[QUOTE="jefgorbach, post: 5871734, member: 28278"] @ Jack Simth – thanks, I was fairly certain the cost to Wish for magic items was specified someplace but wasn’t spotting it so second-guessed it was a house-rule. James the Newbie – I’m Likely forgetting the finer details since away from notes, but the Simulacrum exploit makes finding “surplus” child’s play for someone capable of casting Wish because you simply specify the Wish drains any required xp requirements from your simulacrum(s); as each has an expendable pool of (its current xp – the minimum xp needed to reach its current level) per RAW. The lycanthropic solution seems the simplest (with the added benefit of explaining how THAT curse originated) , obviously with the caveat becoming unique individuals (ie: named demons, the Tarrasque, etc) is –not- possible; even so limited, expect having to rebalance encounters on-the-fly whenever he changes race. Therefore it might be beneficial to limit the ring to those races with +LA equal-or-less than his default race. IE: He was born a Drow, so would be limited to those races with a +0 to +2LA. However another thought might be having the Curse simply provide the Doppleganger(Change Self Supernatural Ability); although I’m uncertain how’d you would determine the corresponding Crafting price.
