Re: By Blood he is born, by Deed he is forged. [Base Class]
As NosferatuZodd requested, the Path of the Ghoul has been added.

Re: By Blood he is born, by Deed he is forged. [Base Class]
How about a lich or Dracolich?
I've never seen anything done with mixing a dracolich into another critter and (by virtue of magic or the lich loved feat) it makes as much sense as any other undead creature in the bloodline.
I really like the Solar path. Unless you put out one that I like even better, I'll be running this class by our other DM for an upcoming game.

Re: By Blood he is born, by Deed he is forged. [Base Class]
Hm... how about a godling path? Children of gods seems pretty close to the fluff.
If I could choose from standard DnD gods:
1. Pelor
2. Pharasma
3. Asmodeous
In that order. There could be others, too. Greek gods were famous for making out with mortals.
A Pit fiend/balor line?

Re: By Blood he is born, by Deed he is forged. [Base Class]
It's been a long while, but other than possessing a reptilian body in lieu of making a new one, what exactly sets the Dracolich as distinct from the basic Lich?
I really like the Solar path. Unless you put out one that I like even better, I'll be running this class by our other DM for an upcoming game.
Hm...
That actually sounds like an idea for a dual progression PrC for Cleric and this class.
A Pit fiend/balor line?
Edit:
What do you guys think about the Path of the Ghoul? I was afraid it wouldn't measure up to the other two without the flight, regeneration, damage reduction or SLA's.Last edited by Tanuki Tales; 2011-11-03 at 10:11 AM.

Re: By Blood he is born, by Deed he is forged. [Base Class]
It's a little less powerful, for sure. But, I think it'd have its place. It could get boosted a bit, though.

Re: By Blood he is born, by Deed he is forged. [Base Class]
Well, negative levels isn't the schtick of Ghouls and it does get Paralysis. I even put feats that specifically increase the potency of its paralysis as bonus feat selections to try and give the whole Path a boost.
I didn't look at that one Ghoul in the Libris Mortis though...
Controlling minions would give it an awesome niche: this class can be a Dread Necro. Or, a Solar. Now that's choice.
And what about the Solar?

Re: By Blood he is born, by Deed he is forged. [Base Class]
I'll look it up when I get a chance, but other than requiring a new dragon corpse with range of the phylactery and the only requirement is being a dragon, the differences aren't too minor.
Off the top of my head: they gain a paralyzing gaze attack, minor increase to SR and NA, minor boost to CHA, and the BW is based on CHA rather than CON, the ability to control undead every couple of days or so,and flight becomes supernatural.
They lose their crush attack, but retain all of their other dragon abilities.

Re: By Blood he is born, by Deed he is forged. [Base Class]
You sir, have just made my day. When I saw that the wyrd-blooded had been abandoned, I was concerned, to say the least. Seeing this has turned what has otherwise been quite a stressful week into something much better.
On the request side, I would love to see the return of the troll heritage. I had been using it in a homebrew setting me and some friends were making and it had a somewhat crucial role. Thanks in advance.Homebrew:

Re: By Blood he is born, by Deed he is forged. [Base Class]
Potent at melee range, to say the least.
Stench that ruins your day, natural attacks that paralyze, and eventually doing DEX and CON damage with every successful natural attack. He could give great wyrm a serious headache if he manages to get into melee with it.
Is this for a specific energy type or energy in general?

Re: By Blood he is born, by Deed he is forged. [Base Class]
I'll take a look.
Glad I could cheer you up. xD
Until I get a chance though, feel free to run the Troll Heritage Wyrd-blooded as is. Of all the Heritages, it was the one that was mentioned as being the most balanced of them.
That's what I felt when I made the Stench nastier and made the Ghoul Fever instant and virulent, but it still needs to compete against DR, SLAs and Regeneration.

Re: By Blood he is born, by Deed he is forged. [Base Class]
One more thing, and this might have been mentioned before, but I don't think that hybrid potential gives the max level of SLA you get from the chosen domain. As written you seem to get them all 1/day as soon as you get it.

Re: By Blood he is born, by Deed he is forged. [Base Class]
Since you asked for some requests.. Allow Me..
A Gloom would be great to see. I have a fondness for them, that few seem to share.
An Abomination would be quite cool to see as well, for specifics, I like the anaxim.
I wouldn't mind seeing one for mindflayer, that way psonics would be covered as well.
A pit fiend would be lovely as I love devils..
For dragons, any color would do, though I like force dragons and green ones the best.
Elemental paths are always good to see..
Lastly perhaps a Titan. Those things are beasts, after all.DnD Me

Re: By Blood he is born, by Deed he is forged. [Base Class]
What about having a class-based bloodline? Having an arcanist in the past would certainly change you just slightly...

Re: By Blood he is born, by Deed he is forged. [Base Class]
I'm not sure what you're exactly saying here, but thanks for catching that, as worded now, it gives 9th level spells at level 4. I'll go fix that.
I do believe you're the same gentleman who asked for the Gloom Ardent Tether in my Dreambound Canvas thread.
What kind of Elemental though?
Well, a lot of monsters have innate casting so they would end up getting it as part of their path. Though I'm sorry to say again Sam, that what you're pitching sounds more like an idea for a PrC (though this one just having its own spellcasting instead of being dual-progressed).
Edit: Oh, and sorry that I haven't done any work on here lately guys. A few days ago all my campaign notes got destroyed for my group that's been on hiatus the last few sessions and I'm scrambling to remake something for them to start playing.Last edited by Tanuki Tales; 2011-11-04 at 10:59 AM.

Re: By Blood he is born, by Deed he is forged. [Base Class]
Ooh, interesting. I'd be happy to see a Golem (Iron, if I must be specific) track, or a Gloom track if that's easier.

Re: By Blood he is born, by Deed he is forged. [Base Class]
All 4 elementals would be best. As each can see a bit of use depending on circumstance. And yes I am the same person. What can I say, I like classes like these. They both deal with the same idea to some degree. And yes golems could be nice to see.

Re: By Blood he is born, by Deed he is forged. [Base Class]
I'd like to see more of the heritages from the old class redone before movingon to new subjects.

Re: By Blood he is born, by Deed he is forged. [Base Class]
Some suggestions.
Shadow.
Pixie.
Vampire.
Succubus.
Ghaele.
Hydra.
Lillend.
Nymph.
I also support the already suggested troll and titan.
Not to look through the MMII.

Re: By Blood he is born, by Deed he is forged. [Base Class]
As requested by Radmelon, the Path of the Troll is up.
As requested by Silver Spectre, the Path of the Lich is up (don't have my copy of Draconomicon on hand).
As requested by SameBurke, the Path of the Pit Fiend is up.
Added to the list.
Well, I can think of at least 15 different elementals off the top of my head so...
If they get suggested, I'll remake them, but I'm not doing a straight conversion. That's not how I like to work.
I dunno. The Tarrasque is generally a unique creature, so that might be something that ends up as PrC material like the God descendants would.
You're going to make me have to institute a limit per person on suggestions, aren't you?Last edited by Tanuki Tales; 2011-11-06 at 01:25 PM.

Re: By Blood he is born, by Deed he is forged. [Base Class]
Wow, you work fast. I really like how the troll came out, it kept all of the stuff it needed from the old class and left all the chaff behind.

Re: By Blood he is born, by Deed he is forged. [Base Class]
I think at least one of the Fey heritages someone suggested is a must. Also, one for Giants. And.....Cthulhu, definitely Cthulhu ;).
EDIT: I think it's best to keep the heritages general, FWIW. So, maybe draconic, fiendish, fey, etc. If you get too specific, the thing's gonna be huge and a LOT of the heritages will be really, really similar.
Question though, is this a 3.0 class or a 3.P class? I noticed the skills are different from 3.5...
Also....how could one be DESCENDED from a Lich, Ghoul, Golem, etc? They're not alive. They can't reproduce (at least not without some damn powerful and....icky....magic).Last edited by JackRackham; 2011-11-06 at 02:24 PM.
