, and they acquire certain powers - namely DvR0 and the Half-Celestial palette of special abilities. Living masters are much rarer - same ZAP, but not dead yet. Obviously, Eadric would fall into this camp. We know [I]where[/I] he has to go, it's just [I]how[/I] he gets there that's the problem. Grodog - your other questions are complicated and I need to think about them.:confused: I see no particular 'limiting factor' though, as far as mortal capabilities are concerned. [/QUOTE]
