[QUOTE="reel_big_gish, post: 3032456, member: 43520"] (So yeah, I'm a big fan of the Magician series. Book 1 was a little slow, but it picked up nicely in Book 2.) Both the beetle swarm and wasp swarm will be acceptable for [i]Summon Swarm[/i]. The Wasp Swarm's Poison DC is wonky, and not in line with similar examples. Instead of DC18, 1d6 Dex damage, it will be DC13, 1d4 Dex damage. Since the DC is Constitution-based, it can be increased with Augment Summoning or similar abilities. Using the [i]Pipes of the Sewers[/i] to summon beetle swarms or wasp swarms (pick one) is also acceptable, but may not function in cities or other places where large numbers of beetles or wasps are unlikely. As for your third question, I'll do a bit of research and work with you on either adding new swarms to your [i]Summon Nature's Ally[/i] list or creating improved versions of [i]Summon Swarm[/i]. I'm also toying with the idea of allowing you to use Vermin Shape (ECS) as an alternate class feature replacing Wild Shape instead of as a feat. I am not a fan of feats that don't provide some type of benefit. If it added Vermin to your allowed Wild Shapes, then I could understand it, but as written, it's on par with Unarmored Body, which sucks out loud. [/QUOTE]
