>>177677Silver nods again. "Of course. Adventuring is not just, 'oh, I will take boat to location'. It takes preparation, research, surprising amount of reading and investigating. After all, you need to know what location you are going to is like and where what you are searching for is likely located, or at least know where you can find out. And having both of our sets of eyes will help in finding out what we need to know."
>>177680Both ears go firm for a moment. “Yes… that makes sense. We don’t have much to go on for the moment. I can try to do some research when I get some free time.” She says
>>177679Roll Diplomacy>>177678gasp “How did you know?!?!”
>>177681Silver smiles at this. "I hope I will get to join you when you do."
He carries on nonchalantly
"My guardian for example had an inSAtiable taste for cheese, and I was named after the cheese he asserted was "the best",... can there really said to be "a" best? It all depends on what it's paired with".
>>177684In slow motion, the pony's eyes go wide, his ears go down, then his eyes close, and
"Ahhh! You ate a pony!"
And he turns and starts to run, presumably towards the door
>>177683She simply smiles, lowering her head, and then looking down towards her tail.
>>177682This is actually not the airfield"No?" She answers, raising an eyebrow
>>177685"Wine, perhaps?"
This bap,... his manner is well presented and defined and he's almost supercilious in his demeanor but,... he has no rizz
>>177687"W-wait! I didn't! I promise!"
Kira goes to try to block the door, attempting to prevent the pony from escaping.
>>177687"Heh. Has anyone ever told you how cute you are?"
>>177689Hmmm... kind of want a roll for this. Dex modifier
>>177690Looking up, and then back down
"A pony may have said it. Usually it seemed just a little insincere. Like they were trying to sleep with me, or something."
>>177691"Yes..." She says, and walks away
>>177692"I can not say anything as to their intentions, but I must say, it is very true."
>>177694Kira does
mot beat him to the door. He does at least need a moment to stop and open the door, however.
>>177695Can she grab onto him physically to stop him?
>>177696Can she? Yes. Roll unarmed attack, and presumably grapple. Time to test her ability to lunge.
The bat calmly pours himself some finished tea and muses to himself. Sigh. It is always important to appreciate the finer moments in life."
>>177697First, to see if she can even touch the pony.
[1d20+8 = (15+8) = 23] >>177700Okay, that seems good. Now, to pull the stallion into her coils and away from the door.
[1d20+12 = (20+12) = 32] >>177701So, presumably this would beat whatever attempt he might make to try to escape from her. Kira wraps her tail around the stallion, and pulls him away from the door. She coils around in an empty part of the room, with the stallion wrapped up at the center of her coils.
>>177700>>177701AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!Kira grabs onto the screaming colt with her hooves as he’s trying to open the door, and then manages to pull him back and coil around him, perhaps even covering his mouth if she so chooses.
>>177702“AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!”
>>177703Yeah, screaming at the top of his lungs is likely to invite trouble. Kira stuffs a hoof into his mouth to quiet him.
"Please, just listen! I'm
not a pony eater! I haven't eaten any pony! Please calm down!"
are blood-chokes a thing?
>>177706Just gonna offer, Ive seen it done where a blood choke is:
- A declared thing (kind of like declaring lethal or nonlethal damage)
- an unbroken, unobstructed 2-3 round pin (depending on grapelling checks)
>>177707Does it hurt the creature who is being grappled?
>>177706>>177707I've been making unarmed combat and grapplemancer build in 3.5e for years (making a new one right now), and I've never heard of what you're referring to. You must have the name wrong, because I can't find it in any of my archives.
There's a somewhat similar feat in a PF1e supplement that allows you to coup-de-grace pinned opponents.
>>177709Please, this is group-derived homebrew
>>177708No, though it's not a stretch to say it's possible with a few tweaks, if thats what youre going for
Homebrew wherein this is a common tactic among certain fighting specialists, meaning dont cry if the npc chokes you out
>>177711>this is group-derived homebrewOh really? I have a lot of homebrew spells that I would like to add to the Dread Necromancer list, if anypony is interested. I had some homebrew items too.
>>177712That sounds like a tree of 3-4 feats.
Constrict abilities are worth the investiture though. I've been looking into what to do with them without feats because Bone Lurkers are one of my favorite creations from Animate Dead.
I realize that if you create 12 of them you could form a flying mob that deals auto damage but also has improved grapple, expert grappler, and trample, with a near-unsaveable paralysis attack which auto-hits, with damage reduction making it nearly impervious to bullets. 4d6 mob damage + trample + 2d6 constrict + paralysis is a deadly combo.
It takes 36 HD of the control pool, which means that Posey could control two entire mobs by the time she learns animate dead, or four mobs with Desecrate.
>>177705Please understand that this location, like basically every single shop encountered anywhere else in Baltimare is located on the first floor of a three story building, with the buildings being very close together on the same block, the upper two floors being used for apartments or less often, expanded retail space, and there being immediately adjacent shops and busy sidewalks and streets. Maybe these brick-built structures have sound dampening as an accident biproduct of their construction, but for damn sure not a cent was spent on sound proofing.
As Kira wraps her coils around him, the colt can feel the presence of a quadrupedal inside of Kira, devoured by her, that is as big as he is an runs a full one fifth to one fourth of Kira's body length. To be sure, he could see it before, but now he can physically feel it press against his body, being forcibly twisted and contorted with the movement of Kira's incredibly strong muscles.
The colt is still terrified and tries to scream.
>>177706A constrictor snake may kill its prey by obstructing the movement of blood in the target's body, if asphyxiation takes too long.
>>177715If her hoof isn't enough to muffle the sound of his screaming, she moves the end of her tail around to stuff it in his mouth instead. Regardless, she holds a hoof up and lets out a "shhhhhhhhhhhhh". Her ears fold.
"It's a goat, not a pony. I bought it from a farm just outside town. Please, I would never eat a pony. Can we just...start over? Please?"
>>177715If you dont mind the discussion continuing, of course a boa does a blood AND breath choke, but I'm talking about jiu jitsu shit.
>>177714And to this end, improved grappeling is all thats required for this part of the technique, though a (negotiable) 1-3 round duration should be necessary. We went with a system where for every difference of 5 in the grappel check reduced the number of rounds to pull the choke
>>177717Now imagine being able to do it to several hundred soldiers at the same time with a gargantuan flying swarm of rattling bones.
Character goals
>>177718Now imagine killing the one doing and controlling the myriad hundreds, with but a dagger
(Not my aim/interest, just playing the game of pretend)
>>177719I got hit points and DR. Bring it. I'm bored.
>>177716The stallion whimpers and looks up towards Kira. He stops screaming. What he does not do, or at least, has not done yet, is nod.
>>177721Calm yourself! We can meet in game if we're to banter so agressively!
>>177722Kira stops attempting to gag him, but she still keeps a hold of him until he stops panicking. She smiles at him.
"I'm Kira. I'm new here. I just moved into an apartment just down the road with my friend Neela, a deer. I'm hoping to make her happy by bringing her some wine."
>>177725Have you ever known me to not foreshadow?
>>177726All of your posts in this thread are foreshadowing, forever.
>>177727Well hurry the fuck up and get to the customs office ffs
>>177725scrunchTechnically Posey and Silver could probably move ahead
>>177724Kira can feel him shaking. He does not yell, but for the first time, he addresses Kira
"W-what
are you?"
