Nialo 04-02-06, 08:02 PM	He could turn into neither. A Solar has 22 HD, and the highest casterlevel you can get is 21 with a Ioun stone. A demilich is not a creature, but a template applied to a powerful enough lich, so you can't turn into one.
zlatko 04-02-06, 09:47 PM	And Lich is a template you apply on a corporeal living creature. And yet demilich is in the epic level handbook bestiary. Andcaster level is easy enough to raise to 22 for Solar. The question is (or shoul be): are these viable (as epic level creatures) for non-epic casters.
runestar 04-02-06, 11:07 PM	No for demilich, since it is not so much of a creature but rather, a template. Yes, for solar, if you can somehow get your caster lv to 22. There's spell power from heirophant, practiced spellcaster(if you have a bard to inspire greatness)... You augment your own spellcasting prowess with the phenomenal physical stats granted by a solar...go for it! I say. :cool:
