One thing I was thinking of was ditching prestige classes - they just seem unnecessarily messy to me, although I DO like the idea of characters getting tangible effects from specialized training and secret organizations. So, I thought that a compromise might be to create new feats that simulate the special training without having to tack on extra classes and whatnot. So, instead of taking the shadowdancer PrC, a character picks up the shadowdancer's special abilities slowly each time he would get a feat. Does this seem like it would work? I would attach prerequisites to the feats so that a character wouldn't be able to get them too early in his career, and they could only be learned from the appropropriate organizations or whatever. Anyone ever tried anything like this?</p></blockquote><p></p>
