Cosmic Descryer - Epic Prestige Class
This Prestige class uses elements that may not be applicable to the Forgotten Realms Campaign
The cosmic descryer is interested in the infinite variety of the planes and fascinated by the different layers of the multiverse. She uses experimentation to grow knowledgeable in the whirl and gyre of the cosmos, developing an extraordinary affinity for all things planar. Furthermore, she derives power from that fundamental understanding. She is particularly adept in the summoning arts, able to call and command the most powerful outsiders known. She can travel to other planes with ease, adapting herself to those otherworldly environments no matter how alien.
By necessity, spellcasters are the only classes eligible to become cosmic descryers. But most spellcasters, whether divine or arcane in nature, can eventually advance into this epic prestige class.
The cosmic descryer can serve a variety of capacities in an ongoing campaign. She is a useful part of an adventuring group that travels to different planes of existence or that has frequent need of an outsider's help. Even if she doesn't travel very often, a cosmic descryer can help anyone who seeks knowledge through scrying or communication with outsiders. The Gleaners employ cosmic descryers, as does the Planar Cartographic Society.
