There are a lot of really flavorful PRC's and i think it would be a pity to toss that flavor out. I know a lot of people suggest letting players take PRC abilities as epic feats but i just don't like that very much (why, i'm not really certain). I had the idea of creating affiliations (like the ones in PHBII and CC) to act in place of prestige classes. I haven't decided on the specifics yet, I literally just had this idea two minutes ago. I was thinking of keeping the same prerequisites so the really high powered classes would still be unavailable. Obviously the affiliations wouldn't advance spellcasting so caster PRC's would only be used for special abilities. I also probably won't allow affiliations to advance sneak attack.I was thinking it might also be cool (and make access more difficult) to require a certain affiliation score with a prerequisite affiliation. For example, one cannot join the Radiant Servants of Pelor without first being at least 3rd rank in The Shining Light of Pelor. I would probably remove the multiple affiliation penalties in these cases and also allow the abilities of both affiliations to be active.I am aware that this will increase the power level pretty significantly, and I still need to think of what to do with characters who don't have affiliations (although why wouldn't you want one!?) I guess the questions are; what do you think of the idea? what PRC's should i look out for? Any advice? Any warnings?</blockquote>
