My entry for Snowbluff (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showsinglepost.php?p=19145349&postcount=1).

Unstable Personality
While most people keep their emotions in check and walk on egg shells, you decide to utilize your emotions to great effect.

Prerequisite
Charisma Score of 15, Medium or Smaller, Master Manipulator

Benefit
This feat grants you three new abilities. These abilities cannot be active at the same time and are activated as a swift action.

How could you do that? If an intelligent opponent deals combat damage to you, you may roll a diplomacy check. If that opponent attempts to attack you again, they must make a will save (DC 10 + 1/2 your HD + your charisma modifier) each time they attempt to attack you. If the creature fails their Will Save, they automatically fail their attack (treat the roll as a natural 1). Creatures that succeed on the Will Save are immune to this effect for 24 hours.

Don't hurt me! You gain a deflection bonus to your AC equal to your charisma modifier against opponents one or more size classes larger than you.

That was your last mistake. If you fall below half of your total life value, you gain a circumstance bonus to all intimidate rolls equal to double your charisma modfier.

Chevalier
Prerequisites: Must possess a Paladin's Oath Class Feature or other similar class feature
Benefit: Your oath is sworn to the service of another person of your choice (PC or NPC). So long as you retain loyalty to and act in what you perceive as the best interests of the person you swore your oath to, you are not at risk of falling due to acts you commit or people you associate with. In addition, whenever an enemy creature attacks the person you've sworn your oath to, they provoke an attack of opportunity from you. You may also choose to forgo this attack of opportunity to instead become the target of the attack instead of your master if your master is within melee range of you.
Special: You may choose to rescind your oath if any of the following occur: Your master dies, you no longer feel that you can uphold the oath to your master due to irreconcilable differences in personality or change in the nature of your relationship, or you are released from your duty by your master for any reason. If your oath is rescinded you can swear a new oath to a different master at any time and still retain use of this feat.

That was your last mistake. If you fall below half of your total life value, you gain an untyped bonus to your intimidate equal to double your charisma modfier.

As written, this lets you retain the Intimidate bonus even if you heal back above half health. Is that the intent?

[LoyalPaladin]

Yep, totally fine. Its the least powerful and probably most situational of the three. Its meant to jive well with chainsaw users.

[Elricaltovilla]

How could you do that? If an intelligent opponent deals combat damage to you, roll a diplomacy check. If that opponent attempts to deal damage to you again, they must make a will save with a DC of your diplomacy roll. Until they make the will safe, all attempted attacks miss.



If I could propose some alternate wording:


How could you do that? If an intelligent opponent deals combat damage to you, you may roll a diplomacy check. If that opponent attempts to attack you again, they must make a will save (DC equal to your Diplomacy Check) each time they attempt to attack you. If the creature fails their Will Save, they automatically fail their attack (treat the roll as a natural 1). Creatures that succeed on the Will Save are immune to this effect for 24 hours.


Also, this is seriously broken. It's so easy to pump Diplomacy through the roof, the target will likely never pass their will save.

Fel Strike: Charm [Combat, Mind Affecting]

Prerequisites: BAB +4, Able to cast 3rd level spells, Arcane Strike, Evil Alignment
Benefit: Whenever you hit an opponent with a weapon attack, you may expend a spell to charm the creature as a swift action.

Creatures that succeed on the save are immune to the effect for 24 hours.

[Troacctid]

Are Red's Pepper Flakes available at my local Brawlmart?

And will it help me defeat my local schoolyard bully if he turns out to be an evil sadistic space alien fugitive in disguise?

These are important questions.

[Elricaltovilla]

"Why do I have to take a swift action" still stands. Arcane Strike takes a swift action in PF. How about 1/round as a free action?

Because it's an average of 150% increase in damage of a nearly unbeatable energy type that allows you to hit incorporeal and ethereal foes without miss chance, compared to arcane strike. That's why.

EDIT:

Yes.


And will it help me defeat my local schoolyard bully if he turns out to be an evil sadistic space alien fugitive in disguise?

These are important questions.

Only if you pour them directly into his eyes. I assume this is a reference to something. I most likely missed it.

[Elricaltovilla]

For a much higher cost in resources with an alignment requirement. You have to spend spell slots and be evil for it to work. I'll remember to cower in fear when the evil archwizard subsumes his meteor swarm for 22 damage on one attack! :smalltongue:

Even if you had free 1st level slots lying around, it'd still only add cantrip's worth of damage. As for incorporeal, everyone can get around that with cheap items anyway.

Arcane Strike could use the buff of "yay we can still use it after getting this feat."

Y'know Snowbluff, it's not my job to please you. I wrote those feats for Red Fel, who happens to be Champion of Evil of the forums, so they come with an alignment restriction. I like gishes, and I know that Red likes them too, so they buff gishes, not wizards. If 2/3 feats are great for everybody, then cool. As long as Red likes the work I wrote about him, then that's all that matters.

I don't need to fix these feats, they're not broken. This is supposed to be for fun, and I'm not having much fun with this anymore. Again.

Snowbluff's Distracting Images (Reserve, Illusion)

With but a wave of your hand, a series of rapidly flashing images appears before you, captivating your audience for a brief moment.

Prerequisite:
Able to cast 2nd level spells.
Benefit:
As long as you have an illusion spell of 2nd level or higher available to cast, you can conjure a short series of repeating images, potentially distracting any creature with an intelligence greater than 3 for 1 round. A distracted opponent is unable to act in the round following it's distraction, and is denied it's dexterity bonus to AC for the duration of it's distraction. A creature can only be distracted in this manner once per encounter. Opponent is allowed a saving throw (Will, DC 10+CL) to ignore the effects.

[Red Fel]

Don't be unhappy, Elric! I got you a thing!

Altovilla Spellstrike School
Students of the Altovilla Spellstrike School integrate martial maneuvers with their arcane combat skills.
Prerequisites: Spellstrike class feature, Initiator Level 1, BAB +3
Benefits: Three times per day, as a swift action, before performing a martial strike, you can declare it to be an Altovilla Spellstrike. Use the strike's attack roll to determine if the spell connects. If the strike connects, you may cast any touch spell you know of 0th or 1st level on the target struck. If the strike connects with multiple targets, choose only one, unless the spell specifically allows multiple targets. If the strike does not connect, the spell and the daily use of this feat are both wasted.
Normal: When using Spellstrike, you must meet the spell's casting time.

Altovilla Spellstrike Mastery
Experts in the Altovilla Spellstrike School can channel greater power into their weapons.
Prerequisites: Spellstrike class feature, Initiator Level 1, BAB +7, Altovilla Spellstrike School
Benefits: When you use the Altovilla Spellstrike School feat, you may channel any touch spell you know up to 3rd level.

Elric's Perfected Spellstrike
The founder of the Altovilla Spellstrike School was incomparable in his fusion of spell combat and martial combat.
Prerequisites: Spellstrike class feature, Initiator Level 1, BAB +12, Altovilla Spellstrike School, Altovilla Spellstrike Mastery

[Elricaltovilla]

Don't be unhappy, Elric! I got you a thing!

Altovilla Spellstrike School
Students of the Altovilla Spellstrike School integrate martial maneuvers with their arcane combat skills.
Prerequisites: Spellstrike class feature, Initiator Level 1, BAB +3
Benefits: Three times per day, as a swift action, before performing a martial strike, you can declare it to be an Altovilla Spellstrike. Use the strike's attack roll to determine if the spell connects. If the strike connects, you may cast any touch spell you know of 0th or 1st level on the target struck. If the strike connects with multiple targets, choose only one, unless the spell specifically allows multiple targets. If the strike does not connect, the spell and the daily use of this feat are both wasted.
Normal: When using Spellstrike, you must meet the spell's casting time.

Altovilla Spellstrike Mastery
Experts in the Altovilla Spellstrike School can channel greater power into their weapons.
Prerequisites: Spellstrike class feature, Initiator Level 1, BAB +7, Altovilla Spellstrike School
Benefits: When you use the Altovilla Spellstrike School feat, you may channel any touch spell you know up to 3rd level.

Elric's Perfected Spellstrike
The founder of the Altovilla Spellstrike School was incomparable in his fusion of spell combat and martial combat.
Prerequisites: Spellstrike class feature, Initiator Level 1, BAB +12, Altovilla Spellstrike School, Altovilla Spellstrike Mastery
Benefits: When you use the Altovilla Spellstrike School feat, you may channel any touch spell you know up to 5th level.

Ooh these are fun. And they fit great with my character niche.

Benefit: Once per day, when an attack would reduce you to 0 hit points, you are instead reduced to 1 hit point.
Special: If the attack that dealt damage to you was made by a creature with Paladin levels, you may use this ability any number of times, even if it has been used already today.

Races and deities weren't as much to my interest, but feats I think I can handle. Permission (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showsinglepost.php?p=19148910&postcount=60).

For a cheap one:
Psybomb [Psionic, Combat]
You are a walking avatar of psionic destruction.
Benefit: As a standard action, you may channel psionic energy into a devastating burst, spending 1 PP and dealing 1d6 damage of your active energy type (energy modifications as standard) in a 5' radius, centered on yourself. You may exclude yourself from this damage if you choose.
Augment: For every additional PP spent, increase the damage dealt by 1d6 and increase the radius by 5'.
You may expend psionic focus to exclude a number of creatures equal to you manifesting modifier.

Basically gives a passable blast to anyone with a PP pool, though it is as much a power as a feat. I'll try to come up with something better.

[Jormengand]

Stack
You are capable of stacking things.
Benefit: Choose a type of bonus except for ability, armour, racial, shield or size. Bonuses of that type stack for you.
Restriction: Multiple bonuses of the same type that come from the same source still don't stack.
Normal: Only dodge and circumstance bonuses stack.

Jormengand's Wordsmithing
By following the methods of the greatest Truenamer of all time, you find your targets far easier to affect. The Laws, though, don't like you taking this shortcut.
Benefit: When rolling a Truespeech skill check for any utterance, you may halve the DC increase for the target's HD. However, if you do so, you also Curse yourself for two rounds. This curse doubles the penalties inflicted by the Law of Resistance while in effect (so if you attempt an utterance for the fourth time in a day while cursed, the Skill DC would go up by 16 instead of 8)

That doesn't work because the Law of Sequence's effect can't be doubled and the Law of Resistance's effect doesn't have a duration so cursing yourself "For two rounds" doesn't mean anything, plus the skill is called Truespeak. But otherwise, it's cool. :smalltongue:

Yep, definitely not a Paladin. Maybe the LN (leaning LE) psionic with an unusually high charisma score.

I don't destroy those who oppose me. I attempt a diplomacy check and then show them the error of their ways. It isn't my fault that charisma is my main stat and I happen to stick all my points in diplomacy.

But it would normally only go up 2 (to a total of 8), and you're trying to make it go up 10 to a total of 16 instead. Unless you really want it doubling the end LoR penalty. Oh, and doesn't work on Crafted Tool or Perfected map utterances, deliberate?

Also, the feat is almost never worth it, sorry. If you're the kind of person who can eat the LoR penalty without being very sad, why do you need the +HD/2 bonus to truespeak again?

I suppose it's just from a literary perspective that the cynical knight appeals to me more. I have nothing against farm boys, but the guy who knows how terrible the world is and still fights to make it better? That's a hero to me.

Paladins Inc. denies the accusation that 2000% of our esteemed and loyal staff would behave in such a manner. The quality of our hiring staff is of the highest quality and is led by Mr. Red L. E. Fel, who we have had on staff ever since my ring of undetectable alignment went missing. In collaboration with him, we have made sure that every stat our paladins have will never fall below 10. Crimes against the forces of Law and Good have never been lower.

I like that drink... and that link was pretty funny... you are forgiven.

I am a big fan of the "last bastion of hope" type of paladin. I like that they know the world is awful, but they can't be brought down, because if they lose hope, all is lost.

It's more simple than we're making it out to be. To utter, you need to take a truespeak check, but the DC goes up 2 each time you use the same utterance.

Related to my favorite trope, Up to eleven.

[PsyBomb]

It's more simple than we're making it out to be. To utter, you need to take a truespeak check, but the DC goes up 2 each time you use the same utterance.

I guess what I was trying to say was something like...

Player A uses Wordsmithing to use Utterance on Victim.
He uses the same Utterance next round. Normally, the DC would have been increased by 2, it is up by 4 instead.
An hour later, he uses the same Utterance. Its DC is increased by 4 as normal for the Law, not doubled to 8.

Does that make sense?

[Red Fel]

Also, that wasn't very funny. Anyone got a better one?

[Jormengand]

Its DC is increased by 4 as normal for the Law,

But the law only increases it by 2 each time. It doesn't go up 2 per time, each time.

[PsyBomb]

But the law only increases it by 2 each time. It doesn't go up 2 per time, each time.

Now I see the miscommunication. Each time, I was speaking "from base", not "from prior recitation". So, on the second time, it is up 2 from base. On the third, it's up 4 total from base. Make sense now? Sorry if I messed up the wording.

Hey, we do Worldspeakers instead. They can taste ice cream after the first 16 levels, rather than the first 19, so they're on par with the wizard.

And by "Taste ice cream" I do indeed mean "Cast Gate."

Snowbluff's Distracting Images (Reserve, Illusion)

With but a wave of your hand, a series of rapidly flashing images appears before you, captivating your audience for a brief moment.

Prerequisite:
Able to cast 2nd level spells.
Benefit:
As long as you have an illusion spell of 2nd level or higher available to cast, you can conjure a short series of repeating images, potentially distracting any creature with an intelligence greater than 3 for 1 round. A distracted opponent is unable to act in the round following it's distraction, and is denied it's dexterity bonus to AC for the duration of it's distraction. A creature can only be distracted in this manner once per encounter. Opponent is allowed a saving throw (Will, DC 10+CL) to ignore the effects.OOOh, shiny. It should have a more regular DC, though. :smallsmile:

Jormengard

Legend tells of a legendary craftsmen famous for his large quantity of crafting services. Some craftsmen have honed their ability to create large castles quickly in his honor.
Prerequisite: Craft (stone masonry) 13, Profession (architect) 13
Benefit: You can craft a castle made out of superior masonry in the time span of 1 week with a DC 25 craft (stone masonry) check and a DC 20 profession (architect) check. The walls can be anywhere between 6 in. and 2 ft. in thickness. The outer walls can be up to 10 ft thick + craft check inches. The area of the castle can be up to (craft check x 10 ft) x (craft check x 10 ft) x (profession check x 10 ft). The castle can be as simple or complex as you want, but it is made entirely out of mundane superior masonry. To use this feat you need a source of stone sufficient enough to make your castle as normal.

[Jormengand]

So... you can create a castle impossibly quickly because you honour... someone? So long as you have enough stone.

Okay. Sure.

Irrefutable Truth
You don't have time for squabbling and bargaining. Instead, you'd prefer to present the facts up front. Why is that so difficult to understand?

Prerequisite
Intelligence Score 16, Skill Focus: Knowledge (Any)

Here's my "feat tax." :smalltongue:

Sam's Wham Bam
You know that it's never enough to just hit someone. You feel the need to hit someone with the person you just hit.

Prerequisites
Strength 16, Power Attack, Improved Bull Rush

Benefit
When you make a Power Attack, you can forgo dealing the extra damage from Power Attack to move your target (if your size or smaller). The target must pass a Balance check (DC 10 + attackers STR mod) or be moved in any direction 5' for each -1 penalty to the attack roll with a success only moving the target 5' / -5 penalty (rounded down). If the target would be stopped by another creature, both creatures take damage.

If using a two-handed weapon, this damage is equal to the extra damage you would have dealt from the power attack plus one and a half times your Strength modifier (initial target would then take the extra damage from Strength modifier twice). If you are using a one-handed weapon, the damage is equal to the extra damage you would have dealt from the power attack plus half your strength modifier. If you are using a light weapon (to include unarmed strikes), the damage is equal to the extra damage you would have dealth from the power attack.

If the target would hit a solid object, treat the impact as if you had made a sunder attempt and the initial target takes any damage the object does (after adjusting for the object's Hardness).

[Snowbluff]

It should be like 5 feet per -5, which is similiar to regular bullrushing increments. For each -1 you're throwing people a hundred feet. :smalltongue:

[illyahr]

At BaB +20 you could take -20 to knock them back 100'. It gets +5' distance for each -1 you reduced your attack. By that time, I really don't think a melee character throwing someone 100' is much of an issue. If you went 5' for each -5, it would only start being remotely useful at BaB of +10 or better. Sure, you could knock them into the floor (down is a direction :smallwink:), but you would be better off just using Power Attack.

Well, it's a lot of movement for an attack roll with no save. Maybe a compromise, or make it so the attack doubles as a bullrush roll, giving more movement for beating his AC.

Also, if you have the guy against another creature, it always works. :D

It also prevents follow-up attacks. That means a full-melee character is restricted to a single attack each round. It's mostly designed for knocking out mooks while still focusing on the BBEG. A martial BBEG isn't going to be phased by the extra damage and a magical BBEG has ways of staying out of range/using the range to his advantage.

Illyahir's Dance Battle
Prerequisites: Perform (Dance) 5 ranks, Diplomacy 5 ranks
Benefit: As a standard action, you can make a diplomacy check against one creature with intelligence 3 or greater within 30 ft. If the check succeeds, you and the target engage in a dance battle. Dance battles consist of 5 rounds of opposed Perform (Dance) checks, during which time no other creature may interfere with the contest, except to make Perform (musical Intrument), Perform (Oratory) or Perform (Sing) checks as aid another attempts. At the end of the 5 rounds, whichever creature won the most opposed Perform (Dance) checks is declared the victor, and the loser is given the served condition.
Special: The player (not the PC), may choose to instead challenge the DM to an actual dance battle in place of having the characters dance. If the Player defeats the DM in a dance battle, the encounter is resolved in the best possible outcome for the party.

Sam's Wham Bam
You know that it's never enough to just hit someone. You feel the need to hit someone with the person you just hit.

Prerequisites
Strength 16, Power Attack, Improved Bull Rush

Benefit
When you make a Power Attack with a two-handed weapon, you can forgo dealing the extra damage from Power Attack to move your target (if your size or smaller) in any direction 5' for each -1 you took to your attack roll. If the target would be stopped by another creature, both creatures take damage equal to the extra damage you would have dealt from the power attack plus one and a half times your Strength modifier (initial target would then take the extra damage from Strength modifier twice). If the target would hit a solid object, treat the impact as if you had made a sunder attempt and the initial target takes any damage the object does (after adjusting for the object's Hardness.)I like the idea a lot, but I think Snowbluff is right, it's a little screwy and open to abuse as written.

Moving the target is more valuable than the possible extra damage, even if knocking them into their friends is a lot of fun. Even if I'm not knocking them into anyone else, being able to knock someone a few squares away, and then do it again when they try moving through my threatened area to get back into melee range is better than the existent forms of AoO lockdown. And BAB scales a bit faster on the other side of the DM screen. A CR-equivalent dragon can Power Attack for about half-again as much as a full BAB PC if it really wants to, though it will have to be wielding a weapon, since natural weapons don't count for the feat.

There's also the fact that there doesn't seem to be any way of resisting it. You just need to make contact and away they go, so long as they aren't bigger than you. It might be better to model it a bit more along the lines of Knockback. Making it work more akin to the usual bull rush rules also opens up Dungeoncrashing, on the extra damage side of things.

[Elricaltovilla]

I feel like I should define the served condition, but...

[Troacctid]

Compare and contrast Awesome Blow, which knocks them 10 feet in exchange for a -4 penalty, allows a Reflex save, and requires 25 Str and large size or larger. (It also knocks them prone, which is relevant, but still.)

I grant permission (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showsinglepost.php?p=19155186&postcount=154), by the way. Hey, can I make one for myself? :smalltongue:

Troacctid's Swiftness
Why would you want to stand still for the whole fight? You think that's dumb. You've read the 5th Edition Player's Handbook and you have some better ideas.

Prerequisites
Base attack bonus +6, must be proficient with one or more martial weapons

Benefit
You can make a full attack as a standard action. You can also make a full attack with melee weapons while mounted, even if your mount moves more than 5 feet.

Normal
Making a full attack requires a full round action, and you cannot make more than one melee attack while mounted if your mount moves more than 5 feet.

Special
This feat can be used in conjunction with a Spring Attack, Flyby Attack, or Swim-By Attack, allowing you to make each of your attacks at any point during your movement. (This replaces the single attack made in a Spring Attack, although you may still avoid attacks of opportunity from one target as normal, and Bounding Assault and Rapid Blitz still function normally if you have them.)

At 6th level, a monk may select Troacctid's Swiftness as her bonus feat, even if she does not have the prerequisites.

A fighter may select Troacctid's Swiftness as one of his fighter bonus feats. A scout may select Troacctid's Swiftness as one of her scout bonus feats. A ranger using the Champion of the Wild variant may select Troacctid's Swiftness as one of his Champion of the Wild bonus feats.

I won't comment on whether or not you can make a feat for yourself, but shouldn't you just call that feat "Melee Stops Sucking"?

I think you'd need alternate wording for dealing with Spring Attack, since unlike Flyby Attack, it's not "take a standard action while moving".

Adjusted it to allow a fairly easy balance check to resist. Hows that?

You have an encyclopedic knowledge of the forms available to you when you wildshape.

Prerequisite
Wild shape ability

Benefit
Your options for wild shaping are expanded. The maximum Hit Dice of wild shape forms available to you increases by 2, and you need not be familiar with a creature in order to take its form with wild shape.


LoyalPaladin's Holy Cold Iron Lemonade
Life has given you lemons, and you have decided to throw them at demons.

Prerequisites
Lawful Good alignment, Monkey Grip

Benefit
You no longer take a -2 penalty to attack rolls when wielding an oversized weapon. In addition, any oversized melee weapon you wield in two hands deals an extra 2d6 damage to evil creatures and is treated as cold iron and good-aligned for the purposes of overcoming damage reduction.

It's a little odd that you can move them in any direction--shouldn't it only push them away from you?

As written, if you attack them with a reach weapon, you can pull them towards you and deal damage to yourself. :smalltongue:

[illyahr]

It's a little odd that you can move them in any direction--shouldn't it only push them away from you?

They will move away from the blow, yes. You can adjust how you swing in order to get the direction you need. Swing from the left, they go right. Swing from the right, they go left. Swing directly at them and they go back. Swing from below and they can see their house before they start falling. Swing from above and make them eat dirt. :smallamused:

The last change I would make would actually be to buff it a little by allowing it to work with non-two-handed weapons. I get that there's the whole "bat swing" thing with a two handed warhammer, but I have a soft spot for Monks and monsters and would like to use it with punches and claws and such.

Looking particularly for metagame stuff- not metamagic, but fourth-wall-breaking stuff. I suggested a paladin's Oath of the Fourth Wall in another thread, to give an idea.

Will be grateful for anything though!

I've got this one.

Blackhawk Companion
Blackhawks are specially trained combat hawks, trained for war. Those who can tame one earn a loyal and deadly ally.
Prerequisites: BAB +4, Animal Companion class feature
Benefits: Your may take a Blackhawk as an animal companion. Treat this creature as a Hawk (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/monsters/hawk.htm), with the following changes. Effective Druid Level: If you are not a Druid, your effective Druid level for the purpose of determining your Blackhawk's power is equal to your class level which advances your animal companion. For example, a level 6 Ranger is treated as a level 6 Druid for the purpose of measuring his Blackhawk's power. This ability has no effect if you are a Druid. Flanking: Blackhawks are trained to flank enemies in combat. When you and your Blackhawk are flanking an enemy, you both receive double the benefit (i.e. +4 to attacks instead of +2). Treat the Blackhawk's reach as 5 for flanking purposes. Sighting: You and your Blackhawk have trained to hunt together, and it can help signal the direction of fleeing prey. If your Blackhawk has line of sight to a target, you gain +2 to ranged attack rolls against that target. If you have the Favored Enemy class feature, this bonus is doubled (+4). Diving Charge: A Blackhawk receives the Diving Charge feat (Races of the Wild) as a bonus feat. Perfect Maneuverability: Unlike the ordinary hawk, the Blackhawk has perfect maneuverability.In all other respects, treat the Blackhawk as an ordinary animal companion.
Normal: Ordinarily, animal companions are selected from the animal companion list, and non-Druids take a reduced Druid level for their advancement.

I feel like it's a bit underwhelming for a feat, but I'm not sure what else I could add. The goal is to make an avian animal companion that's effective in combat, but I feel like I'm coming up short.

Made adjustments to allow for different weapon types but they deal decreasing damage based on what kind of weapon so you can totally Falcon Punch with it now. Still not allowing it with natural weapons other than Unarmed Strike.

Give it the Diving Charge feat. That way it does extra damage based on how high it dove from.

[Red Fel]

Did that, and added perfect maneuverability, because a good hunting bird should be able to pull a u-turn in midair.

While charging. Definately while charging. Is there a feat for that?

Oh, and Flyby Attack. We don't want it getting crunched.

[Troacctid]

Hawks are tiny size with no reach, so flanking may prove difficult for them.

[illyahr]

He put in the description that they are treated as having a 5' reach for the purposes of flanking.

[Red Fel]

He put in the description that they are treated as having a 5' reach for the purposes of flanking.

Precisely. I wanted to create something similar to the Knight of the Raven's Harrier ability, but decided to go with a shared flanking bonus for some reason.

Dire Stirge's Bite
You've learned well from the insects.
Requirements: Bite natural attack, Improved Natural Attack, Improved Grapple.
Benefit:When you constrict or bite a foe you're grappling, you may have the target make a fortitude save. If they fail, you may deal 2 points of constition damage. If you deal constitution damage this way, you heal HP equal to the target's Hit Dice. The save is strength based (10 + 1/2 HD +Strength modifier).

Neat! Permission granted.

Also, I would be all over a GitP regulars as soulmelds/veils. In fact....
If Master of Ceremonies Snowbluff starts the thread, this coming Friday we could hold a vote for all the veils made using the Akashic Mysteries rules, and the best one could be featured in the upcoming Supplemental release, with an honorable mention for both the author and the forum-goer the veil is based on in the foreword. How's that sound?

[PsyBomb]

I'm slightly biased, but would LOVE to do soulmelds/veils

[IZ42]

Maneuvers and/or soulmelds would be fine, but I'm not experienced with soulmelds really. I think Elder Evils would be extremely fun, and I might actually have an idea for an Elder Evil based on Red Fel (psst... It might have something to do with your Deity entry. Just saying.), though I do agree that it would be a ton of work.


Also, can we please stop contemplating using me as a soul harvesting source and general sacrifice for all your nefarious schemes? With your bothering me incessantly, I barely have enough to time to do ANYTHING.

Oh by the way, I'm back from the competition. My orchestra got Superior Rating, Best in class, and my school got overall outstanding. Pretty happy about that, even factoring in the wicked sunburn I have because I forgot to sunscreen my neck.

Just saying.), though I do agree that it would be a ton of work.


Also, can we please stop contemplating using me as a soul harvesting source and general sacrifice for all your nefarious schemes? With your bothering me incessantly, I barely have enough to time to do ANYTHING.

Oh by the way, I'm back from the competition. My orchestra got Superior Rating, Best in class, and my school got overall outstanding. Pretty happy about that, even factoring in the wicked sunburn I have because I forgot to sunscreen my neck.

Sunburns are rough. My second to last day of my honeymoon in the Caribbean I got a wicked sunburn playing on the beach in St. Maarten, and now my skin is flaking away from my forehead and shoulders, leaving behind only molten fire and ineffable pain.

Ooh! If we do the soulmelds/veils thing, I may need to do one with the [Pain] and [Fire] descriptors that allows you to torture someone with a horrific sunburn.... Anyone think of a poster who'd be accurately described as a living sunburn? (Actually, don't answer that....)

I dunno... a certain banned user could get like that. Name will be restricted for confidentiality.

Loyal protect me! He's doing it again!
Never fear! The paladins here.


I leave you alone again, and what happens? I'd expect this from Snowbluff, but LP, you're supposed to be Lawful. You had one job to do, man!
Sorry if I am busy upholding (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showsinglepost.php?p=19160315&postcount=208) what little structure remains in this thread!


So this thread was pretty successful. The shorter form entries are easier to work with, right? What hsould the next one be?
Templates, maneuvers, class features, monsters, etc.

Oh, I just started Rozen Maiden at your request.


Hmm... Have we done Maneuvers yet? I don't recall. That could be a thing.
Yessss.

Also, I finished Helsing Abridged. Very funny. Still, the best part was "Huh, suddenly I smell the stench of hypocrisy." I pretty much died a little.


But think of the fun of writing LoyalPaladin up as an Elder Evil...
I need a color for Lawful Good/Lawful Evil... Maybe bold purple or italic gray...


What, I'm not enough for everyone?
One could argue that you've inspired them to be more like you.

I also watched Megamind this weekend for the first time in a while. It has refreshed my memory of his voice, now it will be even harder to not read your posts in Megamind's voice...


Oh by the way, I'm back from the competition. My orchestra got Superior Rating, Best in class, and my school got overall outstanding.
I am proud of you IZ. Jolly good show.

[Snowbluff]

:o Paladin, you're watching Rozen Maiden? To the anime thread!

And congratulations to IZ42. I sure am glad that my ritual sacrifices on his behalf were not in vain!

Neat! Permission granted.

Also, I would be all over a GitP regulars as soulmelds/veils. In fact....
If Master of Ceremonies Snowbluff starts the thread, this coming Friday we could hold a vote for all the veils made using the Akashic Mysteries rules, and the best one could be featured in the upcoming Supplemental release, with an honorable mention for both the author and the forum-goer the veil is based on in the foreword. How's that sound?
That'd be damn neat.
I'll put something up tomorrow.

Can we get a little tidbit describing veils in relation to souls melds (ie, which classes are equivalent or similiar to which meldshaping class, which terms mean what) for the purpose of the thread forward, so I can quote it for the benefit of the writers?

Haha. I will do that, perhaps.

You're trying to be threatening. But I know how desperate you are to share your love of Rozen Maiden!

I was definitely just showing off Suigintou's verbal quirk.

In DSP's Akashic Mysteries, "Veils" take the place of soulmelds, and the characters that previously would have been referred to as meldshapers are now called veilweavers. Veils work very similarly to soulmelds, but they do not interfere with item slots. Essentia is now simply Essence. Formatting between veils and soulmelds is close enough to identical that if you can write up one, you should be able to do the other. For copyright and ease of use reasons, DSP doesn't use the Heart/Crown/etc. verbage, instead just categorizing veils by the slot(s) they occupy (Hands, Feet, Wrist, etc.)
The three new Akashic classes are:

The Vizier: The Akashic "wizard", the Vizier steps into the shoes previously filled by the Incarnate. Leaning towards AoE and control effects, the Vizier is an Int-based veilweaver who has a special veil slot for Ring veils, and can eventually shape a ring veil on each hand.

The Guru: Lacking a direct analogue in MoI, the Guru is the Akashic skill-monkey. Gurus are Wis-based combatants who gain a special ability called Gentle Touch that allows them to deal additional damage with their selection of Philosophy weapons, though all this damage is converted to nonlethal (subdual). Gurus learn how to focus this damage into combat-oriented debuffs, and unlock the ability to use Gentle Touch even against undead and constructs. Guru veils are predominantly focused on technical or reactive abilities (for example, there's a Belt veil that can divert attacks that would drop them below zero 1/round, and a Headband veil that can reflect attacks that would daze or stun the veilweaver).

The Daevic: The Daevic is like a combination of the Soulborn and the Totemist. Melee brutes with a large array of natural attack veils and veils designed to facilitate various combat styles, the Cha-based Daevics gain their powers by bonding with Akashic outsiders called daeva who represent primal emotional forces called Passions (Desire, Dominion, Wrath). Desire Daevics rely more heavily on their special abilities and focus on switch-hitting with thrown weapons, Dominion Daevics are better at sword and board and focus on either coordinating allies or cowing enemies, and Wrath Daevics rip **** apart with natural attacks or massively amplified Vital Strikes. Half of a Daevic's veils are actually the physical body of their daeva, and are selected from a preset list associated with their daeva's Passion. The others are freely chosen from the Daevic veil list.

Ssalarn's Rebalance

Prerequisite: Character level 9
You look back upon the mistakes of the past and correct them, bringing yourself back into balance.
Benefit: Upon taking this feat, you receive the benefit of the psychic reformation power. You can use this effect again, once per level with an hour of concentration. You do not pay any of the costs of the power or take any penalties from this use.Additionally, you may replace any rolled hit points gained from levels or racial hit dice with the average for the die used. This effect is retroactive and can immediately be used to bring all prior HD up to average.

Given Ssalarn's work in updating 3.5 sub-systems to PF, I thought it appropriate to make a feat for updating characters.

I am totally behind a veil-contest. Maybe I can cheat and apply ones I've already written to different forum members in a desperate attempt for publication! :belkar:

You and me both. I have material written for four separate people already, including Vizier and Guru versions of Daevic Essence that change with Path/Philosophy. You are the Guru one, by the way.
