Smoking

A god of fire elementals, a god of sandstorms, and the human god of racism who thinks that dwarves and elves should all be killed.

I'm not sure I'm a good enough bullshitter to find a way to make a Paladin or Paladin of Freedom who could draw the holy power to make the world a better place from those gods. Especially as a non-human character

So sad for you then.

Admittedly, making racism "good" is a stretch that I don't think I want to prop.

Simply, the first two could be seen as scourging the land clean. This is an age old concept. Kossuth specifically believes in purification through fire.

Awaken Sand is a spell in Sandstorm, it's treated as a Huge Animated Object with 3d6s for mental scores.

Thanks I was AFK. There is a thread on another site here:

How about travel devotion?

Centaur is large, so a lance should threaten 20' and your natural weapons 10'.

This is inaccurate.  A centaur is Large(Long), meaning it only gets 5' reach.  See this chart for reference.

I stand corrected

I thought they did away with those rules in 3.5?  And just made everything take up perfect squares so they could plug the Miniatures?

Yes, everything takes up perfect squares, but the length of your reach is not necessarily equal to the width of your square.

1) Make the PrC easy to enter (like you can get in at 3rd level, after 2 levels of monk).
2) Make its levels stack with monk for unarmed progression, AC, movement, and stunning fist uses.
3) Give it better (read: actually useful) class abilities than monk.
4) Give it bonus feats.
5) Create a feat similar to Font of Inspiration, except you gain stunning fist uses. (Note that feats already exist that give addiitonal stunning fist uses, on a limited basis)
6) Design the PrC such that if you choose not to load up on this feat, it is still effective.
7) Congratulations, you have just made core monk levels 3-20 obsolete!

I like this too - nice BBEG. Not impossible by any means, but copuld be a good challenge to many groups.

Well, I like the idea, but blowing off the first round at mid- to high-level sounds like a bad idea.

Not that anyone cares but...

99.9% of the time (i.e. before now, 100% of the time) I agree with Soro, but I read it the other way.

I take it he has an limitation of not being able to become immune to crits? There are lots of spells that can do that. I would think a crit with electricity would be more fitting to destroy him, as he's already physically smashed.

Here's what I was thinking for the Sand form template based on Awaken Sand.


Sandborn

Sometimes a creature that dies in the waste has its soul absorbed by the sands that bury its body instead of moving on to its normal afterlife. The creature returns to a semblance of life and loses a level as if reincarnate has been cast on the body. It returns in a body of animated sand instead of using the normal chart. Certain orders of Sand Shaper's have learned to mimic this phenomenon with a ritual that consumes 3000 gp worth of Shape Sand and 1000 xp from the converted creature.
 
Sandborn is an aquired template that can be added to any living creature (referred to hearafter as the base creature).
Size and Type: The base creature's type changes to Construct [Earth] and it gains the augmented subtype. Do not recalculate base attack bonus, saves, or skill points. Size is unchanged.
Hit Dice: Increase to d10
Special Abilities: A Sandborn retains all the special qualities of the base creature and gains those described below.
Unnatural Resiliance (Ex): Sandborn automatically heal hit point damage and ability damage at the same rate as living creatures. Neither the Heal or the Craft skills have any effect on them; however repair spells heal them and both positive and negative energy affect them normally.
Amorphous form (Ex): Your body is composed of particles of sand allowing you to pour through openings small enough for grains of sand to fit through, openings of two size categories or more smaller than you are take a full round to pour through. Your equipment is not altered by this ability and would need to fit through the opening on its own or be left behind.
Elemental Soul (Ex): You can be rebuked like an elemental with the earth type.
Abilities: Same as the base creature, except that as a construct they have no Constitution score.
Advancement: By character class.
Level Adjustment: Same as the base creature. (Becoming a Sandborn involves losing a level so the advantages of the construct type cancel out what would otherwise be a larger adjustment.)


What do people think? Too much?

I like it. I would play it for the RP potential.
