Okay, I'll figure out the printing issues. Thanks for all the help.

Back on topic: So Krust, how many levels of divinity are ya gonna have? I know I've asked this a crapload of times before, but it's always changing.

Also, now may be a good time to warn you that I'll be gone and without a computer from the 27th to the 32nd . So don't think I'm dead or anything.

New Spell!

Meteoric Fate
Conjuration
Level: Sor/Wiz 9
Components: V, S, M
Casting Time: Full Round Action
Range: Long
Effect: One meteor careening from the heavens
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: None
This spell can only be cast on the surface of a planet, and not while deep underground. 3d4 rounds after casting the spell, a meteor, summoned by your spell, will careen in to the location designated by you with pinpoint accuracy. The meteor is visible as a glowing, ominous pinpoint of light in the sky for two rounds before impact, warning the target.
The meteor will be approximately one foot in diameter, and has enough mass and velocity to cause 1d20 points of bludgeoning damage per caster level (Maximum 25d20) to any structure it impacts, as well as any creatures within five feet of the point of impact. Creatures who are not affected by the initial impact but are within 40 feet of that point receive 1d8 points of bludgeoning damage per caster level from the shockwave. The spell generally leaves a crater large enough to fill a 10 foot diameter centered on the point of impact.

Material components: A small magnet thrown towards the impact point.

Hi Bjorn mate!

Okay, I'll figure out the printing issues. Thanks for all the help.

Sorry I couldn't be more help mate.

Back on topic: So Krust, how many levels of divinity are ya gonna have?

Mortal: 4
Immortal: 4 (Demigod; Lesser God; Intermediate God; Greater God)
Sidereal: 4
Eternal: 4 (I think, still toying with the Time Lords a bit)
Supernal: 72*

*and no they are not all individually detailed.

I know I've asked this a crapload of times before, but it's always changing.

I can't help it, I am just a whirling dervish of ideas.

Also, now may be a good time to warn you that I'll be gone and without a computer from the 27th to the 32nd . So don't think I'm dead or anything.

Have fun during your hiatus mate.

I have something quite like this in the Immortals Handbook...I call it "Comet" though.

Well I suppose its's better for your mental health that way. So ummm how exactly do they exist? Is it just the rules to extrapolate up to those levels? Also, just out of curiousity, do all those ranks have names, or are they just like "Supernal Level 47?"

And thanks for the good wishes on my vacation.

Hey Bjorn mate!

Well I suppose its's better for your mental health that way.

I went crazy long ago.

So ummm how exactly do they exist?

They think, therefore they are.

Is it just the rules to extrapolate up to those levels?

The Divinity Templates all follow a similar pattern (for simplicities sake) so you can technically reach for infinity.

There are specific abilities that each class receives but after a certain point I found it was much easier to handle diversity through the various divine-cosmic-omnific-etc. gifts (thats why there are so many such powers: 270); and of course not to forget the various Portfolio Templates.

Deities & Demigods unnecessarily complicates and obfuscates the whole idea of divinity which is the last thing you need when roleplaying at very high levels.

Also, just out of curiousity, do all those ranks have names, or are they just like "Supernal Level 47?"

They actually all have names, but if I told you one you could probably work out the rest. Hows that for cryptic.

And thanks for the good wishes on my vacation.

Have a great time mate!

Can i guess??? I mean, given that I have a rough idea of what a Supernal is . . .

Supernal . . . Bi-Supernal . . . Tri-Supernal . . . Quadra-Supernal . . . Penta-Supernal . . . Hexa-Supernal . . . Septa-Supernal . . . Octa-Supernal . . . etc . . .

Did I get it?

Hi Anubis mate!

Of course you can mate!

Oh you think so do you.

Supernal . . . Bi-Supernal . . . Tri-Supernal . . . Quadra-Supernal . . . Penta-Supernal . . . Hexa-Supernal . . . Septa-Supernal . . . Octa-Supernal . . . etc . . .

Did I get it?

Nope, close, but not close enough.

Hi there Paragon!

WHEN?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! When will it be out?!?!?!!?

Shortly after WotC update the System Reference Document with both the Epic Level Handbook and Deities & Demigods.

Hopefully that will happen sometime in August...?
