Hey all,

I was wondering if anyone has worked out any versions of the dragon/avangion/elemental metamoprhosis?

I'm not a fan of the Epic rules and was just curious if anyone else had worked anything else out.

not sure what you mean by this.... if you mean you are not happy with the rules from athas.org.... then yes there are tons of verisons out there (heck I have done 3 or 4 versions of each myself.)

If you mean a version that is done before a character is pre epic (pre level 21) then I seriously doubt it as that would go against everything in the fluff and history of dark sun.

I have however created transformational classes that would do something similiar for other worlds... but they are nothing compaired ot the might of the dragons from Athas.

Sorry, allow me to clarify,

I am not a fan of the rules from the Epic Level Handbook (not liking the epic rules in general I have no specific opinion on the athas.org rules)

I have no preference for pre-21 rules or not, just rules that don't make use of the epic level handbook stuff. So post-21 rules would need to include there own form of advancement (like the old 2nd edition rules iirc) and pre-21 rules would likely need to be soem sort of prestige class transformation ala the Elemental Savant I suppose.

So you are asking if someone has totally rewritten the epic level rules entirely.....

Yes I have actually done that before, in a D20 modern conversion of the Dark Sun system. I actually do not release that information any more due to the fact that my playtesters that I sent the earlier rules to never gave me the feedback I requested, which frankly annoyed me considering the amount of work that I put into it.

To totally rewrite the entire system like I did took months of work.... and most people are not willing to put that much effort into something that they would be strictly just for their own use.
