OOC: House Millithor in COSQ part 4

[Brother Shatterstone]

heh, I lied I have one more question... Should I drop the whole template on Kilcif or do you want to do some sort of progression on him?

He's already lost one level for dying, the party gained a level, so he would be 2 levels ahead of most of the group.

 

[Xael]

Btw, Quertus now has that Mind Blank for Kilcif.

Based on player feedback, I'm contemplating making a history post where the party opted to live and did not go to Maerimydra. Instead, the party allowed Kurogth, Irae, and some heroes from the surface world to slay each other in battle.

This, incidentally, also explains why the party is only ECL 17, since the party probably would have gone over ECL 20, had they fought their way through Castle Maerimydra.

The party hid out while Quertus studied magic. Eventually, Lolth returned and the adventure continues.

Well, considering how high level the party is/wants to be, do we want to raise the ECL of everyone a little? I'm pretty much expecting this to go into Epic levels at any rate. And that would solve a lot of the problems we've been having we various templates and whatnot. Should we just make it 20 and call it square? That would give everyone a total amount of gear worth 760,000gp.

As for permanent spells... If we decide to go with the whole 20th level thing, let's say that everyone has 198,000 xp, and you can deduct the XP cost for permanent spells, magic items you create, and whatnot from that 8,000 "extra" xp.

How would that work for everyone?

As for the Sword of the Dales
+3 longsword, +18,315gp
water breathing 1/day, +16,000gp (taken from intelligent item greater power as 1/day 3rd level spell)
knock in 30 ft. radius, +60,000gp (2nd level spell applied to radius, taken from special purpose item dedicated powers table)
Lich's phylactery, 120,000gp and 4,800xp (taken from page 168 of 3.5 MM, lich entry)

Total cost of Sword of the Dales - 214,315gp.

17,20, makes little difference to me. I can do 20th easily enough...

 

[Xael]

How would that work for everyone?

*Dies*

 

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

Uriel, did you e-mail me the PrC you were going to? I may be deleted it by accident, make sure the subject is something really obvious, because I get so much spam it isn't funny so I tend to delete anything I don't immediately recognize.

 

[Dalamar]

Those 420 thousand gps sure sound tempting (that's the only thing Torellan will gain when we go from ECL 17 to 20, since he is already ECL 22).

Edit - You wouldn't agree, Isida, that a vampiric drow isn't exactly worth +10 LA, would you?
And do the LA-HD affect things like the number of HD that a vampire can have under it (which a total worth of HDs equal to their own HDx2), and the DCs of special abilities like a vampire's Dominate, which is 10 +1/2 level+Cha mod?

Because he's becoming a lich
