immortals handbook

Hello Krust!

Hi historian mate!

Happy new year! Unfortunately I have the flu so I am not out celebtrating tonight, but such is life.

First, I wanted to let you know that the 'mercury golem' sounds cool, kind of reminds me of something like the T-1000s of 'Terminator' lore.

Indeed. Its actually one of Simons creations (one of three in the IH) that I have adapted to 3.5 Ed.

Second, I had a couple of questions re: divinity templates:

Fire away mate!

1. You mentioned awhile back that you might reign in some of the numbers for the CRs, and I remember at one point last summer you suggested that 80 quindecillion might be the max, and even said that you had experimented with a CR of 10 to the 214th power (of course, I don't ask this as a practical question per se). Can you shed any light as to where you see this coming out?

As you noted I have really reigned in the CRs. At the moment there are practical applications still in the tens of thousands with the possibility of expansion to infinity.

I could probably come up with a new status or two inbetween my current top rank and infinity (an idea I am toying with) but I just don't see that having any practical application.

2. I was wondering if you could give some sort of rough idea as to how the CRs for the templates break down proportionally (i.e. 20% gifts and feats, 50% hit dice, etc.). I am ultimately hoping to get a rough idea of what one would expect to be the ability score range for a CR XYZ deity, and the extent to which your gifts and feats might affect CR.

This is actually a fundamental part of my divine templates (in a bid to keep things simple); so you'll have to forgive me for not going into details now. But the outline is really fluid and you will have no trouble implementing it.

The templates have overarching similarities; then there are more similarities within various strata of power (Immortals; Sidereals; Eternals etc.); then various individual components as needed.

I'm glad to hear that you've got the epic feats almost worked out, and good luck polishing up the other gifts/feats.

Yeah that all went really quickly once I buried my head in a few books I was able to crank out quite a few in no time at all.

Happy new year to y'all!

Hmm... I was out with the flu this year, as well. I wonder if it has anything to do with a computer transmitted virus? If so, I think we are in real trouble (-; Fortunately I did have a good time despite of my condition.

Hmm... Do you have gifts (or powers) dealing with the fabric of thought patterns in such a way that, for instance if a god decided on changing the basis of mathematics, the fundament on which the science resides is forced to change, and thus forcing the entire cosmos to rediscover the art? This could have interesting consequences (especially when dealing with magic).

Is the handbook out yet? If so where can I find it?

I repeat, is this book out yet?

Yes, there is a power called VERISIMILITUDE that lets you change reality in anyway you want.

Hey Golem mate!

I repeat, is this book out yet?

No. Not yet. Sorry.

Hi Upper_Krust.

Do you have a projection on when your Immortals Handbook will be available? Fortunately, the game I am running just started up, so I won't need it for a little while. But, the more time to plan ...

Hi Upper_Krust.

Hi there BardStephenFox!

Do you have a projection on when your Immortals Handbook will be available?

I think I could have the first pdf ready by the end of the month or thereabouts *touch wood*.

Fortunately, the game I am running just started up, so I won't need it for a little while. But, the more time to plan ...

I'll try and finish it as soon as possible.

We all know he means well, but for some reason I always picture Krusty as being much like the guy in the first panel here when someone asks that question:

That would rock! I suppose I might have a need for it sooner in the game that I play in, but I am not sure how the DM will be handling all of that. Of course, I could propose to him that we use the Immortals Handbook...

Hey Impeesa mate!

Very funny! Cheeky monkey!

I think I could have the first pdf ready by the end of the month or thereabouts *touch wood*.

...of course I didn't say which month.




Only joking.
