Help with a Bride-Zilla build, no really.
« on: August 16, 2012, 05:20:23 PM »
Ahh family drama.  I wanna blow off some steam.
 :banghead :fu :shakefist and more.

Let's go with Druid or Cleric in it for the -zilla part.
It's gotta have a Love Slave, doing you-know-who's bidding.
There should also be a complete loss of control
happening every now and then ... like emotional
chernobyl style.  Perhaps a Contingent Apocalypse
From The Sky.  But that's rather late.  It has to do
something like this earlier.  Barbarian Rage would
work all too well; it would have to be directed at
the PC party too.  Maybe Wildshape into Aberration too !!
Dragon wildshape would be too kind.
 :p

I'm thinking Wilder 4+ into UrPriest and Thrallherd.

Ideas ??

How attached to Cleric or Druid are you?  Rage Mage would fit the flavor well enough, and if you only took 2 levels you could still cast 9th level spells, such as Dominate Monster (for your love-slave). 
I'm not arguing, I'm explaining why I'm right.

I am not attached. 
I am only related by marriage, harrumph!
So yeah, that can work (needs a little -zilla of course).


Aha ...  :flirt
Half Fey +1 / Pounce Barb 1 to start.
Pounce and unsuspecting male = duh.
Half fey template provides Charm + Hypno =
look I know the spells expired and you're a !@#$ and a %^&*
and a beep censored beep too ... but I still love you baby  :love.

Here's a few suggestions that might/might not help ya:

barbarian  1(pounce)/druid (aspect of nature/avenger) 1x

Take the greensinger feat from Eberron as well as the spontaneous summoner feat (you need this to meet the one requirement for greensinger). I believe the feat adds most of the spells you're looking for to the druid spell list. This way the "bridezilla" can change into a grotesque beast (aspect of nature) that then flies into a murderous and uncontrolled frenzy (rage) when her love slave (via charm monster or whatever) doesn't do exactly what she wants.

Ironically, with this build you wouldn't have to take extra rage and you still gain fast movement.

I think I will show this thread to my wife. She'll get a chuckle out of this kind of brainstorming.

Edit: You'll also want the Torque of Lucid Raging (9000gp) from Dungeon Magazine #126, page 95. This will allow you to cast spells while raging. Also, you could pick up the Combat Charm feat (Dragon Compendium iirc) and fling charms while in combat without worrying about the bonus to such saves.

Cheers
Volf

Yeah, that'll do.


... "Torque" of Lucid Raging ...
 

 :tantrum ... It's a Tiara of Lucid Raging !!

Kalashtar for the "demon" possession, and easy qualifying for Thrallherd 1.

Custom Cloak of Morphic Wedding Dress
(think: I CAN'T MAKE UP MY MIND ABOUT WHICH DRESS, MOTHER AND YOU AREN'T HELPING !)
... needs an Insta-Clean property, like a variant Mend spell.
Protection From Normal Missiles , to ward off The Help throwing stuff at her.

 :D

Whay stop at torque when you could call it a diadem instead. ;p

Here's another stray idea that can be used in conjunction with thrallherd.

brb 1/wilder 4/cerebral rager  10/thrallherd 5

This adds a great deal to the Bridezilla concept. Firstly, cerebral rager can be found in Hyperconcious and could be considered an "emotional rager". The prestige class grants a special rage like ability which adds a bonus to your key ability! So, I am thinking this could add a rather nice bonus to the Bride's charisma. I believe (iirc) that at level 8 or 9 you can burn all uses of the rage ability to get a +8 to your key stat! You also get a decent ability (Killing Look) where you look at someone and well ... it hurts them. Think "Dagger Eyes" that actually inflicts damage instead of just alludes to it. Couple this with your full compliment of psionic powers and the thrallherd powers and I think you've got the perfect execution of a concept. Hell you can even use expansion to really increase her size. :)

Cheers
