Are they a template? How do their abilities function outside of Dead Magic areas? Do they have a challenge rating increase? :) I kinda like the concept of them.
 

They are not really described as being superior to normal creatures except that they can use magic within their own dead-magic area. I'd say their CR is about +36. My reasoning: In Ascension, the Double Magic Portfolio Ultimate power lets you use magic in a Dead-Magic Zone; This is akin to a Transcendent power. This +36 seems about right; Even a low epic character (Level 30) could have difficulty with and Iron Golem or two if they found their magic weapons and buff spells didn't work either. (And their defenses against it's potentially deadly breath weapon would be lower)

I should note that the +36 seems like it should be subject to the Golden rule in CRs (and the silver rule if it still exists in V6). A CR 5 Skeleton or mummy just isn't CR 40 with this power. But a level 20 Lich would probably be close to CR 40-50 with it.

Hmm, a Forgotten Demi-Lich... That just sounds... Evil.
 

Still, how do they acquire this ability and what is it reliant upon. Does it work outside of the Dead Magic zone, or do they lose their powers around magic?
 

Hey guys! :)

I updated last night about midnightish (my time) but I only got the last of the emailed copies away this afternoon, I slept in today a few hours more than I expected, although thats because I only had 5 hours sleep the previous day (when you work nightshift, on your first day off you have to deprive yourself of sleep to get a normal sleeping pattern back) and stayed up to after 1am online.

Tables are still off.

Man, it's been a REAL LONG TIME for these kinds of mistakes to still be around.

Damnation - which ones - I'll go fix them right away. You mean the listed prereqs for the abilities - is that what you mean? If so I can't fit all the prereqs into the tables, so I just list the main prereqs, but its possible I could have missed some.
 

As far as a typo I have noticed: the Regeneration divine ability still has the Copy-Paste 'combine music' crap.

Also the divine ability Forked Tongue makes reference in it's description to being a Free action, and then later, a Swift action.

Otherwise, the only thing I noticed as 'off' in the abilities section were some of the images need to have their edges cleaned. (There is a darkening around the edges that makes the image boundaries apparent)
