    Default Looking for some homebrew Fey/Sidhe related PrCs.

    Hi All,

    I am currently crafting up a BBEG for a campaign I am working on and require a prestige class which is in some way related to the unseelie fey/sidhe. I have reviewed every book I have (which is most of the core d20 books) and cannot find the "right" fit. What I am looking for is a 5 lvl prestige class that advances arcane (or divine) spellcasting and is associated with the unseelie fey/sidhe. If there are any such homebrew prestige classes here (or anywhere) please let me know. Even if the homebrew is a simple idea please feel free to post it here.

    Thanks for any and all comments!

    Cheers
    Volf

    How he have to be a spellcaster? 'cause if you're looking for a villainous fey-related PrC, you're (and I hate to toot my own horn here, but I think it may be true) unlikely to find ANY class better suited to the role Seiškona of the Iron Bands. It require being a Binder though...

    Ingredients

    2oz Djinn
    5oz Water
    1 Lime Wedge


    Instructions

    Pour Djinn and tonic water into a glass filled with ice cubes. Stir well. Garnish with lime wedge. Serve.

    Look at the wild soul (Complete Mage p.85).
    Subclasses for 5E: magus of blades, shadowcraft assassin, spellthief, void disciple
    Guides for 5E: Practical fiend-binding

    D&D Remix for 3.x: balanced base classes and feats, all in the authentic flavor of the originals. Most popular: monk and fighter.

    Glad to see you back Djinn!

    I have to 2nd this. I used a Seidkona as a big bad in my game to amazing effect . One of the best classes to show up on these forums.

    You did? How'd it play out, in terms of both flavor and mechanics? Mind dropping me a PM? 'cause I'm dreadfully curious.

    Ingredients

    2oz Djinn
    5oz Water
    1 Lime Wedge


    Instructions

    Pour Djinn and tonic water into a glass filled with ice cubes. Stir well. Garnish with lime wedge. Serve.

    Ugh, now I have to make not one BBEG but two. I love binders and this prestige class is an excellent example of flavour melded perfectly with class mechanics.

    Great idea, however, I already used some summoner type baddies in another campaign so I wanted this BBEG to be as different as possible.

    Thanks for the input so far!

    Now I am gonna stat up a mini BBEG Seiškona of the Iron Bands.

    Given these two, I'd recommend (if possible) switching the BBEGs around, making the caster the lesser of the two. The Seidkona will automatically be COMPLETELY different from a summoner type (or from any caster), and the lore behind them also gives their presence a MUCH bigger build-up and world effect.

    Whatever you decide, I'm glad you like the class though.

    Ingredients

    2oz Djinn
    5oz Water
    1 Lime Wedge


    Instructions

    Pour Djinn and tonic water into a glass filled with ice cubes. Stir well. Garnish with lime wedge. Serve.

    Djinn, out of curiosity, are the Seidkona vestiges still forthcoming?

    I wrote a demonic vestige for the Seidkona, I did think of a couple other ones but I thought that the project had lost momentum. So if it hasn't Djinn, I will help you write more.

    That brings something to my mind.. How many fae lords were ever finished for that project? If I recall, only two were ever fully finished, one by Djinn and one by Errant

    Far as I know that's the only two that were written.

    Int he Fae-o-matic thread in my sig, there's the Faerie Knight class, which is complete, though not a spellcaster, and relying on the Hedge, so maybe not for you.

    There's also the prestige and base classes in Le Cirque Funeste, which is themed around a faerie circus...
    Mine is not so much a Peter Pan Complex as a Peter Pan Doom Fortress and Underground LairTM!
    Fae-o-matic Want a fae from folklore stated? Give me the lore and I'll do it for you!
    Le Cirque Funeste Evil Fairy Circus! Ray Bradbury, refined down to snortable powder!

    Thanks for the link! Even though it's melee oriented I might be able to use it for a cadre if Sidhe guardians or some such thing.
