This just makes me want to make a tier 1 discipline. Just to see if it can be done.
I dare you. I double dare you. I triple bitch dare you.

Anyhoo, I've changed it how it looks now. Made the indentation so that it'd look better. I think later I'll also make it so the names of the disciplines are not the links, instead putting them behind the names (like "Name [link]") for further improved readability.
Not everything is filled out yet, especially the disciplines lower down the list. The latter is simply because I'm out of time for today. Bedtime!

I'll just have to make it a greatest hits of broken spells, won't I.

Miraculous Wish
Level: Cleric/FVS 0, Wizard/Sorc 0, Paladin/Ranger 1 Component: None Casting Time: Instant Range: As Defined Target: As defined Duration: See Text Saving Throw: none Spell Resistance: No
Miraculous Wish may:
Replicate the effects of any Arcane or Divine spell, upto 9th level, with any metamagics you know of applied. If replicating a spell, Casterlevel is equal to 20d%.
Undo the effects of any spell.
Rewrite history as according to your will.
Create an item of upto +3200 Enhancement modifier
Grant you any Abillity, power, or spell you know.
Grant any number of Divine ranks, minimum 21
When you cast Miraculous wish, it does not consume a spell slot for the day.
I'd have to give it a deep look into it again then, I guess. IIRC, it was somewhat well-hidden. I'll give it a re-evaluation at a later date, alright?
No problem, take your time. I'm more interested in the logic behind the decision than changing it. What do you see that I've missed? That, and I'm a feedback junkie. The fact that my homebrew almost never gets any (which I can only assume means that it's all perfect) usually stymies that.

I'll look at yours if I can show you mine.
My wizard never got much comment other than a few short "this looks prettty good"'s . Which, while nice,doesn't help with development. What do you want peached?

Whatever looks interesting. My homebrew is somewhat plentiful, so take a look and comment on whatever catches your eye. I'm not picky.

I don't think it would be that hard. Each maneuver could represent one theme, but have multiple applications, and those applications do more than stabbing. You have, I dunno, Glorious God-King Mien, which can be used as either a Save-or-Suck AoE fear, a Diplomacy/Intimidate booster, a way of removing some status conditions (such as Shaken/Panicked/Frightened) from yourself and nearby allies, or a defensive measure that causes enemies to miss you out of stunned awe. And you change which way you use it every time.
Outpacing the Sun for your speed-boost, your teleport, maybe an AoE deafen and damage, etc.
Perhaps a stance, Transcendent Killing Arts Mastery, that allows you to invent new maneuvers for your discipline?
You gain an arcane caster level equal to your initiator level. You gain spells per day as a wizard of a class level equal to your arcane caster level. Choose a number of spells equal to the number of maneuvers you know, of a level not higher than the highest level maneuver you know. These are treated as being in your spellbook. You may change these spells every time you enter the Spellcaster's Stance.
There. Simple.
I think this would be the way to go for a T1 discipline. The trick is to make just T1 enough that it's T1, but not T0 enough that a DM will look at it and immediately dismiss it.

Hmmm, I already had an idea on a special feature to do on another homebrewer soon, but with a new idea I got now I think that before that I may do...
...something completely different.
But Morph....I love you T_T

Sorry I'm late on this, but I would like to help appeal one of the "guilty" charges:
Quote:
We find the defendant guilty of possession of several ranks in the Balance (Homebrew) skill.
He is certainly guilty of Craft (Homebrew), but Balance has no subskills! Therefore, his penalty should be reduced to 22 internets.

Excuse me folks, I need to go order my casket online before this laughter finally manages to kill me.

Well obviously, but why her for a tsundere rather than an actual tsundere? xD
For many, many reasons...
The question is, should I tell you those, or shall we just let the mystery continue?

My spirit is a good girl and doesn't afraid of anything! You make me think I should try cosplaying that though.

Noooooes! I knew I should've used Alternate Personality Orihime!
That reminds me though, time to go watch new anime of Summer 2012! I'm already liking this one guy from Arcana Famiglia though. He has and is the omnomnoms. Plus I find it hilarious how it appears to be set up to be a harem anime, semi-disguised. Sword Art Online makes me have a face like in Pyromancer's spoiler though. No, wait, Arcana Famiglia does that too... eith way, I think I've found more stuff to occupy myself with. :3
On that note, while I continue to work behind the screens on Something Completely Different, I've actually gotten kinda curious how many anime fans are amongst the homebrewers here, what their favourite anime are (and favourite characters or other parts of anime). So, spill!
Hm. Some Anime. I do tend to dislike rather a lot about many Anime people dislike me. Most of those I start, I watch one episode, then never think about it again. I like Ghost in the Shell.

Prefer manga to anime, but my favorite anime of late was Tiger and Bunny. What can I say, I like superheroes and Tiger was what I love about them. I keep meaning to watch some Fairy Tail since it's probably my favorite currently ongoing manga.

If anybody is ever interested in playing one of my homebrewed base classes let me know, I'd love to see some of them in play and would try to run a game for it.
Dragonball, of course. and gundam wing, and sailor moon, and outlaw star (can you tell i used to love toonami yet?).

The PCs were already a special forces type unit in a kingdom's military, so the campaign started in the general's office.
