Questions/Question 356

I hope it's not too late to get a few questions in. I think this one is really complex, my character is already Monstrous in nature (A Dhampir Wizard from pathfinder). I.E, she has the various monstrous traits already associated with the spectral type, along with a few specific tweaks. (She's a psychic type vampire, drains emotions from others and herself, has enhanced strength, dexterity, lifespan and hypnotic eyes. And fangs, naturally)

If she's brought to the game, how much of her abilities would be suppressed, and would her "Regaining" vampiric powers as she bonds with a spectral type natural soul be something that would be, encouraged by the mod team? Or would you encourage the bonding of a different type of soul?

(Her wizardy would, I'm sure, be almost completely suppressed. Different world, different laws of physics. But I'm mostly interested in how a character that's already bonded to a vampiric spirit would be handled by the universe/story lines that are planned)

Never too late!

A vampire like that... Since we don't fully nerf characters who get into the game (we just want people to be mindful of not breaking the setting/stacking the odds against their characters), she will be able to possess many of her native abilities no matter which kind of soul you pick. It might take a lot more out of her to execute her powers, or it might be that she can't wield her native powers as freely as she used to. But they'll persist.

It can be an odd time, having overlapping powers with any given soul type. When being Augmented with a soul type that shares a lot of your character's powers, said powers might get a bit stronger, or more specifically suited to the setting, but that's about it. You'd definitely want to embrace some of the traits on the Spectral page that she doesn't possess to further emphasize her soul type for her Corruption, or while Shifted.

It is totally fine no matter which path you wish to pursue, but a more drastic Corruption would happen if you choose a soul type further from your character's native powers. I hope this helps!
