[QUOTE="xidoraven, post: 5060451, member: 60187"] Ok, that's a great start. I appreciate the quick response too. ;) So would it be safe to assume that Primus could have in fact had class levels instead of simply Outsider racial HD, or is there some kind of basis here that I might be overlooking? I personally find Primus much more endearing as a mortal or semi-mortal who ascended and created the Modron race after his attainment of godhood, but it would be nice to stick with canon as much as possible. So far no one on Planewalker.com has said that my ideas for him are out of line, but I am trying to be as formal as possible when it comes to material that was brought forth when Gary Gygax was still writing the books. ;) Also, noting the entry for Psionics, would it be safe to say that in this case, those particular abilities might be treated as Psi-like abilities (except that they are obviously spell-like) such as from EPH, where Primus would then be an Outsider with the Psionic subtype? If this is the case or not, would class levels in Psion be helpful or departing from the norm in any way? It would be [I][B]nice[/B][/I] to use the CC version of Primus to compose the revised version, however I am seeing too many discrepancies between the two to really make it work... So I am wondering how far off key I have to go to still make it a viable stat block without being so homebrew that it is no longer canon. Thanks for the great input. ;) -will [/QUOTE]
