Quick Rundown:
This(these) thread(s) started as an experimental attempt to determine whether a D&D type game could be possible over an anonymous imageboard. The results have exceeded my wildest expectations. During the week, these threads consist of game meta discussion, shitposting, bants, and more shitposting. On the weekend its on, and its something far more intense than standard pen and paper; I'm still trying to figure out all the aspects and elements.
New players are welcome at any time, and with that let me tie up the previous questions.

Nevermind that, I was trying to help you get the unicorn right away, but its gone now.

First off, you're BOTH wrong. Its an Archmage, but no one outside the Archmage knows that so spoilers.

Just because a race or species is listed as 'Outsider' doesn't mean they cannot migrate to other planes/realms.

Additionally, these factions (there are many, above/beyond the ants) have been written into the story, have been there the whole time. The ants were part of all previous 'boots' of the story, and have had successful and beneficial relations with several iterations of the active party.
The travel ban on outsiders limits those who's home is/remains any of the outer planes from entering willfully OR being summoned from interally.
Meaning, it is impossible to summon foreign ants from their home plane, but one can readily interact with ants 'from' this plane.

The scroll will come up in the future, its relevance has to do with a particular location which will be obvious after inspection. As for the potato, I'm sure he will never be heard from again. Ever.
And with that, the Game continues.

I was being deliberately ambiguous. Giving you her quiver was a very calculated decision which was pushed earlier in the fight than I had intended because Tracy was already unarmed. It was intended to be a replacement knife cozy, and the side pocket is a bag of holding the size of a broom closet. You had mentioned the efficient quiver or whatever it is (Elohna or w/e) and that's essentially what Thez' is, except more suited to brutal murder.
It was known through limited empathic 'dialogue' between Troll and the slaves that they WERE slaves, so her response is entirely accurate. The removal of the slaves was a given as soon as Torcuil summoned her. What isn't known is the state that an angry troll would leave the below-deck of a slave ship in, but it was intended to cause massive butt devastation.

I know this is the kind of thing that really would be settled in gameplay, but did all of the Pirates who were conscious leave the ship and go to Trumpaladin?
Also, since the trip from the building to the ship has got to be at least one quarter mile, maybe more, do I get several free actions?

No. Just no. That should not be your first thought

GM, what to the additive modifiers on a Monster's skill list entail? As in, when using a monster's natural skill that says "Concentration +25", does that really entail a +25 addition to the roll for the Concentration check ( i assume it doesn't, but what does it do?)?
Also, after counting her skulls, Tracy moves over to the library and looks at the atlases on local geography, in an attempt to garner information on the Emperor's city. (it's not actually him I have to kill before i can get the assassin class,
is it? He seems like the final boss, almost.)

There's a page full of modifiers. It's something like a 10 or 11 breaks even, les is negative, and higher is a few points added
I think Tracy would start where she left off, which is in Trumpaladin's arms as he walks with the Pirates towards the docks. But noted for when there is time later
I knew you were full of shit when you said you were not trying to take him for your assassin class

Weren't they all at the tower?
I didn't believe it, but I felt it was implied. I was just wondering who the "Emperor" in question was for the quest.

It's weeaboo, but fun fact: I have never actually watched anime. But cletic could be good to use
And he's also a slaver, keeps dropping hints about wanting to steal Trump's wife, and who know what else
Besides, pirates don't have a reputation for being honest.
His first mate could be a completely different story though.

They were all outside of an apartment which would have been inside of a newly constructed tower building in Port Barry, presumably located next to the main plaza. It's not going to be a full 58 story building because there is no steel and I'm not sure if I can get away with mule-powered elevators, but it's still much taller than any building previously existing in Port Barry. Trump left to go with the Pirates to their ship after he made the deal, so he could help execute the transaction and talk them into converting to Football/whatever other arrangements are necessary to get them into being reliable allies. He picks up Tracy and carries her so he can be she isn't off doing something that would mess everything up *cough* Tourcil cough *cough*, so he could have an ally should the Pirates try to fight him, and frankly because poor Tracy being left alone was just kind of a sad sight. So they should be walking now just outside the apartment building.
Actually you're right, it's an entirely different guy that Thez mentioned in some letter. Just if you go kill this guy, be sure to tell your Flashy so he can send in an army to complete the job of spreading freedom and democracy

>slaver
Eh, no one is perfect. But we can talk him into different industries. You know, if given a chance to talk out these problems.
>wants to steal Trump's wife
Trump doesn't have a wife in this dimension, and he stopped doing legal marriages after getting a criminal conviction for bigamy in his past life. But I'm sure that if he did, she'd be so desirable everyone would want to steal her. But wife stealing from a professional and notorious waifu thief is not so easy.
>pirates are not so honest
It was established that he and the Pirates could be trusted so long as it was in their best interest to do something. They want glory and good reputation, they love and carry about Port Barry, they like wenches, they don't want to die and know we can kill them, they want the arch-Mage dead, they took interest in the Broncos, and they stand to benefit from the economy being successful. So really, there's an extremely high amount of overlap between their interests and the group's, besides the fact that they can be bribed and threatened. Their behavior is frankly more predictable than certian party members, and in a way more trust worthy.
>first mate
He might be better. He might be a total dick. What we do know is that Korak was willing to offer his ship as support in attacking the arch-mage, and was willing to provide a large amount of information about our enemies. He was also willing to back down after having his ship robbed and his men murdered. But thank you for mentioning the first mate, I'll think about recruiting him.

>concentration +25
That's precisely what it means. This is why it is necessary that players dole out their skill points, so I can give them more than a 10 in stealth, for example. A saving throw or skill check is influenced by the relevant attribute (ex: dex for tumbling or the following), the character's skill rank (20 or w/e) and other miscellaneous modifiers from items, spells, or w/e. A 15'th level rogue can only have a max rank of 15 toward an attempt to set a trap. With a decent dex he would probably get a +2. This means that on a 20 die-roll he could make a DC 17 trap. That means that another rogue needs a 17 or better on their spot check, and roll a DC 17 on their disarm check, also with modifiers applied.
I've been almost entirely nerfing the skills system so far.

Think about this. Do you want this freedom mission to go down more like after killing Ghadaffi in Libya and no troops were sent in, or like Iraq where there was a proper occupation alongside killing the dictator? Except of course minus the pulling out part. Because as Tracy should know, Trumpaladin does not pull out.

I was hoping to allocate my characters skill points and levels when I finally got the class I wanted... I guess I could (with some help) if it'll make the game smoother though.
>tfw your super-saiyan form is still boss as fuck though
Would she have time to craft some potions at this point? I was looking for Potion of Rage.

>>13400
No potions. You can hold off applying some skill points, but you use stealth alot. Without applying points toward it, rogues like Korak can see you without rolling just by skill points.

Act like you're assuming my character has Good intentions/alignment. I don't even know who the target is, so the rough draft intention is "Kill this guy because he's a faggot and make a scene out of it people hate him, but mostly just because I want to and need to release all of this pent-up edge before I explode, and I kind of want to try the stunt that Thez suggested."
Please to asking me to clarify character motives. It's spoiling the fun.

Stealth is especially important to classify because its 2 checks in one; first one has to initially hide, then they have to move silently to maintain stealth. When moving they are beaten by listen checks, and when stationary they are beaten only by search checks.

I'll say this much. If I suggest a course of action, consider it an intuitive thought that if gone along with might trigger a cinematic progress that will most probably result in a peaceful and beneficial exchange. I won't tell players anything more that "perhaps if", or "You should consider" or something along those lines.
>>13408
I would think a chest-plate would be less encumbering. Also to the earlier bone/skull question, it occurs to me that such materials would totally fit with the nightmare motif, as well as Tracy's character in general. Yeah, you can have an armor thing. You'll need it.

Oh I was talking to "Mrs. Sentry," who wanted to start a party in some foreign land without inviting her Flashy. He said something about "stop asking for motives," and I was trying to explain "I don't care why you are killing this guy, just please give me a heads up so I can try to influence the new management"

Gotcha. I threw in the bit about courses of action just cuz I was reminded. Trump and Tracy are the ones most involved in advancing the story, so that was an fyi.

You can ask Lenos or your Flashy if you want to be in beautiful Amber clad. Notice how the poner on the right is well protected against most attacks, but gives off the look that she's fit to in the presence of royalty, while also retaining her natural cuteness and sexuality

What would be the wisest distribution for those 6 stat points we have to allocate? I was thinking mostly dexterity, but idk... I was figuring she'd be in her monstrous form in situations during which she needed the epic strength boost, but I'm not sure exactly what each stat is useful for.
