This thread begins the next segment of the now blatantly obvious Game threads. known to some faggots as the 'gay bath house'
3 weeks have passed in game time, and Port Barry is largely rebuilt and restructured, though evidence of previous battles are still observable in the architecture, walls, etc.
The people have grown stronger, emboldened by the party as their benefactors, and have taken to Football and the message thereof with great zeal.
Any players wishing to join need simply announce themselves and will be beaten included at the earliest ability.

Then again, Ponimaru would become a monster upon evolution, and would no longer be as easily controlled with the Handle Animal skill. Tracy should train him first, level herself up as Blackguard to make him her fiendish servant, and then transform him.
>>13200
Perhaps, or just horse even, like Ponimaru. The name for the Assassin cult was going to be the Four Horses guild (as an allusion to the four horses of apocalypse, or the four mares of Diomedes; it's Coat of Arms being a blood-red clover, to symbolize the 404 mark of 4chan). It was going to be a regular guild, but I just remembered that Tracy, as an awakened horse, can speak horse: this turns every horse in The Game into a potential NPC. I could just have Tracy enslave/recruit and train other horses in the game, and transform them with her blood, and a magic ritual if need be. Ponimaru could be her first as Tracy's fiendish servant: if he resists, Tracy can just break him like a horse, Intimidate him, or just straight-up melt his brain.

You know how unicorns are supposed to be tied to reality or some bullshit that makes them insanely powerful? Trump just might have a unicorn Tracy can break and train. Assuming she wouldn't rather be a fashion designer, or can do both.

Not sure if Unicorns, being magical beasts, are so easily trained, but it's an idea.
I actually intended for this to be sort-of a semi-secret project for Tracy to do herself, but sure, whatever (since Trumpaladin can't speak horse, it would just look like Tracy chatting with horses at first). It's not exactly the kind of thing a Paladin would be associated with though, but I don't think there's be any problems unless he does any needless prying.

This unicorn is being trained. Believe me.
If Tracy is developing a center of power completely in secret and independently of him, Trump is going to be pissed if he ever finds out. Developing an NPC power base in perfect secret screams bad intentions, an assassin's guild screams worse intentions. Combined with the fact that Trump is both paranoid about people's intentions, including Tracy's, and he doesn't like to be left out of power and decisions. There's also the usual "why the hell did you not offer these resources when we needed them." Trump would never stumble upon the cave by accident, as you said, he's not going to understand what is going on from conversations with horses, and he's not going to ask Tracy where she's been for six hours or what she did last night, and expect any serious detailed answer. What might happen is that he audits Tracy (for unrelated reasons, he asks her under spells every tiny thing she's doing and done) and discovers it, or he wants to know where Ponimaru is, or why there is so much hay moved, or if the group does something that raises suspicion and causes him to pry.

Now, if Tracy doesn't keep it secret per se, and tells Trump "I can speak to these horses and make them do things for you," Trump would be pleased and is not going to ask just precisely what she's doing and how, deliberately overlooking questionable practices if necessary.
Except he would not approve of more Nightmares or other outsiders. Outisers are haram

Just wait and see. It'll take a while before it's anything of worth anyway. The horses wouldn't be useful for complex tasks in the beginning anyway; they'd really just be NPCs who live in fear of the infamous ghost hoers.

I'm asking because you would know. Would crossbow bolts from heavy crossbows have any effect at all on a Terrasque - assume adamantium, poisoned, or however powerful bolts. Is there a simple way to protect a large number of NPCs from area of effect spells, at least for a time? And what are the terrasque's modes of attack?

Idk, I'm new to this. Look it up.
The thing regenerates at such a rate that nothing can do lethal damage on it. You have to bring up non-lethal damage to a massive extent, and then use some kind of spell to keep it dead.
The real issue is the faggot-nerd controlling it: better to take out the nerd first, and then redirect the rampaging beast to an unpopulated area, where it could be killed with an army and planned systemic attacks/traps.

That's just fine, all I want to do is to soften or distract it. As for the nerd - how could you possibly get him to dismount so you're not facing both at the same time? I would think there have to be ways to trick him into a location where he can't bring the thing. Alternatively, fire enough Ballista bolts at him that he can't dodge while staying on the creature, then attack him separately.

It's slow, but it can also charge at insanely high speed once every few rounds. Also, it's got a thick armored carapace that can't be pierced easily.

What I mean to say is that NPCs can be spaced and protected in a such a way as to be beyond the frightful presence of the Terrasque, and force the terrasque to move and use an entire turn to attack each individual NPC, while each NPC does either 1d8 or 1d10 from Longbow or Crossbow damage. Possibly the same with the Magician himself, although he can cast spells that make him much more dangerous to the NPCs and better able to protect himself

Aww, did that epic speech I wrote after defeating Soros the first time not count? What can I do?

Also, REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! Tarrasques are immune to piercing damage. I'll find a way around that - enchanted projectiles? Explosive projectiles? GM fiat for mixed Nuts? Something.

Besides that, Tarrasques have such an insane Armor Class that it would take a modifier of I think +6 in order for even a 20 to land, although a 20 automatically lands. I think if we can say that the trained crusaders, for instance, started out with level 1 fighter status and ten dexterity points (they should receive these stats by virtue of nothing else than being human) then leveled up to 2 from the fight with the demons, could perhaps be said to have gained enough experience from intense training over three weeks (It'll be 4 by then at least, perhaps more) to have leveled up a class 3 fighter, AND they have Archery as their fighting style, then they should have a +8 modifier, meaning they beat the Tarrasque's Armour class if an 17 or higher is rolled. So if we have 40 level three fighters who are within range, not dead, and not frightened (that may be optimistic) we can expect on average 8 to hit per turn with 1d8 damage, so something like 32 damage per turn on average. I don't know how many pirates there are or their levels, but they must have higher levels

>>13221
