381. | DR119 | Dragon #119 | D&D® Immortals Set: Can an Immortal in a tetraspace
use power to cross a planar boundary
or create a magical effect? | | Immortals in a tetraspace cannot use
power to cross planar boundaries, but
they could leave the plane through a previously
constructed gate. They can, however,
use power to memorize spells (one
spell per round, as long as the power
holds out), then cast those spells as a mortal
would. Note that spells require at least
four dimensions, and direct use of Immortal
power requires at least five. If the
dimensional requirement isnt met, then
the magic in question cannot work,
whether related to a spell, Immortal, or
artifact. |
382. | DR119 | Dragon #119 | D&D® Immortals Set: What, exactly, is interdimensional
travel? | | Interdimensional travel is the ability to
cross into spaces with varying numbers of
dimensions. It is similar to interplanar
travel in the sense that dimensions have
boundaries just as planes do. |
383. | DR119 | Dragon #119 | D&D® Immortals Set: Why do mortals gain the ability to
see the fourth dimension while in
the Astral Plane? Are they then in
fact seeing four dimensions? Can
this effect be duplicated elsewhere? | | Mortals see, at most, three dimensions
usually the first, second, and third. On
the Astral Plane, this shifts to the second,
third, and fourth. The shifting of dimensional
perspective is a unique effect of the
Astral Plane. Wishes can also be used to
shift dimensional perspective up or
down one notch per wish. It is possible
that a mortal using a properly constructed
artifact could also make such shifts (DMs
option as to the availability and construction
cost of such artifacts). |
384. | DR119 | Dragon #119 | D&D® Immortals Set: How can an Immortal enlarge his
home plane? | | Home plane enlargements are made by
permanent power expenditure. The cost is the same as that of moving the plane (DMs
Guide to Immortals, page 21). This expenditure
results in an enlargement of each
dimension in the plane equal to the minimum
size for the number of dimensions
present on the plane (DMs Guide to Immortals,
page 10). Home planes are always
bounded spaces; no amount of power
expenditures can make them infinite.
For example, a five-dimensional standard
plane extends five trillion miles in each
dimension. A permanent expenditure of
640 PP causes the plane to expand 5,000
miles in each dimension (5,000 miles is the
size of a microplane, the smallest fivedimensional
space there is). |
385. | DR119 | Dragon #119 | D&D® Immortals Set: How is nonmagical life created on
an Immortals home plane? | | Non-magical life is created by spending
permanent power. The Immortal makes a
permanent expenditure for a create monsters
spell of the appropriate type for the
creature(s) to be created, with additional
permanent expenditures for any unusual
abilities the new life-form possesses (DMs
Guide to Immortals, page 20). |
386. | DR119 | Dragon #119 | D&D® Immortals Set: Page 16 of the Players Guide to
Immortals gives a method and PP
cost to extend the duration of a magical
effect, and a different method
and PP cost to extend both range
and duration. Which is correct? | | Use the information on extending both
range and duration in the third column on
page 16; ignore the information in the
second column. |
387. | DR119 | Dragon #119 | D&D® Immortals Set: Are the magical effects listed on
the inside back cover of the DMs
Guide to Immortals the only effects
usable by Immortals of Entropy?
| | The inside back cover lists the only
powers usable by those Entropy Immortals
known as demons, but there are other
Immortals of Entropy who can use any
magical effect at the appropriate Sphere
cost. |
388. | DR119 | Dragon #119 | D&D® Immortals Set: How about creating a path to Immortality
that favors demi-humans? | | There is no path that favors demihumans,
this being one of the many drawbacks
of the demi-human classes. If you
wish to have a path that favors demihumans,
it should be Polymath since all
demi-humans have fighting abilities. |
389. | DR119 | Dragon #119 | D&D® Immortals Set: Can a magic-user friend of a character
who is following the Epic Hero
path to Immortality make the Epic
Heros artifact for him? | | An Epic Hero must obtain a major artifact
from the Sphere of Thought (see
Master DMs Book, page 15). No mortal can
create an artifact, and no Immortal will
create an artifact for a mortal seeking to
become Immortal. |
390. | DR119 | Dragon #119 | D&D® Immortals Set: Can an Epic Hero have help on his
quest? | | An Epic Hero may lead a party on his
quest, trial, or task (see Master DMs Book,
page 15). He must, however, be the unquestioned
leader. |
