immortals handbook

Hi Necropolis mate!

Hi cool two new product on high level play i don't mind getting all of the products out there as long as they will be good products and i am know that they will be

More the merrier as far as I am concerned.

High-level play has such a bad reputation (and wrongly so) that I feel it is almost my duty to

anyway u_k are you going to detail strongholds or how to build strongholds for high level players ?

Well if you mean Immortal strongholds (as well as demon/devil etc.) then yes.

This is covered in the Chronicle pdf (the fourth one).

I also have rules for determining (approximately) how many servants/petitioners such realms support.

So say you wanted to create a Demon Lord (for example). You would know the physical parameters of its realm, the number of Demons under its command (of every type) and how many are stationed at its stronghold at any one time etc.

Speaking of sections of the book, What's gonna be in each section?

Also, I hate to be so off topic, and whatnot, but hasn't anyone ever used Kinko's to print stuff of this nature?

Hi all!

Hey there Grum!

...and welcome to the boards.

U_K, do you have creatures like Fenrir, Jormungandr or Kezef in your book?

I have 64 Monsters in the Bestiary section of the Immortals Handbook.

But none of these are technically Pantheon specific. I am saving these for the Immortals Index.

Perhaps you can post them on your website.

If they don't make it into the Immortals Index then absolutely. Though I am sure Fenris; Jormungandr and Garm will be in the Norse Pantheon Chapter of the Immortals Index.

I can´t wait for the IH!

Thanks so much! I appreciate the interest mate.

I have an Overdeity in my campaign and want new ways to stat him! It is a symbiotic being (chosen mortal host and immortal symbiont). Until now, I don´t know how to combine them.

Should be simplicity itself with the IH, all you need do is add the Overgod Template to the Mortal.

Hi Bjorn mate!

Speaking of sections of the book, What's gonna be in each section?

Well...very briefly (I'll save a more extensive preview for the website):

- Apotheosis: Core Rules; Divinity; Portfolios; Gifts (Powers); Iconic PCs

- Grimoire: Magic/Spells; Magic Items/Artifacts

- Bestiary: Monsters

- Chronicle: Realms; Campaigns; Adventures

Also, I hate to be so off topic, and whatnot, but hasn't anyone ever used Kinko's to print stuff of this nature?

I don't know what Kinko's is; though a brief check of Google reveals they are some sort of corporate stationary company who can print your documents out and send them to you.

I guess you would have to review their pricing policy, but I imagine this may well end up doubling the price of the pdfs unless you were buying in bulk.

Are you sure there is nowhere at school that would allow you to print out 20 pages here, 30 pages there?

 

[Bjorn Doneerson]

Nah, besides rules against it, my school is poor, and thusly has crappy computers & printers. I may just print "the essentials" at home and print anything else out as I need it.

Hey Bjorn! I checked, and Kinko's is considerably more expensive than I initially thought - I was remembering the binding cost, which is $3-5, but I wasn't thinking about the printing cost, which is somewhere between $12-25 . At a cost-to-them of roughly $0.03 per page (if it's that high), that's practically robbery.

Sorry for the bad recommendation.

Anyway, they can do book binding pretty cheap, but for printing, I'd recommend going elsewhere. Are you in high school? One option, if your library (or computer science teacher) has a laser printer, is to see if you can provide your own paper and pay a very small fraction of the cost for toner. Depending on where in the US you are, and what quality of paper you want, a 500-page ream should cost you somewhere around $2-6; and most toner cartridges cost about $0.01-0.02 per page (for about $3-6 for the toner). If the teacher is using something like an HP4100, the toner cost is even lower - somewhere around $0.005 per page.

So:
Upper_Krust's PDF: $8
Decent paper: $3
Toner cover cost: $3-6
Kinko's binding: $3-6
Total: about $17 to $23

If the teacher doesn't care about the toner cost, that's even better. And you could also go without the binding, use a 3-hole punch and a cheap 3-ring binder, and have an uglier but still usable book.

EDIT: Didn't know you had a home printer - that can save you some money, too .

Is Doomstar going to be in the book? I've forgotten.

Second, here's an idea for a chunk of high level 'stuff':

Nil Will
Enchantment
Level: Dunno. Pretty high. Way up there.
Components: V, S, M
Casting time: Full Round Action
Range: Short
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: Yes

The target of this spell automatically fails his next will save.

Material Component: A finely crafted, miniature adamantinium helmet worth 2000 gp, crushed by an adamantium hammer in the casting of the spell.

Hi Bjorn mate!

The cost of printing out your own copy is rather extortionate...spare a thought for me and all the test pages I have needed.

I can't envision what the best solution would be for you mate?

If you have a friend or relative that works in an office/university it might be worth your while asking them if they can help.

Hi Anabstercorian mate!

Well I was thinking of saving him for the web enhancement which has a Psionics theme.

I think you could do 'Nil Will' at 9th-level maybe. I like the name by the way.

Hey hey!

That's actually probably a very good idea.

Thanks! I rather liked it too. ^_^
