They give up their extra skill points for a extra point of essentia. As such, they need no retrofitting to put into my ongoing Greyhawk campaign.Although I've DMed somewhat upwards of 80 sessions this year, that's not true of all of my players. The Incarnate's player has probably only played 20 sessions (once every two weeks), and had been playing the same character for the past three years in the previous campaign - a multiclass wizard/archer. (Ranger 2/Wizard 5/Eldritch Knight 7/Spellsword 1 by the end of the campaign - looks messy, but is quite a simple concept).The campaign returns to the County of Ulek, which I ran a previous game in for a couple of years. Now it's about 5-8 years on, and I can take up the previous plot threads and approach them in new ways.There's a definite Celtic feel to all of this (druids, you know), and Moorcock's second Corum series inspired me to have Fomorians as the chief enemy. My earlier game used them as a brooding threat - I intend to bring them more to the fore this time. Where I differ from standard "giants" fare is that their deformity is caused by invading spirits from another plane. The joy of Magic of Incarnum is it gives me a system to use for these spirits unusual magic (Necrocarnum). Incarnum itself works well with the Gygaxian system of "alignment matters", and the totemist makes more sense than the druid in many ways, as it gains power from magical beasts (often ignored).Cheers!</blockquote>
