For SLAs you could increase CL further.
we could give him IC: greatsword and it wouldnt matter. once you have Aptitude weapon on a tattoo, you dont need to keep a coherent organization for your choice of weapon feats.

That, is a great spot, thank you for giving me a way to improve his incredible power

Yeah, how about IC [Fullblade], just because we can, unless you can get a way to make the weapons Keen without a feat.

Relying on homebrew beyond the tattoo is not something im going to consider. the Tattoo itself causes a huge problem with Vow of Poverty

Wouldn't the true test of the new Tarrasque to see how it stacks up against all the abuses that come from epic play?

no, not really

here is the problem. 10th level spells, which all have to be researched, are typically done using Chaingate techniques. This lets them destroy anything in the game short of the Time Dragon, which has Intensified timestop at will

Fair enough. Now time for the really difficult question. What on earth does this Tarrasque actually look like?

coloration: Dark Iron, his entire body is somewhat Transparent. color is completely lost on him
Hide: Leaf-like granite Scales, a few vines come off his sides and underbelly
Eyes: glowing blue-white spheres in black caverns
Wings: Dragonic

"Before you stands a colossal dragon, Iron in color, somewhat transparent, and clearly of great and terrible might. what appear to be vines, or small tentacles hang sporadically from its sides and underbelly. Terror beyond possibility begins to fill you, as you begin to realize, it is the final hour."

ok, i went and found Vorpal Tribble's CR calculator. He said this monster is CR 176, or 140 if you follow the pattern of hitdie values, not the limit. I have to say, damn

any other feat sugestions, i remembered to add power attack
