Are you allowed to be reprinting all of this material?

Of course, I would like you to! You are a great source for all the info otherwise I have to wait for to much time...

If you're unsure if you can post all the information on these boards, you may write me a personal email. However, I do not think that there is anyone who won't by the book just because he can find some copied text of it on these boards.

If the WotC ninjas attack, I guess a moderator can delete it.....but until then:

Low-light vision: as normal

Sword song: by attuning herself - wearing or holding a particular sword (magical or mundane) for 8 hours a day for a tenday, the sword dancer gains a +2 morale bonus to attacks and damage and a +3 morale bonus to saves for a number of rounds equal to her sword dancer class level plus her Charisma modifier. Only one sword can be attuned at a time. Attuning another sword nullifies the first sword's attunement.

Moonlights: at will, and as a free action, she can create small lights similar to the dancing lights spell. They are under her complete control, but cannot move more than 5 feet from her body. They last a number of rounds equal to her sword dancer class level.

Sword dance: by attuning herself (as with sword song above, including the same sword attuned with that ability) she can use the sword as if it had the dancing property. She can use this ability number of times per day equal to her sword dancer class level.

Mobility: as the feat

Maiden's sword: she gains the ability to craft magic swords as if she had the Craft Magic Arms & Armor feat. This ability only works on her attuned sword, but the magic abilities given to the sword persist even if she attunes herself to a new sword.

Lesser spellsong: she gains the ability to cast any of her 3rd level or lower spells spontaneously as domain spells.

Spring attack: as the feat

Spellsong: as lesser spellsong, except up to 6th level spells are affected.

Sword shield: as a free action, she may command her dancing sword to fight in a defensive manner, taking up to a -5 penalty to attack rolls in order to add the same number (up to +5) to her AC. The changes last until her next action. This ability can be used on only one dancing sword at a time.

Do you really think that the material posted here will be abused?

(I mean used by people who are not willing to buy any of these books.)

Just looking out for the board.

I'm as curious as anyone.

Paladin, I saw the book but I didn't get to read much of it.

About the Dead gods, was Aumator mentioned and was there any info there about Orcus, since I noticed on page 220 (I made sure to memorize that page!

), he's a lesser monster god.

You're right. I forgot that drow have only darkvision. They have no low-light vision. I'm wondering if there is a situation in which low-light vision is superior to darkvision.

Well, if you want to see in color, or if you want to see more than 60 feet and have a method of doing so...

The Sword Dancer is really a Fighter/Cleric type. I wonder if a Sword Dancer has enough time to cast all his spells. Surely, she would swing her sword for most of the times.

There are two things I am curious about:

1) The (lesser) spellsong ability (which we already know from the 2ed Eilistraee Speciality Priest) seems to be very powerful. Being able to cast any spell freely! "As a domain spells" means substituting a memorized domain spell, doesn't it?

2.) How often can the Sword Song ability being used? As far as I understand it, a Sword is attuned only once.

Amaunator is mentioned briefly in the Dead Gods paragraph, it just says, "(a Netherese sun god)". Not much info on Orcus other than:

Name (Status): Orcus (L)
Alignment: CE
Favored Weapon: Mace
Domains: Chaos, Death, Evil, Undeath
Symbol: Skull-topped wand
Portfolios: Undead
Worshipped By: Cultists, death worshippers

And he's briefly mentioned in a sidebar on page 6, "Worshipping Fiends".

(1) Yes, you substitute any spell up to 3rd level (later 6th) as a domain spell spontaneously (just like cure spells). So, it's not really that powerful, just gives you a bit more versatility.
(2) One sword at a time. You can attune another sword, but the second you do, the first sword loses it's attunement. You can re-attune the first sword later though.
