12-16-06, 03:00 AM Lately i'm working on different concept of dragonmark related class and feats. Here's my last creation, a warlock-like class that use dragonmark as its main source of power.

Dragonmark Adept
They have been seen in the most remotes of Khorvaire, the dragonmark adept are rare individuals, and for a simple reasons, since they bear more than one dragonmarks. Dragonmarked houses hunt them, but still they appear again and again, bearing their dragonmark and using them with ease and power.
The powers of dragonmark adept don't come from study or training, it comes from their parents. When a person that bear a true dragonmark mates with a bearer of an aberrant dragonmark, the offspring often gains tremendous power from the union. Taboo in the dragonmarked houses, and venered within the rare aberrant dragonmark communities, the dragonmark adept's possess great powers from the dragonmarks, able to manifest almost all of thems at the same time.
Unkonw to most dragonmark adept the origin of their power come from the union of both dragonmarks, as one absorb the strength of the other, giving it almost infinite power.
Race: Dragonmarked race only
Hit Die: d8

I don't really know at what you're refering to. But ill try to guess.

The dragonmark spell-like abilities gained with this class are the same as those gained with the feats.

If the character is a true dragonmark adept. At 1st, 6th, 11, and 16th, he must take a spell-like ability granted by its primary mark. At every other level (including 1st since he know 2 spell-like at that level) the character learn a spell-like ability granted by any mark.

If the character is an aberrant dragonmark adept. At every levels the character learn a spell-like ability granted by one of the aberrant dragonmark feats.

Both kind of dragonmark adept learn the following spell-like abilities (only true dragonmark learn aberrant spell-like abilities granted by siberys dragonmark since there is no aberrant siberys dragonmark)

Spell-like abilites granted by least mark at 1st level to 5th,
Spell-like abilites granted by lleast or lesser mark at 6th level to 10th,
Spell-like abilites granted by least, lesser, or greater mark at 11th level to 15th,
Spell-like abilites granted by least, lesser, greater, or siberys mark at 16th level to 20th.

06-17-07, 11:03 AM This seems like a NPC class to me, at least power-wise. It doesn't seem like it'll stand up to much. From what I remember, the spell-like abilities from Dragonmarks aren't that great. I would probably add some more that each mark can get in addition to the ones in the Eberron campaign setting.

well there are some new ones from the Dragonmarked book, Dragonmark Prodigy, Adept, and Visionary, add new SLA's to the regular dragonmarks, and then of course there's the lesser and greater Aberrant Dragonmark feats as well in that book. but you're right about it being mostly underpowered, it would need two good saves, if not three, and I would give it more skill points as well.

06-17-07, 05:20 PM I'll have to check out the new spell-like abilities in Dragonmarked.

I'm just glad that someone agrees with me that it's weak. It's a cool concept, and while it might not be proper for a base class, I would still like to see it work out so it's balanced.

daganisoraan 12-17-06, 08:24 PM	what are there spell like stuff? ben I don't really know at what you're refering to. But ill try to guess. The dragonmark spell-like abilities gained with this class are the same as those gained with the feats. If the character is a true dragonmark adept. At 1st, 6th, 11, and 16th, he must take a spell-like ability granted by its primary mark. At every other level (including 1st since he know 2 spell-like at that level) the character learn a spell-like ability granted by any mark. If the character is an aberrant dragonmark adept. At every levels the character learn a spell-like ability granted by one of the aberrant dragonmark feats. Both kind of dragonmark adept learn the following spell-like abilities (only true dragonmark learn aberrant spell-like abilities granted by siberys dragonmark since there is no aberrant siberys dragonmark) Spell-like abilites granted by least mark at 1st level to 5th, Spell-like abilites granted by lleast or lesser mark at 6th level to 10th, Spell-like abilites granted by least, lesser, or greater mark at 11th level to 15th, Spell-like abilites granted by least, lesser, greater, or siberys mark at 16th level to 20th.

From what I remember, the spell-like abilities from Dragonmarks aren't that great. I would probably add some more that each mark can get in addition to the ones in the Eberron campaign setting.

I would probably add some more that each mark can get in addition to the ones in the Eberron campaign setting. well there are some new ones from the Dragonmarked book, Dragonmark Prodigy, Adept, and Visionary, add new SLA's to the regular dragonmarks, and then of course there's the lesser and greater Aberrant Dragonmark feats as well in that book. but you're right about it being mostly underpowered, it would need two good saves, if not three, and I would give it more skill points as well.
Ecureuil_Diabolique 06-17-07, 05:20 PM	I'll have to check out the new spell-like abilities in Dragonmarked. I'm just glad that someone agrees with me that it's weak. It's a cool concept, and while it might not be proper for a base class, I would still like to see it work out so it's balanced.
