If it hasn't been done before I amy need some help with making one.
Has anyone come up with an advanced being that would come from a shadow wizard? I plan on playing one, and my DM has agreed that neither dragon nor avangion really fit the shadow wizard flavor.

Actually, someone did. I forget who and where. Check the forum archive.

With what I have in my revision though, it will be ten times better than it is now.
I second it.
Shadow Archon AB and Metamorphosis
There are 2 problems with it that may/may not need to be changed:
1) The manifesting prereqs are for 9th-level powers, as (in my game) PsyWar's aren't elible to become Advanced Beings (not normally, at least). You can drop this to 6th-level powers if you want PsyWars to be an applicable manifesting class.
2) The metamorphosis spells include a +100 mitigation factor for the Pristine Tower, as opposed to the +50 listed in Dregoth Ascending Part III. You can either revise the mitigating factors to reduce this to +50 and replace it with different factors (including the possibility of raising the Spellcraft DC), or you can just do what I do and say "to heck with it, epic spells are goofy enough as is so why bother..." and just leave it like that.
I think the only thing that I don't like very much is the (I hope Kal isn't reading this ;) ) compulsive symmetry aspects, like the same psionic enchantments and 10-step metamorphosis.
yikes! There are some very cool abilities in there, dirk. Congratulations.
Danke!

These were intended in order to keep this as "in line" with the athas.org AB's as possible, since both of their wizard AB's follow a similar pattern.
On the other hand, I'm not entirely positive that the psionic enchantments are identical - some are, or are really close, to the athas.org versions, but IIRC I also added and/or modified some.
...but I'm too lazy to open that doc and find out which. :P

*SNAP* Gone now is the rest of my sanity.
But hey Dirk - at least you did not try to cramp all of those abilities into say...like five stages just to avoid the idea of compulsive symmetry
;) [pokes fun at those who know what this is about and laughs manically]

AHA! So you do admit that you are in fact crazy!

Crazy like a fox :P
Mad for power.
I like to think I am just eccentric.
My genius is just so far beyond the scope of your understand and feeble intellect that the only way you can come to grasp with the enormous gap separating our IQ is to categorize it as insanity ;)

All he said is that the remainder of his sanity is now gone. That simply implies a lack of sanity, not that it's been replaced insanity. Insanity insinuates that he's the opposite of sane - I think he was just trying to say that he's merely lacking that aspect of humanity referred to as "sanity." Say, he's in a vegitative state while somehow retaining the ability to post to forum threads.
Edit: ...nevermind. I retract my post.

Don't make me send the robot ninja pirate after you with his plasma induction man-portable pulse rifle (aka the PIMP rifle)!
Yeah thats right - the PIMP will but you in the hurt locker!

You mean Sizzle? I like Sizzle. The noise let's me know when my food is cooked

Yeah - the sizzle of some place being burnt to the ground - like my players do to random temples in Draj -
I (and a minion :D) are currently working out the spell progression and I have a great start on the PrC - so maybe in a few weeks I will be able to post it.
