Message: <blockquote data-quote="Brother Shatterstone" data-source="post: 1447719" data-attributes="member: 13442">Nymph_ParagonOkay,Most of this was removed from the Chosen of Sune template I was working on but I wasn't really sure what else to do with a full blown Nymph who has an ECL +7 (It states on pg. 46 that a more powerful paragon is expectable for a higher ECL race.  I don't see anything broke, or well seriously broken, in this and I think all of its in the nature of the nymph its all non-combative and/or defensive in nature. (My notes are in bold.)<img src="http://home.earthlink.net/~shatterstone/images/Nymph_Paragon.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />Instead of giving a skill bonus I thought that this was a better way for a Nymph to avoid combat.  I actually made this power. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> Aura of Majesty (Su):  To look upon a nymph is too look upon beauty itself, and those who gaze find it hard not to be enchanted. This ability affects all intelligent creatures within 30 feet of the nymph. Non-evil, non-hostile creature that looks upon the nymph must make a will saving throw versus DC (10 + ½ character level + charisma modifier) or have their attitude changed one step closer to helpful.  Creatures that are already helpful are not effect by this aura.  The nymph can suppress or resume this ability as a free action.This was a feat inside Mongoose Publishing’s Encyclopedia Arcana: Enchantment.  It has seen use in the other game but PA ruled that a saving though vs. will was needed.  It's actually works out to be the same DC as the one for awesome beauty power in the half-nymph template.  The feat is in its entirely here.Stunning Beauty (Enchantment) Your magical powers of seduction and attraction have become so subconscious, they occur constantly. Those who see you are often taken aback, hesitating a few moments before acting against you.  Prerequisites: Fair Visage or Charisma 18+, 5 + ranks in Bluff. Benefit: This feat affects only beings that would be attracted to you (i.e. same or similar race, sexually attracted, etc. The Games Master's discretion has final say in whether this feat applies.) Any being that tries to target you with an attack or spell during a surprise round loses the ability to act and must wait to do so until normal initiative is rolled. During normal initiative, if you have not yet acted in a given round when someone targets you with a spell or attack he must delay his initiative until it matches yours.This is a power I made for the Chosen's own protection as the chosen wasn't all that powerful of a combatant so I really never saw this power as being an effective offensive weapon but simply as a way to escape over zealous suitors and unwanted lovers.Kiss of the Enchantress (Su): With this kiss a nymph can charm the target just as if she had cast the appropriate charm spell.  If the kiss is opposed a successful grapple and pin check or the target must be prone.  A target that willing accepts the kiss does not give up his saving throw to oppose his charm spell.  This ability uses the nymph character level, including racial hit dice, as its caster level and can be used a number of times per a day equal to her charisma modifier.Anyhow it's probaly to powerful but at least it gives you a number of things to look at. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />As of note was this:True Beauty, Your appearance is such that any creature that views you will be attracted to you regardless of race or sexual preference. While this attraction is not overwhelming, it allows you to use abilities dependent on attraction on any sentient creature.And a more powerful Lips of Rapture from the Heartwarder class...Lips of Greater Rapture (Su): When the chosen uses lips of rapture, it dispels (not merely suspends) the effects of fatigue, exhaustion, and nausea in the target. It also gives the recipient temporary hit points equal to 1d8 + your caster level (maximum 1d8+10), just as if you had cast an aid spell upon them. These temporary hit points has a duration of 1 minute/level, just like aid, rather than the 5-round duration of the other modifiers from the lips of rapture. The recipient does not gain the morale modifier from the aid spell.  This ability replaces the Heartwarder ability and the chosen can use it a number of times per day equal to her charisma modifierAnd lastly some bardlike music kisses. Kiss of Courage (Su): With this kiss the chosen can inspire courage in a willing ally by bolstering them against fear and improving their combat abilities. An affected ally receives a +1 morale bonus on saving throws against charm and fear effects and a +1 morale bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls. At the chosen 8th level, and every six levels thereafter, this bonus increases by 1 (+2 at 8th, +3 at 14th, and +4 at 20th). Kiss of Courage is a mind-affecting ability that can be used another of times a day equal to the chosen’s charisma modifier divided by 3.  Example: a chosen with a charisma of 28 could use this ability 3 times a day.Kiss of Greatness (Su): With this kiss the chosen can inspire greatness in a willing ally by granting them extra fighting capability.  A creature gains 2 bonus Hit Dice (d10s), the commensurate number of temporary hit points (apply the target’s Constitution modifier, if any, to these bonus Hit Dice), a +2 competence bonus on attack rolls, and a +1 competence bonus on Fortitude saves. The bonus Hit Dice count as regular Hit Dice for determining the effect of spells that are Hit Dice dependant.  This effect lasts 1 round for each charisma bonus the chosen possesses.  Kiss of Greatness is a mind-affecting ability that can be used another of times a day equal to the chosen’s charisma bonus divided by 3.  Example: a chosen with a charisma of 28 could use this ability 3 times a day.Kiss of Heroics (Su): With this kiss a chosen can inspire tremendous heroism in the recipient.  A creature so inspired gains a +4 morale bonus on saving throws and a +4 dodge bonus to AC. This effect lasts 1 round for each charisma bonus the chosen possesses. Kiss of Heroics is a mind-affecting ability that can be used another of times a day equal to the chosen’s charisma bonus divided by 3.  Example: a chosen with a charisma of 28 could use this ability 3 times a day.Enjoy. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
