@Chemus: Not yet on the Blink Dog, unless you can find a way to increase your BAB by one. Penalties for switching out or losing familiars are lessened, though.
@bears: Dispel only suppresses a soulmeld, like a magic item. Dispelling the necrocarnum circlet only disrupts the connection, but the soul energy is still there. Unshaping it with spells or powers like Unshape Soulmeld would sever the link completely, though, and I believe that should you drop unconscious your soulmelds unshape. I'm not sure on that one, however.
Still, you're unlikely to come across any of that magic very often. If I manage to kill one of your zombies or otherwise ruin it, you will always have a chance to get another one, though not likely the same creature each time. Remember, Karma works
for you guys as much as it works against you. It's a balancing factor.
@TML: Don't dismiss action points so easily. Remember, they add bonuses to rolls you might otherwise miss, and in this game, allow you to reroll completely if you manage to screw up on a roll of some sort (you can even expend a Karma reroll to force me to reroll a successful hit or something, in which case I reroll with IC and link you guys to the result-However, Karma rerolls of all sorts carry random consequences. Usually minor, but the grander the usage, the more severe. It will never be enough to outright kill a character, but for example, if you forced me to reroll a hit that would otherwise kill your character, that carries a hefty Karmic value. My reroll might miss you, sparing your life, but you might suffer some ability damage as a result, or take a penalty to saves/AC, or what have you.
There's also a feat that lets you spend action points to recharge dragonmark powers, I believe. That could be incredibly useful in a pinch, when you can't sneak attack anyone and are otherwise stranded without use of your powers.
@Bowen: I keep hoping someone will play a full-up Binder so I can see a range of personalities RP'd, but no one is biting. Doesn't really fill your concept though.
If you play a Psionic character as you're indicating as your backup, I can't guarantee it'll be on Team Brain-power.
@Flay: It's a balancing act. I want to pair characters that work well together. You guys are doing a good job in helping out with that, though.
@Phaedrus/Bowen: Quick Recovery has no Prereqs.
