It doesn't even work against energy damage. Someone with just that level of damage reduction could still be hurt by flaming oil unless they have some other form of protection.

Don't you love d20.

As to the specific adjudication of the power it would likely be better served by manking it damage reduction + energy resistance (Infinite/Extradimensional) as well. The power's bearer is the Father of all Elementals after all.

Indeed, the complexity is both a boon and a burden.
Instead of damage reduction / energy resistance, you could just say it is invulnerable within its own universe (vs spell effects) and immune to all damage (from melee combatents) from this universe. I would imagine with out the proper ability/powerkey/whatnot a mage from dimention 1 casting spells while in dimention 2 would have to follow all the 'rules' for casting in that universe, and thus his magic would draw from that universe's power, making said creature immune.
But then you are classifying spell effects as matter, and that leads to a minor conundrum - Can I disintigrate a fireball? It says 10' cube of matter right?
Perhaps the ability should read simply (since you are a primal entity of matter and all) "That you are completely immune to all physical damage originating from your home universe or from creatures that originated there."
EDIT: What about anti-matter?

Abiding, what is it?

I just had to ask cuz that was the Night Dragons ability.

What does it do, how does it function. What benefits does it bestow.

Actually immortals are all immune to natural 'effects'.

So an immortal could exist in space or at the centre of the sun and would be unaffected by an animal's poisonous bite. But could still be affected by magical fire or a medusa's (supernatural creature) poisonous bite.

So an immortal could drink flaming oil with no adverse affect. ;)

Sidereals kick that up a notch in that they are unaffected by non-epic magic or effects.

By the way I just have a few paragraphs I need to tweak and I will send you the first stuff. Too late tonight but definately sometime tomorrow. ;)
 

Hey dante dude! :)

Abiding is the same as permanent damage. The term is a hangover from an old nomenclature I used for one of the cosmic powers...Abiding [Effect].

I hate to think what you will do with the Anti-Matter Creature, Awim (Half-Dragon Abomination), Cimerial (King Wight), Lha (Teacher), Gamaliel (Unclean One) Templates in the Epic Bestiary: Volume 2. :lol:

As long as you can still use the Macrobe template with those...:]
 

U_K!
Just a quick question. (It may have been answered much earlier, but I dont remember seeing it) An Immortal is limited to 4 artifacts at once (possibly more, but with downgraded powerlevels) does this mean the Immortal can have/wield/use 4 artifacts or that he or she can create 4? Is there anything preventing a deity from having 5+ artifacts at once (possibly creating some/all of them himself) but leaving some 'at home' or simply keeping them on his person but not used? (Like keeping a magic sword at your side, or having a ring of total-damage-reflection in your pocket while your wear your four rings of Omni-death)
