Pick out all the skill based PrC prerequisites that have anything to do with the class ability in question.  [Craft sounds like a big one for this ability, but also Knowledge (_?_)]  Make the ability a feat with skill checks equal to ability level from #1 plus 3.  3. Figure out any feats that sound like a legitimate prerequisite.  PrC prerequisites are a great place to start for this one.4. Figure out any class abilities that make sense to have as prerequisites. (if any)Run it by the new DM and have fun.</blockquote>
