Green Ronin’s Advanced Player’s Manual contains an Eldritch Weaver class, and while I don’t plan to use this class, the Eldritch Threads look like they’re a pretty good fit for one model of spell casting in Echelon. This class was based around arcane spells and doesn’t dip much into divine spells. …
GreyKnight, one of the Echelon collaborators, did up a sample character. Note that most of the cornerstones and capstones are not yet defined, but I think they still suggest the shape of the character. The common talents I think are all defined, each in one of the draft talent documents. …
Okay, second draft for character creation. Nothing much has changed, really, just a couple little refinements and adding magic points (calculated in much the same way as hit points, but using Level Bonus instead of Level, and the modifier for Iron Will on magic points is smaller than the one …
Some new talents, including some common structural talents (Martial Training, Great Fortitude, Lightning Reflexes, Iron Will) and a couple cornerstone talents. This document is far from complete, and may well be split up as individual sections become better-populated… but it’s a start.
It’s November 19, and I haven’t had anything resembling a formal status check. I should fix that. On the project page I identified the following bits to be developed. Status 2012/11/02 RSRD Game Elements Given that I am starting from the Revised System Reference Document, the following game elements will be …
Now to convert the Shadowdancer prestige class to capstone talent. Prerequisites This prestige class can be achieved after seventh level (10 ranks in Hide required) and spans ten levels. I’m going to plan this to be a three-tier capstone talent starting at the Expert tier. Skills: Move Silently 8 ranks, …
I may have gotten lucky on my first choice of prestige class to convert. Arcane Archer actually fit the model well. Some of the other prestige classes, not so much. On closer examination it appears that many of the RSRD prestige classes can be better handled in Echelon as common …
Dwarven Defender in Echelon. This is a first draft, since it’s my first attempt at any capstone and the reasoning process needs to be debugged as well as the actual results. This is a 10-level prestige class, so corresponds to two or three capstones. It seems to me the powers …
Okay, following the process described in What are Capstone Talents, and How Do I Make Some?, I will break down the Arcane Archer prestige class and build a capstone talent. Prerequisites Elf or half-elf I am inclined to remove the racial prerequisite, I see no mechanical reason to require that …
Now that I’ve described a process for creating capstone talents from prestige classes, I think I’ll give it try using prestige classes from the Revised System Reference Document. The classes to be considered: Arcane Archer Assassin Dwarven Defender Shadowdancer On examination, I found that many of the RSRD prestige classes could …
