I don't recall Saiyan immunity, but I do remember them saying that if a saiyan is beaten half to death (or more accurate probably, just the more injuries they sustain), the stronger they get once they heal. It's why Vegeta was such a savage on Namek; they'd kick his ass easily, he'd hand their ass back to them once he healed (you'd think they'd catch on).

Which is pretty much "gain XP from combat encounters". Although, I think they have in-combat levelling in use.
I always understood it as "gain XP from combat encounters as if 1 level lower." In the official DBZ dice rpg, saiyans gained XP at 1.5 times that of another race if they were brought to less than 1/4 health, and 2 times that if they survived a near death experience.

An E6 build. Nice. And that would make a lot of sense too as vampires aren't necessarily going to be all that high a CR. At least not usually. And if it was any higher, an E8 build would likely be allowed instead.

Hadn't thought of a Mass Hold Monster or Person for the stop watch. I took it literally as being something like Time Stop.

Yeah, Stop Watch bought you time to directly attack critters, which you can't really do with Time Stop.

The biggest bitch against putting this guy up against a d20 Vampire with his traditional equipment is getting by the DR.

If you're actually playing  'Castlevania', you've only got 1 vampire to deal with, the BBEG himself. As far as building Castlevania I Dracula, his game abilities aren't particularly tough to just build a Savage Species custom HD block, At-Will Teleport, Fire Nukes, and a 1/day Polymorph into something nasty. Otherwise I suppose Warlock or Sorcerer is appropriate, potentially with reserve feats for at-wills.

I supposed you could always make the weapon Metalline for silver, or have him were those arcane gauntlets that treat his attacks as silver. That would work. Otherwise, I'd say put a true death crystal on the whip.

If doing an E8 campaign, I'd try to throw in a level of Sworn Slayer. Just because it'd be fun thematically. A Belmont is sworn to take down Dracula after all, and he would be the one you'd do Nemesis for.

I could see Dracula being both a sorcerer and warlock with one level of eldritch theurge.

I have thought about porting the DCCT to these boards, mainly because the new forum layout at the WoC forums makes my friggen eyes bleed. That, and I really wanna update my contributions to the thread, and finish a few projects I've had on the fire for far too long.

That said, finding the time to do it is still spotty at best, as I'm married now, and my time flexes between OMGNOTIME, to Do I have time.....please?

Glad to see my old Mega man build though. Still think Artificier is the way to go. You can acurrately reflect Mega man, regardless of series you decide you want to use. :D

And since this is my first post on a DnD board in about 2 years, I guess, the rumors of my demise are greatly...........kinda sorta right. :(

But, I shall fight! :D
Kinda back, in a limited sense. Currently working on a decent sized "I'm back!" project.

Current Project Progress: 7% Completed.

I feel the need to jump in and say Welcome back!  I miss some of your old threads, you should port them over.   :p

I was wondering how Dracula would go. I had originally thought that Strahd would make for a good substitute until I found out that he was a necromancer specialist with no conjuration or evocation. That's kind of the opposite of what Dracula is.

Vlad Tepes was build on another site, and they had him as a Aristocrat 5/Fighter 3, with the LM feat that made him able to stay in the sun for X rounds before he'd finally start bursting into flames. Personally I thought making him a Vampire Lord or Vampire Master would suffice, but that'd make him really powerful, and in the Castlevania games, you never actually meet another vampire (except maybe Alucard) so he couldn't have the Master Vampire PrC.

It's only nice and simplistic if you know what those flaws and feats are. Personally, I don't know three of them. At all. Also, red wizard? What super specialized wizard are you because you've given up like three schools now.

I agree with leadership though. Thematically it explains how you have all of those minions trying to kill the PC.

Flaws aren't important because any two will really do and which feats didn't you know? The only one that jumps out as odd is Cormarythian Moon Magic which can be found in Lost Empires of Faerun.

Don't actually need Leadership, there's a minion mechanic in one of the books that works quite a bit better, and doesn't require a feat investment.
[Spoiler]
A gygaxian dungeon is like the world's most messed up game show.

Behind door number one: INSTANT DEATH!
Behind door number 2: A magic crown!
Behind door number 3: 4d6 giant bees, and THREE HUNDRED POUNDS OF HONEY!
They don't/haven't, was the point. 3.5 is as dead as people not liking nice tits.

Sometimes, their tits (3.5) get enhancements (houserules), but that doesn't mean people don't like nice tits.

Though sometimes, the surgeon (DM) botches them pretty bad...
Best metaphor I have seen in a long time.  I give you much fu.
Three Errata for the Mage-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Barbarian-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Monks doomed to die,
One for the Wizard on his dark throne
In the Land of Charop where the Shadows lie.
