Keeper of Forbidden Lore (Abyssal Heritor)

[schreier]

Based on reading - it seems like any character can take the feat, and that character can be any alignment (until they take a second abyssal heritor feat) ...

But it's based on "In some cases, this lingering influence manifests later in life, often spontaneously when the character undergoes a stressful period, or when he gains skill or power from other sources. At such moments, his latent demonic heritage can come to the fore in shocking ways, transforming him into an Abyssal heritor. The manifestation of a dormant demonic heritage is modeled by the Abyssal heritor feats."

Rules wise, it seems like a warforged or homunculus could take one feat (for example - Keeper of Forbidden Lore) ... I would think that it could somehow be woven into the creation of the construct?

Am I missing anything?

Sometimes there's a deal on demon coal, and artificer be like, what's the worst that could happen?

Abyssal chaos doesn’t need your rules, man.

Oh the fact that Warforged lack a general line preventing them from taking "bloodline" related stuff is well known. As for a Homunculus, well if whatever is letting you add feats to it lacks any such line, then once again the only thing preventing you is the DM. Who is the person to ask- you're already making a magical construct of magic-ness, which can do pretty much anything you want except have a Con score, and if the "heritage" feats that lack any text preventing access are properly balanced as feats (and the way you're picking feats for your minion) won't cause any problems on their own, there's no reason to say no, unless the DM wants those feats to actually be restricted to people with bloodlines rather than representing improved construct abilities.

Dragonmarks are about the only one that actually specifies the available races. Even Fey and Fiendish Heritage from Complete Mage (which give some pretty decent SLAs at just 2/3 feats at 6/9 HD) are perfectly valid.
