What is the level adjustment/cr bump for the god-blooded template? Does it depend on the god? Thanks.

EDIT: Oh yeah, one last question...can this template be applied to giants?

 

[helium3]

Thanks for these. It's Mind-Shattering Strike kuo-toan only by any chance?

Yessir.

 

[helium3]

Yeah! And there I go getting all indignant I was going to get stuck with a bunch of templates only usefull on Greyhawk!

Hah hah!! That's what you get for being indignant!!

Thanks for all of the info Helium and Mouseferatu. Before this thread, I really didn't have much interest in another Monster Manual. MMIV was okay, but I thought way too many pages were devoted to spawn of Tiamat. Right now, I have to say that MMV is in the must buy catergory for me. I'm really looking forward to the classed critters and new templates and feats. Lots of people hate classed critters in monster manuals. I liked a good deal of them in MMIV even though many people didn't. You can never have too many fully statted out NPC's. Ideally, a book of humanoid opponents with class levels and templates would be the best way to do this, but it doesn't look like WotC is planning on going that route (unless that's what Exemplars of Evil will be). In the mean time, I'll take what I can get from Dungeon and monster manuals.

I really appreciate all of the information provided in this thread. I'll be picking this up when it comes out. If anyone who already has a copy could answer my post linked below, I would appreciate it even more! Thanks again. I read the whole thread and did not find this already answered...but maybe I just missed it.

Darn...link didn't work, so I'll just cut and paste my previous post...

LA and CR are both +1.

The template can be added to any creature "favored by the god," as defined by the specific deity. For instance, Gruumsh-blooded must be orcs, but Kord-blooded can be any non-evil creature with a Strength of 16 or higher.

So the answer is, essentially, "Sometimes, depending on the god."

Ah....thanks! I'm most curious about Orcus. That happens to be BBEGod in my campaign.

Question for helium3:

The Elemental Magi, what're their HD? Are their abilities similar? What're their ability scores compared to each other? Do they share the same aspects and abilities?

In other words, if I were to creat my homebrew Water Magi, could it be done thoroughly and easily by simply adjusting an existing Elemental Magi or would I have to craft the creature from scratch and use the other magi as guidelines?

Thanks.

(Note, I saw the Art Gallery for the book. Awesome art, but no Water Magi. Here I was hoping it was accidentally/purposely cut from the book and would introduce itself later in errata/web enhancement file if I could spot its artwork in the images. It's happened before, for example, the Fallen template in Fiend Folio had art but the template was cut)
