Please note, there will be no polymorph other spell in this schema. Being able to polymorph others is broken because it means you *need* to be polymorphed to be relevant at high levels, and that's no fun for anyone ( Read more... )

So, how does "alter self" work?

Barkskin provides 1+1/3CL, and lasts for 10min/level.

How about this:
Choose one:
1) Fly speed (average) = move speed
2) Swim speed = move speed
3) 1+1/3 CL natural armor bonus

Lasts 10 min/level, self only.

Also, how does awesome flight do with abilities that cost NA?

Actually, I wasn't going to have alter self. I was going to have Humanoid Form, or something similar. I want to nail down this before i actually try to write the thing, however.

Well, there's always playtesting... If you can't cast spells, I doubt it'll be a real balance killer. It's just a question of is worth casting.

Ok, I actually have a substantially revised version. I'll post it or somesuch as soon as I hammer out some details. Casting is back (at least to a degree).

Also, UMD is teh brokenzored with arbitrary scrolls. I don't approve.
