I'll tell you why the entertron won't fix it. It's because it is psychosomatic

>>30966
>Infernius is infected with a parasite
Oh...

Oh...

I think I know what it is

>>31003
That's what I thought..

>>31004
It can't be a physical parasite though, because Tracy already immolated his body. Detect Evil may reveal impure beings/spells within the body.
Maybe try, Break Enchantment?

"te-tell Thez i-i love her."

>>31009
*body goes limp*

>>31006
Well... Does the Entertron fail to resurrect all parasitic lifeforms inside of a host when the host's material is entered but the parasite's is not? If this is the case, then when Thez was casually killing the entire party for fun, she would have Killed tracy's child, but did not resurrect it. So Tracy's child would be dead and Tracy no longer pregnant.

>>31007
That or cheating on Thez

>>31009
That's sad

>>31018
"I will Infernius, I will. She knows though..."

>>31011
>when Thez was casually killing the entire party for fun, she would have Killed tracy's child
This has been bothering me for a while, desu.. That time was the only time she ever died.. (I've acyually been extra cautious with her for that reason)
For that matter, would Blasphemy have even killed her, since she's ebil? I actually figured that Thez just one-shotted with a melee attack in the moment, while the utter foulness of "that phrase" had her stunned, although GM never specified that. Either way, she was out cold

I'm not going to lie to you and tell you I'm not the kind of guy to steal someone else's waifu, because I am. But I value our relationship far more than that. I value our friendship more than that. I value you. And I would not intentionally do anything to hurt you."

If it were that, wouldn't he have lost all his class abilities because of it too?
We don't have anyone who can cast Atonement, so he's fugged if that's the case.

"What... what can I do to help?"

>>31026
*reappears, holding torch*

>>31027
"do we have a fireplace?"

>>31029
"We should, either in the library or the forge. I kept trying to get Tracy to stop wasting her time on those eggs and just put them in front of a fireplace, but she didn't listen"

>>31030
"c-could you help me there?"

>>31029
"You'll die immediately if you leave the Entertron."
>>31030
"They needed a mother's care, not just heat."

>>31032
"i feel like my blood is freezing."

>>31031
"Just a minute"
>>31032
"Why would he die if he left the entertron?"

>>31032
"They were eggs. You can literally leave them in an incubator"

>>31033
*holds torch closer*
>>31034
"He's been bleeding from every orifice for hours now. The only reason he hasn't shriveled up is because of the healing affect."

>>31036
"tracy light me on fire."

>>31036
"Don't light him on fire"

>>31037
>>31038
"Well, which is it?!"

>>31036
"He should have a regenerating ring though. Does he have a regenerating ring?"

>>31040
I think he gave that back to Thez.

>>31041
"That was his engagement ring wasn't it? He needs that back"

>>31042
>>31041
"only thing me have with me right now."

>>31043
"Then... I guess it's safe to take you out, and take you to the library"

>>31043
"Damnit Infernius, you ain't dying today."
What can Torc do in the way of detection spells?

*makes True Strike Scroll*

Were we going to run the campaign today/tonight? Or should I make other plans?

>>31046
Are you trying to make a shatter spike? You know I have something that is vastly better, right?

I am not sure

>>31048
I need to think for once in my pathetic life
What am I looking for?

>>31043
Trumpaladin, who is technically speaking a healer, uses "Remove Disease" on Infernius

>>31049
No one knows

>>31047
Did you ever take the Improved Sunder feat? Without the feat, it only functions as a +1 longsword, the feat is also a requirement for Blackguard.

>>31050
nothing happens.

https://dnd-wiki.org/wiki/SRD:Detect_Chaos
Fuck it, I'll try this

>>31053
As a Chaotic Cleric, his body radiates the aura normally.
Trumpaladin, try, detect Evil.

>>31051
GM explicitly stated Suiboto is a hell of a lot better than a shatterspike. In fact, he replied to one of your "Tracy crafts a shatter spike" with "or, you could just use the much better one Trump never uses"

>>31054
Sure

>>31052
Detect Alignment on Infernius, using Vanderiem's power so Trump doesn't expend a spell

>>31055
I know that, but do you have the feat?
>Detect Alignment
Your character wouldn't think of that. Just start with Detect Evil.

>>31054
i gotta go for a couple hours.

>>31057
Reeeeeeeeeeee!
See ya'; 'till then.

>>31056
My character is saving his detect evil spells for something else...

No, I do not believe I have the feat

>>31054
>thows self off cliff
Can a chracter us a spell of a higher level, but then has to deal with penalties and shit for a while?
Also, what level clerical spels can Infernius use?

>>31059
You can cast Detect Evil unlimitedly.
Also, you should take the feat. Even if the sword worked without the feat, you'd still provoke attacks of opportunity whenever you tired to use it, meaning you could get your head cut off when you tried to sunder an enemy's weapon.

>>31060
Idk. But might just be best to wait until Infernius/GM gets back.
Infernius can cast up to 8th level Clerical spells.

>>31061
>Unlimited detect evil
Wait, really?
*casts detect evil, even though it will just reveal an evil presence... aaaannnnnnnnnnd it's Tracy
>>31061
>you'd still provoke attacks of opportunity whenever you tired to use it
We'll let GM expalin how Suiboto works

>>31062
I was gonna wait, I'm just making a plan

>>31064
You could always prepare spells or scribe scrolls.
I g2g for a while.

okay, last question before I lay out my plan.
Is the parasite affecting Infernius's body or consiousness?

>>31066
We don't even know if there is a parasite

>>31068
We don't know. We do know that he is suffering physical efects, but those could be psychosomatic. We don't know if he has a parasite, and we don't know what it is infecting. Everything that could heal the body doesn't seem to work, so my guess is that if there is a parasite, it is either one that affects consciousness, or it is one that is not affected by healing - the only way that could happen is if Infernius is pregnant

>>31068
He is suffering severe physical effects sort of similar to deadly influenza, but "remove disease" and the Entertron do nothing, suggesting he is not actually suffering from disease even though he clearly has the symptoms of it

>>31069
>>31070
Well, I have an idea. It's either going to kill Torc or fix this mess.
I want run it by gm alone though.

It is unknown how many charges the staff has, or how quickly they regenerate. Don't break it.
The Bracers are more ornamental than one's average 'functionally magic' bracers (they WERE made for Thez). They have very clear symbols and icons of contemporary shields, as well as a glass(steel) lens that duplicates the proportions of the shield its self on both pieces.
When in use, the shield is just out of arm's reach, though if it is lowered to the ground, it can be stood on as a stationary 'plate' (or crouched on and used for a sled if you find yourself going down a snow-covered hill).

Oh is it freezing? You poor baby,... where I live its below freezing for the next 2-3 months. Xp
>>30966

She hasn't said, she was just making sure you could.

When THEZ was casually killing the party? I,... oh you were just incapacitated.
>>31046
I gotta work till 10:30p tonight
>>31060
No higher level spells, except scrolls (and u have to make a spellcraft check).
>>31062
I have to remind you,... the creation of scrolls is a magical item crafting. Meaning, you can't be scribing scrolls at the same time you're working on your singular item,....
>>31071
Oh boy

>>31072
>oh boy
Prepare your flowcharts

>>31072
Looking at the wiki it's looking like Trollestia probably can't do what I really want her to do...

You do remember when Thez was casually killing the party with the Starlight Glimmer thing right? I was pissing her off by asking some question so she killed Infernius and Tracy and Me. I think this was very shortly after the Kefka battle, but I am not sure

>>31074
This

>>31072
>scrolls count as magick items
Okay, forget about that then.

Did Tracy bring back anything interesting from the bazaar?

>>31074
Fine, prepare your fucking rule books.
But first I do need to know how that thing is affecting Infernius: mind or body?

>>31077
We don't know.

>>31078
Did I fucking ask you?

>>31077
And how do you plan to determine that?

>>31075
He just said they were only incapacitated.
And it was before the Kefka battle.

>>31080
Magic n shite

>>31080
Did Trumpaladin's Detect Ebil pick up any malign auras from Infernius's body?

>>31079
>>31077
We. Don't. KNOW.

>>31081
Sure, whatever

>>31083
This

>>31084
I didn't ask you either

>>31086
GM is not going to metagame in the way you want him to. You're going to have to do trial and error just like all of the rest of us

>>31082
Fire away
>>31083
Yes. Tiny and elusive, somewhere in Infernius's head.
>>31084
Babies aren't parasites, unless their parents are parasites. Xp

>>31088
>Yes. Tiny and elusive, somewhere in Infernius's head
Oh Shit!

>babies aren't parasites
In the mammalian life cycle, the earliest stages are spent sucking blood and nutrients from a host with which it remains in prolonged contact, despite being a seperate organism. This meets the biological definition of a parasite

>>31088
Okay, it is physical and not mental.
Can Torc use this spell?
http://www.d20srd.org/srd/psionic/powers/mindSwitch.htm

>>31088
How many evil signatures?

>>31090
>parasites
Only if you're engaging the most detached and dismissive definition of parasite possible. In the same sense, an apple on an apple tree is a parasite. Xp

>>31090
Offspring of placental mammals are not considered to be parasites.

>>31093
So, no?

>>31093
An apple on a tree is not a separate organism. It is a growth of the apple tree

>>31094
Kek, we could try that. It should kill the infection

It meets the CDC's definition

*gets mounted and chases after the bull*
>100 speed
*Catches up to him instantly and slashes with intent to sever legs*

kek

>>31112
Damn, that's a good point. Just Grapple him and chain him though. No need to slash sinews

*extends chain and attempts to entangle bull*

[1d20 = 17]
*grapples Infernius, jumping off Tracy if necessary*

>>31112
I don't know, he had a good head start, and there's lots of places to hide in the middle section.
While I have the chance, the middle section is something like a a strip-mall, except that goes in all directions. There are an amazing number of specialty buildings, shops, and features, all abandoned for hundreds of years. It would be covered in dust if the whole building wasn't essentially sterile.

>>31115
>>31116
"Yee Haw! Roping a bull from horse back! Now THIS is a rodeo!"

>>31118
>lots of places to hide
Tracy casts Detect Good to sense his Clerical Aura.

The only thing that's known is that there is a tiny evil presence in Infernius's brain, and that he hasn't left the Tower, either by the front door or by teleporting using the dais.

>>31120
THAT will lead Tracy right to Infernius. The former (with Trump) can prepare to approach and rodeo, but its not like Infernius doesn't know they're there.

>>31121
>>31119
>>31120
"help over h-"

>>31122

Trump's faggot, get ready to respond.

>>31126
This before This >>31125

>>31125
You remembered! You did remember right? The party has a Rope of Entangling
>>31126
Detecting the parasite takes a full 3 rounds due to the size and nature. Be aware.

>>31128
>The party has a Rope of Entangling
I have never heard of that, but sure. He takes whatever rope is there

>Three rounds
How long does it take Tracy to get in grapple range?

*high pitch voice infernuis shouldn't be able to make*
"You fools will never catch me."

No, that was in the treasury when the party first reclaimed it from the ants. I thought Tracy took possession of it, but then I suppose it either got stolen or buried in Tracy's dungeon in that event.

[2d20 = 31]
*walks straight through walls and whatever to get to the bull's Aura location faster*
>>31137
Shouldn't that take two checks?
Spot and listen (both +5) to hone-in faster. She can still feel the aura too.

"Bull is on the lose, infected with a mind control Jew Parasite. Use your track to hunt him down in Tower middle section. Grapple, then rope him if you find him - alert us"

>>31140
>>31139
Trumpaladin is grabbing the rope from Tracy's bag, so I guess he does use it.

Spins rope like lasso, readying a lasso attack on Infernius

>>31141
Reeee! You'll fuck up muh stealth.
Have her guard the dais.
*phases through walls towards bull's aura/scent/sound, in stealth*

Ain't nothing stealthy about a 2000 pound horse with heavy breathes charging through a strip mall. Ethereal Jaunt would take too many rounds. Just go around in a single round, or Break through the walls, since you weight a literal ton

>>31152
That's what the wiki says

What is a dais?

>>31151
He could with the dais.
>>31153
*follows bull wherever he is, if he's still there*
>>31154
Yeah, but she doesn't have to snort every turn.
The dais is the teleporter. That's why I said to send Fae there.

>>31157
>>31155
Trumpaladin and Trumpaladin's faggot have no idea what a dias is, why there is one in the tower, where there is a dais in the tower, or how he could teleport using the thing he's never heard of before 20 minutes ago
\r

>>31154
A dais is a low platform for a lectern, seat of honor, or a throne

Also, for the 6 gorillionth time, did TYracy manage to find anything interesting at the bazaar or not?
>>31158
see >>31121

>>31157
Well, I'm saying that limited character knowledge meant protecting the Greek-named teleporter was impossible for Trumpaladin

>>31151
>>31161
i gotta go again ill be back later.

>>31159
Yeah I saw google. That doesn't explain why it's in the middle section, why it teleports or anything.
>>31160
Eh, I missed it, and Trumpaldin wouldn't know that either

>>31163
Uh, wasn't the dais what Torc investigated when we first started?

>>31164
Maybe? My character didn't investigate and I didn't read all of you posts

In any event, pic related
\r

[frustrated nightmare noises]
"I swear, ext time I see that emo bovine, I'm going to grind him into hamburger!"

Tracy then paces about all the abandoned shoips and whatnot, Searching for abandoned items and anything else interesting. She uses her Detect Magick wand to identify any plausible magick items of facilities.
>>31164
I think it was.

>>31166
*pets horsey to calm her*

Trumpaladin also looks at the shops, which he intends to open to the public in a commercial venture

>>31158
>Trumpaladin's faggot have no idea what a dias is
I did though... I suspected you didn't, so that why I spoke up...

When will the baker make more bread?

Tracy examines the shops as well, searching for anything of value that may have been left behind.

Also, did she find anything at the flea market? because the question has been driving me insane since yesterday afternoon.

>>31168
Huh. Perhaps we'll do better and make more efficient use of NPCs next time

>>31170
If GM does not Return, Trumpaladin directs Tracy into a more secluded location

>>31171
Fucking rabbits

>>31156
Sorry, my browser keeps freezing.
>>31146
What does this mean?
>>31138
Okay, I missed this one legit
>>31157
>>31158
The dais is at the top, but Thez has that covered. If he teleported, he may still be somewhere in the tower.
>>31160
No.

I'll bake soon, sheesh

>>31170
"TRACY, TRACK HIM DOWN!"

Casts Detect Good Again, to find his aura.
Spot+5
Listen+5
Track (via the scent of his blood and diarrhea, since he was bleeding profusely, and hasn't bathed since then)

Casts detect evil. If it takes three rounds then it takes three rounds

>>31176
Desu, you'll have to wait until Infernius' faggot returns, I'm giving him creative discretion on this. Depending on what he had in mind by teleport, its possible he's not in the tower.

>>31178
But he can't teleport. He can cast "Astral Gate," but he can't teleport

>>31178
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Okay then, can Tracy ransack the shops and facilities as she looks for him?

>>31180
Husbando is on your back, so she'll have to share. But yes, ransack shops

>>31179
Infernius couldn't, that's true

>>31181
Did you ever make a bag? Where have you been carrying your stuff.

>>31181
Its all machines and devices, mostly offering haxx for item creation. That one over there looks like a scroll printing press.

>>31183
Robe of a Billion Pockets

>>31184
Eh

Wait. Can I staff these with resurrected pirates, then trade magical items to Sparintenar?

>>31173
Its fine, just have trollestia get Torc tere plz

How long does True Strike last
>>31185
They're normal-sized pockets though, aren't they?
>>31185
>trade magical items
You need spellcasters to make those.

>>31185
Yeah, IDK about pirates, but they can be staffed, sure.

*Tracy gets increasingly frustrated*

Fug it, baking
