Does anyone have experience with this prestige class, from The Quentessential Wizard? It was/is a 3.0 D&D product.
Thank you!
PS: Specifically its these questions:
1: Are the words of Power Spell Like, Supernatural or Extraordinary abilities?
2: There is no mentioning of range, except for Word of Power, Sleep. What is the range of the other words of Power?
3: Are the words a [Mind-affecting] or (compulsion) effects? And do they function on mindless creatures?
4: It says that Word of Power, Pain does not function on creatures "immune to critical hits". What exactly falls under this category? Is it only undead, oozes, constructs, plants and incorporeal, or are there more?
5: It says that this is primordial magic that "scythe through barriers that would normally deflect magical spells" What exactly does that mean? As I read it, that means that normal arcane and divine spells does not interact with the words of power or in any way block it. Meaning that it would affect someone within Globe of invulnerability. Is this correct?
6: Is it actually physically necessary for the target of the words of power to hear the spoken words? Do they work on deaf people? Or do the words in fact function like the spells Powerword, Fear, Blindness, Kill?
7: The last word of power has a Greater Dispelling effect, cast at the Wordbearer’s total level. Does this mean that the normal max +20 casterlevel for greater dispelling does not apply here?
8: Being so old, powerful and primordial, does the words of power count as mortal magic in relations to affecting divine and primordial beings? Like that of Tharizdun, Lathander or Asmodeus?
Thank you!
