[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 9896763, member: 326"] Well its only been 7 years in the making...imagine what I could do with another seven years amigo. :p Working on the epic spells chapter and I was thinking well if spellcasters are capped at Level 20 in 5e, how exactly can we 'model' the likes of Mordenkainen and Elminster, etc. Today it just hit me that I can simply overlap Divinity with Spellcaster Age, meaning 300 year old Mordenkainen would be effectively Divine Rank 2 (CR 20), Elminster at over 1000 years old, would be equivalent to Divine Rank 3 (CR 24). But given they do not court worship I created a quick table for how to apply a sort of generic Wizard template based on age (rather than necessarily need to get your hand's dirty with Divine Boons and Purviews). Of course, this being me I took things to extreme levels, so you have everything from Atlantean/Antediluvian casters, to casters from the beginning of time, casters who exist when all stars have burnt out and even casters who exist after all Black Holes have dissipated...and then a few beyond that for good measure. I don't have space to detail these characters beyond the table itself, but I am sure I will get to it in a future book. [/QUOTE]
