Question: How bad is Fiend of Corruption (FF) for my game?
« on: December 24, 2012, 02:23:09 AM »
I've got a player wanting to use the Fiend of Corruption PrC for a character. He specifically asked for a tweaked half-fiend (half-succubus) to get there.

Modified Half-Fiend:

I just want to see if anyone knows of any major problems or pitfalls with using it. The rest of the group are not really optimization-types.

Right now he's playing a Marshal 6. (I've already told him that Diplomancy won't work, though I've not yet had to prove how.)

Everything non-setting WotC-produced 3.5e and Eberron in books is allowed, as well as limited Dragon and Wizards.com material at my permission.

If the FoC is too problematic, I've told him I may just say no on the PrC, but that I'd check first.

Fiend's Favor can effectively buff an ally continuously.
Free Fiendish Graft for an ally each month.
Major Creation supplies poison each day, or fake materials to a merchant.
Grant Wish is only a problem if acquired before ECL17. It is certainly expected to be in play by that level.

The real problem that may arise is your PC deciding they should spam charm/suggestion/dominate/geas/etc and expect to have a legion of followers, and how you handle that as a DM.
