Favored Soul/Palemaster

Post by High Primate » Tue Oct 07, 2014 12:07 pm

Would this class combination be allowed, or no, since the Favored Soul's spells are considered divine?

Are they considered divine? Was that written down somewhere? All I heard is that the class is considered one like a cleric in terms of alignment restrictions for deities.

Divine in RP but not mechanically.

I don't remember who said this, because it was a long time ago, but it came from the staff.

If a character combination is mechanically possible, then it's allowed. Paladin/Bards, for example, don't need to ask for permission. If the staff wanted to disallow certain class combinations, they'd already be disabled.

That said, every character is subject to oversight, and challenging concepts especially have the potential to invite shoulder tapping. Pale Master still requires a PrC token, so I would advise you to request the token as early as possible, to ensure that your concept is acceptable.

Sounds cool. Do it.

Oh, yeah, totally do it. A Favoured Soul/Palemaster could be super neat in certain realms.

I can certainly see a ambiguous FaS/PM of Jergal. That could be eerily cool.

I, for one, think some Myrkul/Jergal/Done-To-Death Death Lord Velsharran worshipper would welcome their arms to be maimed in the name of their god's whims.

... sure. As stated, can be done, and could easily be interesting.
