[QUOTE="ZR, post: 931802, member: 4229"] In my campain we have not introduced psionics yet. I wanted to bring in a psion char who represented something different to the choices offered with magic. I think a "shaper" could be very interesting but this would greatly depend on how some of the rules are taken (for your reference it will be a 14th level shaper in the game). Some points that I would like comments on: FABRICATE: I can see this as possibley a very powerful power 1/ I see "fabricate" possibly offering an ability like that used by "magnus" in X-men but this depends on how the appearance of 1cubic yard/level is played. For example could a fabricated ladder be made to grow up from the ground lifting the char? 2/ What about building a wall arround someone? a cage? encase a person in a cocoon with stone etc etc.. 3/ causing a 1cubic yard bolder per round to fabricate form the roof above someone. If metal a giant blade. FABRICATE + VERY HIGH CRAFT SCORES This brings up lots of possibilities 4/ OK so I have a craft skill in weaponsmith >20 so I can make composit longbows +4 st easily. Can I make masterwork with fabricate? 5/ Can I make only 1 item with the spell? If you can make more than 1 a singular psion could almost equip an army. 6/ giving your construct VII a giant masterwork weapon would be nasty 7/ Is not a shapper going to be very rich? If a 14th level char can produce 140 cubic yards with greater fabricate they can actualy build a large ship. I think a high level shaper with a variety of crafts is a 1 man merchant quild. ASTRAL CONSTRUCT + VERY HIGH CRAFT SCORES 8/ this is cool 9/ with persistant power I think a psion would have no need to hire any guards. 10/ Any IDEAS?? ECTO PUPPET 11/ this is a crazy power for 2nd level. Do you attack with the constructs scores? 12/ can you use the constructs psionic abilities? I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY IDEAS!!! [/QUOTE]
