05-10-07, 12:43 AM OK, a friend of mine wants to play a Windwright Captain in FR, and as its based on feats witch don't exist in FR i have to adapt it for him.

I think the Windwright sounds very suitable for a "experimental" airship commander on a new type of airship build by Halruaah.

Windwright Captain (Eberron, Explorers Handbook)
The normal prereq. are:
Race: Half Elf
Skills: Balance 4, Prof(Sailor) 10, use magic dev. 6
Feats: Lesser Dragon Mark (now here is the biggest problem)
Special: able to cast at least 1st level arcane spells

How to adapt this prestige class to a Halruaan sky-ship captain?
any thoughts? :plotting:

05-10-07, 07:25 AM I'd say just drop the Dragon Mark requirement and anything related to it, replace them with something more suitable, and go from there. Maybe you could require Craft Wondrous Item or something to replace the Dragon Mark if its a big issue or something. If you're thinking Halruaa, take out the racial requirement and add in a regional requirement instead, and replace anything that refereces ship with sky-ship. Can't say I have the book in question or even seen the write up, but that sounds like a decent start to me.

Or drop the whole thing if an arcane caster.

05-10-07, 10:27 PM I think substituting it for other feats is good surely, as it makes it still a focus to get to, not just some add. spells to be learned, witch is to easy by itself.

I think "Magical Training" suits best in the fact it is with the fewest regions attainable, apart from Halruua.

Ability to cast:
Whispering wind and Gust of Wind

(and must take at higher level, when able to cast 5th lvl spells: Sending)

more ideas later..
