The only reliable way I can think of to reliably turn Dark Star into a Death Knight require Posey to be lvl 8, so you might have to wait a while.
We could try at lvl 6, but it would probably kill us both if it fails.

When a character is 1st level, a 4hp slash is " a deep cut along the forearm. Not immediately life threatening, but dont take too many"
When a character is 12th level, and their fighting prowess has increased, that 4 hp slash is "A grazing strike, deflected mostly, leaving only a slight trace of blood".
The "character" doesnt beclme "more durable" by way of increased HP, the context for damage that is sufficient to incapacitate has increased. Descriptively, theyre more seasoned to combat and more able to turn serious blows into opportunistic dodges, evasions, deflections, etc.

Also, a 6hp character that loses 3hp from a single crossbow bolt is as scared for their life as the 200hp paladin who just lost 100hp to a failed dex save
Y'all dont even know about morale checks, and mental fortitude checks to avoid panic
The DMG has like three pages of text describing the nuances of how to fluff HP

>When a character is 1st level, a 4hp slash is " a deep cut along the forearm. Not immediately life threatening
According to the DMG, 99.99% of people are lvl 1 commoners with an average of 2 HP: being attacked with any kind of weapon by a proficient user is enough to put them in the dying condition, if not outright kill them.
Even lvl 1 adventurers are inherently superhuman, not just in their physicality, but in their ability to avoid damage, as well as their narrative heroic luck to not be killed by scrubs and continue their story. The most powerful swordsman irl could still be killed by a rock thrown by a child, but not in d&d because he's the protagonist/antagonist and that's now how his story is supposed to end.
HP isn't just how good you are at fighting or how much damage you can take: it's fate. It's a narrative mechanic that defines you as a hero.
Earlier versions of d&d described Achilles as a high lvl fighter. Achilles was described as being both the best at fighting and supernaturally invulnerable, but he still died from an arrow to the heel when his fate (HP) finally ran out.
Same applies in d20 Modern, except d20 modern has more gritty realism because the lower massive damage thresholds make it so that being shot once can still kill you (because being able to shrug off a crit from a bullet with no consequences is immersion breaking in a story based on contemporary fiction). Even then, it enforced the heroic luck by using action points by default, so that players can spend their limited points per level to overcome those massive damage rolls.

This is all true, but it depends on the roleplaying of individual players. It's much easier to default to describing physical wounds from getting hit, and this what both the GM Pone and players have been doing from the start. The most egregious examples were Silver's combat dream sequences where he got shot a ridiculous amount of times but used medkits almost like a video game to keep himself alive. It strained suspension of disbelief.
Depending on roleplay is fine, but incorporating a better mechanical system is ideal because it means players don't have to way "evasion HP vs. physical HP" as much. I'm not sure how to do that. Constitution as a score boosts HP period, even though logically it would just help physical HP but dexterity would help evasion HP instead. In terms of game balance you don't want that, because dexterity is already a powerful stat and constitution needs to be important.

>it depends on the roleplaying of individual players
Yeah. You might notice that I prefer to fluff it as Posey taking direct hits, because playing an unkillable zombie/vampire is part of my fantasy for this character.
It's also part of Posey's biblical revelation theme
>one of the heads of the beast seemed to have had a fatal wound, but the fatal wound had been healed. The whole world was filled with wonder and followed the beast
For Posey, I specifically prefer the aesthetic of taking fatal wounds and miraculously not dying. I also fluff damage reduction as wounds that heal instantly
>Wounds heal immediately, or the weapon bounces off harmlessly (in either case, the opponent knows the attack was ineffective)
It's specifically for Posey's undead antichrist theme though. With other characters I prefer to fluff it as evasion.

You aren't playing any other characters in this campaign yet, and mine haven't taken any lethal damage. I'm describing how other characters have lost HP in combat so far, whether that be Silver Sword, Iron Hooves, or any of GM Pone's countless NPCs. Might this change now that there is talk about it? I don't know. I want it to change but it's on the others.

>Might this change now that there is talk about it?
The easiest way to change that would be to adopt d20 modern system shock, but it would also change the roleplay dynamic from fantasy combat to gritty realism, so it should only be done with Action Points.
It might calm GM's worries about leveling up though.

Let's say we do this and add action points. How would you go about mixing it into the homebrew? Would it allow characters to level up to 8 without making threats like gangsters inconsequential? That's the main concern GM has and it's a major problem with 3.5e. He started this campaign as 3.5e just for reasons of familiarity. It's now becoming increasingly necessary to come up with something new so don't be afraid of hare-brained ideas.

One way to balance a restricted-xp game while allowing character advancement is through context-acquired feats, boons, and abilities. In doing so, a player is allowed to grow and expand a character's capabilities, while limiting the degree of increasing scale to the game.

Is anyone going to be offended if I give monk levels fighter Base Attack Bonus? I don't feel like I should be looking at Monk stats, and seriously wondering if fighter is better at unarmed combat.
In quick retrospect, I would argue against it, on principle that the Monk lack of increased BAB is complemented by their unarmed damage (which could do for a scaling up, imo)
>>183140
>How would you go about mixing it into the homebrew?
I'm not really sure what the homebrew is, so idk.
>Would it allow characters to level up to 8 without making threats like gangsters inconsequential?
Bullets fo the same amount of damage no matter who fires them (unless they have specialist damage boosters, like fighters, rogues, scouts, etc). Guns should still be lethal.
It really depends what the threats are supposed to be, and in what tactical context they're presented.
>That's the main concern GM has and it's a major problem with 3.5e.
Well, the 3.5e DMG says to refer to d20 modern for issues concerning modern mileau, so it might be a good place to start.
I think the system shock discrepancy is the main difference between fantasy combat and contemporary realism.

There's also a martial artist prestige class in d20 Modern:
http://dmreference.com/MRD/Characters/Advanced_Classes/Martial_Artist.htm
It has full BAB
Note that d20 modern has quite a few powerful unarmed combat feats, that become exceptionally powerful if combined with 3.5e feats and features.
I wouldn't object to you buffing Monks, but imo the solution isn't to try to patch up the Monk, but to replace it with Unarmed Swordsage.
Swordsages are good, despite having Monk BAB. They're favorwise very similar to Monk, except they have good features.
Monk/Swordsage Multiclass is great, especially if you PrC into Shadow Sun Ninja.
>>183148
Yes, this is the logic behind it.
If you take Improved Natural Attack and Superior Unarmed Strike, your punches will do more damage than howitzers at mid level. And that's just two feats; there are many more

The sample "Martial Artist" in the DMGII is either a Multiclass Fighter/Monk, or a Multiclass Rogue/Monk.
I've played a lot of Monks, usually as an entry to a better PrC. The Monk class itself is kind of bad, but it has so many swappable features that you can use it to do any kind of non-casting build you want. I moved my Sidewinder Chaos Monk Ur Priest Sacred Fist.
I once ran a campaign with a Monk who specialized into Shadow Sun Ninja: she was the most powerful character in the game, more powerful than the Wizard, Cleric or Sorcerer. Admittedly, it was because I gave her overleveled equipment, but it was mostly because of her good build that maximized unarmed damage (superior unarmed strike, improved natural attack from fanged ring, monks belt, heavy scorpion kama sword which in hindsight made her way too powerful), while adding sneak attacks (Assassin Stance + Craven) and tactical teleports (Sun School + Shadow Blink + Flurry Of Blows).
She was like

The 5e Monk Shadow style (3rd level focus) allows you to do similar at 6th level, bamfing 60'/round as a bonus action into/from shadow, auto-critting your first strike. Lots of fun ^_^

I would strongly recommend it. Swordsage is good, and it multiclasses well with any other martial class.
Mystic Ranger 10 / Swordsage 10 is great for melee
Mystic Ranger 10 / Scout 10 with Swift Hunter might be better for ranged attacks though.
I mention Mystic Ranger, because none of you have Animal Companions, and you could get a lot better ranged damage boosters from Ranger spells, like Hunter's Eye or Hunter's Mercy.

I while back I made this unfinished sheet when I considered what Brie might look like if he were a Sidewinder Chaos Monk / Swordsage SS Ninja.

I'd squeeze in a Ninja level too, if Ascetic Stalker works with Shadow Sun Ninja (advances Monk Abilities), and to get back the trapfinding ability alongside more benefit out of the bloodline bonus. Maybe Swordsage 2, Sidewinder Monk 3, Ninja 1, Shadow Sun Ninja 1, if the character were lvl 7. You always want Swordsage 2 for stances though, and this build would definitely want Assassin Stance.
I gave up after one hour of work, because I remembered it's none of my darn business making sheets for characters that aren't mine.
Food for thought though.

It uses a ponyfinder feat to attack with Int.
Also uses Faerie Mysteries Initiate, on the basis that a Unicorn can count as an elf.
Wasn't sure how to distribute stats, it's based on the original 43 points distribution. Faerie Mysteries Initiate + Keen Intellect + Advanced Horn Magic gives the option to dump Con, Wis and Str, although idk because I wanted enough to qualify for feats and good Concentration checks.
If craft points were available, I'd swap Silver Tongue with Craft Magical Arms & Armor.

Paladins get a mount but mounts don't make sense in MLP's setting. I don't have enough ranger levels for animal companion, but I don't particularly want one either.

There are some variant rules for paladins that make them better suited to settings where a mount doesn't make sense. I know one's called sword of celestia which I thought was funny.

If I may weigh in on the system conversation, I know 3.5e isn't perfect for the setting GM pone is trying to establish, but I'm not sure I'd be a super big fan for Modern's idea of action points. I don't find Silver' resiliency to bullets particularly immersion breaking, he's just a really sturdy pony. Obviously no one in the show got shot, but characters in the show have survived hits that would kill or at least greviously injure a regular person.

This is usually why I as a GM ask players to describe what they want to play archetypically before recommending a build and class.
Still, "Ranger" can still be used to describe all three of those archetypes.
Dark Star could be an Urban Ranger variant who tracks with Gather Information. Plus his most defining feature is his racism, so favored enemy. Could Multiclass Scout with Swift Hunter to be a bit more rogue-like while also synergizing ranger abilities.
The Ranger is also archetypically very similar to the Paladin. In earlier versions of D&D, it was virtually identical in concept: a high-rolled warrior with mystic powers because the gods love them, that had high stat requirements and required good alignment.
For Kira, Ranger is actually very good for monster builds, particularly with some of the more avant garde ACFs.

This is usually why I as a GM ask players to describe what they want to play archetypically before recommending a build and class.

So, one of the interesting facts about lamias that Posey would have liked to learn about if she asked Kira about her people is that they have the belief that by eating a creature whole, all or at least part of that creature's soul/lifeforce remains with the lamia, granting them a portion of the creature's power. Lamia hunters also have to perform a rite of passage when growing up where they have to track, hunt, and subdue a creature on the plains on their own with no tools or help, and bring them back to the tribe for a ritual which concludes with the hunter eating their first prey whole and getting a necklace carved in the likeness of the creature as proof of their having proved it. Do you think a combination of those could be used for an ACF, or maybe some kind of special summon in place of the normal animal companion?

Probably better represented as a combination of racial abilities and feats.
If you want the most of playing a monster, you should consider devoting part of your class levels to racial hit dice and play a refluffed variant of Constrictor Naga, Anthropomorphic animal, or tauric creature.
You can trade the companion for a lot of stuff, several of which are appropriate for what you're trying to do.
If you play a variant of Constructor Naga or Anthropomorphic Legendary Snake with the Enlarged Form mutation, you could count as Huge sized and qualify for Snatch, Snatch-And-Swallow, and Gape Of The Serpent.
Whatever Kira is qualifies as a scaled one, so she benefits from any of the snake monster feats printed in Serpent Kingdoms.

Not exactly what I was imagining for Kira, but the input is appreciated! I don't imagine her ability to vore creatures would have a whole lot of use on the battlefield, myself. It would probably take multiple full round actions to swallow a creature whole, maybe longer if they're not helpless or otherwise incapacitated, giving their friends a good chance to come to their rescue.

If DnD was realistic then bows would be a strength-dependent weapon, since historically the power of a bow was limited by the user's draw strength. Most swords would switch to dexterity since technique is more important than raw power, but I digress.
That checklist has "explicit" romance separate from sex and I don't know what it means, maybe kissing? It's concerning to think that some tabletop player out there is fine with full penetration but not with romance.

The way I give archers something to geek over is to put several different kinds of rare magic arrows in the encounter loot, so they can meticulously track when and where they use their unique special ammo. In my experience archer players just love that stuff.

GM Pone, would it be alright for you if I retcon Cavaliere's three ranger levels for levels in "Champion of the Wild"? The only difference it makes is that he loses all spellcasting but gains a bonus feat if/when he takes a fourth level in Champion of the Wild. I do not intend for him to be a spellcaster anyway and I would like the bonus feat.
As for when he levels up to level 6, I'm torn on taking monk, swordsage or something else. If it's anything other than monk then I would have to pick that feat which lets you keep monk abilities.
We were talking about buffing monk but have a look at Fighting Styles:
https://srd.dndtools.org/srd/classes/baseCore/monk.html#fighting-styles
If you want to include this then I would give Cavaliere Wushu style.

Forgot to mention if I do pick Wushu style I would be giving up stunning fist and combat reflexes for improved initiative and power attack, which I consider worth it. I'd also get +2 to tumble. To qualify I just need two more ranks in sense motive and one more in bluff, so that would have to wait until I level up.

Rosey Ring has no ranks in dungeoneering, but she has rudimentary familiarity with aberrations because she's been to the edge of the far realm as part of the training that permanently scarred her mind and gave her Cerebrosis. She knows enough about aberrations to know that their minds are profoundly alien, and when they say things like "friendship" they're not actually being friendly, and instead want to distort, dominate, assimilate, mutate or consume you. Part of their perverse ideals of "friendship" may or may not have rubbed off on her... but she still doesn't consider uncontrolled beachgoers to be welcome in her realm.

For Cavaliere I think I have to take weapon finesse for unarmed on level 6. I should have realized sooner that unarmed attack rolls by default use strength as the modifier. Weapon finesse would let me use dexterity instead and gain +3 to attack rolls immediately. However this means I would have to take another level in monk, not swordsage or anything else.
>>183834
Even if I was ignorant of all possibilities when making Cavaliere, I believe it would be unfair to retcon and redo his entire build to gain a mechanical advantage. Therefore I have to stick by two levels in monk, and try to keep their advantages while growing stronger. If I pick swordsage or a good prestige class, I would have to take that feat (I think it's homebrew) to keep monk functionality. Since half of my character's offensive power is in unarmed, a single level in that class would have to not only beat out another level of monk but also +3 roll modifier to unarmed. Weapon finesse for unarmed is equivalent to two other SRD feats (weapon focus + weapon specialization for a +3 bonus). It's not game-breakingly powerful but, with wushu style, it would make unarmed viable for nonlethal takedowns of dangerous opponents.
I realize the irony of saying all this right after Cavaliere shot a pony dead between the eyes

No, it really wouldn't be unfair. GM already said he was fine with it for Brie. You are new at the game, and you didn't necessarily know what you were making when you first made your sheet, so correcting mistakes is fine.
It's called retraining/rebuilding. It's in the DMGII

Yes but I want him to become a kung-fu student and that's a fighting style for monks which is also mechanically viable. GM Pone is also partial to buffing monks in some capacity and I hold a bias towards the core classes.
Could you summarize what I would gain instead if I rebuilt with swordsage in mind? I do believe you have a good idea of what my character is about.

>Could you summarize what I would gain instead if I rebuilt with swordsage in mind?
For starters, you would get unarmed damage, like a monk.
You would get weapon focus with a number of weapons.
You would get six sublime way maneuvers, and a martial stance. These maneuvers are special martial arts moves and are very potent in combat. I think you would have access to maneuvers of at least 2nd level.
You would get a bonus to initiative.
Depending on what members you take, I think you may have a much better time than a level in Monk.

I read about maneuvers and they are looking like attractive options.
With wushu fighting style I get a bonus to initiative and the ability to power attack.
Swordsage is more versatile but considering I am focusing on unarmed attacks the two options look roughly equal. Thank you for informing me but I will stick to this path.

>power attack
You don't want power attack it you're doing unarmed combat.
Power attack is for two handed weapons.
A lot of maneuvers do plenty of damage, and many of them assist with unarmed attacks.
Also note you can trade the swordsage's light armor for Monk style unarmed damage.

You can use power attack with one-handed weapons. Rather than added damage being multiplied by two, it is simply added. Considering unarmed attacks are weak damage-wise it looks useful. Losing stunning fist is sad but a once-per-day special attack has limited utility when in-game days last months for the players.
It is tempting, and I might just make an alternative character sheet in order to compare stats and abilities.

Since we're in a modern setting, with modern medicine, we should be using the d20 modern Treat Injury skill:
https://d20modern.fandom.com/wiki/Treat_Injury
Unlike the worthless 3.5e heal skill, it actually does something substantial, like the ability to heal 1d4 HP 1/day per character.

The 3.5e heal skill doesn't really do anything. The treat wound skill is the only way to heal damage in most d20 modern games, but d20 modern games have a different dynamic as they're less combat focused altogether.

What is the balance regarding enchanted weapons & ammunition and EaW's own magical weapons? Should enchanting an ordinary weapon be more powerful because of the expense needed for a custom weapon (compared to magical weapons being mass-produced), or should magical weapons be more powerful because they are specialized to use magical crystals as ammunition? We seem to agree that enchanted ammunition is also good to include because it's single-use, but how does it fit on the totem pole?
My headcanon is mundane weapon < enchanted weapon with mundane ammo/mundane weapon with enchanted ammo < enchanted weapon with enchanted ammo < magical weapon
personally I think enchanted weapons are too cheap to produce in EaW, since if you've got crystals it's a no-brainer to give them to entire divisions
Also I haven't been able to find a single piece of art featuring a magical weapon
>>184106
I agree. There are a number of things that should be brought in from D20 Modern and Treat Injury is a no-brainer.

In d20 Arcana, enchanting a weapon of any kind is the same cost.
Obviously, a magic gun is stronger than a magical crossbow, but altering the item economy of 3.5e could lead to unforseen consequences.
>since if you've got crystals it's a no-brainer to give them to entire divisions
These sound like Least Augmentation Crystals, the kind that only requires masterwork or greater weapons to buff. If they count as Least Augmentation crystals, then you could plausibly give them to an army, although it would still be expensive. A least crystal only costs 300 gp, iirc.
https://holiviantales.wordpress.com/game-mechanics/magic/magical-devices/magical-weapons/weapon-augmentation-crystals/
>should magical weapons be more powerful because they are specialized to use magical crystals
A lesser crystal can only be attached to a +1 weapon.
A greater crystal can only be attached to a +3 weapon.
Alternatively, the crystals could be consumables, like variant potions (potions aren't necessarily liquid). If a crystal counts as a consumable potion of magic weapon, it could be affordable.
>We seem to agree that enchanted ammunition is also good to include because it's single-use, but how does it fit on the totem pole?
Enchanted ammunition is just fun, imo. It makes enemies more dangerous without increasing their treasure too much, and it gives ranged characters cool loot without adding too much treasure to an encounter.
The Magic Item Compendium has a lot of text concerning how to work with the magic in any particular game. D20 Arcana also has resources.
Also, this MIC loot roller is good:
https://paulmurraycbr.github.io/MICGenerator.html
I like how it gives the option to reroll individual parts of the roll.

>least augmentation crystals
Most EaW magical weapons look like they would use a crystal of energy assault of some variety (probably fire), unless if you want to create a new version that uses raw arcane power for non-elemental damage. Anti-tank weapons would use the crystal of demolition.
Assuming the weapon is made to be masterwork and fitted with a crystal, that's only +1 to attack rolls and +1 to damage rolls. That doesn't line up with how powerful they are in EaW. There haven't been many enemies with said magic weapons either, so GM Pone probably wants them to be stronger to be dangerous against a higher-level party.
>>184141
Yes.
Dark Star enchanted his two masterwork revolvers. If you enchant a masterwork revolver and then use enchanted ammunition, it will be stronger than the Arcana-style magic weapon. Unless, if we swap the Arcana rules to apply to enchanted projectile weapons and come up with something new for EaW's magical weapons.

>Assuming the weapon is made to be masterwork and fitted with a crystal, that's only +1 to attack rolls and +1 to damage rolls.
That's ~600 go for functionally the same power as a +1 weapon, which costs ~2500 gp. It's not much, but it's a bargain.
>That doesn't line up with how powerful they are in EaW.
EaW is a different system from 3.5e.
Eberron handles mass buffing of weapons using Eldritch Machines, which are elaborate magical devices that create specific magical effects, such as casting Keen Edge on every weapon on the battlefield. Perhaps the weapon crystals sync to an Eldritch machine that buffs them.

I was going to attach it to my sword or bow, once I figured out how it works.
Or sell it, depending on how much it's worth.

Okay so I'm consulting my options for this upcoming fight and I don't quite like them.
First off, I don't care what y'all say, I have to heal Bat and Grif at the very least. You can argue with me all you want, but if one of them goes down in combat that not only takes them out of the fight, but Dust as well as he has to help them. This then snowballs as two of the party's main damage dealers are out for at the very least one turn. That could end very poorly.
I'm willing to compromise on healing Silver for now if he's okay with it. But I think before combat I should pop either magic vestment or aid on him. Magic vestment will make him just a little tankier which is better in a sustained fight, but aid will provide temporary HP and an attack bonus to make it so he can go in a bit harder. In this case I pop a lvl 2 heal and a lvl 1 heal on the squishier members of the party. Otherwise I stick with my original healing plan. I don't mind losing shield other at this point, cause unless I heal Dust it's not going to be as useful as it could be. But perhaps I'm wrong.
Also, if we're gonna approach the enemy, I would prefer we do it quietly as if we catch them by surprise or start the fight on our conditions I can do a little more.

It wasn't officially acknowledged by GM, but I rolled a 4 on the ostensible treat injury roll, so Brie probably only need 10 hp and not necessarily all.of that restored.
This latest combat emphasized the need to operate more conservatively and from range, avoiding fucking tentacle flailing. Mind controlled ponies can still be disabled through grapples and nonlethal strikes, going forward

We have two Rangers and a Rogue in this party: there's really no reason for the enemy to see us before we see them. If we play our cards right, we should be able to Spot the enemy several hundreds of feet away and get a surprise round.
If we meet the enemy 100-200 ft away, Posey could severely inhibit them in two rounds with Kelgore's Grave Mist.
That being said, it appears as though the Traveller has long-range telepathy, and if he has the Mindsight feat or a similar ability, stealth becomes pointless.
>>184163
>Okay, so maybe the combat wasn't too easy...
You know, I once ran a published adventure with several thousands of lvl 2 warriors as the enemies, and all of those warriors had two potions of Cure Moderate Wounds and a masterwork weapon on them. Lvl 1 NPC WBL is 500 gp: When fighting humanoids, it's easy to place convenient healing items in place of their standard treasure.

If we don't have cover, neither do they. So long as our perception is higher, we should see them first.

I'm just speaking from memory. Not being critical, just sympathetic because encounter balance can be tricky.
If you thought the encounter was too hard, maybe the next enemies might drop some healing items or something. It's usually the loot I would put on humanoid enemies.
I thought the encounter was fun, but my character also didn't really get injured/burned at all last fight, so maybe my perspective is different. Not that Posey can use potions anyway.

There's actually more to this description, but I didn't post it earlier because I only wanted to reveal her outward appearance:
>Posey's appearance is unnatural and supernatural, her vampiric heritage allowing her to appear closer to life despite being dead. Her appearance greatly depends on her mood: when cheery, her fur appears pristine and fluffy white; when less-cheery, her skin appears rotten and blotched, and her eyes glass over. When she's feeling especially nasty, she may briefly show bat-like or wolf-like traits as her monstrous nature makes itself known. Posey's appearance is a reflection of her own vanity and sense of of self (proportional to her charisma score): when she's confident, she's beautiful; when she's distressed, she appears more corpse-like. Her fangs are retractable.
>Like most katane, Posey craves blood, but is not dependent on it. Taking in blood helps her control her stress levels, and thus also control her appearance.
Rosey Ring has a lot of cosmetic mutations, and how corpselike or lively she looks depends on the situation and her mood.
I tried to make that clear by describing her on her adventures, at times she's appeared glassy eyed, colorless, rotten, or had black vines pop to the surface. During the fight with Luminous the flesh fell off her bones as she approached low HP.
