NO HOMO
This begins yet another edition of the Game thread, this time extra sweet 'cuz Norfilly won't stop being so damn cute.
The party has successfully felled the Terrasque, removed the head from the Nerd, watched as George Soros got his fool head blown off and was BTFO yet again (how WILL he live down the infamy?) and now ventures off to collect sticks, or build telescopes, or whatever it is they plan to do now that there's a new thread that isn't over 1.1k posts.
There is now an official bath-house, and characters seem quite taken by it both in spite of and to troll any detractors who would otherwise throw salt in our fun.
This is an ongoing RPG thread geared toward D&D-esque adventuring, shitposting, funposting, bantz, shitposting, funposting, and murder.
Feel free to join! The bathwater (and blood) is nice.

>>20249>>20246Ok torculi form here foward you are promoted to lieutenant, and head of Research(technological and Magical) the Gestapo.
It's probably a good idea to have a diplomatic sortie to the capital, to see exactly what we're dealing with. Will we be greated with open arms as liberators? A city in civil war? Closed gates to a walled city? An army? Better to answer those questions before arriving when our intentions will be more clear to those inside.
I think I'll need Kefka's head though. You know, to price we killed him.
>tfw having a spy and assassin would be the most useful thing ever
>>20248>>20247I can do that.
>Torc grabs a book for notes and head dto the library for research>>20250Torc has a staff of transmutilation
>>20252Nice
>bread be slower than a retarded 4 year old >>20260Can you make me a cyber-bear mount?
>>20255I could stop off there and see if tracy doesn't want to.
What was the name of Korak's camo-cloak? I'm trying to figure out how to use it in combat.
>>20265Was it the cloak of elvenkind?
>>20266Idk, possibly.
I'm trying to type-up the second rough draft for my character sheet.
>>20267What did the cloak do i could maybe tell you the name.
>>20268I know it granted partial concealment that increased as long as it was used. GM said if used correctly it could allow the user to perform sneak attacks while observed. I thought it could have some great synergy with the nightmare's smoke, in deadly battles.
>>20268Changes colors to suit the surrounding when desired
>>20269I'm trying to figure out how to properly perform sneak attacks with the cane-sword too: It'd be absolutely lethal if it could triple an Assassin's Death Attack.
>>20269>>20270Cloak of Elvenkind: This cloak of neutral gray cloth is indistinguishable from an ordinary cloak of the same color. However, when worn with the hood drawn up around the head, it gives the wearer a +5 competence bonus on Hide checks
Sound similar?
>>20273Id put an * next to it on your sheet untill the gm can weigh in on it.
Idk if it was ever clear if Thez took back Bob or not, but it seemed like so.
Tracy, if your assassins guild needs a client...
>>20276Actually, she may as well take it back, along with her staff of ki-striking. I thought she'd want them as soon as she got back.
*hands weapons to Thez*
>>20277Tracy never actually mentioned any guild, and it isn't even clear if there will be one, but feel free to mouth off about dipshits you don't like.
>>20279>>20035>>13733 →...Yeah, on third thought, I am going to keep those separate from the rest of the pile: that stuff looks too persal to mix with everything else.
*Moves treasure back hiding spot, leaving note for Thez to pick it up, since she already knows about the dungeon*
(Remind me to build another >RapeDungeon) >>20263Why hire people todo alchemy when Torc can do it
>>20285Good point.
Torc can craft scrolls too, cant he? The party could use a bunch of those.
Can we train homing pidgeons? That would be insanely useful
>>20289Because homing pigeons are almost insane for their ability to carry messages over miles with perfect navigation
>>20287You need the Handle Animal skill to do that, and you gotta do it one at a time (takes a week for even basic tricks). Certain NPCs could be hired to do it though.
A Ranger or a Druid would be useful for an animal-related task that big.
>>20289Hawks get distracted.
>>20291Another reason why we should track down a zigger!
>>20291For that matter, I wonder what intelligence score Ponimaru has.
>>20293It would be difficult (hippies don't even leave footprints), but with combined skills and spells one could be found potentially be found. Nightmares are natural Trackers, and Infernius can find some routs/clues using a couple divine spells.
>>20289Gonna assume yes, but ask GM.
Also I just noticed how William Wallace Torc's backstory is. I swear I wasn't even trying >>20295You called your army Wallace's Army. Yes you were
>>20294"Me am so good at tracking zigger"
>>20222So no?
>>20223Other than "look for druids"?
>>202268O
>>20230No magic creature books, but they saw you. Don't overthink it.
>>20240THANK YOU
>>20251Gear components, sure. No more mutagens. You know what, I'm just going to shut up and let you guys find out what happens when you do stuff.
>>20265Cloak (see robe) of scintilating colors
>>20284Oh quit your whining, Thez and Torcuil are the only ones who can even get IN, and Thez is the only one (aside from the whole ant colony,... you don't seem to mind THEM knowing) who knows where it is.
>>20286Scribe Scroll feat to do it independently. He can do it without the feat using the tools in the Library.
>>20287Or you could inquire around the Port,....
Since you're all familiar with Feats, I'll take this time to point out that any crafting or fabricating feat that a player doesn't have can be bypassed by a device in the Tower. Remember all those machines I mentioned? That is what they do, that is what they are for. No, they can't be removed.
>>20301Some magic items require spells, do you necessarily need to know those spells, or can you use scrolls or the assistance of another character?
>>20299>>20301Can torculi make me a cyber-bear mount?
>>20302Assistence. The devices ONLY bypass the requisite 'craft' feat, NOT the essential components.
>>20303By all means, try.
>>20304I was planning on returning her to thez.
>>20306Well, she's awake now.
"Another consequence of being 'normal' again,... this whole 'being tired' and 'having to sleep' thing.
>>20308D-does she have bed hair?
>>20308Reminder that I am waking up next to Slovenia
>>20309No, it's in a long braid now.
>>20310>has been reminded Also, her hair is a deep-red/burgandy now (again,... it was before but that was a long time before you met)
>>20311"Hey ana me have something for you."
>>20296I actually wasn't, besides sounds better than Roberts Army>>20299Uh, Torc can get in where?
Also, how I get a feat?
>>20305It doesn't bypass epic feats, does it?
>>20312And you said her skin was gray, right?
(just want to know, in case I find the motivation to meme). >>20313Don't give her up until we know you have a replacement. You'll probably need her
>>20317>too late too deleteMY SCRUFFY POWERS KNOWS NO SUCH THING AS "TOO LATE"
>>20318"Giving her back is right thing."
Can your scruffy powers wipe my mind?
>>20319They can remove the product of your mind from the board
>>20319"She was given to you for a reason - so that you may use her our our continuing crusade"
>>20313"Oh?"
>>20314Depends on the feat
>>20315No it doesn't bypass epic feats.
She has grey skin (like wet concrete), burgundy hair, and is now wearing a simple set of dark fighting robes (think Darth Maul)
>>20320Yeah, she wants you to have it. Besides, she has other things in mind.
>>20305Can special abilities and spell-like function as spells for crafting? As in, can Tracy use her Etherrealness and Astral Projection to craft certain items that could duplicate those abilities for others?
>>20323No. Only spell-like abilities that can be used on or to affect others.
... by that I mean, to place an effect on someone else, not to include them in the effect you're placing on yourself.
>>20321*takes off sleeves and belt*
"Do You want these back ana?, also me have surprise later"
I can't figure this out for the life of me, how do an Assassin's known Spells work?
>>20327Those things come off?
Don't take off the regen stone before knowing.
>>20327"Stahp. You need those. And I need you"
>>20329Thez pulled the regen stone out of my stomach, and she gave me a ring that does it.
>>20327Uhm,... if you're taking the sleeves off, you'll want to go to the entertron,... ever removed a few dozen deeply-embedded knives? Lots of blood,.... I'll assume that happened 'off camera'.
"If you don't want them anymore, I suppose I'll take them back," she seems disappointed. "What kind of surprise?"
>>20328Spells are gained by,... well it doesn't have any particular requirements, but it wouldn't make sense for an assassin to gain/learn spells the same way mages do,... so I'll just assume assassin spells (limited that they are) are more like sorcerer's spells in that they respond to an innate desire to achieve an effect.
>>20332"No no me love the sleves they make me strong, me was just wondering since no more devil powers if you wanted sleeves back. It wouldn't be a surprise if me told you would it?"*sticks out tounge playfully*
>>20334"Fair point. Still, I've got more then enough techniques and abilities. Besides, those have some,... unpleasant memories attached to them for me. On you they're quite fetching." ^_~
>>20333.....
I don't follow...To go to the root of my question, what's the scope of Tracy's spellcasting abilities right now?
I want to know, because I'd like to craft some items.
>>20335Thats the same as my books, which while saying how many/what spells, it doesn't say whether its a "gain spells by reading/interpreting", or whether you need a spellbook or what-not.
>>20337Okay, what sort of items?
Oh wait, I missed the bit about "just like a bard does"
Okay yeah, you just 'get them' essentially.
>>20338>what sort of items?I need to check again to see what spells my character has access too..
>>20336"Okay if you're sure ill go put them back on, me think your hair look beautiful by the way"
Do the arms talk gm?
Okay, spellcrafting feat. How get?
I fucking hate technical support
>>20344You forgot the indian I can't understand whom can't understand me
>>20342How about we assume you never took them off and were conversating, for sake of brevity? I mean you can go through the whole "getting eaten and fighting them" bit again if you REALLY want,....
In a meta-sense, Thez is transitioning from a story-driving character (relating to past context and the surrounding world) into a support/admin character (helping to support and develop the resources and abilities of the Port and the factions within it). She's still available to whup ass at a moment's notice, but beyond the needs of the party, she doesn't want to watch the city burn again, nor risk the lives of innocents at the hands of nefarious forces, especially with the party looking to side-quest.
I'm gonna bake a new bread here in a moment. Standby
Spells she has so far:
>disguise self, detect poison, feather fall, ghost sound, jump, obscuring mist, sleep, true strike.
>cause fear, corrupt weapon, cure light wounds, doom, inflict light wounds, magic weapon, summon monster I*.
>bull’s strength, cure moderate wounds, darkness, death knell, eagle’s splendor, inflict moderate wounds, shatter, summon monster II*.
