Red Dragon Dsiciple?

[raenir]

I'm thinking one of these days of making a sorceror, theoretically a sorceror have draconic heritage making RDD an attractive roleplaying choice, what I would love is to make a sorceror, get to 6th or 8th level and take the class, find an epic level druid who can shapechange into a dragon and rp it that hes my Lord Dragon or something or other, but generally in gameplay terms it would make do for making a "tough"/resilient sorceror albeit at the expense of caster levels (unless praticed spellcaster does what I think it does).

Basically would it be possible to via request be allowed to take RDD class for primarily RP reasons.

I'm not a dm anymore, but i know their line of thinking.

If the staff does it for one they will have to do it for everyone and they will be back to square one with a sudden influx of RDD's

[raenir]

I'ld think a slong as its done "by request" with some kind of oversight RDD commitee they can easily sort out those who do it out of cheese and those who do it for genuine fun/rp reasons. One would think rule 14 (at least 3 or 4 levels in each class by lvl 20?) would be enough to balance the percieved imbalance of it.

Perhaps we could change the name to PDD: Pink Dragon Disciple. Somehow I think the name alone would discourage people from using it.

I prefer Purple myself

[Zealote]

Purple Dragon Disciple? They come from Cormyr? ;D

Their laudable goal is to bring the flame wars to a whole new level of lowness.

They also walk naked and they refuse to bite the popsicle.

I remember way back to what Beta 1 or 2 when Ionix (me) rolled in with a RDD... Man I can just laugh at the thought of it now, but yeah bringing in the fact of the RDD probably is not a good idea. There are a lot of Power Builders and for one they can be quite overpowered.

Bonus Spells: Dragon disciples gain bonus spells as they gain levels in this prestige class, as if from having a high ability score, as given on Table: The Dragon Disciple. A bonus spell can be added to any level of spells the disciple already has the ability to cast. If a character has more than one spell casting class, he must decide to which class he adds each bonus spell as it is gained. Once a bonus spell has been applied, it cannot be shifted.

Perhaps we would see some Sorcerer-Dragon Disciples instead of Warrior-Dragon Disciples if the class would give out the bonus spells according to PnP.

Considering how the game is, perhaps it could be worked around as '1/2 spell casting progression', the way it is done with the War Priest prestige class.

I will have to admit how I would be more keen on making; Sorcerer/Red Dragon Disciple/Eldritch Knight build. I've made those in the past, and the +five spell casting levels would rock. ;D

Hey. have you been approved for it?

How about you bypass the RDD drama, and if your approved to be RDD we just give your character wings, a tail, and the stats for half-dragon and you just keep being a sorcerer.
No, I'm not kiding either.
You been approved.........



If your going to be RDD you should at least look the part.

[Tiefling]

Aye, wings would be so cool. I wish my tiefling would get ones aswell.

[DEV Jlf2n]

uuummmmm yeah, no. ;D

[broham1]

While we're at it I want a +50 Longsword of sharpness, that allows me to cast Finger of death 10/day.....It's for RP I assure you...
