[QUOTE="AbdulAlhazred, post: 5020556, member: 82106"] I think either option could be fine depending on the type of game, the player, and the nature of the character and how that relates to the path he's chosen. As an example I have an 8th level party I'm running for right now. There's a dwarf who's player wants to go Dreadnought probably. I think its fine to have that one be a fairly low key thing. His path is pretty much a straightforward extension of what he does now, fight really well and keep the monsters off the rest of the party's backs. I may have him be exposed to some arcane energy and have that explain his initial PP features though. The warlock on the other hand is planning on taking Master of the Starry Night. I think I'll have him dig up some Book of Horrible Secrets soon and as he exposes himself to Forbidden Knowledge it will culminate in him getting his PP stuff (plus he already has some fragments of a 'black rock that fell from the sky' that may just tie into it as well). Anyway, now that I know what PP they are aiming for I can jigger events in the next 3 levels a bit so that the transitions are worked into the story and seem natural and possibly dramatic. [/QUOTE]
