Vanity I guess...
Well why not. (Though I do think medicine man has defiantly had enough, and has seen play many times...)
Anywho you may have a point with bloodspilt, so I'll pull it out for now.

I'll help my allies where I can, but I see infinite methodologies to infinite concepts, so you'll need a concept and methodology before we begin.

Anywho think I have am idea of how much to hold back from the character you put in the nations game. Fair to assume that level of op+buffs+a little extra op to get a few more abilities, scaled up with the level gap? if you're thinking higher then that tell me so can remember to have extra tricks and traps ready.

Anywho since I'm ditching bloodspilt I'm gonna request http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=74692 paramind

...there is no way this is gonna end well. Regardless, now I want to try.

I'm going to see if I can make the Selesnya Conclave. This will require Thrallherd, as well as my Swarmlord class.


Never mind. Suddenly having flashbacks to how long I took to make a half-competent level 30 gestalt.

Anyone interested in an alliance with an immortal god-monarch who has all but mastered the art of omnipresence?
Speaking of, how much time are we allowed to spend on crafting and such before the campaign starts? I'd really like for my three billion clones to each spend a week making professions checks

Dr. O when you get a chance can you look over what I sent you in PM so I know if it is a legal build or not. Please and thank you. I would also like to talk over the idea I had for my character with you saying you are the Co DM if that would be alright, saying I only have him at level 7 so far and I'm starting to run into a few problems. Again thank you and will be waiting on your reply.

Naturally it's by existing in all fourth dimensional space simultaneously. (yeah that's the one demented one epic destiny I usually preemptively deny in my games. )

So honestly I'm not being spammed with alliances yet. odd.

I think so too. Lets be honest, they don't really know me as well in this crowd. But hay, I got a few. I would probably have a chance against a big alliance, but I'd feel bad if I oped enough for that... Anywho I have some. Anywho you allied with sin?

As could you. I did offer that you could polish off that maze now and that we could start... In any case I have someone helping me with that who has a little ore time then me to work on it so my time won't impact you much.

Ah, nice. Well I'm probably making my funnest in another game at the moment, but this one will be fun. I've never seen op as something you sacrifice fluff o fun for, but as something that you can make anything be in it's own right, used as extra flavor to the fluff.

Edit: And you have yet to answer my "are you allied with sin" question.

Not technically, but we do have a little deal and he would be welcome to be an ally if he wants.

Going to have to drop this, as I figured I would in favor of RL/newly purchased Skyrim/knowing I'm not Optimization-master enough/other games I'm in. Sorry for troubling you, but at least people have some requests to possibly use if they feel like going through mine. But seeing as how people are requesting Epic Destinies I've already requested (see first request post, under Epic things link) I'm not going to hold my breath.
All the same, I can only wish you all have a good time and to try and not make too big of a mess of the fragile thing we know of as Reality.

May you all roll many a Natural 20,
Igneel

K, well I guess I'll not take that guy on in my alliances then. They didn't want to join up if they may end up against you, and I'd rather not have a world war Italian as an ally. Sweden or Spain I could easily tolerate, but Italy can wind up hampering you even when they're not really aiding you.

Well lets say my characters deffinition of ally is lose and my characters morals conflict with no race or alignment.

I have not discussed that, but the nature of my situation may leave infighting within my own nation, but if my allies want to hold higher standards then me they can.

Yup, that should demonstrate the silliness of epic spells while actually being serous and requesting something both horribly unbalanced but limited.

True that... (hence why I don't really favor the ritual/epic spell system first introduced in DMG and expanded on in ELH)

And this is why epic spellcasting is stupid, even in comparison with the Immortal's Handbook.

Same goes for rituals (non-epic counterpart, same crazy brokenness), anywho I just made one to prove the point, no need to bother until we hear if shady is revoking them.
