It works as per the MoP; it's a transitive plane.

And LD exists, but is a Restricted, Trained-Only skill which you can't take ranks in, even if your class has all skills as class skills.  The only way to get ranks is by attuning to the Dream node as a Planar Pioneer.  So very very few people will have it.  Is that good enough?

I haven't written the Dream node yet, or included LD in the Skills thread.

Sounds good. I just brought it up because the last campaign I ran with the plane of dreams turned into Nightmare from Elm street. Since everyone sleeps..... it was bad.

What happens to a creature or object that exists across the boundary of the bubble, being partially inside and partially outside?

What happens if an emanation is fixed upon a point in space, and then the Dream On bubble (being an emanation and thus mobile) moves so as to encompass it or so that the emanation's anchor point is no longer inside?

A creature has to make a Will save to leave, but what happens if it's the bubble that leaves them? That is, what if the bubble is the one moving and the creature is staying still?

I'm not sure of the answers to any of those questions.  I had enough trouble wording it as is.  Do you have suggestions on how to clarify those that allow this to be (a) not broken, and (b) worthy of a 9th-level chord?

I want! On a related note, I need to come up with ideas and stuff and help you with nodes.

Dream will not be accessible via a feat -- and you were going into PP anyway, so there you go :)

Bump.

Also, any reactions to the other chords?

I totally want to make an adaptation to allow for Epic Sax playing, so I can make this character.

Maybe even a Powerbard/Mechanosynth PrC... "I AM the instrument!"
