Okay, so that's fixed.

So, what is a template? It's a... uh...

Well, it has abilities, CR/LA adjustment (Please have both), abilities modifiers, backstory, it might change your type, they usually only modify certain creature ("This template can be applied to Monstrous Humanoids, Humanoids, and Aberrations with spines), and are inherited (Like being me) or acquired (like Lich).

Make sure to get permission and to give your own permission. :smallwink:

All right, so, I was looking over the permapermissions thread, and I noticed that a certain evil overlord (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showsinglepost.php?p=19878362&postcount=9) had given us his permapermission. So, I decided to try and see what I could do with him as a template, and this is the result. (This is my first time creating a template, so let's hope I do okay...)

Red Fiend of the Fel Lands

What is the nature of evil?

This question has been asked for as long as anyone can remember. Why does it exist? What purpose does it serve? The answer seems to elude even the best of minds. But perhaps they are not willing to truly seek the answer.

There are those willing to do so, however. And for those, the path soon becomes clear. They find themselves drawn to the Sect of the Fel Lands, a secret organization that knows the secrets of Good and Evil, and pay service to the darkest (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showsinglepost.php?p=19273737&postcount=25) of evils (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showsinglepost.php?p=19273870&postcount=28). In order to join this loose sect, they must undergo a ritual that transforms them into an agent of Evil. But by doing so, they gain forbidden knowledge that they can then use as they see fit.

Red Fiends look superficially the same as the race they once were, but they have been changed, touched by Evil down to their very core. Ocasionally, one will rise to infamy as a tyrannical ruler or a bloodthirsty killer. Most Red Fiends, however, are far more subtle, prefering to remain in the shadows away from the watchful eyes of paladins and clerics who would seek to destroy them. Despite their evil nature, they are often helpful, dispensing advice and wisdom to any who seek it. But no one knows what their true goals might be...

Red Fiend of the Fel Lands is an acquired template that can be added to any living, corpreal creature, with an Intelligence score of at least 3, hereafter referred to as the base creature. A Red Fiend uses all the base creature's statistics and special abilities, except as noted here.

Size and Type: Type changes to Outsider, and it gains the Evil subtype, along with other appropriate alignment subtypes (Lawful or Chaotic), if any. If the base creature is native to the Material Plane, it also gains the Native subtype. Size is unchanged. Do not recalculate base attack bonus, Hit Dice, or saves.

Armor Class: A Red Fiend has a constant profane bonus to their AC, equal to their Charisma modifier. (Minimum +1)

Special Attacks: A Red Fiend retains all the base creature's special attacks, and gains the following:

Keen Insight (Ex): Once per encounter (or at will, if not in an encounter), a Red Fiend may take a full-round action to study a single opponent. At the end of this observation, they must attempt an Intelligence check, with a DC equal to the opponent's HD or CR, whichever is higher. If the Red Fiend succeeds on this check, they gain an insight bonus on attacks rolls, damage rolls, and skill checks on the opposing creature equal to the Red Fiend's Intelligence modifier for the duration of the encounter (or, if not in an encounter, a number of minutes equal to their Intelligence modifier). If they fail this check, their Keen Insight is expended, and they may not attempt to use it on the same creature for 24 hours.

In addition, if the Red Fiend succeeds on the check by 5 or more, they know about all special attacks and qualities the creature possesses, such as Damage Reduction, breath weapons, Spell Resistance, Smites, etc.

Spell-Like Abilities: A Red Fiend with an Intelligence or Charisma score of 8 or more knows the following spell-like abilities. Caster level is equal to the Red Fiend's HD, and save DCs are 11+the Red Fiend's Intelligence or Charisma modifier, whichever is higher, unless otherwise noted.

At will: Detect Alignment, Comprehend Languages

3/Day: Protection From Good

In addition, they gain spell-like abilities based on their HD:

HD 6 or more: Charm Person 3/Day, Nondetection 1/Day (DC 15+HD)

HD 11 or more: Blasphemy 1/Day, Unholy Aura 1/Day

Special Qualities: A Red Fiend retains all the base creature's special qualities, and gains the following:

Darkvision 60 feet
Resistance to fire 10, cold 10, and electricity 5
Damage Reduction 5/Good (if 10 HD or less), 10/Good and Magic (if 11-20 HD), or 15/Good and Epic (if 21 HD or more)
A Red Fiend's attacks are treated as their alignment for the purposes of overcoming Damage Reduction
Spell Resistance equal to the Red Fiend's HD+5

Abilities: Increase from the base creature as follows: Dex +2, Int +6, Wis +4, Cha +4

Skills: A Red Fiend has a +10 racial bonus on Diplomacy, and it is always considered a class skill for them. They also have a racial +6 bonus on any Knowledge skills that are class skills for them.

Enviroment: Same as the base creature

Organization: Same as the base creature

Challenge Rating: As the base creature +2 (if 10 or less HD), or +3 (if 11 or more HD)

Treasure: Same as base creature

Alignment: Change to Evil (any). Red Fiends tend to be Lawful, but Neutral or Chaotic Red Fiends are not unheard of.

Advancement: Same as the base creature

Level Adjustment: +3

Mangled Tongue

Mangled tongue is an inherited template which can be bestowed upon a living creature's bloodline via the ritual of the Mangled Tongue.

A mangled tongue uses all the base creature’s statistics and special abilities except as noted here.

Special Attacks:

Natural Utterer: A Mangled Tongue's natural inclination to truespeech grants them a single utterance of the Lexicon of the Evolving Mind with a level up to 1 + 1/5 RHD they possess. They use 1/2 their character level plus their truenamer level as their effective CL for this utterance.

Special Qualities:

Cursed Lineage: A Mangled Tongue's bloodline is cursed with a curse that is passed along to their descendants. Any child whose parent is a Mangled Tongue gains the Mangled Tongue template. In addition those under this curse suffer a -4 penalty on saves versus other curses.

True Tongue: A Mangled Tongue cannot speak except in the language of truespeech. They cannot talk normally, and cannot perform activities that require speech except truespeak. A Mangle Tongue gains a +4 racial bonus to Truespeak checks. Truespeak is always a class skill for a Mangled Tongue.

Everything else is the same as base creature.

Also... feat...

Words that Eat Themselves
Your words can be uttered while still holding power.
Prerequisites: Truespeak 8 ranks, ability to speak 3 or more utterances.
Benefit: The Law of Sequence no longer applies to you. You may have 2 or more instances of the same utterance active at one time.

Ritual of the Mangled Tongue:

This ritual can only be performed by a character capable of speaking 5th level utterances of the mind that is undergoing the process of evolution and has at least 20 ranks in Truespeak, Knowledge (Arcana), and Spellcraft. It requires 8 hours a day for 8 days and 125 GP of special incense each day, as well as 4 assistants with at least 8 ranks in Truespeak. To perform the ritual you must know a target's personal truename and recite it once during each day (making the check successfully) one failure forces you to restart the ritual completely. The target must make 8 Will saves (DC 20 + your Int) at -2, if all are successful the curse fails to hold. Otherwise you place a curse upon the target's blood line, the curse of the mangled tongue. Any creature that the target serves as the biological father/mother of from this point further is born with the Mangled Tongue template. This curse can be lifted via a Wish spell, or a Miracle spell, or by killing the creature that led the ritual and using their blood and viscera to perform a counter ritual (requires Knowledge (arcana) 20 ranks, and Spellcraft 20 ranks).

Oh. My. Hype.

This is absolutely delicious. Absolutely delicious. Fantastic emphasis on Intelligence, Charisma, and people-reading. I love the profane AC bonus. (Eat your heart out, Divine Grace. Here, use my spoon.) And rather uniquely, I'm intrigued by the fact that it's Outsider (Evil), and not Outsider (Evil, Lawful). I also thought it was particularly clever that your wording strongly implied that it could be taken by Outsiders - a part of me sees an Inevitable taking this template. That part of me sees it, and grins with far too many teeth.

The abilities that scale with HD are a great touch, and the various boosts, resistances, DR and SR help to make it feel like it's worth the LA +3.

Well played. Well played, indeed.

Rulerborn

Rulerborn is an inherited template which can be applied to any creature. What causes rulerborns to be born is unknown, but from time to time they rise from the ranks of their kindred.

Size and Type: Animals or vermin with this template become magical beasts, but otherwise the creature type is unchanged. Size is unchanged.

Armor Class: Rulerborn creatures gain a deflection bonus to AC equal to their Charisma modifier.

Special Attacks:

Born Leader (Ex): A rulerborn is evidently a ruler and gains a +4 bonus to Leadership, and may use their ECL instead of character level for Leadership.

Charm Kin (Su): Any creature which talks to a rulerborn for 1 minute and shares a type with them must make a Will save (DC 10 + 1/2 HD + Cha modifier) or be charmed by the rulerborn for 1 hour; this is a mind-affecting effect but ignores type based immunities. A successful save against this ability grants immunity to it for 24 hours.

Command the Mindless (Su): As a standard action a rulerborn can suborn the will of a mindless creature which shares a type with them. The creature becomes the utter servant of the rulerborn permanently or until the rulerborn dismisses them. A rulerborn can only command 1 creature this way + 1 creature per 3 hit dice.

Special Quality

The King's Will (Ex): A rulerborn gains a +6 racial bonus to saves versus Charm and enchantment (compulsion) effects that grant the caster ongoing control over the subject, such as dominate person.

Abilities: Int increases to 4 (-6 racial modifier) if lower and they lose any mindless trait they may possess, +6 Charisma.

Feats: A formerly mindless rulerborn gains feats for its hit dice as normal.

Skills: A rulerborn gains a +4 racial bonus on Bluff, Diplomacy, Gather Information, Knowledge (local), Knowledge (nobility and royalty), and Sense Motive checks. A formerly mindless rulerborn gains skill points based upon its type.

Alignment: Always Lawful.

CR: +1.

LA: +3.

Thank you, O Dark Master of Evil.

Seriously, though, thanks. I'm glad you're pleased with my work. :smallsmile: I considered having the alignment changed to Lawful Evil always, but I thought that what I wrote would really work with any sort of Evil, so I went with that instead.

Anyways, I've actually updated the template a bit to clarify a few things, and add in some other things I forgot - nothing huge, just a few things I forgot to add to it when I first wrote it, such as how the template deals with Law and Chaos, a secondary effect for Keen Insight, and a few spelling fixes.

Rudisplorkian (Applied Template)

Explanation: Beings who gaze too long into an abyss find the abyss to gaze back into them. So, too it is with tomes of rules. Beings whose skin is inscribed with ancient, unknowable 'loopholes' in the laws of reality, Rudisplorkians can be born of any race.

Size, Type and HD: Same, though it gains the Extraplanar subtype. If banished, it finds its way back to the transient plane of [Insert synonym with Rules-Lawyering here].
Abilities:
Loophole (Su): Through exploiting the weaknesses in the laws that govern reality, a Rudisplorkian can emulate any spell once per day which has a level equal to their HD divided by three plus one. This spell does not need to be chosen until then, and must be from the Sorcerer, Wizard, or Cleric spell list. Each use of this ability deals 1d4 constitution damage to the Rudisplorkian. It uses the Rudisplorkian's highest mental stat (intelligence, wisdom, or charisma) as its primary stat for the purpose of determining save DC. Caster level is equal to the Rudisplorkian's hit dice.
Madness (Su): Rudisplorkians are immune to ability drain that targets mental stats (intelligence, wisdom or charisma) and are immune to mind-affecting spells and abilities.

Rudisplorkians have spell resistance equal to their HD + 11.

Abilities: +2 Int, +2 Wisdom, +2 Charisma.
Challenge Rating: HD 1-6 +2, 7-12 +3, 13+ +4.

Phoenix Walker

Phoenix Walker is an acquired template that can be applied to any living or undead creature and is obtained through dying in an Astral-fire Storm and being resurrected once more.

Size and Type: Animals or vermin with this template become magical beasts, but otherwise the creature type is unchanged. Size is unchanged. Their home plane is considered to be the Astral Plane.

Speed: A Phoenix Walker's speed improves by 10 ft, and any flight speed they possess including that from spells or magic items is increased by 20 ft.

Special Qualities:

Astral Fire Cloak (Su): A Phoenix Walker is surrounded by the same astral fires which killed them. Whenever a creature strikes a Phoenix Walker with a melee attack with a non-reach weapon they take 1 untyped damage per character level of the Phoenix Walker, if they score a critical hit on the Phoenix Walker they also suffer 1 point of Charisma damage.

I am a shadow. Im semi-real, and I am to be shaped as others see fit, If I am remembered in the first place.
You know, this inspired me.

Xuldarinar are dark spirits nesting in the Shadow Plane. Once the souls of Evil giants, they were banished and imprisoned in the shadow after their deaths as the result of an ancient curse. There, they spent millenia thinking about how best to take their revenge. They came to the conclusion that they needed to rewrite the features of reality to better suit their thirst for power : they call this project the Great Homebrewing. Others, however, reflected on their past deeds and atoned. These rare Xuldarinar use their homebrewing ability to improve the other Giants' existence. In both cases, they latch unto unsuspecting Giant travelers from the Material Plane and merge with their essence, essentially taking control of their bodies. They then use them as a means of return to the Material Plane, and as a conduit for their work.

A Xuldarinar resembles the Giant it possessed, but it is permanently shrouded in a dark mist, and thus only its outline is visible.

Creating A Xuldarinar
"Xuldarinar" is an acquired template that can be added to any Giant.

A Xuldarinar uses all the base creature’s statistics and special abilities except as noted here.

Size and Type
The creature’s type and size are unchanged. It gains the (Augmented) subtype.

Speed
Xuldarinar gain a fly speed equal to their land speed, with perfect maneuverability.

Armor Class
The base creature's natural armor improves by +3.

Special Attacks
A Xuldarinar retains all the special attacks of the base creature. In addition, it gains the special attacks described below. The save DC against a special attack is equal to 10 + ½ Xuldarinar’s HD + Xuldarinar’s Cha modifier unless otherwise noted.

Darkness as a spell-like ability, centered on itself, 3/day.

Homebrew Balance (Su) : The Xuldarinar is able to warp reality using only the power of its mind. Once per day, it may designate a target (it may choose itself as a target). By concentrating for one full minute, it can temporarily (one hour per the Xuldarinar's HD) imbue the target with a special attack chosen among Breath Weapon, Frightful Presence and Poison, or a special quality chosen among the following : Damage Reduction 10/+1, Immunity to Cold and Fire, Fast Healing 5, or Spell Resistance 20. It may also remove any one of those special attacks and special qualities possessed by a creature. A successful Will save negates.

Special Qualities
A Xuldarinar has all the special qualities of the base creature as well as those described below.

Darkness Mastery (ex): Whenever the illumination is shadowy or less, a Xuldarinar gains a +3 Deflection bonus to Armor Class and a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls.

Homebrew affinity (Ex) : A Xuldarinar passively and immediately detects homebrew, as a permanent Detect Homebrew spell. When fighting against a creature with any homebrew features, a Xuldarinar gains a +2 morale bonus on attack and damage rolls.

Homebrew Toughness (Ex) : Every homebrew material used in a Xuldarinar's build (including the Xuldarinar template itself) grants him 3 bonus hit points.

Abilities
The base creature's Charisma and Intelligence increase by +4 each.

Skills
Xuldarinar have a +8 racial bonus on Diplomacy, Hide, Knowledge (metagame) and Sense Motive checks. Otherwise same as the base creature.

Environment
These sinister creatures consider the whole of the Material Plane to be their Playground.

Organization
Solitary or duo. Giants coming to the Shadow Plane are pretty rare, after all.

Challenge Rating
Same as the base creature +2.

Treasure
1d6 homebrew ideas.

Alignment
Usually either Neutral Good or Neutral Evil.

Level Adjustment
Same as the base creature +3.

Rulerborn

Rulerborn is an inherited template which can be applied to any creature. What causes rulerborns to be born is unknown, but from time to time they rise from the ranks of their kindred.

Size and Type: Animals or vermin with this template become magical beasts, but otherwise the creature type is unchanged. Size is unchanged.

Armor Class: Rulerborn creatures gain a deflection bonus to AC equal to their Charisma modifier.

Special Attacks:

Born Leader (Ex): A rulerborn is evidently a ruler and gains a +4 bonus to Leadership, and may use their ECL instead of character level for Leadership.

Charm Kin (Su): Any creature which talks to a rulerborn for 1 minute and shares a type with them must make a Will save (DC 10 + 1/2 HD + Cha modifier) or be charmed by the rulerborn for 1 hour; this is a mind-affecting effect but ignores type based immunities. A successful save against this ability grants immunity to it for 24 hours.

Command the Mindless (Su): As a standard action a rulerborn can suborn the will of a mindless creature which shares a type with them. The creature becomes the utter servant of the rulerborn permanently or until the rulerborn dismisses them. A rulerborn can only command 1 creature this way + 1 creature per 3 hit dice.

Special Quality

The King's Will (Ex): A rulerborn gains a +6 racial bonus to saves versus Charm and enchantment (compulsion) effects that grant the caster ongoing control over the subject, such as dominate person.

Abilities: Int increases to 4 (-6 racial modifier) if lower and they lose any mindless trait they may possess, +6 Charisma.

Feats: A formerly mindless rulerborn gains feats for its hit dice as normal.

Skills: A rulerborn gains a +4 racial bonus on Bluff, Diplomacy, Gather Information, Knowledge (local), Knowledge (nobility and royalty), and Sense Motive checks. A formerly mindless rulerborn gains skill points based upon its type.

Alignment: Always Lawful.

CR: +1.

LA: +3.

I love it!

Truest fear, I'd say Gold inspires as much awe as a Red. It's sort of like a grand religious temple; it is a creature of majesty and power regardless of whether it would use that power to help or destroy. Then again Golds are kind of... my mind goes to censored words. Of the three LG dragons golds are the only one without guidelines for what makes them L or G, and are just sort of big, greedy lizards who we are informed are the ultimate mortal force of good.

"Gold dragons are graceful, sinuous, and wise. They hate injustice and foul play, often embarking on self-appointed quests to promote good."

You never see them on these quests, though, and if they do them why don't they get results? They're the strongest things in Core. I think my problem might come from D&D's tendency to make Good creatures Power+ and Rarity+ compared to Evil (Good is strong but uncommon), which runs into a problem that the PCs are supposed to solve things when you end up with things like Gold Dragons which should be able to and in theory are motivated to do so, so they end up sitting on their piles of gold.

Bronze and Silver get subtler ways of helping (bronze secretly supports good forces in war, silver like to pretend to be human) which gives them interesting neurological quirks which allow them to help in minor ways and still be used more easily.

Then again if I have a big good kingdom it is 90% likely to be ruled by a heavily overworked gold dragon.

Paladesque

Paladesque is an acquired template which is granted by Lawful Good deities upon chosen Lawful Good servants, especially redeemed monsters.

Size and Type: A Paladesque's type changes to Outsider with the Good and Lawful subtypes as well as Augmented (previous type). Do not recalculate BAB, saves, skills, or hit points.

Armor Class: A Paladesque gains a +2 sacred bonus to their Armor Class.

Special Attacks:

Smite Evil (Su): A Paladesque gains the ability to smite evil 1/day + 1/day per 4 hit dice it possesses. A Paladeseque adds their Charisma modifier to hit and Hit Dice to damage when they use this ability.

Great Smite (Su): Once per day a Paladesque with at least 10 hit dice may make a slaying smite. This functions as a regular smite evil except that a struck creature must make a Fortitude save (DC 10 + 1/2 HD + Cha modifier) or be destroyed. This is a death effect unless used on undead which it affects normally despite their lack of Constitution score.

Lay on Hands (Su): A Paladesque can use Lay on Hands as a Paladin of their Hit Dice.

Turn Undead (Su): A Paladesque can turn undead as a cleric 3 levels lower than its hit dice. If a Paladesque has turning from another source their levels in both do not stack and they keep track of the uses of each separately.

Special Qualities:

Divine Grace (Su): A Paladesque gains a bonus to all saving throws equal to their Charisma modifier.

Divine Health (Su): A Paladesque is immune to disease.

Aura of Courage (Su): A Paladesque is immune to fear and allies within 10 ft gain a +4 morale bonus on saves versus fear.

Magic Circle against Evil (Su): A Paladesque can radiate a Magic Circle against Evil (as the spell) for a number of rounds each day equal to twice their Hit Dice. Activating or deactivating this ability is a free action.

Damage Reduction (Su): A Paladesque gains DR 5/evil, increasing to 10/evil if they have 10 or more Hit Dice.

Abilities: A Paladesque gains +4 Str, +2 Con, +4 Wis, and +4 Cha.

Feats: A Paladesque gains 1 Divine Feat as a bonus feat.

Challenge Rating: +2.

Level Adjustment: +4.

Out of curiosity, how do its abilities stack with the corresponding Paladin abilities? For example, does a Paladesque Paladin get double the Lay on Hands uses? Does he enjoy double Divine Grace? Does a Paladesque Cleric add its HD-3 to its Cleric levels for TU calculations?

Also, if they're Good, shouldn't their DR be DR/Evil?

Yes, yes it should be. Fixed that. And now I really have to think about racial turning + cleric levels. I mean Lay on Hands doubling I have no qualms about, but turning doubling could be troublesome... I'm going to add a line clarifying that it is a separate pool (which means... 1 extra DMM Persist) but that you don't add levels so I don't have to figure out the general rule.

Alignment: Any Chaotic
Armor Class: Gain a +3 Lyrical Bonus to armor class
Resistances: Immunity to Sonic, +4 to saves against mind-affecting
Speed: Unchanged
Ability Score Changes: DEX +6, INT +2, CHA +8
Skills: +6 racial bonus to bluff, diplomacy, and gather information, and perform.
Special Abilities:

Distracting Song - All enemies within 10 ft. per HD of the Singing Creature must make a will save (10+1/2 HD+CHA Modifier) or take a -2 to AC, Attack Rolls, Damage Rolls, Saves, Ability Checks, and Skill Checks as they are overwhelmed with the desire to hum along to the song. This is a sound-based effect that is not mind-affecting.
Bardic Aptitude - A singing creature is treated as a bard 4 levels higher for the purposes of Bardic Music and Bardic Performance, as well as qualifying for prestige classes.
Perfect Pitch - A Singing Creature increases the bonuses and save DCs by 2 for their bardic music.

CR: +2 (possibly reasonable, I dunno)

2015-09-28, 03:48 PM

Threadnaught, I choose you! (I give permission as well)

That MasterBall is surprisingly comfortable. Even if it's the tenth you threw at me.

Loophole (Su): Through exploiting the weaknesses in the laws that govern reality, a Rudisplorkian can emulate any spell once per day which has a level equal to their HD divided by three plus one. This spell does not need to be chosen until then, and must be from the Sorcerer, Wizard, or Cleric spell list. Each use of this ability deals 1d4 constitution damage to the Rudisplorkian. It uses the Rudisplorkian's highest mental stat (intelligence, wisdom, or charisma) as its primary stat for the purpose of determining save DC. Caster level is equal to the Rudisplorkian's hit dice.

Boo-urns: Excellent, Spellcasting...
Vegetable: Where's the Druid? Where's the damn Druid!?

Aww. :smallfrown:

Madness (Su): Rudisplorkians are immune to ability drain that targets mental stats (intelligence, wisdom or charisma) and are immune to mind-affecting spells and abilities.

Schu-weet, what makes this ability even better is how it's named after one of my favourite characters. Sheogorath! :smallbiggrin:

Rudisplorkians have spell resistance equal to their HD + 11.

Obvious Avatar reference.

Abilities: +2 Int, +2 Wisdom, +2 Charisma.

My reaction, up to 2:18. (https://youtu.be/ESDAXKC2418?t=1m54s)

LA: [Removed at request of the DM's Association Against Power-Gaming (DMAAPG)]

And continue from 2:18 until 2:26.

Looks like Level Adjustment +2 though. Those crazy DMs think they can stop this just by withholding Level Adjustment. Phrenic is Level Adjustment +2 and it is probably on par with this.

Permission granted, but I doubt I count as regular yet.

Member Rank is Orc

Threadnaught is sure a Pixie got something before.

Master's Eternal Servant (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showsinglepost.php?p=19879998&postcount=26)

Often viewd as victims of a cruel master, most of those who undergo the ritual to become a Master's Eternal Servant do so willingly. During the 24 hours the ritual takes to perform, its subjects head is burnt, until only the skull remains. This cleans the subjects mind of any doubts regarding her master, and is essential for the "dead" part of being an undead servant. Most Eternal Servants are spies, scouts or messengers.

Master's Eternal Servant is an acquired template that can be applied to any humanoid with at least one head. To become a Master's Eternal Servant one must undero a ritual during witch all of ones heads are burnt to the bare bone. The ritual takes 24 hours and either require that the subject makes an oath of service to her (future) master or (if unwilling) is forced to do so. In case of the latter, the subject is granted a will save at the completition of the ritual versus an DC equal to the Leadership Score of the would be Master.

Size and Type: The base creature's type changes to Undead (augmented). Size is unchanged.

Hit Dice and Hit Points: All current and future Hit Dice become d12s.

Special Qualities:

Oath of service (Ex): A Master's Eternal Servant has sworn an oath of service to her Master. Whenever a course of action would hurt the plans of her master, a Master's Eternal Servant is subject to an effect similar to a suggestion presenting a different course of action. A Master's Eternal Servant that disobeys or hinders her master in anyway is subject to a -4 penalty on attack rolls, saves, ability checks, and skill checks until her master casts or has an atonement spell cast on her behalf (a willing Master's Eternal Servant counts as a living creature for any atonement spell cast on her). If a Master's Eternal Servants master dies or no longer requires servitude, most Eternal Servants destroy themselves. In any case, an Eternal Servant without a master looses it's purpose to exist, and either dwells over memories of her lost master, or tries to find a new purposes. In case of the latter, if she succeeds, she makes a new oath of service.

Clear purpose (Ex): The strict obedience of a servant clears the mind, granting a Master's Eternal Servant a +4 bonus to all will saves.

Master's Step (Sp): Striding to fullfill her master's orders, a Master's Eternal Servant may teleport up to 10 feet. She can't bring along any other creature. Activating this ability is an immediate action, and a Master's Eternal Servant can use this spell-like ability a number of times per day equal to her Intelligence bonus (minimum 1). Its equivalent spell level is equal to one-half the Master's Eternal Servants HD (minimum 1st), and the caster level is her HD.

Master's Way (Sp): A Master's Eternal Servant with 5 or more HD may use dimension door as the spell once per week. If she has 10 or more HD she may use this abilitiy once per day insted. The save DC is intelligence based. Caster level is HD.

Abilities: +2 Int, +2 Wis, -2 Cha.

Skills: The lack of facial features grants a Master's Eternal Servant a +4 bonus to bluff checks. She also gets a +4 circumstance bonus on sense motive checks against creatures she beliefes not to be in the service of her master.

Alignment: Any lawful.

Level Adjustment: +2 [not sure about this one at all...]

CR adjustement: If HD below 10: +2; if HD 10 or more: +3 [not sure either...]

So, yeah, my first try... :|

The following is based on a true story.

September 28, 2015
I am writing this now out of concern for my own sanity. I though it would be a simple 2 weeks until I left my underpaid custodial job, but I find myself, 2 work days later, working between the realms of zues and hades. I wonder if wearing a swim suit and sun tan lotion or a flame retardant bomb suit would be more appropriate. I always thought hades' realm would be more gloomy and cold, instead I find fire everywhere. Zues' realm is a huge mess, I am glad I don't have to clean up there, though I did find a chunk of it near hades' realm. I must also frequently pass through Poseiden's realm. There also seems to be one other realm in the area. I can only assume I have gone completely insane or am suffering a fever dream.

Hades' realm is both cold wet and miserable, and hot burning pain. Also that's where the good afterlife is.
Hades himself? Nice guy, he doesn't like it when visitors leave though, but he won't force you to stay unless you're a VIP.

I wouldn't trust Poseidon or Zeus as far as I can throw the twelve Argonauts of Perseus though, especially Judas.

I'd be more inclined to remember how to spell Zues if he wasn't a jerk. Also, strangely enough that was in my phone's auto-correct, even though i have never spelled Zues before now... Zues need that rule of three

September 28, 2015 update
It would appear as though the forth realm belongs to Aphrodite. I never would have imagined that there would be so much pink. At least the pink is used appropriately, i hate pink that is used badly. Like brown, pink should never go with brown. Those fashion people that thought it was popular back a while ago just looked like walking piles of... you know it doesn't matter, the fashion industry will always aspire to be unfashionable, for isn't that what being truly fashionable is? being so obnoxious other people can't look at you? If it isn't they really need to try harder and by harder i mean they actually need to put even 1% of an effort in.

Baucis and Philemon where his kindness to the couple is based upon their treatment of him when he was disguised and a stranger, explicitly because that is how they treat strangers and not based upon knowledge of him as a god?

Ok, that's Ovid so it's actually Jupiter and he did destroy the rest of the town for being jerks who ignored sacred hospitality. Seriously that's the only one where Zeus shows kindness that is not based upon vanity or pride I can think of off the top of my head. Maybe Deucalion's flood where it's less vanity and more a realization that this guy actually respects the gods even after we tried to kill him and a... uh dudes I might have been a jerk moment. Note that Zeus's kind moments are "I won't kill you with a flood like everyone else... in fact have a reward."

Olympian Gods have "fatal" flaws themselves, no matter what the stories say to the contrary. Zeus has hubris, I think we can all agree on this. And also the inability to keep it in his pants, but that's another topic entirely.

To my knowledge that was the point of the Olympian pantheon's inclusion in our collective tabletop RPG. That they have flaws and are more humanized than overdeities.
For those playgroups that prefer it Olympians and others inspired by them are mortal-like enough to be defeatable.
For other playgroups their flaws humanize them enough they can at least be conversed with or characterized as more than an assemblage of pretty lights and congealed moral/ethical values.

it's true, they are just people. That was their entire point in history. Since they were gods and therefore better than people Greeks characterized them to be more human. What is humanity? They said flaws, therefore Greek gods are defined by flaws so massive their mere existence on a human would cause the very universe to have never existed. K, that might be a bit of an exaggeration but before that last bit is the definition of a Greek god. They were very much into tragedies after all.

Dynamic Lecturer

Dynamic Lecturer is an acquired template That can be applied to any creature that is taught by another dynamic lecturer, donates at least 4000 gold to the cause of the teacher's choice, most often to a church or school, and shows up one last day after lessons to pick up a certificate, and possibly give a speech.

Challenge rating: +0

Level Adjustment: +1

edit: btw the new forum reply editor is absolute garbage (i'm talking about th change from before the huge switch over when everything looked different.) Most things about replying have improved but the editing is so much worse, I highly recommend using Microsoft or similar if possible or typing everything out and then editing it, cause dynamic editing is not possible, unless it is because of the scripts that i disabled, but that seems unlikely since i allow the actual site to do stuff.

Apparently, Matilda spent some time after getting killed watching British telly.

Nyssa and Tegan are two companions of the Doctor from the Tom Baker/Peter Davidson era. Tegan's introductory story was the the same one in which Tom Baker's Doctor "died" and became Peter Davidson, which is fairly memorable because it was the first time I'd seen a Doctor regenerate.

I find it hard even now to think of Nyssa and Tegan separately, since even though they were quite different people they had a tendency to keep getting mentioned together, usually as part of the formula "[They've captured/They've got/We have to help/We have to rescue] Nyssa and Tegan". This apparently is because the BBC didn't like Nyssa and kept wanting her removed, but the cast and crew liked her, so the compromise was to sneak her into the script alongside Tegan. Tegan was the "foreign appeal" character because she was Australian, so SHE was safe until they came up with a "better" idea.

I honestly don't remember Adric at all. Even though he's from the same era and the fanbase apparently considers him one of the most annoying and hated characters in the franchise. I guess he was so annoying I blocked him out.

My own country had an odd relationship with classic Who. I remember when I was VERY young it used to be on quite late at night and Tom Baker was the Doctor. Then it got moved to an after-school timeslot and also reverted back to somewhere in the middle of the Jon Pertwee era for some reason.

I don't remember the Sixth Doctor at all. I must have seen him because I do remember his companion Perpugilliam Brown, both because of the silly name (she was meant to be American. Make sense?) and because she was a rather attractive young woman in fairly fanservicey outfits and I used to feel vaguely happy to see her on screen even if I still wasn't mature enough to understand why.

Theif 'Til the End

Some creatures are destined to live their lives as an example of exceptional skill. Blessed by Olidarma for their cunning and sleights of hand, they return the favor by shaking up the world.

Creating A Theif 'Til the End

"Theif 'Til the End" is an acquired template that can be added to any corporeal aberration, animal, dragon, fey, giant, humanoid, magical beast, monstrous humanoid, ooze, plant, or vermin of nonchaotic alignment.

Size and Type: Unchanged

Special Attacks:

Swipe (Ex): Once per day, the creature may use Sleight of Hand as a free action.

Special Qualities:

Seduction (Ex): As a Swashbuckler of the creature's character level.

Seduction (Ex): At 4th level, a swashbuckler has a lascivious way of acquiring knowledge through less than diplomatic channels. A swashbuckler gains an additional use of the Bluff skill called seduce to learn secret. The swashbuckler can use charm, flirtation, or seduction to learn a coveted secret that is known by a nonplayer character. In order for this iteration of the Bluff skill to work, the nonplayer character must find the swashbuckler physically attractive and be in a position to actually know the secret in question. There are five kinds of secrets that can be learned with a seduce to learn secret check . The fewer people that know a secret, the greater their loyalty to keep that secret.
Secret DC* Example
Common 10 Password told to the city guard, known by 16 or more people
Uncommon 20 Identity of thieves' guild leader, known by 9 to 16 people
Valuable 30 A merchant ship hauling exotic goods, known by 5 to 8 people
Deadly 40 Plans to invade a foreign land, known by 3 to 4 people
Unutterable 50 The mental disability of a king, known by 3 or less people

A typical seduce to learn secret check takes 1d4+1 hours and requires seduction. If the check succeeded by 10 or more, the attempt takes 1d4+1x10 minutes and only requires flirtation. If the check succeeded by 20 or more, the attempt takes 1d4+1 minutes and merely requires charm. Retries are not possible as the target becomes too suspicious.

At 9th level, the creature gains gains a +1 bonus on seduce to learn secret checks. This bonus increases by +1 at 13th, 15th, 18th, and 19th level.

Abilities: +2 Dexterity and +2 Charisma.

Environment: Any, usually material plane.

Alignment: Always Chaotic.

Skills: The creature gains a +2 racial bonus to Bluff, Hide (Stealth if PF), Sleight of Hand. These skills are always class skills for the creature.

Level Adjustment/CR: As the base creature +1.

Zaydos, do vampire dragons exist?

This has been answered already, but yes, necronomicon inferior to dracoliches in ways not comparable between vamps and liches.

Draconium

2015-10-15, 03:45 PM

Ironically, the Vampiric Dragon template seems almost better than the normal Vampire template. You gain additional HP based on your HD x4, a Charm voice power along with your Dominate power, you use your hoard instead of a coffin, you aren't subject to the water, garlic, or mirror weaknesses, it can stand sunlight for a number of rounds equal to it's age category, and can always crush a home if they aren't invited it. :smalltongue:

You don't get Spider Climb, Alternate Form, Damage Reduction, a slam attack, or Children of the Night, though, and you can only Energy Drain with your claws and only Blood Drain creatures one size smaller than you or larger.

That... seems overall a better tradeoff. And the LA is lower, too - +5 instead of +8. LA overall would probably be higher, though, since that's on top of your already-existing dragon RHD and LA.

Still, if I had to choose one undead template as a dragon, it would probably be this one. (Zaydos already took Dracolich, after all.)

Still, given the choice, I wouldn't become undead at all. There are other ways to live forever that don't involve my glorious draconic body dying.

Do you live in America? Cause in America we have long standing traditions of terrorism, so much so that sometime after WWII we changed the definition so we couldn't be called terrorists. Seriously, the two nukes we dropped were the exact definition of terrorism until we said that countries can't be terrorists, and then we proceeded to call other countries terrorists... Did i mention that if you look up hypocrisy in the dictionary you will find the united states government?

Oh, and a message to all uncool kids in high school and earlier, you are probably several steps ahead of the cool kids in life.

Do you live in America? Cause in America we have long standing traditions of terrorism, so much so that sometime after WWII we changed the definition so we couldn't be called terrorists. Seriously, the two nukes we dropped were the exact definition of terrorism until we said that countries can't be terrorists, and then we proceeded to call other countries terrorists... Did i mention that if you look up hypocrisy in the dictionary you will find the united states government?

Oh, and a message to all uncool kids in high school and earlier, you are probably several steps ahead of the cool kids in life. You need to understands that schools before college literally have the same social structure as prisons. which means they find things that have no bearing on life at all to create a social hierarchy.

I'm just saying, terrorizing is an American tradition, whether the or not saying that gets me on a watch list cause the government can't admit it.

oh come on, you can describe almost the entire movie if you just watch the sirens first music scene. Then again, i watch movies for the trope analysis rather than plot cause i find it very hard to be surprised by anything after i got lost in tvtropes.com for the first time.

Well, yes, that's true. Spend enough time indulging in stories and it's almost impossible not to notice the queues. But the first musical scene from the sirens doesn't tell you about all the important character growth Sunset goes through.
... Though I agree that in general, MLP: FiM is, in fact, mediocre. Season 3 and season 4 were pretty crud compared to S1, and S5 has been bland all the way through.

I must admit to having no idea as to what those kinds of treats are. My personal preference for snacking tends to go towards lighter meals like yogurt with fresh fruit (not the ****ty pre-packaged yogurt with bits of freeze dried pseudofruit. Real fresh fruit that I put in the yogurt myself), or towards dark chocolate. So I'm slightly out of the loop in regards to things like that.

-Sunset Shimmer parallels Celestia.

Actually pretty spot on; the symbolism is thick there, and none of us will be surprised when it turns out to be blatant. Heck, Sunny has taken Alt-Twi as her student, even.
So the real question, then, is who would be Sunny's parallel?
Celestia is paralleled quite deliberately by Luna (Matronly/Sisterly, Light/Dark, Pure/Tainted, etc).
... Well, that's a question that'll have to wait, I think.

Edit: My good twin is my literal fraternal twin; my opposite in almost every way except gender and height. We only ever get along when we only see eachother once in a blue moon, otherwise we rapidly devolve into first attempting to pick eachother apart with words and debates and then eventually fists.

Yes, I did forget to mention Sunset's new mentorship, yes.

Probably Twilight (pon, not hume)
- She is 'impure' to Twi
- Sunsets goals are very much rooted in the tangible (ie, take over the world), but Twilight's are less so (shown by her human counterpart's goals to seek magic)
- Sunset seems to resent or is jealous of Twilight to a degree. It's kind of glossed over in the end of the movie, though.

Of course, there are other options for different ponies.
- Trixie hasn't taken her revenge for the events of the second movie yet.
- Human counterpart of that jerk from that one season opener hasn't shown up yet.

Now, with my earlier theory, it's all well and good, but the important thing to keep in mind is the possible implications. Does this tell us more about where Sunset is going, or where Celestia has been. Of course, the former is more likely than the latter because of which order the characters were made, but let's take a moment to explore that.

Sunset is a very intense character. She's often frustrated by things outside of her control, which causes her to snap at others on occasion. IN fact, it's this sort of behavior that led to her eventual escape into the human world.

Did Celestia used to have similiar issues?

Waiting a year for movie 4 is going to suck. I never thought I would be interesting in where it's heading.

And adorable to boot. Oh dear.
I don't think her parallel is Twi-Pony, as the characters also overlap a lot. They both excelled at intellectual pursuits and especially magic, share the 'same' friends, and so on.
... Actually, thinking about it, I suspect that Sunset is Paralleled to the combined character of Twilight, where the gaps in one of the Twilights' are filled by the other.
Pony Twilight is pure, Human Twilight is inexperienced in friendship, Pony Twi achieved what Sunset did not, Human Twi is immature in a lot of ways, and so on.

I think Sunset's character shows a different facet than Celestia's, in regard to that.
Celestia is very warm, and her Cutie Mark is in paler colors. Celestia is caring, tender, and comforting, like a warm fireplace, or sunlight on a spring day.
Sunset is very intense, and her Cutie Mark is in darker, more distinct hues instead. Sunset is wild, energetic, and capable of causing pain if she's not careful. Much more like a wildfire, or a solar flare in the midst of the hottest day of summer.
She does have a very clear link to the character of Celestia, but she's definitely not Celestia, no matter how close she is.

K, the movie was decent, though i really didn't like Cadence's character design at all. Just looked all wrong. If that is the first thing i jump on it was either a really really bad design or the move had a lot of good stuff going on for, and i can't think of a lot to complain about so i will go with the latter there.

Personally, don't really have much to contribute to this other than, the parallels between worlds break down when analyzed and i don't think that we will ever see that season opener character in the human world. If we did there would be some major re-characterization.

In general there should probably be some big differences between the worlds since a 1000 year old demi-god is a normal human princaple, presumably at least, and city-states=high schools.

I see something here, the sun is closer to material things and the night is closer to the immaterial, i might suggest a sliding scale of concern for the material world to the immaterial like so:
Celestia>Sunset>Twilight>Luna. Though that might be stretching it a bit. Though adding Luna to the comparison on twilight's end doesn't seem to complicate things at all unless i'm missing something.

I did once build a Thrallherd character who planned to farm the Plane of Mirrors for the oppositely aligned twins that plane generates when a non-native visits their world.
To the point where the process involved putting linked Mirror entries/exits at all of the doorways of a major city.
Helms of Opposite Alignment, Mirrors of Opposition, and Wondrous Items that allow extraplanars to be considered constantly on their home plane were involved.

As such my evil twin, equally as Neutral as I, is likely out and about in the multiverse somewhere. I'm sure he likes light blue cobalt cogworks where I prefer dark blue and we will probably have our worldspanning clockwork armies come to blows over it eventually. It should be glorious.

Anyhow, there's that.
What, do you want a cookie? Why would I care about what you do in your free time?
More seriously, I think you really need to expand on this more. Tsundere was more closely related to defrosting ice queen once upon a time. I think you should illustrate not just motivation, but character development. Of course, it may be more difficult to plan a character's development in an interactive game. It's not like you're fun to be with otherwise.

I'm just waiting for Dragon Nikana like the trash I am, and it doesn't help that I main the fabulous bug ninja. Other than that, I like getting blast damage on my weapon for those sweet procs. Yeah, D Nikana is a lot of fun. You get three options of stance for taste. I like Decisive Judgement.

Also, that went from 0-100-0 real quick.
Whiplash is how I process feelings I can't process correctly.

Yes, yes it does.

Seconded for you are interesting.
:o

All this talk of evil twins has given me an idea for the next thread:

GitP Regulars as Their Evil Twins!

Like the NPC one, but you would build a rough character that is the exact opposite of their online persona. :smallbiggrin:

I'll sit on that one, since NPCs was recent.

Been there. Mine was in my arm, and was cancer... though I didn't know that till it had been removed... friend got on to me for making cancer jokes that day.

Wait what. Like, what the actual what.

In other news, my Orchestra is holding a Halloween Party the 30th (IIRC), and I'm trying to decide whether going Alucard or Heath Ledger's Joker would be more appropriate as to real life me. I can do the creep factor for both, but my frame more resembles Alucard, though Alucard would probably require more work for me to pull together a costume.

As for Nikana stances, I personally like the style of Tranquil Cleave. The best part about the stances is that most of them (excluding air strikes, ground slams, and parkour/style attacks) aren't ridiculously frilly and over the top. Some of them even resemble actual cuts and strikes used by actual practitioners of the weapon. Good on DE for that.

My response to being told "You know that strange lump we removed from your arm a little over 6 weeks ago and had to send to three different labs? It was cancer" is to never eat cottage cheese and make bad cancer jokes all day. I will say it was only technically cancer (as in there was 1 case of it going malignant out of somewhere from 100 to 300 cases and not all doctors agreed it should be considered cancer). It was a thing. It happened. They cut muscle tissue out of my dominant arm. I learned to type primarily with my right hand because I wrote things out by hand before that.

They both sound like fun choices. Joker may be a bit more recognizable, and be a bit easier to put together a costume for. But Alucard has certain qualities that make him far more fun, IMO. I would recommend Alucard, personally.

That's really interesting actually, and slightly scary. I know a girl in my Span III class who had her leg removed at the knee because of cancer. There's also a kid three doors down from me that got hit with a nasty aggressive case of leukemia. Cancer terrifies me, TBH.

Joker would be more recognizable to the school as a whole, but just as many people would recognize Alucard in my friend's group. I'm just not entirely sure.

Why do i have to create an avian template for Oots from scratch??? These wings are a pain to design and the main thing that gets me to stop every time, though making the head and legs don't help much. Then there is the accessories. I'm already a thread late, though it seems that a lot of people are busy/need a break from these, which is pretty understandable.

Edit: posting here makes me think of ponies... which reminds me that Celestia and Luna have some pretty awesome wings that are also fairly simple. I should see if that works as a base.
okay I officially fail my dc 1 will save. can any one tell me wtf is going on?

I do enjoy the D Nikana, but for heavy slashing, my go-to for awhile has been the Scindo P. Especially on my Rhino P.
Some day, I hope manage to farm up Ashe P, though. Ninja cyborg-ninja was my favorite cyborg-ninja right up till I hit end-game and couldn't do as much with him. (PS: Dual Ichor is a beast come late game.)

I am glad you do not have brain cancer, Snow. And that Zaydos managed to avoid the whole issue before it became an issue.
One of my friends is dealing with extremely advanced cancer, and is expected to die before the end of the next year.

The same thing that happens in almost any thread on the playground: It wandered off and came back with friends.
To be more exact, I can also tell you that cancer is not happening, and we're all glad of that.

I don't like how the Scindo looks, so I made my Galatine's blade gold and I'm working on getting more Arcane Avengers to compensate for the lower crit. That way I can use the Galatine, be better than the typical Scindo P user, and call them peasants for having slightly less expensive gear. :smalltongue:

Yeah, well I have to schedule an appointment to get these lipoma remove, and get a part of my hair shaved. Does anyone want a clipping? Because otherwise they're going to the cult.

Fair. I just know that the Scindo Prime lets me hit like a truck and took forever to farm up the blade for.

I just cant wait to get the other 7 avengers I need, and then I'll slap them on a syandana, and cut everything with a Trinpy. It'll be the most beautiful thing in the game with all of the spinning. I'm considering if I want to buy the new cape, or just to use my Prisma Yamako (which fit's Trinpy's design).

TBH, I have problems committing to grinding Warframe enough to get all the syndicate weapons, let alone all the gear I really want.
It just feels tedious after awhile, so I tend to come and go to the game.

As a note I'd had the lump and it was growing for a year. We just weren't sure whether the tumor was benign or malignant till after it was removed, because they had to send it to 3 labs to figure out what it was (I can't remember the full name now, just that there'd been either 150 or 250 cases depending upon what you looked at, that it had about a 20% chance of resurgence within the first 10 years, and had been lethal in 1 case where it had been treated as a cyst... which the doctors almost did and would have if I had not waited longer than I should have to get strange tumor checked on).

Enough about that. Let's talk templates...

Um... not made for this but this might work for Illayhr (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?451196-Dread-Fiddler-%28Skeleton-Template%29).

It just feels tedious after awhile, so I tend to come and go to the game. Well, I leveled my syndicates pretty much as soon as I could, so I could get the Sgammacor (still a sic weapon I don't use enough).

I play every once in a while, when there's new content. That usually means every few weeks unless I'm helping my roommate. Next Tuesday probably means the release of all of the new weapons and stuff on PS4, so I've got something to do.

Fortunately, I have other tedious games to play in the meantime like Star Trek online.

I still grind them whenever I'm on, but usually after 2 hours, it starts to feel ugh. After 4 hours, the parkour kills my wrists because the keyboard commands are rough to pull off. Crouch+sprint+jump+whatever hurts so much when half the keys are a full hands breadth apart and you spam the combo for 3 hours.

I click my right stick for crouch, and L2 (on the shoulder buttons) is my jump.

If I switch to PC, I might still play on a controller. Shooting with a mouse is nice, but platforming with a keyboard... :l

Metal Gear Solid V

Shadow of Mordor

Morphic tide

Template: Morphic

LA/CRA: +3

Effects: Morphic creatures gain (Ex) Fast Healing X, where X is their Constitution, and may shift all points between physical stats as a full round action, with the shift lasting 1 round/HD. If they have Con 50 or greater, they instead gain (Ex) Regeneration X, where X is 1/2 their Con. They may also change their size by up to two size categories away from their default as a separate full round action.

Special: A Morphic creature's age category's durations are halved, physical modifiers from age are doubled and mental modifiers are always negative.(this is what the Morphic Men of my race post had before being partially fixed. It'll be a Feat option later, when I make a coherent post just for their setting fragment. It will likely include an Illithid variant. With Ulitharid Braineater Dragons.)

Requirements: Must be living and have flesh.

Legend: Early forms of the Morphic Men had much greater physical prowess, and their ability to shift their forms was much more available, but they had much shorter lives from their forms being even less stable and the instability caused their minds to fade much sooner. In his attempts to learn how to fix their flaw, their creator made other creatures with it to use as test subjects for improvements and fixes. However, an early batch of test subjects, the first to have non magical regeneration, escaped, as the security measures were made to contain creatures with magical regeneration. The key of this escape was a distorted attempt at cloning a creature Morphic Tide only refers to as 'Big T,' calling this test subject 'Little T.' To this day, the Morphic Men still hunt 'Little T,' as Morphic Tide admits that 'Little T' is the most stable creature with the full Morphic trait set that has ever existed, and likely holds the key to solving their flaws forever. (the reason for calling it 'Little T' is because it has a size reducing template. And yes, it has class levels.)
