Ultimate Dream Build #25: Crossover Event
« on: February 21, 2016, 09:11:54 pm »
Hello, and welcome to Ultimate Dream Builds!
This is a contest where the sky is the limit on what you think you can create. Let your dreams about how it would be like in the Star Wars Universe guide you as you create unique and amazing character builds. Now to the rules:

1) House rules can only be used if you carefully explain your rules as part of your build.
2) Builds are limited to a max of Heroic Level 20. For Classes, Feats, Powers, and Talents, please use official Saga Edition sourcebooks as much as you can. If you have a house rule, you have to explain it in detail so we can understand the mechanics of it.
3) Unlimited Point Buy is allowed.
4) You are limited to 3 builds per contest. This keeps it a fair game.
5) Please stay on topic of the thread. If something needs to be discussed more in detail, please start another thread and move your thoughts there. This keeps the contest thread clean and simple.
6) You will have 21 days starting from the 1st posting of the current contest. After the 21 days, 7 more days for voting will be available. Winners will be decided by a simple majority of the cast votes for the submitter that has the largest total number of votes. Only Two votes per member is allowed (but One vote per build) You may not vote for yourself and no redos. All VOTES ARE FINAL!
7) The most important rule: HAVE FUN!!! Think outside of the box, and let those awesome dreams we all have take shape!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This month we are going to have some fun. We've seen contests for almost every major faction within the wider Star Wars Universe. However, as many sci-fi fans are, we may not just be into Star Wars full time. Some might be massive Trekkies. Other might like Stargate, Babylon-5, Doctor Who, Firefly, Battestar Galactica, or any other sci-fi universe out there.

Well, time to put your Saga building skills to the Test! Take one or more of these other sci-fi universe and create characters and/or starships from them (limit 3 total builds, as normal)

Only one major rule: You must use only official Saga sources for the builds. No House Ruled talents, feats, Force powers, or skills! Explain how talents and feats simulate your favorite characters or ships. Make us believe it.
Also, No Marvel or DC (I'll do a future crossover contest for them)

Contest in now OPEN. You have until March 14th at 11:59pm Pacific Time to submit your builds. Good Luck and May the Force Be With You!

No restrictions on starting stats within the point buy system,  so if you want to,  you can use 96-point buy and get all 18s or use something a bit more realistic. You may roll stats as well,  though many just use point buy to save time

I am White/Blue.
I am both lawful and rational. I'm extremely orderly, and rely on complex rules and laws, upholding them whenever I can.
At best, I am organized and law-abiding. At worst, I am bureaucratic and totalitarian.

Lelith Hesperax        CL 18

Lelith Hesperax is the Succubus of the Wych Cult of Strife. She is best known for her abilities in the Dark Eldar coliseums and is considered the undisputed master of the gladiatorial arenas. Instances have been recorded of her fighting up to ten opponents simultaneously without receiving a scratch. Her preferred combat dress is to expose as much bare skin as she can and to wear her floor-length hair loose in order to taunt her opponents into attacking, a fact that draws significant attention from spectators. She is a master of all Wych Weapons, but is most commonly seen wielding a simple pair of wickedly sharp knives. In addition to her conventional weapons, Lelith's hair is sewn through with barbs and hooks and her fingernails have been honed to scalpel sharpness (represented by various vibroblades).

Away from the coliseums of Commorragh and on the battlefields of the 41st millennium she is unmatched in hand to hand combat and her speed and skill make her a truly deadly opponent.
