IN.... SPACE!   <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":-)" title="Smile    :-)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":-)" />As for ones I ain't keen on or have issues with:Divine Right: Maybe this'll work better in game with the other Immortals stuff, but I really don't like the idea of a cleric of one god getting more benefit out of a feat than another not because of stat arrangement, or weapon choice, or spells memorized.... but because of a stat of the gods like Divine Rank.  Um, my cleric of Thor gets more use out of this feat than the cleric of Apep /why/, exactly?  The idea is funky, but it seems to focus on a stat which otherwise shouldn't affect PCs as a deciding factor on it's import.  Egg-Born: I know at least one PC who would have liked this and all, but it just seems a hell of a weird thing to spend a feat on.Improved Toughness: Just because it's kinda redundant for those people who are using the similar Improved Toughness feat WotC came out with, and non-epic too. Weapon Abatement: Is this supposed to duplicate a specific power of a deity or something?  Because it just does nothing for me.  Would it apply to magic spells that use attack rolls?  I dunno, it just seems more like a funky spell or magic item than a feat thin.Wishful Thinking: as mentioned elsewhere, it's just not going to work.</blockquote>
