[QUOTE="Planesdragon, post: 1009865, member: 11133"] Then the power's badly written, and should be eratted by now. Either that "no con adjustment" line should be tossed out, or a note should be made that modifiers to your host body's CON sore don't change your HP. (You could infer this, btw, from how the power's worded. Since the CON of the victim's body doesn't affect your HP when you move it, spells cast on the new body shouldn't effect YOUR hp. OTOH, spells cast on YOUR body would effect your hp...) Now, all that said... I don't see a problem, in game balance or theory, with allowing a few hp extra from killing bodies. (I'd prefer it to be a specific feat, spell, or power, but I'm ornery.) You'd never be yourself again, and your alignment would certainly be evil--but evil people should be able to gain some power from nefarious acts, or else it doesn't make any sense for them to do the nefarious act. Remember to adjust the character's ECL / CR for an extraordinary ammount of hp. I'd suggest +1 per 20 hp gained this way. And if that doesn't balance the ultra-HP character, just have those that the psion kills this way automatically come back as Revenants or Ghosts. [/QUOTE]
