02-02-06, 12:35 PM Currently the spell cannot be applied to centaurs as there is no list of possible creatures that they can reincarnate into.

Can this be adjusted in the bright sands guidelines, or in the LGCS?

02-02-06, 01:43 PM What options are you going to give them? It's clear from the spell description that you cannot change type as a result of being reincarnated. All of the creatures in the reincarnate table are of type Humanoid, while centaurs are Monstrous Humanoid. Short of a slim chance that he would come back as a centaur (probably no more than 15%, as that's the largest spread in the current table), there are no other Monstrous Humanoid races permitted for PCs to use in the campaign.

I suppose we could say "If reincarnate is cast on a centaur PC, roll percentile dice. On a result of 01-15, the character remains a centaur. On a result of 16-100, the character is immediately and permanently removed from the Living Greyhawk campaign."

02-03-06, 02:22 AM What about a Bright sands Human, who uses the special Centaur Cert as his first cert... without actually being a centaur. Then when he dies, he gets reincarnated... Does he get the option of being a centaur? Is he then forced to progress through the racial class levels?

I only ask becouse I thought about doing it... Building a decent fighter then trying to get myself killed and reincarnted as a centaur.

02-03-06, 03:10 AM The centaur cert is only for centaur characters. There is no reason a human character bright sands or not should have the cert. The very first sentance on the cert is ______ is a Hueleneaer Centaur. Later on it say The character starts at first level with the centaur monster class from races of the wild. If a human gets reincarnated they use the standard table which does not have centaurs on it.

I think the easiest solution it to allow centuars to be reincarnated but if they roll anything but a 100 (come back as the same race) they are a monster that can not be played and are imediately retired from the campaign. Actually the solution to simply not allow the spell to be cast on centaurs is better. Either way it should be explicately included in the LGCS.
