Obligitory Link: Planescape ThemesInteresting options this time around. Sensates: +1/2 level temp hp everytime they use an encounter/daily attack power, L6 utility that gives a weaker version of Shield Cipher: +2 init, free action to move your speed if you are not the highest result, once per day you can spend 2 AP an encounter, encounter stance that is interesting Xaositect: +2 power bonus to defenses vs OAs, cannot be suprised while conscious, The Die is Cast: a wild sorcerer type power if ever there was one

Random needs to still be good no matter what, random chance to waste your action or even penalize you is terrible design. The entire point of Xaositect is for Tiefling Dominates anyway
Sensates is fantastic.

Is there any way to get Sensates to trigger off Dragon Breath?

Whenever you use an encounter attack power or a daily attack power, you gain temporary hit points equal to one-half your level.

Don't see the problem. Per the RC every power is either attack or utility. If it isn't labeled as such, it is an attack power if it does damage. DB does damage.
So... that is a fantastic theme for a Rebreather. Easily deals with the incidental damage.

Sweet! I was worried because it's not explicitly labeled as an attack power. So, yeah, not just fantastic, I'd say it's mandatory for rebreathers.

It is pretty stunning. I avoided the zone abuse that allows the current DPR king to function when I played my build, but I tried really hard to only take a couple of damage. I could have easily tacked on 20 more damage per breath if I was willing to take ~10 damage per breath. 15 THP deals with that handily. Even in Paragon... yeah, wow.

I don't get this. Care to elaborate?

Typically it would be done with Evil Eye of the Vistani, but this saves a feat (at the cost of a theme, which for a controller isn't a huge deal I suppose). Divine Oracle PP's e11 Prophecy of Doom allows one person who hits the target to crit, Babble, which as a Minor Action doesn't even require an AP to combo with Prophecy of Doom, and the key in the combo is Glasya's Charming Words which boosts accuracy, and oh look, now that useless 0 damage crit has become a Dominate
