Where is the paladin that Frank posted? I've been trying to find that line he used to describe the average person for a while to show my players, but I can't find it.

Here. Unfortunately, it's not the whole class, but it does have those quotes.

Another random question:

I really like the Skill Feats in the compilation PDF. Is there a skill feat already written for Autohypnosis? If not, I'll write one (not soliciting help), but if one exists I'd like to see it.

I don't believe there is one. Autohypnosis is definitely ripe for a feat, though; it's a weird skill that doesn't fit that elegantly in to the system, very niche, and a feat can give it a proper purpose.

If such a skill existed, it would be a piece of shit which you should not even acknowledge.

I don't know the details, but Autohypnosis really sounds like it should just be an application of the Concentrate skill.

Now that you mention it, "Autohypnosis" sounds like a good Concentration skill feat.

No way is it worth a feat. Unless the term "skill feat" has some connotation/meaning I'm aware of.

It would make a decent skill trick, but ultimately it seems like it'd be easiest to just make it an innate part of the concentration skill. The value really isn't worth enough to make any sort of extra cost to get it necessary.

Lol, that only took a year to reply, heh. I've already written the Autohypnosis feat (and made it quite a bit better than it was previously), I';; post it in It's My Own Invention within the next week or so (posting stuff I've written piece-meal as I find it. I need to organize my backup hard drive).

If anyone is at all interested, the Autohypnosis [Skill] feat is in the 7th post of the linked thread.

Psuedomental Being refers to something called Elemental Bodied, what is this from? found it. Could taking Infusion of Elemental Essence count?

Didn't there used to be links to the different Tome threads in this thread? If so, I'm sure not seeing 'em here.

After the forum came back online (big thanks to Zherog et al.), I wanted to go take another look the Tomes and haven't been able to.

Yeah, Bigode's first post and some number of posts after it are mysteriously missing.

If it used the whisper tag, it'll be easy for me to restore. So fingers crossed that's what it is. In the meantime, though, I'm gonna toss a temporary lock on this thread just in case it's something else.

I want to try to look at this today, but it may not be until tomorrow. I'll unlock as soon as I have it sorted out.
