What does Sidhe Paragon give you anyway?

[Xantalos]

No idea.
...
Ross, what do my new levels in Winter Mage and Sidhe Paragon give me?

In other news, the tidal wave of questions begins again.

[Gamerlord]

We need to know these things for when we inevitably challenge the Retconmancer and the Gods!

[Ross Vernal]

Really good illusions. Oneness level. Illusions you can smell, that have shadows. You can make a coin look like a handful of gold. Plus, you can make dust. There's also the whole perfect flawless body, etc. You know, the Fair Folk.

The Hand puts you Beyond Measure. Imagine illusions that cast illusions, that hurt whether you believe or not. So on.

paragon levels are basically "ideal of the race". Einstein. Michael Phelps. Tesla. Jesus. Those are human paragons. It's a prestige class, and once you get the first, you can only get specific XP for it. You can only be one kind of Paragon.

In Myrln's case, he's High Court Sidhe, who choose to be Fey and was initiated by the royalty of Winter. He's gotten a full heritage and has an instinctive knowledge of how to use his abilities.

Winter Mage is what it sounds like. You have a host of cold, water, air, illusion, sleep, and other things that fall under your definition of Winter. Not mastery yet, but major powers.

[Gamerlord]

Interesting. Is it possible for all of us to get those kind of class/'prestige' levels?

I think that's called summoning, Ross.

[Xanmyral]

Yes, I believe so. They sound hard to keep getting though.

[Gamerlord]

Huh. Wonder what I'll get, maybe 'Necromantic Paragon'?

[Xantalos]

Okay, when I get my hand I'm confirming to get Hand of Glamour. I know that's only at the high levels, but YES is written all over that.

[Ross Vernal]

You have to belong to a race to be a paragon of it.

Yes, you can become an Undead paragon. I just expect some posts where Mor contemplates secrets, builds a new body, etc. Something to show the change. Maybe being tired of nearly dying all the time is a prompt for a backup traveling body. Or a high level undead servitor.

Summoning relies on the thing you summon existing, it having to answer, and it getting there. Illusions beyond measure are not subject to said limits.

[Gamerlord]

Oh this is wondrous news... I fully expect us to have a combined team spell called Mook Spam Apocalypse by the end of the quest after next.

[Ross Vernal]

I expect you to have an army when you both finish Act 2.

The survivors, at least.

EDIT: I kind of expect you to start making a horde of undead as a giant meat shield, honestly. Maybe even a ghoul horse or a Fleshy Abomination or something.

[Gamerlord]

Eh. We'll all be survivors. At some point I'm gonna replace us all with quasi-real necromantic/illusory golems that we can control at a distance so we won't be in danger.

[Xantalos]

Hm.
Question. What would I get if I took a level in Zealot (or whatever the term was for people who spread the word of a god but don't actually do the whole hierarchy thing) of Pantxike?

Oh, didn't see that last edited in bit. But my plans are less about hordes, however useful they are. Smaller teams of elite spellcasting undead will be far more effective. Basically I'm choosing quality over quantity. Also, if I can get other liches to follow me, then my plans will be so much easier.

P.S. Was the entire city destroyed?
