Beyond Mortal Limits Lies Unimagined Power!

Dragons walk the land, offering power to whoever is willing to grant their allegiance. As the world changes, the people of the Diamond Throne lands must change along with it. New powers and talents arise in this time of tumult.

Transcendence expands the scope of the Monte Cook's Arcana Evolved variant player’s handbook, offering an array of new character options, abilities, and paths of evolution. Customize your character to a greater degree than ever before, or swear allegiance to the dragons and transcend the bounds of flesh and mind.

This player's companion includes six new evolved classes, which allow a character to transcend the limits of mortal power. Its new mechanics add flexibility to the Arcana Evolved character classes, allowing each player to sculpt a class's talents. Highlights include the concept of replacement levels and class-specific feats. The book also contains new weapons and armor that change and shift in response to a character's wishes, adding a new layer of customizability to equipment.

Transcendence, the first rules expansion to Arcana Evolved, broadens the scope of options available to players and DMs. It is specifically designed so that all players—not just a subset—will find the book a useful, treasured addition to their libraries.
