Homebrew DesignRoll up your sleeves and get working: there's lots of homebrewin' to be done! Post your custom creation for critiques or review those of your peers.
Milo, A Homebrew by any other name, similar to the Team Rocket intro when they appear in Pokemon, though I can be wrong, but then the ideas I've started coming up with for a trainer/breeder class would be wasted.

From memory Jessie says "A rose by any other name is just as sweet." which is a refrence to Romeo and Juilet. Which is why I think it will either be about plants (The rose) or my mimicing (thus being something but having sweetness of the rose).

As long as it's posted before 12 am EST, April 1st.

It wasn't smoothly done or consistently updated, but I've managed to get my entry completed.
Troll Bräu didn't say no to my idea yet so it has been yet to see if I win or not. And anyway if there are two finished entries then it should be out of those two, rather than no winner.
If there is no winner, I have no idea what to write in my extended signature.

Alright, I'll be nice this one time since it brings us up to the minimum three entries, but Midwoka, you posted your entry half an hour after the deadline.
I'll have the voting thread and new thread up in a few minutes, let me just wake up here.
Damn not only was I completely wrong, but my Gitp User Name sucks....
I likely won't be in this one, but I'll try and think of something....

Well, to be honest, v3 makes me think you're either a series of clones or a series of robots. *shrugs*
I thought of the whole multiple versions thing, like clones or robots. But as I wouldn't allow it in my setting I do have any inclination to create it. I don't see the point in making something if I wont let my players use it...
But I'm still thinkings so their is hope.

Frick, I was wrong also, and I based my username off of an animal from Guild Wars (I played a Necromancer/Ranger, with my pet being an animal called a stalker).
Now I have to decide between making a stealth class, an animal, or, if I'm allowed to, a Necroranger class since that was what my Guild Wars character was.
Would I be allowed to do the Necroranger? If so, I already have the name.

Well my username is based off my first character in D&D Milo High-Hill, a Druid/Rogue who lived on the streets as a thief and slowly became the most wanted person in my campaign world, he definately wasn't a good guy. I had to add v3 because of some of the others were already taken.
I could make a Stealthy Nature Guy. Probably a stealthy nature Warrior as Milo is based off Miles which was a medieval term for a warrior.
Thanks I've figured out what I'm going to make.

Erm...is there a problem here I'm missing or something? I don't see why you can't make a Necromancy focused Rangeresque class.
And Damn.
I really, really, really want to play an Olympian now.

Thanks! =D
I was always disappointed in D&D's classes when it came to feeling like a bulging pile of muscle. You could get a Barbarian's Rage or a Bull's Strength spell, but that +4 never never really felt like much - especially since you needed to be raging or use straight-out magic to achieve them. Monks were better, with great unarmed damage and an easier time getting the grappling feats, but they still felt too 'exotic' and had a focus on being nimble.
I wanted to make a class that anyone would point to immediately if they were asked which class Thor would be, or Heracles, or Aquaman, or that guy from the old Mighty Max cartoon... And the superhero theme from the contest was the perfect way to frame it. =)
I need help coming up with a way to choose how much Death Points the Necro-Ranger gains each level, and I don't want to base it randomly off of a d20. I'm tempted to just base it off the power points a Psionic class (Wilder, Psion, Psionic Warrior) gains.
Anyone have a suggestion for me for the Death Points per level thing? That was one of the problems I had with the system I was making for the ToS, points gained each level.

Since it looks like your Necro-Ranger is martial, skilled, *and* uses the Death Points, I'd suggest looking at similar classes for the amount of points they get: the Factotum's Inspiration Points or the Monk's ki, or the Psychic Warrior's power points if you expect your powers to be augmentable by spending more than 1 point at a time.
Thanks, and I'm unsure about having the powers be augment-able, if so, than I have to come up with what to give the powers.
For Armor of the Unliving, I'm trying to decide whether the armor will be able to be upgraded every X amount of levels, or to have it so that the NR can take some natural attacks and movement types to put on the armor (with a limit of course, and not being able to gain a Fly movement speed until at a decent level).

Warpwolf16, I haven't had a chance to look over much of your race, but what I did notice was the racial modifiers for the ability scores. Most Pathfinder races have a total of +2, with +2 in one Mental Attribute (CHA, WIS, INT), +2 in one Physical Attribute (CON, STR, DEX), and -2 to one attribute score.

Not fully awake yet and only gave a glance, but I'm assuming it's to balance out the fact the race is Psionic, gets two Psi-Like abilities and has Powerful Build.

Correct, theyre a race of a unstable nature that wield minor psionic powers. The
+-+- is due to balancing issues, I figured by giving it tha it might balance out the psionic powers and powerful build.
Sadly because of assessments I doubt I will finish this on time. So I'm going to remove my entry.
