Wraith from Stargate?
does anyone know where to find a Wraith race, from Stargate Atlantis, for D&D 3.5?

Re: Wraith from Stargate?
There was a Stargate D20 book printed but it only covered the first six seasons of SG1. I think you'll probably just have to break their abilities down to homebrew them.

Re: Wraith from Stargate?
Actually, there was a fan-released homebrew supplement for the first one or two (or perhaps three) seasons of Stargate Atlantis. I don't know if it's still around, though - it was pretty old/rare when I stumbled across it.

Re: Wraith from Stargate?
If I were going to stat them up i'd probably give them some kind of Con Drain ability like that of an undead, But which allowed them to use the drained life force to either replenish their own reserves or to provide suplimentary power points for a range of psionic abilities. (I don't know if some sort of Psi-drain already exists, it wouldn't suprise me if it did.) Wraith at full strength still feed, and still grow more powerful as a result of feeding, so its not all about replenishing health.
Time is but a pattern in the currents of causality,
an ever changing present that determines our reality,
the past we see as history, the future seed with prophecy,
and all the time we think on time our time is passing constantly.

Re: Wraith from Stargate?
Yeah, Wraith would definitely be a psionic race with a level adjustment, since every Wraith ever encountered is a powerful threat. I definitely agree with a Con drain ability that can replenish power points, and some psi-like abilities that they get naturally. Something that creates illusions, something that heals, something that buffs Strength and Con, something like Suggestion. That would be a fun race to play, actually.

Re: Wraith from Stargate?
Hm, and a racial power with unlimited number of uses of Mindlink, provided the target is an Wraith, I think fits.
And to balance it, the presense is simpler to detect by psionic characters/creatures with psionics.
Also the Thought eater/Thought slayer, and I remember the 2. ed brain mole HAD power point stealing abilities too(is it around still?), and could hurt, and kill trough drain, also possible to use as inspiration for homebrew Wraiths.
My thought is something like, keep the psionic class points in a common pool, make a racial "food energy" pool who racial abilites feeds off, and who is consumed 1 point a day as norishment, and who could be burned as PP too in emergency. But, is it's lifepower, something similiar to Vampires in VoD.
