Cool

No rating this time. Instead, I just want to say that this is really cool and I plan to be using this in some of my future homebrew, supposing it can be finished. On that same note, I was wondering if I could lend aid in developing this rule. I was also wondering why you used such weird formatting for the carrying capacities. Why does it have to be 20^9? Can't it just be 5.12x10^11? -Hammerhead

Why thank you. This actually needs finishing one day (I want to find out how to collapse the tables, otherwise this will be very large indeed), but the important ones are done. This is partly cribbed from the Immortal's Handbook, though I believe our scaling differs too.
As far as the 20^9, if memory serves I remember picking up relative sizes of things from somewhere else, perhaps Wikipedia. Sadly math was my dump stat so I didn't bother fixing it lest I mess it up. Feel free to help! -- Eiji-kun (talk) 07:11, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
You should just go ahead and let it be a big page, if you can't make it auto-collapse. Either that, or find a person who actually knows how to collapse things and get the information. Though, if you want, I could take your numbers and make them prettier. To help me help you, could you give me a comprehensive list of what each size you've already created is supposed to correspond to. Also, instead of having a series of individual tables, why not simply have it all be one table? Were you wanting to go with any particular formula for the tables? How would you feel about comments and footnotes that give the reader an idea of what's supposed to be going on? Should there be additional rules when a creature is large enough that a planet is an Ioun stone to them? (Planetary Ioun magic item: It's a magic satellite.) Just vomit all your thoughts out. -Hammerhead
Eiji - add "mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" to the class declarations at the start of the table. Ex: {| class="zebra d20" -> {| class="zebra d20 mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" - Tarkisflux Talk 07:27, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
Joy! I shall deal with this later/tomorrow then, thank you! -- Eiji-kun (talk) 08:54, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
