[QUOTE="DamionW, post: 2683319, member: 18649"] Hey Thia! Was wondering if you were going to weigh in... It's what works with the cosmology/dogma of the campaign world. The azers recruit from orc and human barbarians to make Reapers of the Flame (A PrC I'm working on), which are the "guild enforcers"/ assasins of the Fire Realms. Those individuals are very ordered and lawful, but no barbarian is altruistic by nature, a basic precept of being Good. If others want to adapt this concept to other campaigns, they can set the alignment how they want, but non-good will work for me. Same thought here. Nyaricus thought the same, so I'll find a way to put it back in. Well, it's still dependent on their Will save (not a strong suit for them), and pushing the limit results in exhaustion, which carries stiff penalties. Also, the upper cap is twice what their constitution would normally allow. If they push that, they're out of commision for a round, at least. I figure it really balances itself out IMO, but if enough people feel it's broken, I might reconsider. Not sure what builds in my game would allow that (not many rangers turning barbarian, etc.), but I'll allow it. We'll see. Wasn't sure that 10 points wasn't pushing it, so I left it at 3 and 5 Nice ideas. Not sure I'll use them, but still cool. The Inner Flame idea is more a metaphysical concept than an actual "heat" effect as I see it. They see their anger as a source of power, that needs to be fueled and channeled, and they're the furnace. Just made sense to me. As for the windstalker, take a look at the latest post I made to adapt Kisanji's combat styles. I paired his Breeze/Cyclone concepts with some sensible feat chains. Again, I appreciate you taking the time to read all this and post feedback. It's through a concensus of ideas that point out the glaring flaws I miss. [/QUOTE]
