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: On examination, I found that many of the RSRD prestige classes could be easily excluded from consideration. In …
Capstone talents are kind of tricky. Even I’ve had some trouble wrapping my brain around them, and I came up with the idea. I think there are two main reasons for this. First, they’ve changed purpose a few times. … and so on. It is difficult to describe something in …
Ascension to godhood, apotheosis, is handled like other character development matters — using talents. The rules for this are inspired by those from Mongoose Press’ Classic Play: Book of Immortals. Talent selection in Echelon is generally pretty freeform. As far as the rules are concerned, apart from the distinction between ‘upgrading’ and …
Okay, first draft for character creation. It’s pretty simple overall: I’ve got a slew of common talents defined (at least in draft): Divine Talents from Agents of Faith, Combat Talents from FantasyCraft, and more Combat Talents from Iron Heroes mastery feats.

Iron Heroes (originally from Malhavoc Press, now from Fiery Dragon Press) has ‘mastery feats’, groups of related feats that can only be accessed by characters with particular ‘mastery levels’ of a sort suitable for the feats. Classes provide different progression rates in the different masteries. Some might focus on “Power …
These talents are derived directly from FantasyCraft feat trees. FantasyCraft makes heavy use of some mechanisms that I have not decided to incorporate in Echelon yet. I will translate as I can, but will not at this time invest a lot of time in them. The talents in this document …
Agents of Faith: Crusaders of the Gods from Living Imagination Inc. provides a set of six feats for each domain described in the book. They are made available for characters of any class, but may be taken only with the feat slots gained every third character level. It is possible …
I am still working on a core rules document for Echelon, but I needed some talents in place to give the framework some content. I have several sources I will be leaning on heavily for talents: Iron Heroes (revised edition), FantasyCraft, and a supplement titled Agents of Faith: Crusaders of the Gods. …
