Read "Corny Nuts"
Which brings us into the next edition of the Game thread! For newcomers, this is an RP thread thats been ongoing for,... shit, 3 months now. How time flies.
Anywhow, its based on a very loose and permissive rendition of classic D&D 3.5 edition as a baseline, and includes whatever additions can be effectively (and not too ludicrously) included; basically whatever players want that also makes some sense.
The party has just made some character and story developments. Trump and Tracy discover that when their powers combine they form Captain Planet,... or rather, Tracy gets uber-sized and most ferocious.
Infernius and Thez have successfully tracked down and captured a Dark Elf who had been masquerading as the proprietor of the Bazaar (there is no proprietor) who were responsible for jacking all their shit.
What happens next? I have some idea, which probably means its not going to go anywhere near how I expect.

GM sighs. Okay, as we conclude this session - which has been easily the most exhausting non-combative session to date - Taylor has a new bevy of adoring fans, Tracy has a new list of ppl who are nervous/scared of/by her, Trump has a new business contact/partner (assuming he doesn't fug it up), Torcuil is still mummified in a corner, Norfilly is sleeping soundly, Sad Alex is sad and a statue, and Infernius and Thez are engaged in more than one way.
Sory is closed for the night, emotes and expressions and general doings are FFA.

The whole party (present) is shown to lavish rooms, fit for visiting dignitaries or popular entertainers. Plenty of room to wash up, change (as desired) relax, or just rest. The rooms are adjacent (no separation) and the looks on the guards' and soldiers' faces belies enthusiasm and welcoming,... especially for Taylor.

But she's a Paladin's Mount. A Paladin's Mount's base attack is calculated by the hit die's equal in Cleric levels. A Dragonne has 9 hit die (plus room for advancing...) and a Paladin's mount for a level 16 adds 8 hit die. So the equivalent of a level 16 cleric, which is to say a base attack of +12. Her strength would be 19 at dragonne base, plus 4 for being a Paladin's Mount, so 23 in strength

Your combined crafting roll needs to be a 30 or higher to make a Cloak of Charisma +6. You rolled a 5 + 8, so I'm afraid all you have now is a disappointingly mundane (and not terribly well stitched) cloak.

Ha ha, just kidding, crafting level doesn't even enter into it. The cloak is finished, but it is non-magical at this point. To create a Cloak of Charisma +6, it will take 36 days (I'm not making that up, the metric is 1 day/1000gp in cost) having Eagle's Splendor cast on it each day consecutively. 16 days for +4, 4 days for +2.

Unfortunately no, though I take back the 'consecutive' comment. The castings can be split up, as long as the overall work is not disrupted (meaning, you can leave it and come back to it) but doing so increases the requirement for every day it is neglected.

It'd be cool even without the magic (the idea of a Minotaur pulling-off his horn and blowing into it). Useful for high-stakes raids too, like the next time he inevitably charges into an enemy encampment like a bull in a china shop.

That's not what I mean by lose. Going purely by stats and abilities, he should have escaped 4-5 times, several of those being after he was kill. At my discretion, I determined that he was so abhorrently arrogant (and he IS that, even before he showed up in the Game its what got him kill) that he would not be operating at his full ability 'cuz Y? Same goes for Korak, Kefka, George, and just about every villain the party has fought so far. I haven't had the justification (yet) to go "I will not forgive" on the party. You'll know when I do. ^_^

And speaking of ants, allow me to paint a picture.

The ants are doing their thing, milling about and digging here and there, finding increasing utilitarian purpose outside the rigid dictates of the Queen, when one day a curious sound began to come from that cave they build for the Blue quadraped.

It began as a slow digging sound, but grew in intensity and proximity, with crashes and vibrations intermixed. Then without warning, the wall separating the two underground areas burst forth with a strange lizard creature that grew in size as they watched in horror. The ants ran around, screaming silently and internally (cuz, no mouths) as their whole hive was systematically hunted down and devoured or destroyed (cuz the Dog has uber-scent, especially when in survival/regen mode).

Those poor ants.
