(Note: You don't HAVE to be a Gnome. You just need to be Small. I couldn't resist the title, though.) So Iry pointed out Reduce Person. Which makes me feel very silly. Basically, the idea is you use 7 levels of Elemental Scion, combined with the Summon Elemental reserve feat, to ride around in an elemental all day. It only takes you a standard plus a move to reform one with the feat and move into it, which also resets the duration you can spend inside. The OP is the way to do this without Reduce Person. OP

So since I obviously haven't abused Ur-Priest enough, let's return to it for a sec.
Let's make a Gnome. Let's add one of those odd five-level Ur-Priest entires. Then let's add eight levels of Ur-Priest. So we're at 13 so far.
Now let's add seven levels of Elemental Scion, from Magic of Eberron. This lets you ride around in an elemental and be immune to everything while you're in it.
Now let's add the Summon Elemental reserve feat. See where we're going here?
On the CO IRC, generally as TorpedoFish. Vain? Me? NEVER.

You're the straightest shooter I know on these boards. You don't mince words about your opinions, and I respect that about you. The whole fiasco you described in the last State of the CO Forum was particularly enlightening (and kind of disappointing with regards to how they see us).
Ah, Tsuyo. When your post isn't one sentence long full of asterisks, you have much wisdom to share with us  .

Well, to ride around in said elemental it has to be summoned, called, or grown (as per a class feature of that PrC) by you. But Summon Elemental fits that just fine. Good catch!

You know, every so often I just find something that's simple and very, very good. Not broken-silly (Trollblooded, Martial Monk, Braid Blade, Shaedling, Ubermount) but just... really, really good.
This strikes me as a build that's actually perfectly functional in a game. You want to take lots of summon buffs anyway because they apply to Summon Elemental, which means that with the 8th-level Ur-Priest casting you get you've actually got some pretty decent summoning going on anyway. A side effect of Elemental Scion is that with Practiced Spellcaster your CL for spell subtypes that match the type you choose for ESi is 19. You also get Uncanny Dodge, and the ability to grow a telepathic Huge elemental out of your own body (which is NOT CREEPY, right?).

Maybe you've just spoiled me with all the epic win.

Hmm, just a grown Elemental? I thought that you had found the Races of Ansalon book and noticed the rules for Gnomish Contraptions in there. :P

This has the advantage of being... y'know... not third party.

Hmm, now you mention it. I always thought Dragonlance was an official setting. Never even noticed the big different logo...
