Mixed Nuts - 'THAT' Pen and Paper RPG Thread

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.

Ah.
Actually, can I spread those points between Wis, Int, and Dex then? I didn't think I would have so many skill points available when I put that all into Dex.

Skill points are different from ability points. Also, your character has a lady bug charm that you never use. What do you want to trade for it?

GM, what are Trumpaladin's ability points?

Forgot about that.

I figured she'd need the Dex for stealth.
>What do you want to trade for it?
Moar evil magic.

I get it though. She's a beast at this point, even when not transformed.

Any chance you'd be willing to make a deal on the last bug charm?

>she's a beast at this point
Take another look at the number of rogue skills. You'll see pretty quickly why that class needs to have four times the number of skill points as the paladin class. There are far more things you need to spend it on

No, Trump would need a separate skill for that (exotic). IDK about Int, above is whats written down. I'll look back when I have time.

Its a reasonable strategy. Note that Tracy's perception of the material plane is limited to immediate surroundings (5-10') when in the ethereal.

For skill ranks, does the ability score modifier give free ranks, or free points on a skill check?

Also, how do I gain the Negotiator feat?

They ability modifier is added to the skill and other modifiers on a skill check.

Choose it. Everyone has 6 feats plus whatever bonus feats for race or class.

If a new ability point is applied to int, raising it to 14, would the int modifier retroactively apply to skill points gained (since it would raise the modifier from +1 to +2) or only prospectively?

That only applies for spaces that are filled with solid material.
Anyway, I've been playing true to the Element of Unoriginality: all of my options I've considered have been rip-offs of something I've seen on 4chan.

You would need a light armor proficiency for your current setup (technically medium also to add the breast plate, but its not a full breast plate yet). You would want two-weapon fighting to go double-knives,....

18 in class skills and 9 in cross-class skills. Cross-class skills take 2 points, and for minotaur I used Hal-orc stats, which were already applied

Yes. Armor proficiency pertains to a character's ability to move in armor, as well as utilize it properly in combat (deflection, protecting vitals, etc.). Its not like weapon proficiency where you get a negative to attack.

Yeah, I thoughyt of those, but I also considered that the boss fights would be in Nightmare form (only 1 weapon), so for those only I was considering something like:
>great cleave
>Improved bull rush
>rapid metabolism
>Awesome blow
>Two-weapon fighting
Most wouldn't be accessible unless transformed, but would work well when facing a damned army. I was figuring Silent killing in pony form; and charging beast in monstrous form, for dire/extreme. situations.
