Interest Check-Blood Crusade against Thoon (3.X, high level, Evil)

[Nanshork]

Hey now, I whittled it down to two options.

Actually, with that kind of description I'm narrowing it down to one.

Fiendyish Requirement x/ Energy Warrior y  - Uses the power of fiendish/thoon (haven't fully settled on the flavor yet) technology to defeat the mind flayers.  Ranged damage with some utility.

[Raineh Daze]

I've narrowed it down to one: unleash the full power of giant magical lasers.

[Frogman55]

Madness. It's all about the spreading insanity.

Which makes sense - if your goal is to spark a revolution against all-powerful mind-reading overlords, don't you need to be crazy? And to have a few crazy people?

So the Allip (I am still working on a good name) isn't about killing Illithid and Elder Brains as much as he's about convincing slaves to get violent. And perhaps encouraging some necromancy on the side. And occasionally putting an Elderbrain into a coma through Wisdom drain.

I'm excited - not only do I have a chance to play a cuckoolander, I get to play an evil cuckoolander. Who babbles!

[Raineh Daze]

My main concern with the character is filling up all my feat slots. Also spellbook redundancy.

Well, and working out how to not blow up the entire party.

[oslecamo]

Well, there seems to be a significant amount of interest, and I'm in a good mood, so let's make this happen.

Will try to answer the relevant questions piled over the last pages, if I missed anything important let me know.

Almost all of Oslecamo's games have the same basic parameters:
32 point buy
2 flaws, 1 trait (SRD only)
Standard WBL
HP are max at first level, then either average or rolled (not a combo of both)
Just about all 3.X published material is ok, Homebrew is ok but must be reviewed by the DM

Correct.

So does targeting happen before the spell, or is it a coherent part of the spell? There isn't any action involved when it happens (so I guess it's a free action), so there aren't really existing rules to slot it in. Also, I pity the enemy that tries to use mindsight on me. 

Guess I'm glad I didn't take mindsight, then! I figured someone on the team would take it; with so many fiends, I can't be the only one with telepathy. I'm not sure whether it would affect me or not. Technically, I'm not "immune" to it outright. I'm treated as though I were an object. Since an object has no wisdom score, I imagine it can't take Wisdom drain. Actually, I think the thing that keeps me safe is that the ability says, "At 10 HD, even creatures normally immune to Wisdom drain still suffer from the Allip's Madness ability, but at a reduced effect.  The Wisdom drain from either use of the Madness ability is halved for such creatures."
Thus, where an Undead or Construct is normally immune, they are still creatures and thus are subject to the ability. A brick wall is not a creature, and is not subject to the ability. Though I am a creature, I am treated as an object and not a creature, and therefore I believe I would not be subject to the effect.

I'm feat-starved enough as it is, though.

Just to clarify, I consider that immunity to mind-affecting is enough to stop mindsight.

on the Eternal Royal. As I assume the forbidden school doesn't count into the 2 schools of maneuvers allowed by the class (is that correct?), what other school would you recommend as secondary?

You still need to pick the Forbidden School feat and have the parent school, but you still get another base non-related school yes.

I don't think Os is going to let you get a feat-restricted maneuver on an item.

Well nothing in Forbidden School disallows creating items or from using Martial Study to select it.

Initiating the countdown. Ditto for making sure Ancient Temple doesn't allow it.

Clarified that Forbidden schools can only be used if you took the feat. Ancient Temple is trickier to abuse because it only works with Youkai-Forged blades, and you can only get those from the feat.

QUESTION FOR OSLECAMO

What's your stance on alternate bonus types for ability score boosting wondrous items at x2 the price as per DMG's creating magic items rules?

I'll rule ok but said item must take a body slot, and cannot be combined with other items.

Or just custom magic items in general? 

Case by case basis.

Edit: My pythoondragon is turning into the hulk and I desire to destroy every piece of constructed scenery, and especially thoon constructs <3, so much.
Does Os have much of a problem with Involuntary Rage & Pain Mastery bonuses stacking forever until I die?

The bonus reset at the start of combat (since by definition for a new combat to start the previous needs to have ended).

Soro_Lost: If you want a custom item of legacy, you'll have to run it through me. Most wotc "custom" design systems are filled with plenty of holes.

[Frogman55]

Ooh, since your answering questions now: When doing my first trawl through your stuff, I believe I saw something that said you can get incorporeal equipment for 10% over list price, but now I can't find it.

Is that correct?

[oslecamo]

Yes, it's actually based on an equal rule from a splatbook, it however gets mentioned only in some of the ethereal monster classes.

Racial Features

(click to show/hide)

  Death Throes (Ex): When killed, a Zoltan's body releases a burst of energy in an explosion that deals 1d6 points of damage, plus 1d6 for every 2 character levels beyond 1st, to everything within 30 feet (Reflex half DC 10 + 1/2 level + Con modifier). This damage is untyped and results from pure energy, so it is not affected by damage reduction or resistances. Zoltan can intuitively control this energy release with their dying will, and can cause it to only damage their enemies.
  Energy Pool: A Zoltan has an energy pool with 1 point of energy.
  Power Device (Ex): A Zoltan can provide power to an electrical or mechanical device that does not have a power source but is otherwise functional. The device functions exactly as it normally would if it had conventional power. This ability can affect any household or handheld device, scratch-built robot, or general-purpose vehicle. Larger or more intricate devices cannot be powered with this ability. A Zoltan can power only a single device at a time, and must remain within 30 feet of the device to continue powering it. Using this ability is a standard action that requires touching the device to be powered.
  Zoltan Energy Shield (Su): A Zoltan can channel his or her natural energy into a protective energy shield. This racial trait is an energy receptacle. Energy can be allocated to it as a System. The Zoltan gains an energy shield with absorption equal to the amount of energy allocated times the Zoltan's character level. Unlike most energy shields, the Zoltan Energy Shield does not recover normally. Instead, it recovers to its full hit points whenever the Zoltan refreshes his or her energy.
  Darkvision 60'
  +2 bonus on Intimidate checks.
  SR equal to 11+HD, may lower or rise SR at any time even not my turn
  DR/magic equal to ½ HD
  Resistance to Cold and Fire equal to 1/2 HD, stacking with any already existing resistance of the same kind.
  Smite Good: Once per hour I can declare one normal melee attack to be a Smite Good. If that attack hits a good creature it deals extra damage equal to the my HD.

Class Features

(click to show/hide)

  Proficient with all simple and martial weapons and with light armor.
 
  Activating/Socket Attachments

  Energy Beam: Create Masterwork weapon, see description for more information.  Wis to attack and damage (replaces other stats).  Gains an enhancement bonus equal to the amount of energy allocated to the module attached to the Energy Emitter socket (if any). If there are multiple modules attached, use only the one with the most energy allocated.

  Energy Emitter Socket: +2 energy capacity

  Protected Emitter: Wisdom modifier to activator level to resist suppression of modules attached to the Energy Emitter socket.

  Evasion: Only functions in light or no armor.

  Energy Filter: Can have 4 modules attached to the Energy Emitter socket at the same time, but can only choose to have one such module benefiting from the attachment at one time.  Can switch between them as a move action. Regardless of how many modules are attached to the Energy Emitter in this way, these attachments only count as a single attachment when determining effects based on the number of socket attachments, including the limit of concurrent attachments

  Energy Absorption: While having a module attached to the Energy Emitter socket that modifies the type of damage the Energy Beam does, gain resistance equal to 5 times the energy allocated to the module (even if the damage type is not normally subject to resistance).  Gain this separately for each module attached to the Energy Emitter socket, this resistance overlaps.

  Combined Energy Emission: 5/day gain the benefits of all of the modules attached to the Energy Emitter with the Energy Filter ability at once.  Activate with a swift action, lasts 1 round.

  Shielded Emitter: DC 15 Will save each round to maintain the function of the Energy Beam ability and any active modules attached to the Energy Emitter inside an anti-magic field.  The save DC increases by +2 each round, and I may not make subsequent Will saves if I fail until my modules have been reactivated by leaving the field. Other magic items and supernatural abilities (such as the Combined Energy Emission ability) are still suppressed as normal.

Activating

(click to show/hide)

Activator Level: 19
Active Modules: 9
Energy Pool: 22 (18 base + 1 race + 3 feats) 
     0 energy allocated
Socket Attachments: 5 (All are unlocked including Energy Emitter Socket)

Maximum Energy Capacity: 4 (6 for Energy Emitter Socket)

DC = 10 + Con Mod + Allocated Energy

Notes:
Unlike Incarnum, activating does not interfere with magic item slots.
Each module can only be attached to one socket, and each socket can only have one module attached to it.
Refreshing energy/changing modules/changing sockets takes 1 hour of rest.
Reallocating energy is a swift action.

Energy Emitter socket Notes:
Can suppress the effects of attaching any of the modules to the Energy Emitter socket as a move action.
Can have 4 modules attached to the Energy Emitter socket at one time, these count as a single attachment.  Gain the benefits from only one module at a time, can switch as a move action.
For modules attached to the Energy Emitter socket that change damage type, gain resistance to that damage equal to 5 times energy attached to the module.  Gain separately for each module attached, this overlaps.

System Feat Notes
Reallocating energy among systems is a slow process. Normally, this can only be done as part of refreshing energy.

Enhanced Targeting System ^{(Energy: 0)}  +1 insight bonus to all ranged attack and damage rolls per point of allocated energy. If at least 3 energy is allocated to this feat, the critical damage multiplier of all of ranged attacks increases by 1.

QUESTION FOR OSLECAMO

What's your stance on alternate bonus types for ability score boosting wondrous items at x2 the price as per DMG's creating magic items rules?

I'll rule ok but said item must take a body slot, and cannot be combined with other items.

Good, good. Because I'm a dumb person who it totally okay with spending ALL my WBL on nothing but Stat boosts to a single stat (sometimes) /notevenkidding

Or just custom magic items in general? 

Case by case basis.

Edit: My pythoondragon is turning into the hulk and I desire to destroy every piece of constructed scenery, and especially thoon constructs <3, so much.
Does Os have much of a problem with Involuntary Rage & Pain Mastery bonuses stacking forever until I die?

The bonus reset at the start of combat (since by definition for a new combat to start the previous needs to have ended).

That is perfect and so much better than having the bonuses poof at the end of combat because I'd die after first fight like that 
It also makes me not have to worry as much about needing a custom item or several to avoid dying when all my temp Con boosts disappear

Jovoc Body: The Jovoc loses all other racial bonus and gains outsider traits (basicaly darkvision 60 feets). It's a small sized outsider with base speed 30 feet, a bite natural attack dealing 1d3+1/2 Str mod damage and two claw attacks dealing 1d4+ Str mod each.

The Jovoc also gains a bonus to Nat armor equal to its Con modifier.

Eye for an Eye: Whenever the Jovoc takes damage from any source or suffers an ill effect from an opponent within 5 feet, plus 5 feet per HD, as an immediate action the Jovoc may inflict the same amount of damage or ill effect on the foe that inflicted it, even if the ill effect would render the Jovoc unable to act. A successful Fort save with DC 10+1/2 HD+Con mod halves this damage or negates the ill effect.  This ignores any resistance, immunity, DR, SR or similar on the Jovoc's enemy.

Demon: At 2nd level the Jovoc gains resistance to fire and and a bonus on saves against poison equal to his HD, and resistance to acid and cold equal to half his HD. Plus telepathy 40 feet plus 10 feet for each extra HD from here. Also gains the evil and chaotic subtypes and his weapons/natural attacks count as evil and chaotic for bypassing DR.

Invaluable Grunt: At 2nd level the Jovoc gains Fast Healing equal to half its HD.

Abyss Skin: At 3rd level the Jovoc gains DR/cold iron equal to half its HD and SR equal to 11+HD. It may raise or drop its SR at any time as a free action, even if it isn't its turn.

Claws of Blood: At 3rd level the Jovoc can, as a fullround action, move up to double its base speed and attack with both claws at any moment. This movement provokes attacks of opportunity as normal, but if anyone actually hits the Jovoc with an AoO while it uses Claws of Strife, it may use its Eye for an Eye ability as a free action.

Tanar'ri Frontline: At 4th level as a swift action the Jovoc may double its DR and Fast Healing for 1 round.

Strife Spawn: At 4th level the Jovoc can re-roll miss chances against creatures that didn't attack it within 1 round, and adds both Str and Dex mod to its Claw attack rolls and damage rolls against such opponents as well (minimum +1 from each stat).

Aura of Retribution: At 5th level as an immediate action the Jovoc may activate this ability in a 30-foot spread centered on itself. Whenever the Jovoc takes damage from any source or an ill effect, every enemy within the area immediately takes an equal amount of damage or suffers the same ill effect. A successful Fortitude save with DC 10+1/2 HD+Con mod halves this damage and negates the effect. This ignores any resistance, immunity, DR, SR or similar on the Jovoc's enemies. Eye for an Eye can't be used while Aura of Retribution is active.

Aura of Retribution can be maintained for a number of rounds per hour equal to the Jovoc's HD. He may divide the duration between different uses by ending it earlier as another immediate action.

Summon Jovoc: at 5th level 1/day the Jovoc can summon another Jovoc 2 levels lower (up to Jovoc 5) with the elite array that serves for 1 minute per HD, but cannot use any of its own summoning abilities. If the Jovoc is 9th level or higher, it can choose to summon two Jovocs 5, and double that for each 2 HD from there.

Potential: You gain an amount of Potential points equal to your HD. Every time you make a 1d20 roll or weapon damage roll, you may spend an amount of Potential points up to your Paragon level to boost the result of that roll in a 1 per 1 basis. You need to choose to use this ability before knowing the result of the roll, but it takes no action to activate. Potential Points are refreshed at every hour.

The One: At 2nd level the Paragon gains resistance to two elements of his choice (stacking with any other resistances he already had) and DR/magic equal to half his HD. If the Paragon already had a DR with magic as a bypassing component, then increase it by 5.

Exceptional: Either trough harsh training, natural raw talent or some other factor, Paragons are clearly faster, stronger, simply better than others of their kind. At 2nd and 4th level they gain a +2 bonus to two stats of their choice (you can pick the same pair of stats twice).

A Step Ahead: At 3rd level all of the Paragon's movement speeds increase by 50%!

Know the Trick: A Paragon is so good that many people would think he's using magic. At 4th level the Paragon picks up one of the following spells and can use it as a SLA 1/day per 3 HD. Haste, Greater Dispel Magic or See Invisibility, except they count as Ex abilities, thus being undispellable and usable inside an AMF.
At 9th and 14th level the Paragon picks one of the remaining options.

No Time to Rest: At 5th level the Paragon gains Fast Healing equal to half its HD, which stacks with any other Fast Healing it might have.

Flawless:  At 7th level the Paragon gains SR equal to 11+HD. If he already had SR, increase it by 5. He can raise or drop his SR at any time as a free action even if it isn't his turn.

Champion: At 7th and 9th level you gain +2 to three different stats of your choice. You may pick the same trio of stats at each time.

Here and Now: At 8th level all of the Paragon's Movement speeds are doubled (this doesn't stack with A Step Ahead).

Simply the Best: At 10th level the Paragon's Fast Healing from No Time to Rest doubles.

Three Times As Fast: At 12th level all of the Paragon's Movement speeds are tripled (this doesn't stack with Here and Now).

Lord: At 12th and 14th level the Paragon gains +2 to four different stats of his choice. He may choose the same quartet of stats at each time.

That Was Left Handed: At 12th once per round as a free action even if it isn't your turn, you may perform either a basic physical attack, basic move action, or one of your Know The Trick SLAs.

Best of the Best: At 15th level, you gain an extra +2 to all your ability scores, and all your HD, past, current and future, are maximized. You may take an automatic 11 on any d20 rolls you make, and once per day you may take 20 on any one d20 roll.

Jovocs are front-line combatants in the armies of the Abyss. Most do not live long, and those who are smart and ambitious enough scheme to advance in rank and earn more powerful forms. One, however, proved to be especially resilient and cunning, and could certainly have worked his way toward a far more powerful form of Demon very quickly. Yet, with each new offer of promotion, this one jovoc passed. He relished in the vicious battle of the Blood War, and he learned to make grand use of his particular fiendish powers. He grew to become a very successful assassin, piquing the interest of several of his higher-ups.

This jovoc, Damaros, found that it was not just his aura of retribution or his wicked claws which made him effective, but his ability to avoid notice. Aside from hiding in the shadows, he learned that sometimes the best stealth tactic was to hide in plain sight; rather, enemies would not suspect a mere jovoc of being as powerful as Damaros was capable of. Over time, the little fiend gained more and more power; some say he has power enough to rival some of the lesser Demon Lords. Damaros says nothing of the sort. Indeed, Damaros has done little to seek glory or notice on his own, and he prefers to keep it that way. He served as a personal guard to more than one Demon Lord, though none seem to know just who he has served under, nor who he serves now.

When the news came that the Blood War was being put on hold, and that Demons and Devils would be working together, Damaros was furious. What fodder would he annihilate now? His concerns were put to rest when the issue of Thoon was elaborated on. Soon he would have plenty to annihilate. His deeply hidden ambitions, however, saw opportunity beyond this, however. Sow enough discord in the ranks of Thoon's mutant slaves and other servants, and perhaps he could gain enough influence to become a Demon Lord in his own right. The waiting would pay off. It was a tactic he had learned from his Devilish foes, but it seemed to work, and better now than he could have dreamed. So much opportunity was at the tips of his bloodied claws, and all Damaros had to do was survive long enough to seize it.

~DONE~

Morys Jendryg, Pyrothoondragon   

Barring buying an item that gave a Profane bonus to Con, my only real custom item was one that lets me Greater Plane Shift 1/day because I needed to not have to worry about needing to sleep on my Hoard for 8 hours once a week

If that is alright by you, Os.

All I lack is clever backstory to help me stand out from a crowd.
But at the same time, drawing attention is not what I want to do 
Acquiring masses of Thoon Soldier constructs and eating them as a very brute force method of attempting to have somewhat of a basis for coverting around Illithidland seemed like a bright idea. And we all know fire is very bright. Yes, yes, clever ketaro...clever...
Assimilation of Mind-Flaying Robots also manifesting as snazzy metallic eye-gear whilst in Deceivingly Innocent Form :v
This makes entire sense!
Better yet, Thoonbots gave him the power to blend into a crowd of inconspicuous little moooortals. By actually creating a crowd of inconspicuous little moooortals. Good Thoon, clever Thoon, gives us power Thoon.
The mechanical bits maaaaaay be crossing wires with his normal thought processes 

Oh jeebus I've been at this for hours. Time for sleep cause WORK 

[Raineh Daze]

I am such a glass cannon.

On the plus side, I have +13 to anything I don't have skill ranks in, but can use skills as if I do have half a rank in them. So... I can try and do basically anything?

The strange upshot is that, in a skill I use my int mod for anyway, I'm better off having no actual ranks in it if I'd have less than thirteen. So now I need to pick 16 languages.

EDIT: Mostly mechanically done. Need to work out the enchantments on their spellbook a bit better, I guess, and pick up a bunch of tools for opening things. Otherwise... behold! Magical nuke! Skill monkey! Very little HP or ways to reduce damage!

[SorO_Lost]

Soro_Lost: If you want a custom item of legacy, you'll have to run it through me. Most wotc "custom" design systems are filled with plenty of holes.

Ok. How about...

Nonlegacy game statistics: Feathered Wings, they can wrap around me for protection and flap to move things as an explanation for ability choice.
Requirements: Anything that fits my build at the 6th level.
Penalties: Table 4-3 (for rogue-like characters): -3 skills, -20 HP, 38,000gp.
Legacy Rituals: 1) Sneak through a camp unseen. 2) Assassinate, sic one-hit-kill, equal CR. 3) Endure an enemies wrath.
Legacy Item Abilities: Specifically wanting Cunning (lesser), the ripped greater abilities of Freedom of Movement, Mind Blank, and Death Ward for some protection filler.. From there it's all filler. So I guess as some more Lessers Between the Ribs appears to use 3 slots but it's a weapon property (+4 att/dmg when saing) if that's ok. Uncanny Dodge is theme fitting and Slippery Barrier is a smaller quickened grease. Least wise, Nondetection, Vision, & Telekinetic all would help with being a stealthy assassin.
Least: Telekinetic, Nondetection, Vision, 3 slots remaining.
Lesser: Cunning, Between the Ribs, Uncanny Dodge, Slippery Barrier, all slots used.
Greater: FoM, Mind Blank, Death Ward, all slots used.

And seeing the feat is required I'm changing the build a hair to include Swordsage. I really do like that clean kill.

[Raineh Daze]

I have five more languages than there are languages available to take.

[ketaro]

Hahahahahaha, I'm 20th level and I don't have Mindblank. Freakin delicious.

[Raineh Daze]

Hahahahahaha, I'm 20th level and I don't have Mindblank. Freakin delicious.

I don't have mindblank either. I don't even have anything like your nifty cloak. Just moving and trying to explode EVERYTHING.

... It's just a pain to try and get effects to stick to me.

[ksbsnowowl]

Ah, question answering!  A very important question that will heavily influence the flavor/backstory of my Abishai Ur-Priest:

You had said in the OP that many deities had lost power/died from lack of worship and assaults by Thoon.  Is Tiamat one of the dead gods, and can I then use the "dead god" adaptation of Ur-Priest?

Otherwise I'll just be a god-hating ur-priest (probably hated/hunted by Tiamat's minions...)

[SorO_Lost]

Hahahahahaha, I'm 20th level and I don't have Mindblank. Freakin delicious.

I don't have mindblank either. I don't even have anything like your nifty cloak. Just moving and trying to explode EVERYTHING.

Mind Blank is a double-edged sword. You give up Moral Bonuses which affect everything from Saves, Damage, to Ability Scores. Some times the lack of it is useful.

But I have everything form Darkstalker, Ring of Darkhidden, Detection, Magic Aura negating auras on my gear, Shirt of Waithstalking (see my light but not me? ok), and Mind Blank in an attempt to remain hidden per theme. If there was a way to hide from Touchsight I'd grab that too.

Anyway, if we have any Arcane Spellcaster in the group that's willing, Empyreal Ecstasy gives the party immunity to Mind-Affecting without negating bonuses that are already in place. Oh, and the party only takes half damage from melee/ranged attacks. Bards really get some amazing Spells.

[Raineh Daze]

Wrong spell-list for me. And I don't really have the slots for short-term buffs.

Besides, BoED?
