sabrewolf 01-31-05, 06:07 PM	hmmm... this arcanite sounds a bit like adamantine.. or a better version, kind of... i jsut gor warcraft 3 d20 but havent got the chance to read it yet.. :weep: too much work.. err.. is it in there somewhere?? Is there any other power, effect or even flavour effects besides these improvements..?? any othe trait would be helpfull at thinking about that one..
Uratoh 01-31-05, 06:17 PM	Arcanite is in the Warcraft D20 main book...it's dull grey in color, etc. in WC3, it was the material the 'level 3' equipment for Orcs was made from. It's not really admantine...it's more magically springy and flexable...hmm...arcanite golem might be a bit faster (movement rate or dex) than a normal one... Revealed in World of Warcraft, Arcanite does not occur naturally, it is transmuted from Thorium (which IS similar to admantine).
sabrewolf 01-31-05, 07:57 PM	weehee.. sorry then.. heh.. better read the book first thing when i get the chance.. :D The īfasterī part make some sense.. yet for the other bit, seems then itīs not only made by infusing the base material with arcane (or general magic) energy but it remains heavily charged by it... hmmm.. maybe a golem made wiht that would have an appearance similar to the helmet horror/batle horror - cant recall wich of the two floats on an air sphere.. :thinks: err.. Itīs powers could be related to raw magic - in form of bolts or enhancing magics inscripted on them by the rune-golem (that the name?) template - or it could use this energy and materialize it as force effects - it could have an armour enhancement, force shield and weapons.. and maybe he could create and/or ignore/go through force fields/planes/walls effects... Anothe idea would be a shield golem made with that.. deppending on how much energy is soaked into his arcanite, this golem could be a walking node/focus for the spellcaster itīs bound to, giving bonus CL for his spells while within range; it could regenerate your mana at some small rate if you use that rule.. and a small construct familiar mde with that could have similar effects or jsut look darn cool... heh.. :D
