It's not past the necromancy limit for this thread (https://forums.giantitp.com/showthread.php?634504-Ways-to-cover-more-creatures-in-a-Vitalist-s-Collective&p=25151944#post25151944), but I figure that if the preference is in general to start new ones rather than revive old ones, this is enough of a divergence on the topic to warrant a new thread.

I was contemplating the Thrallherd (https://www.d20pfsrd.com/alternative-rule-systems/psionics-unleashed/psionic-prestige-classes/thrallherd/) PrC and the fact that having a Collective satisfies one of the requirements to get into it. I notice that it doesn't have any actual advancement for the Collective, but that's resolvable by an existing feat.

I am, however, wondering just how broken it is if you make Believers not count against the Collective limit. Since it sounds delightful and full of neat ways to use it to me, I am imagining "pretty darned broken," but I thought I'd run it past the hive mind of the forums.

I'm proposing something like this:

New feat: Collective Belief
Prerequisites: Must have the collective feature and the thrallherd feature
Benefit: When your believers are members of your collective, they do not count against the number of members your collective may have.


Note: this does not make your Thrall fail to count.
