The Immortals Handbook

[historian]

There's no big mystery, I believe historian is refering to Demiurge. Which I no longer use as a divine status.

Indeed I was. I am wondering if the American game show "Wheel of Fortune' is popular in the U.K.

They are indeed based on the Devastation Vermin in the ELH. So you can imagine beings larger than insects scaled up.

I can't wait to unleash the devastation orcs.

Hey UK.

Holy crap! Devastation template....that's awesome UK. Incidently, do you have any sizes in your book bigger than colossal+? I thought that was lame...I mean, colossal+ could be 300ft tall, or 4000ft tall...big difference there.

Thanks for the advice with the god by the way.


Also, do you use damage reduction the same way as WotC? Such as 20/Silver and Holy and Slashing, like that? If so, how do the larger entities stack up? Artifacts and other unique items only doing full damage?

Sorry. I saw this thread a while ago (Imi a pretty crazy lurker) and I am incredibly interested in this Book. I know for a fact that i will get it when its open (unless i need paypal ) to public.

Im just curious if you have a publication date coming up? and I know you mentioned a CR 40,000 creature. Ive been wondering what such a creature could be. The only thing ive thought up was Gravity-Itself

Sorry if you are sick of answering the pub-date question, but I havent been following this thread as much as I'd like to.

Thanks.

Hey Knight Otu mate!

Using the same scale?

*Tries imagining Colossal+N*

*Starts to see Planets*

Oops.

Think bigger.

Indeed I was. I am wondering if the American game show "Wheel of Fortune' is popular in the U.K.

I'm familiar with it.

I can't wait to unleash the devastation orcs.

I heard they feed on Tarrasques.

I do have sizes bigger than Colossal in my book, in fact quite a few sizes bigger.

As far as I know the Colossal+ mentioned in the ELH refers to something 128-255 ft.

Personally I wanted to have each size category named, but there are only about ten possible extra descriptive terms and I have more categories than that.

Thanks for the advice with the god by the way.

My pleasure.

Also, do you use damage reduction the same way as WotC? Such as 20/Silver and Holy and Slashing, like that?

Yes. I also have some new elements, which I'll be keeping secret for now.

If so, how do the larger entities stack up?

I don't want to frighten you.

Artifacts and other unique items only doing full damage?

Well that depends on the artifact.

There are Divine Abilities which deal with these sort of things as well as weapon powers.

Hello there!

Sorry. I saw this thread a while ago (Imi a pretty crazy lurker) and I am incredibly interested in this Book.

Well, nice to meet you.

I know for a fact that i will get it when its open (unless i need paypal ) to public.

I appreciate the support.

Im just curious if you have a publication date coming up?

As soon as possible. Can't really say more than that at this juncture.

and I know you mentioned a CR 40,000 creature. Ive been wondering what such a creature could be. The only thing ive thought up was Gravity-Itself

Funny you mention it I do have a gravity based 'Black Hole Beast*' which is very powerful but I don't think its the CR 40,000 creature.

*A common sub-name, not the monsters actual name.

Sorry if you are sick of answering the pub-date question, but I havent been following this thread as much as I'd like to.

No apologies necessary. If anyone should be aploogising its me for not having the book out already.

Thanks.

Anytime mate.

Hi Anabstercorian mate!

DR 60/Epic Good Evil Lawful Chaotic Adamantine?

I really want to spill the beans but you are just going to have to wait.

Here's the class I mentioned earlier:

Transcendant Epic PrC

 

[historian]

Here's the class I mentioned earlier:

Transcendant Epic PrC

That's an awfully cool class CRGreathouse, and seems mighty powerful. I might think about requiring a very high wisdom score, plus a direct encounter with an eternal before applying 'renounce morality' (also, as I read it, the character wouldn't be withdrawing or transcending the entirety of their alignment, just either the law/chaos or good/evil part).

In addition to what you've listed, one perk to transcending alignment could be that the character would become undectable to those who formerly shared the character's alignment. For instance, a lawful evil monk that transcended evil could be rewarded with, in effect, a permanent mind blank spell in effect against creatures of evil alignments (you could even include deities if you wanted to make it uber powerful, or you could even make the character entirely undetectable ). Of course, this effect might be reserved for only the mightiest of the class.

Just some thoughts.

 

[CRGreathouse]

I'm glad you liked the class. I wrote it because I thought it would be a good idea to develop, not because I had any characters going down that path -- but once I wrote it, two of the players told me they were interested!

I like that idea. I might make it an epic feat requiring (effectively) all 15 levels of the class.

One thing I don't like about the class is its terminal ability, which seems pretty flavorless for what should be the keystone of the class -- the 'Transcend' of the Transcendant. Any thoughts?

Oh, and we should probably post on that thread so as to not further sully the IH thread.
