So I got access to the Ruathar from Races of the Wild from an LG scenario. I looked in the new LGCS and could not find a reference on how to handle the first level class feature of "gift of the Elves".

Not to give away too many spoilers, this class feature is effectively a free magic item.

How should this be handled? Or did I miss it in the new LGCS?

Around here (Keoland) we have to pay for the elven item, it's no freebe.

Or on another source of access, it is a freebie, but you also have to spend 2,800 gp and a TU to throw a celebration party/ceremony.

02-20-07, 01:53 PM No, actually, if you gain access through a Keoland metaorg the rules are in the metaorg document. If you gain access in a Keoland mod the rules are as follows:

Now, if you gain access through a Core source (and it is out there), a Core ruling is needed. There is none to my knowledge.

Britt just addressed it in the "LG Questions" thread on this board. Fundamentally: if it's in a Core module, and no other notes are given, put it on your MIL with a 0 gp cost.

02-20-07, 04:55 PM Yes, that's why I had just asked him.
:)
If it's regional, contact your triad.

Now we're giving free magic items away?

02-20-07, 05:45 PM That's what the PrC does. It doesn't say "They let you purchase one of the following". It's a gift and gifts are free.

02-20-07, 06:10 PM Wow, I like that we are letting the PrC work without inserting any meta-rules into it. It feels oddly reaffirming to know the game will play as it's written.
