But the Epic Level Handbook is more than a mere set of rules for characters above 20th-level. Its actually a philosophical "Pandora's Box" that opens to infinite possibilities...Personally I think Deity Level play has a lot more to offer high level (20+) gaming (particularly the worshipper "Achilles Heel" that adds a whole new dimension); but I see no reason why Epic and Deity Level play couldn't co-exist; in fact I would advocate just that!Hi Plane Sailing! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Over on the WotC Boards in the Deities & Demigods Forum there is a thread about ascension with a few posts from Rich Redman (co-author of D&Dg) himself. Although it doesn't give much more than an overview.<a href="http://boards.wizards.com/rpg/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=222;t=000115" target="_blank">http://boards.wizards.com/rpg/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=222;t=000115</a></blockquote>
