Omata, The Bringer Of The Rain And Rainbow

[BOZ]

ok, i know i've asked for all of this before, but if you can help me out then there'll be less that i have to think up on my own.

I think I’m going to make Prisma a telepath, unless I get some input from Omata that sounds better.

for xiraquatl:
Skills: Concentration +16, Knowledge (any three) +9, Listen +16, Search +16, Sense Motive +16, Spellcraft +16, Spot +16, Tumble +14 (plus 225 more skill points) - krish did suggest to give her Knowledge (warfare), and thus i shall.
Feats: Dodge, Improved Initiative, Still Spell (plus 4 more feats)


for sesshiirish (sp):
her skill points will go up significantly (which is very good). she now has 70 skill points (previously 52?); perhaps we can just consider adding a couple of extra skills onto the base elemental (so that her spot and listen won't be weaker than normal)?

also, i think that gives her one extra feat (someone check on this for me please).


anyone care to venture some stats for these Prisma and Drax? we have levels, class, race, and alignment, therefore we need ability scores, skills, feats, and equipment/weapons/possessions. if you have no suggestions, i'll give it a shot on making it up for myself. i have posted above some example stats, but i really don't want to stick with DMG generic stats.

also, feel free to give feats to all four of these NPCs from the alternate BoVD feats thread - it's why we made those up in the first place.

Feats for xiraquatl:

Flyby Attack, Wingover, Iron Will, and Ability Focus (Psionics).

Also, the skill is Knowledge (War), not Knowledge (Warfare).

Good evening Boz, always nice seeing a friendly chubby face online.

Seshiirish looks fine. Not alot of skills points for someone who's equal to a 20 th. level cleric, but thats okay. I never imagined her as a highly skilled individual. Might be fine with many of the "basic" feats, spot / listen. Sense Motive might not be a good idea (since she's basically uninformed of the Prime Material Plane) neither is Diplomacy & Intimidate. I dont even find Knowledge (Religion) a believable skill, taking into consideration her background. Knowledge (Planes) is more likely though, perhaps even Knowledge (Arcane).

duly noted, sir. any other ideas for skills for xira? she certainly does have a lot of points to spread around... i'll come up with some ideas when i get a second to think. anyone else may feel free to chime in with ideas if krish doesn't have any.

yeah, elementals don't get much of a boost on skill points. do you think we should make her even more intelligent? i think i will give her knowlege (planes & arcana) as you suggest, and maybe intimidate as well.
as for the extra feat, she does get one right? am i interpreting that correctly? if so, how about giving her one of our "special" feats from the other thread?


and any thoughts on drax and prisma?

 

[Krishnath]

Hmm... xiraquatl should get Knowledge (Psionics), Knowledge (Arcana), Knowledge (the Planes), Knowledge (Religion), and Knowledge (Dragon Lore), to increase her skill amount.

Also, Elementals get (2+Int mod) x HD+3 skillpoints in 3,5, I suggest you use them. (They also get 1+ (1 per 3HD) feats in 3,5. (As do all monsters, except constructs and oozes).

I found this in the BoVD feat thread that might be usable...

FAITHFUL TO CELESTIAL [BLESSED]
The character pledges his allegiance to a celestial lord. In return for this devotion, he gains a small measure of power.
Benefit: Once per day, while performing an act of good, the character may call upon his celestial patron to add a +1 luck bonus on any one die roll.
Special: Once a character takes this feat, he may not take it again; he may not be the faithful of more than one celestial.

I was looking merely for feats that werent too combat oriented and didn't involve metamagic (since metamagic evolves around combat). This feat actually seemed quite good & colorful. And Seshiirish is a believer after all

how's 'dis then:

Skills: Concentration +34, Knowledge (arcana) +18, Knowledge (dragon lore) +26, Knowledge (the planes) +20, Knowledge (psionics) +26, Knowledge (religion) +20, Knowledge (war) +26, Listen +33, Search +33, Sense Motive +33, Spellcraft +33, Spot +33, Tumble +31


Edit: do you have a projection for Xira's CR? Sesh's for that matter?

 

[BOZ]

excellent clay, excellent...

now all we have to do is finish up the psionic cultists, drax and prisma. hope to do that tomorrow...

then we're DONE with omata!

 

[Krishnath]

Xiraquatl's CR is roughly 21.

ok, according to page 120 in the PsiHB, we can start Drax off with the following, although we can feel free to modify this to suit our needs (making him too generic is boring!):

Str 16, Dex 13, Con 14, Int 10, Wis 12, Cha 8 - this allows for an additional "power up" at character level 8, 12, and 16 (all of which he has achieved due to his slayer class).
HD: 6d8+12 (con) = 42 hp
Skills: Climb +5, Stabilize Self +11 - also needs 4 ranks in Wilderness Lore and 1 in Knowledge (illithid lore) to qualify for a slayer
11 Power Points, Powers: 3/3/2
Feats: Power Attack, Psionic Weapon, Weapon Focus (longsword), Deep Impact, Cleave, Weapon Specialization (longsword), Speed of Thought - although we would need to replace one of those with Track for him to be a Slayer.
Class Features: mind thrust, empty mind, id insinuation
Armor +1 full plate, large steel shield
Masterwork longsword
Mighty masterwork compostite longbow (Str 16)
Psionic Tattoos: 1 elfsight, 1 call weaponry, 6 lesser body adjustment, 2 body adjustment, 1 displacement, 2 chameleon

that is, of course, before we add his slayer prestige levels!

let's flesh him out a bit, eh? i'll post some starting stats for prisma in a few minutes.
