04-07-06, 06:25 PM Okay so for the campaign Im playing tomorrow I need to build a standard lvl-12 character, and two lvl2 characters.

The lvl12 shouldn't be hard, as it'll follow standard rules and whatnot, and will be a one-time-use character. I'll post a build later.

At least one of the lvl2 characters will see frequent use campaign-wise. It will be gestalt, and can use any rule item (feat, variant, etc) from any d20 supplement.
My idea is to go with a Feral Anthropomorphic Fleshraker Dinosaur (if such a thing is even possible) Tank, that will later fuse with a Gestalt Marilith/Soul Eater (after summoning one with planar binding).

Now, thats all well and good, and I hope to put a build up later, but as we gain experience very slowly with our low-lvl characters it needs to be partially front-loaded. As well, when we do gestalt we interpret HD/La to to only take up one side of the Gestalt (and I could put it like this by extension:
1. HD/LA
2. HD/Class )

So, with that in mind, my question to the lot of you is... can Fusion be made permanent? While Im working on builds for critique Id like an answer.

04-07-06, 08:48 PM to the best of my knowledge no. it was one of the major weaknesses of TGs omnipotent trinity build. as far as I know theres not even a way of persisting fusion. and of course dispell magic gets rid of the fusion effect as well so its not the greatest.

I remember the omnipotent trinity thread, wasnt there a discussion of an item of Continuous Fusion? Seems plausible.
