[QUOTE="dave2008, post: 8653882, member: 83242"] Ok, so pretty much what I quoted from the DMG for divine ranks and very similar to the Great Wyrms in Fizbans. What is your issue then? Personally that is not how I construct my deities. In my cosmos, deities are absolute. It has been way to long since I have study this in any meaningful way so I can't really argue with you. However, when I did, I came to the conclusion a lot of it was bunk and I am sticking to that conclusion. I recently meet a physicist friend for happy hour we he was discussion the competing theories of reality and how we don't have a unifying model. How the current models are actually at odds and can't both be correct (at least not how we currently understand them). I got into him a little bit about time been a false construct, but that is another issue. The point is, the math doesn't work currently. It only works to a point and then breaks apart. I personally don't care to much about the math. I look at it from an energy perspective and an ignorance perspective. If you wish to discuss more I guess you could DM, but I feel I have spent to much tome on this topic already. Again, that is subjective. I don't like the little bit you described, but I'm not likely to invest more into it at this time. I already have lore I like, and a lot of originates from WotC/TSR. I find it very useful myself, though as will all things rpg, I modify it to my needs. That may be how you see it, but that is wrong. As I mentioned in another response, they can't use the Dungeons and Dragons name, logo, or WotC IP with OGL. It is not official, end of story. The can use many of the rules because legally the rules can't be copyrighted. WotC can't control the rules. Like I said, if you want this to be cleared up legally, talk to a publisher or their legal council. Your simply wrong. Now, I personally have no need for "official" WotC content and use 3PP stuff all the time. It is great, but it is not official. I don't care about that though. IMO, the only things that are official are what I use at my table. While I disagree about the brilliance of Jetpack's stuff. The art in the JetPack books I have is great, but I am less enthralled with the stat blocks they come up with. Thought they are better than the "epic" content from WotC. I do own a lot of other 3PP content. Particularly if it is Epic & Immortal D&D stuff as that is really my favorite genre. But I have backed a bunch of KS, and bought a lot of stuff from DMsGuild and DrivethruRPG. [/QUOTE]
