Re: Request a Homebrew
This has already been done here: http://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Bladesinger_(3.5e_Class)
Found it on a quick google search while trying to find the 2nd edition bladesinger to see if it was interesting enough to take a crack at it.If my text is blue, I'm being sarcastic.But you already knew that, right?

As you conitnue to scout the misty forest , you are suddenly confronted by a huge razor boar, snarling with fury and ravenous hunger. As you ready your weapons suddenly you hear rumbling in the distance, like a coming storm. It grows louder and more agited with every passing moment aad then the wall of slick black trees is broken through by an immense beast that sends the razor boar flying with a single kick and then faces you. It is not not unlike a elephant with it´s skin of dark and ligt gray but it´s head is much larger and looks mounstrous, not to mention it seem to have stumpy clawed arms growing out if it´s cheeks. But then you notice the tendril that grows out of it´s forehead and the glowing sack on the end o fit and feel the pulsing green and blue light dims your senses as you´re compelled to watch it.
The (Sargutanwei) stands about 24 feet tall at the shouder and weighs about eight tonnes with famales and very old males reaching the 12 ton mark.
Originally a creature engineered unnaturally with magic and breeding animals of the Far realm mith mundane elphants, and iintended as beasts of burden and terryif assent in war, some specimens have encaped from their Skrum keeprs and procceeded to prolifrate , spreading even across planar bounadries.
[b]Combat/b]
Sargutanwei fight by making the utmost of their naural abllities . First they charge to trample the opnntent into the ground and let their horrible visage and the mesmerizing lightof their lure paealys tem and then the beast just pick them uo the the manipulating arms on its cheeks and eats them.
Frightful presence (Ex)
The Sargutanwei looks very mounstros and unsettling to normal creatures, and when it roar stomps of makes some sort of a threatening action all creatures within 60 ft, that can hear and see it must make a Will save aganst DC 20 or be frightened for 3d6 rounds. This is a mind affecting fear effect. A creature that succeds at the saving throw is immune to that particular Sargutanwei´s frightful presence for 24 hours.
Improved Grab
If a Sargutanwei hits with a manipulator am attack or a bite attack, it deals normal damage and attempts to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity. No initial touch attack is required.
Unless otherwise noted, improved grab works only against opponents at least one size category smaller than the creature. The Sargutanwei has the option to conduct the grapple normally, or simply use the part of its body it used in the improved grab to hold the opponent. If it chooses to do the latter, it takes a -20 penalty on grapple checks, but is not considered grappled itself; the creature does not lose its Dexterity bonus to AC, still threatens an area, and can use its remaining attacks against other opponents.
When a Sargutanwei gets a hold after an improved grab attack, it pulls the opponent into its space. This act does not provoke attacks of opportunity. It can even move (possibly carrying away the opponent), provided it can drag the opponent’s weight
Lure (Ex)
This soft membranous organ that hangs from a tentacle on the Sargutanwei´s forehead, constatly emits solf hues of color that reflect the creature´s mood, that cen be deciphered by making a DC 25 Knowledge (dungeoneering or the planes) check. Having this information gives +2 circunstance bonus to handle animal checks and +1 to Will saving trhrows to resist tit beguling effects
The Sargutanwei can take a move ation (which does not provoke attacks of opportunity) to have the organ project a palette of soft pastel colors like greens blues or reads that will cause onlookers within 60 ft to be fascinated for 1d6 rounds if they fail a Will save against DC 22. They will return to normal if peristently roused (a standard action) or if attakced by the Sargutanwei or another enemy. Creatures affected by the Sargutanwei´s Frightful presence get a -4 circumstance penatly to the saving throw that does not stack with and overrides the normal penalties from the Frightened condtion. This is a mind affecting abillity. A critical hit has a 30% chance of severing the organ and preventing the use of this abillity, until the creature has a spell capable of regrowing lost body parts cast on it
Manpulator arms (Ex)
The stumpy arms on the sides of the Sargutanwei´s neck provide enoug of a reach adwantage that the can be attack flying opponents as secondary atatck. Additinaly they are agile enough to grapple even a flying opponent ,at a -6 penalty to the check. But can be used to grapple foes on fornd at a full round action per attack. As full move action that provkes attacks of opportunity, The Sargutanwei can can transfer a pinned opponent to its´ mouth and can swallow rhe opponent
Terrible blow (Ex)
The Sargutanwei´s mosnstrous Strength allows it to literally fling lesser creatures with ease. If a Sargutanwei hits a creture at least one category smaller than itself with a kick attacks, the target must succed at a DC 23 Fortitude save or be blown off their feet and hurled backwards 1d6*10 feet, and falls prone unless they can make a DC 17 Reflex save. The creatures takes 1d6 points of nonlethal damage per every 10 ft travelled on impact. This damage is halved if the target lands on their feet. The distance given is for Large creatues and the multiplier increases by 5 feet for every size category the targat is smaller than Large. Every sucessful use of this abillity gives the traget a cumulative +2 insight bous on the saving throw against it for 1 minute.
Trample (Ex)
2d8+10 points of bludgeoning damage, Reflex DC 23 for half. The save DC is Strength- based .
Swallow whole(Ex)
When the Sargutanwei has an opponent that is up to one size catogory smaller than it held in it´s mouth it can make a grapple check , and i fit succeds it swallows the opponent, inflicting 2d6+3 pionts of damage.swallowed creature can cut its way out by using a light slashing or piercing weapon to deal 25 points of damage to it´s gizzard (AC 15). Once the creature exits, muscular action closes the hole; another swallowed opponent must cut its own way out. A Huge Sargutanwei´s gizzard can hold 2 Large, 4 Medium, 8 Small, 32 Tiny, 128 Diminutive, or 512 Fine or smaller opponents. If a Dm allows it, a swallowed chraracter can take a Search check agaisnist the DC of the creature´s HD+5 to find it´s tresure as it is actualy compsed of the belongings of those devored by the Sargutanwei.
Skills
Sargutanwei have a +4 racial bonus on Survival checks when tracking by scent.
Sargwutanei lore (Knowledge: dungeoneering)
DC 23 The sangwitanei Is a terrible huge beast, similar to an elephant, that can trample it´s opponents, into the ground and eat them alive. Because of that, valuables can sometimes be found in it´s stomach. This level of success reveals all aberration traits.
28It´s appearance strikes terror in the hearts of men, and it has a membranous organ on a tentacle on it´s forhead which projects light that attracts a attetion , disabling those who see it.WThose afraid o fit succum to it more easily. It´s kicks are so mighty that they fling lesser creaturs like ragdolls, but a warrior can learn by painful experience to dodge them better.
33 The Sargwutanei is an artificial creature, bred from elephants with magic and alchemy by the Skum kings in the Far Realm to be beasts of burden and of war. The implanted arms on the side of their neck are so dextrous they can catch flying creatures.
Plot hooks
-A stampede of elephants in in the way of an isolated village in the wilderness. The characters must divert the beasts and may find that some of them aren´t completly ordinary.
- The scholars have noticed a rift into a different plane has opened on the hill near a city. It seems alien and mysterious and terrible beasts heave emerged from tit: What are the creatures and who is behind this? The characters must find out.
-While travelling for many days on one of the many country roads, the party endter a band of Skum whose leader rides one of these beasts and claims to be a noble. What can he want and will the players help him? Is he to be trusted? And can his mount be kept in check?
Whew, that took some work.
Anyway PEACH please, because I´ m really not sure how this will fare. I orginally intendet it as as sort of melee´s counter-caster specialist, hence that is why it has anti-air grapple, and attack options against all saves (but I consider that a staple of good monster design anyways), but then I´m starting to fear that it gets touched in a bad way with a Shivering touch or something and gets screwed over anyways, and I should´ve given it some SR. But then you can just stick Spellwarped on it and call it a day, can you? Well, can you?
I think you can.
Well, I´m rambling now. So:
H604
I think this will do nicely. Because ^´s link seems to be borked.
H 594

R607:
This is more like a request for help at searching reather than homebrewing but like half a years ago I saw a a caster class on these board, that I would like to find.
It was called sometnig along the lines of Mage or Magus , had spellcasting inspired by oWod´s Mage the Ascension so it used thematc 'spehres' of magic llike entropy, and so on, but most importantly it had the abilty to cast from several schools like a wizard but had the abily to cast from all of them at differing power levels (max spell level available depending on which it chose as primary or secondary atd).This last feature is what interests me the most, so if any one could find the claas or replicate the tiered schools system I would be most grateful.Thanks.Last edited by ScIaDrd; 2011-05-03 at 08:47 AM.

Re: Request a Homebrew
R:607
I have two requests.
a.) The mechanics of an ability that allows someone to essentially see the memories of another through their blood. A "Blood Memory" ability basically.
b.) A small spell list for a class that casts from its hit points. The class itself so far has a lot of abilities, so a small spell list would be preferable please. If more is needed: It's for a Blood Mage homebrewed base class I'm making.I've started streaming again.

Re: Request a Homebrew
My request is as follows:
I have always found that the Soldier base class in the Star Wars d20 Roleplaying game (revised core rulebook) as weak compared to the others as though they just threw it in as a spare. Could anyone please create a newer Soldier class that has a more variety of features, which would make players want to gain it?
Thanks

Re: Request a Homebrew
Hi. I would like to request a homebrew. My villain, Dracotes, is trying to control and befriend a level 26 sea monster. Greek influences preferable. Name: Blue Death. It should be able to cause an apocolyptic scale of destruction. It also should be intelligent. This is the focal point of the campaign, so it should be EPIC. 4e rules A MUST. It should be very serpentine, and a bit draconic. It should be natural.

A spell with effects similar to Reverse Gravity, with a difference:
It affects a singe target, plus their carried equipment.
It will also need some sort of thing relating to how much weight the target will pull up, such as if they grab on to a table or someone grabs on to them.

Re: Request a Homebrew
R 618:
I am requesting is a really long random effects table. Incidentally, when I say "random", I don't mean "A random spell goes off 20 feet in front of you". I mean stuff up to as random as "All reach weapons within 10 miles of the nearest temple of the god of the nearest cleric turn into either duoms or mercurial longswords 1d3 sizes smaller than the original weapon".
Yes, I have very high expectations for randomness.
In case you were wondering, this is for a 3.5 adaptation of the Machine of Lum the Mad from the AD&D Book of Artifacts.
Do not hesitate to use effects that work by the rules for previous or later editions!

Thanks
DebbyP.E.A.C.H. Please Evaluate And Critique Honestly. Being nicer and kinder doesn't hurt either. Note I generally only critique 3.5 and Pathfinder material.
Please, please, please when using non-core material, cite to the books. There are too many books to wade through to find the one with the feat, special ability or spell you use.

Re: Request a Homebrew
R 621
I'd like to include a weapon called The Hellfire Redeemer in an upcoming campaign, but have no idea how to stat it out using Pathfinder's rules. Here's the fluff, from Paizo's book, Cheliax: Empire of Devils:
SpoilerThe legend goes that when Her Infernal Majestrix Abrogail I rose to power, a devoted knight of Sarenrae and his companions mounted an assault to destroy her and her fiendish allies. When they breached the throne room, they found themselves stunned by the unholy beauty of the Majestrix, who enspelled the knight and forced him to cut down his allies. As the blood mingled on the knight’s blade, the longsword turned pitch black, with swirls of red seething beneath the surface. Abrogail commended her new champion and declared him the first Hellknight.
This legend is totally unsupported by history; no scholar has found evidence that the story is true (and in fact the Hellknights predate Abrogail’s time as queen). None can even find the name of this supposed “first Hellknight” or his eventual fate. From time to time, though, this weapon surfaces, carves another memorable place in folklore, then disappears again. The Hellfire Redeemer typically reveals itself to good folk in their time of greatest need. It supposedly causes black rot to spread through its victims whenever it strikes, ignites enemies with a command, and sucks the souls of the fallen into its blade. To wield the sword is to truck with the legions of Hell, and most stories tell of it corrupting its bearer.
All I know is I'd like the weapon to act as something that could inspire the rumors about its properties, and something that could be wielded by neutral or even good characters without punishing the player with negative levels. I'm not sure if it'd be artifact caliber or not.Last edited by Archpaladin Zousha; 2011-05-18 at 12:44 PM.

Re: Request a Homebrew
C 620 Thanks for the stat block. I see a few minor errors but nothing I can't fix. For example, Grapple is -4 not-12 (+0 BAB, +0 Str modifier, -4 special size modifier for Small).
Also, I think Powerful Charge should do double damage not triple damage (2d4+2 not 3d4+2) as their tusks would be like a shortspear. It should be listed on the Special Attack line.
Vulnerability to Fire is not a feat, it is a Special Ability and should be listed on that line.
There is nothing called "Forest Camouflage" listed. Since the bonus to Hide is listed under a Skills section, you could delete that.
Otherwise, it looks good.
Thanks!

P.E.A.C.H. Please Evaluate And Critique Honestly. Being nicer and kinder doesn't hurt either. Note I generally only critique 3.5 and Pathfinder material.
Please, please, please when using non-core material, cite to the books. There are too many books to wade through to find the one with the feat, special ability or spell you use.

I would like allergies as flaws. Preferably at different levels of severity.If you need me somewhere, don't hesitate to PM me. I have bad mental health days sometimes, so if I vanish that's probably why. PMs will help break me out of that.

Re: Request a Homebrew
C. 621. Sounds like an artifact to me.
C. 622 Technically this isn't a Homebrew but you could this. From Post Modern Traits and Flaws by Big Finger Games open content converted to standard 3.5 rules:
Allergy
You are vulnerable to a substance that is not normally harmful.
Disadvantage Severity Rating: 1-5
Effect: Choose a substance to be allergic to, such as a type of food, a certain medicine, variety of insect, etc. If you are exposed to the source of your allergy you must make a Fortitude save (DC 15 + DSR) or suffer one point of temporary constitution damage per DSR. If you are allergic to a medicine, all Heal skill checks performed on you take a penalty equal to the DSR. This represents the inability of the healer to use all the means at his disposal to aid you. If you are incorrectly given the medicine to which you are allergic, you must make a save or suffer temporary Constitution damage as described above.

First the "gimped" non-artifact version:
Majestrix
This +2 unholy axiomatic greyflame (APG) longsword has the following powers:
- Dominate Person 1/day
- Fascinate (Sp): Any opponent within 90 feet viewing the blade must make a will save DC 27 or be fascinated by its beauty for as long as they view it. They are unable to do anything except watch the sword, and get a -4 to perception checks. Combat or other nearby dangers prevent this ability from working, and will disrupt it as well. This is an enchantment(compulsion) mind-affecting ability. As many as 4 opponents may be affected at one time.
- Trap the Soul 1/day: The blade may contain the souls of up to 20HD worth of creatures.
- Hellfire Ray (BotD1) 1/day
CL 11th, order's wrath, unholy blight, align weapon, dominate person, fascinate, trap the soul, hellfire ray, creator must be lawful evil, Price 227,075 gp, Cost 123,695 gp + 8270 xp
Greater versions that are a minor or major artifact could change dominate person into dominate monster, make the domination more permanent (rather than 11 days), get more uses per day, increased soul trapping capacity, etc. A way to explain away the temporary dominate would be to say that the knight was already on the fence, and after killing his comrades he felt he had no where else to turn. Or a helm of opposite alignment.Last edited by ericgrau; 2011-06-08 at 02:25 PM.
So you never have to interrupt a game to look up a rule again:

TOGC's 3.5e Spell/etc Cards: rpgnow / drivethru rpg
Utilities: Magic Item Shop Generator (Req. MS Excel), Balanced Low Magic Item System
Printable Cardstock Dungeon Tiles and other terrain stuff (100 MB)

Re: Request a Homebrew
R 623
Hi. I would like a (solitary) CR 4-5 monster that lives on grassy plains. Should be possible to defeat without magic. Preferably not flying (so ground-based or burrowing). Could use Dire Lion (rogue male), but I think it's a little to boring.
