[QUOTE="Quetzocoatl, post: 161902, member: 2442"] Its been a while since I've posted anything, so I figured I put this class that I wrote after I got the MotP. Obviously, this is maily an NPC class (unless your playing a Planescape campaign or the like), so no big combat abilities (unless someone comes up with one that fits with the class). I'd like help finding a more defined way to do Peacemaker in game terms. Please comment :).
