While I was looking for for some new Unearthed Arcana content, I bumped into this bit of homebrewed content: https://www.reddit.com/r/UnearthedArcana/comments/6t3nv4/epic_destinies_part_1_of_4_playtest_release/
On a quick glance, nothing seems too gamebreaking for a 20+ game, besides the many "respawn a day after being killed" options, and even those aren't too much for a party with high level magic facing enemies with equally powerful magic... The Epic Destiny classes are of 5th levels each, which is nice if you want to prolong your game a bit before retiring the characters...
But I am curious... how would you feel about a character taking more than one of those? I mean, I see no reason at all a Draconic Incarnation who has fully transitioned into a dragon wouldn't want to become a Lorekeeper (he/she needs some way to spend his/her newly adquired eternal life, doesn't he/she?), or a Lich wouldn't want to become master of his own Astral Domain...
So, what do you think about that? Would having more than one Epic Destiny be ridiculous, or not?
