I would like your opinion on adapting the Champion of Corellon Larethian prestige class to Mystara. This class appears in Races of the Wild and is essentially an elf swordmaster in the service of the elven patron diety. As I understand, there are essentially two elves who have gained imortality, Ilsundal and Mealiden. My question is: Which of those two best fits with this kind of prestige class? If neither of these, is there another option among Mystaran imortals that would make a better fit as this patron? Thanks to all. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- [Post 2] Author : eldersphinx Date : 09-29-07 12:27 AM Thread Title : Re: Mystaran take on Champion of Corellon PrC While I do own a near-complete set of Gazetteers (plus a few items from Hollow World), I don't own other Mystara resources dealing with Imortals.

My gut instinct is that Mealiden is the better fit, though a servant of Ilsundal could work just as well. As far as the Mystara canon is concerned, Ilsundal is the planner, the sage and the clan leader; Mealiden is the warrior, the explorer and the guardian. For a character whose ability focuses on swordsmanship and warfare, Mealiden is likely the best patron. (Note, also, that there are other elven Immortals. Eiryndul is the patron of the Shiye elves of Alphatia, and is a trickster and renegade god. Calitha Starbreeze is the patroness of the water elves, and arguably older than Ilsundal though less powerful and prominent. Rafiel is worshipped by the Shadow elves; he's not likely to sponsor an outright warrior-order. The Traldar woodsman-deity Zirchev is also revered by some elves, though he's not of elven heritage himself, as is the Forest Mother, Ordana. Of them all, though, Mealiden is likely the best fit for a swordsman type.) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- [Post 3] Author : Agathokles Date : 09-29-07 06:14 AM Thread Title : Re: Mystaran take on Champion of Corellon PrC My gut instinct is that Mealiden is the better fit, though a servant of Ilsundal could work just as well. Consider that Mealiden himself fits that description -- he is an elf swordmaster in service of the elven patron deity. He fits more the role of the protector than Ilsundal, but Ilsundal is the primary elven patron deity. BTW, among the elf immortals are also the Korrigan (9 elves, worshipped in Wendar mostly) and Lornasen (a minor Immortal from one of the Immortal adventures, IIRC).

You certainly helped me place that sensibly into my Mystara setting. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- [Post 5] Author : havard Date : 10-01-07 11:32 AM Thread Title : Re: Mystaran take on Champion of Corellon PrC Consider that Mealiden himself fits that description -- he is an elf swordmaster in service of the elven patron deity.

Personally I would allow the PrC to be used for any of the elven Immortals though, perhaps with the exception of Eiryndul.
