d20 - acclimatized planar traveler feat (3e)

New Feat for d20

Copyright © 2005 by Patric L. Rogers

Created July 2005

(Note that I wrote this before I saw the “Naturalized Denizen” feat in Unearthed Arcana [Wizards of the Coast].  This feat pair is completely obsolete after that feat.  The only advantage to this feat pair is that it does not require exposure to the dimensional anchor spell first.)

Acclimatized Planar Traveler [General]

The character is an experienced planar traveler able to easily blend into the fabric of other planes.

Prerequisites:  Knowledge (the planes) 4 ranks

Benefits:  After 24 hours on a plane, the character no longer has the extraplanar subtype and is considered a native of the plane and cannot be dismissed.  This does not provide special protection from environmental hazards.

Normal:  When a character visits a plane other than the one he is native to, he acquires the Extraplanar subtype.

Improved Acclimatized Planar Traveler [General]

The character is an experienced planar traveler able to easily blend into the fabric of other planes.

Prerequisites:  Knowledge (the planes) 8 ranks, Acclimatized Planar Traveller

Benefits:  The character no longer has the extraplanar subtype and is considered a native of the plane and cannot be dismissed.  This does not provide special protection from environmental hazards.

Normal:  When a character visits a plane other than the one he is native to, he acquires the Extraplanar subtype.
