RA, Druids are nice, my wife loves them, but as you said tracking that many spells is just to much work. :) Like reply to your post, I think I hit the highlights. :)

For flavor ? Nymph druid isn't as ofsetted as Nymph-other class. But You tossed in also half-celestial ! Isn't simpler to have Demon Wings permament ?

She originally had the Half-Fiend template, I wanted her trying to very much overcome the vile blood in her system, but the ECL wasn't worth it cause of most of her special abilities being pointless, are darn right harmful to her...

Wrahn, might have a little bit more insight into this as he was helping me with making an 24-hour a day illusion buff item that could hide her true nature… I figured she would looked a lot like Mystique from the X-men movies… A mixture of the Nymph’s unbelievable beauty corrupted by the fiend’s hideous nature.

:] Waiting ! ;)

The newest, and last version is basically done... Mechanical it needs another look over but I need to flush out her deity first.

Note: She looks more like the original write up than I thought she would be... I ended up looking around for something to replace Aerial Avenger but couldn't really find anything that I thought was loyal to the character...

Hospitaler looked good, would have rocked when linked to her druid spell casting but it didn’t seem to work with the deity I have planed… Besides I would still be trying to justify the ride by attack and mounted combat feats to myself right now if I had gone that way.

War Priest, or in this case Priestess, I really liked, I could she her in that PrC all the way to the very end of it but I saw the leadership feat requirement and decided it would be best to go without. (I don’t like to see or make girls cry.)

So she ended up having an assortment of classes and a number of levels in the Holy Liberator. (5 levels)

:) I, personally dislike druids-ecologists, it sounds too silly to me. Priest of nature. Yeah, right. But from the other side ... once, I tried druid, but DM almost exploded when he heard that I want to swap spells for extra transformations and more skills and paladin special abilities.

"Whyyy ???"

"Druid is a priest, right? As I dislike idea of spellcasting priests ... my druid would be mystic warrior/sage sort of neutral paladin."

"You nuts ?!"

Unfortunately during first session critter died, defending all those armored fools so they could retreat ... and later I created my only and favorite wizard, during 2ed, DM enjoyed it as much as I because Rik was casting spells rarely ... and mostly from scrolls/wands for I never bothered myself with keeping components or spellbook. :p

Transition to 3,5 ed would be easy if not these spells and feats ! Even sorcerer have plenthora of these. :uhoh: :o

Special abilities of Half-Fiend pointless ? :confused: I allow myself to disagree with You, everything could be used to Your advantage. But right, half-fiend template lacks flavor or 2ed tieflings (Baatezu ancestry), Alu-fiends (Succubus daughters), Cambions (male half Tanar'ri) ... my favorite was Cambion Marquis, Rik was accompanied by several such critters to have guys to kill in a fit of anger. :]

Mystique was cool ! :D But fiends hideous ? Ever saw fiendess ? ;)

Heh, from where You took Aerial Avenger ? Savage Species ... perhaps ? :heh:

And as far as I know the Isida's ruling about clerical power in Endless Falls, You are not in need of deity ... just bath in Falls and viola ! She's not only unique, genrous and brilliant ... she's smarter and have wider imagination than I. Just had read a bit of games she DM's. :confused: :o :p Fairies ! I want fairies ! :lol:

And I almost passed out ! How she could surviwe in such strain ? I envy her this endurance. ;)

I alvays disliked mish-mash'ed PrC's classes and all. During my 2ed games it was real pain in the ... back. Rest of the party was trying to jum out of their skins to match succesfullness/flavourness of my wizard and second wizard player (Our wizards were opposites in regard to Art too, Rik spending more time in casino and tavern than learning new spells.) to no avail. Pure munchkinism never replace good (inmy case sinisterly funny antihero) gameplay. :]
 

Zack, I noticed that during the same round that Ferrix decimated the githyanki party, you were about to do the same. As your chosen targets have already been mostly vaporized, would you care to change targets to the warriors or ambassador?

Consider her alignment would be neutral good... Yes they would be:

Darkness 3/day
Desecrate
Unholy blight
Poison 3/day
Contagion
Blasphemy
Unholy aura 3/day, unhallow
Horrid wilting
Summon monster IX (fiends only)
Destruction

Yeah, some of them could be useful but most would be counter productive and/or harmful to her.

Well... read the flavor text for the half-fiend their not pretty and actually smell. :D

Aerial Avenger is from Dargon 319 pg 76

Insanely smart, insanely imaginative, and by far my favorite DM. :)

I agree, but the miss mash of PrC and class levels is because I need to do it so she could be both effective and for her survivability.

Who me?
 

Su'rryu is actually detonating several energy pushes as we speak, but since the Architect destroyed all of her indicated targets, I need to know how she's responding.

;)

Desecrate, Unholy Aura, Blasphemy, Unholy blight are those that I could find harmful/ couter productive. But ... Summon Vrock to tie enemy, Horrid Wilting them followed by Destruction ! And You did almost good deed, by sending fiend back to Abyss. ;)

Brother Shatterstone said:

It is written that usually they are ugly, not alvays. Besides, fiends are devised to be ... um, harmful. Yes, harmful and beatiful women are more harmful than ugly ones, in the wider scale. Of course that is just my opinion. :heh:

:lol: I know ! And going to enyoj the gameplay as well ... all that I read so far is good.

Smart playing, I'm in disadvantage here because it is my first Epic gameplay after 2ed, would work better. And I'm not saying that You did wrongly Your Char or somesuch ... I was just telling my personal preference. To many Classes/Prestige Classes for my char and I end up with chaos in my head. :o ;)
 

Isida, I'm going to take a break from this character... The mechanics are done, *sigh* actually no they are not as I need to do spells for like four classes :rolleyes: and make a celestial companion to do, but long story short I’ve stared at this thing for to long, I don’t know what to write background wise, and truth be told when I went and read some of the IC thread looking for inspiration all I found was doubt… I don’t think my concept, or what’s left of it really works for this game, and maybe what’s worse is that I’ve been unable to find a connection with this character… I do know what I want, it’s just disconnected from me right now…

Long story short I’m very frustrated, and I don’t know if that’s a long term or just short term but I do suggest you plan to go without me…

Sorry for the trouble.
 

Hey, Hey ! Hell to Brother Shatterstone, don't abadon us You signed the contract ... see fine text ? :o

Ups, sorry to hear that You have similiar trouble that I had with Tsunami character ... who is straigh Fighter from the beggining. But I get lost with equipment ... even with help of Wrahn, wich I apreciate greatly, I ended up in the same situation as You with Nymphie. :\

Don't loose heart ! From wich classes You have to think out the spells ?I ccould try to offer some suggestions (Druid "virtual class" is simplest one, all healing. :heh: ) Like putting everywhere where it is possible healing spells, or those that offer protection, bump melee dmg wich is Weak point of Your Char, as You wrote earlier Her best was 72 HP in one hit.

Background ... I have "gift" to create mindlessly silly backgrounds ... I could gladly help in building one for Your girlie. Just describe her in one phrase. ;)

I started with Sindol in such way: "Callous elven Arcane Archer, who lived to fight ... and all but forgot his royal heritage." :)
