I'll add my praise as well - you've earned it. Great layout and quite clean. Thanks for sharing.

The Powers system is a great place to put all those "little exceptions" that make certain monsters difficult to write up. Excellent observation!

I'd be *very* interested in seeing your P'Tek Shamaness! Sounds quite dangerous - and good exercise for the system. Bravo!
