Corpse PrC [3.5]

[Yasahiro]

Interesting, I've never seen that interpretation before, every time I've seen it it's always been you take a bloodline level in place of a class to gain the benefits and that's it, it increases the Skill Cap and things like Caster Level but grants no other benefit. It's the interpretation I'm using for the Corpse at least, though the Corpse only gains the benefits of having the bloodline with no bloodline levels so the point is moot regardless... Thanks for the clarification though, I think I like that ruling better.

Yeah, I like it more too. It allows bloodline person to get 20 levels of classes or such if they want, but it just delays them in terms of when they get it,

I put up a basic write up of the Corpse King as well as adding the beginning of the Xenoalchemy Source.

Corpse King seems rather... Weak. It gains as many improvements as its class level? And other than that it's just continued progression of Corpse? I will be fail, it seems like a let down.

That is largely due to how difficult it was to implement my original idea. That is pretty much a filler version for now until I can find a way to properly implement it.

I am also lamenting the willpower source has no source abilities. Sadly.

For the Negative Energy source, does Lifeleech apply to Deadbolt, or just Charnel Touch?

Also, what happens if you take the Willpower source as your second or third source?

I forgot my original ruling on that, but I'd say only Charnel Touch.

Willpower cannot be taken as a secondary or tertiary Source.

The Jungle: The corpse gains a +3 insight bonus to Listen, Spot, and Survival checks per point of essentia invested in this Avatar. As long as the corpse has at least one point of essentia invested in this Avatar, it gains Low-Light Vision, Darkvision 60ft, and the Scent ability.

Since the corpse already gets darkvision (undead trait) as a class feature, is the darkvision from this avatar supposed to stack?

Indeed, though I'm reworking the PrC (will post a new thread for it when I get around to it) so that won't be the case for the new version.
