[QUOTE="Magic Slim, post: 1147947, member: 13870"] Well you don'T really need Savage Species for a half-celestial (or for any template, in fact), you just need the ECL. Seems the official ECL is 4. This means that a first level Half Celestial Elven Fighter = 5th level character. a) Take your 1st level elven fighter b) determine if he has wings (75% chance) c) He gets +1 to his natural armor d) he gets [i]Light[/i] at will e) If his int or wis is 8 or higher, he will have special powers (see page 213 of the MM) f) He gains low-light vision (which doesn't do him any good since an elf already has LLV) g) He gains immunity to Acid, Cold, Disease and Electricity. h) He gains a +4 racial bonus to Fortitude saves against Poison i) His saves do not change (ie he has the saves of a 1st level fighter) j) His abilities increase as such: Str +4 Dex +2 Con +4 Int +2 Wis +4 Cha +4 k) His skills don't change. He has the skills of a first level fighter (ie (2 + int mod)X4 skill points) l) He gets the normal feats for a 1st level elven fighter, ie feat for level 1 and feat for fighter level 1. m) his type changes to Outsider, which means some spells don't affect him (charm / hold person) but some do (protection from good). Also, he can't be raised. Now, this 1st level half-celestial elven fighter has 10,000XP and needs 5,000XP to attain level 2. He only has 10+Con mod HP, He only has a BAB of +1 and his base saves are +2 +0 +0. If you needed to make a 9th level character, you can raise this character to Fighter level 5 (Level 5 + ECL 4 = 9th level character). By raising this character to 5th Fighter level, he'll gain: Skill points for levels 2, 3, 4 and 5 Fighter feat for level 2 and 4 Normal feat for level 3 Stat increase for level 4 BAB for a 5th level fighter Saves for a 5th level fighter etc. Hope this is clear.
