This is the Nuts thread. Its based on D&D 3.5e rules,... but only loosely, and only as a baseline. It's really an anything goes free-for-all, continuous RP thread. If ur interested, say "Hi" or announce yourself and GM or participants will be happy to assist. In the meantime, much of the party just jumped into the Ethereal Plane to murder some shit, cuz why not? We haven't killed anything (well Thez has) in like 3-4 days now (real-time, not game time) and like I said, why not?

Alright, so the (active) party is currently galavanting on the Ethereal Plane which is ahem a misty, fog-bound dimension. Its collection of swirling mists and colorful fogs that border the material plane, which is visible but muted and indistinct. The colors blur into eachother and the edges turn fuzzy. The area is mostly empty of structures and impediments, and there is no gravity making movement difficult to those without self-propulsion (wings, for example).

Well, my my calculations (and thats per a dice roll, since Torcuil TOTALLY moffed his control check (not that he got one for ass-leprechauns)) Torcuil is heading in a completely different direction than Trump and Tracy, and he has no control. Thez is keeping pace.
>>34526
You can shoot, in fact range rules are less applicable,... but its almost like the moving shapes know that too. They're maintaining a perimeter, analyzing the pair. There are some watching the flying-leprechaun-scotsman, but thats more from disbelief and curiosity than aggressive strategy.

This is a rough sketch of the inherent trajectories. As you can see (given the time differential) neither group (Trump/Tracy OR Torcuil/Thez) had the chance to really analyze where the other was going. Each pair is kinda on their own at this point.

There are approximately 16 signatures, of varying intensity. The stronger intensity signatures are more distant and stationary, while the less intense signatures seem to be the ones whirling around and darting to and fro.

See, here we're in a pickle. The rules listed by Ethereal Jaunt describe an individual who is otherwise non-ethereal, moving at base speed. When one considers that Tracy was spurred, she can be assumed to be moving at greater than 'base' speed. In addition, I disagree entirely with the rulebook on movement speed in the ethereal plane, with regard to self-propulsion, which Tracy has. I'm of the mind that self-propelled characters/entities - given that there are no obstructions or landscape to deter - would move at twice their base movement rate.

K. Trump is right, wings would not work. Since however, no one is using wings (or air resistence) as a propulsion method, its a moot point. The 2x speed is still in play, and Torcuil and Thez will find themselves approximately 166% the distance Trump and Tracy crossed, except to the east rather than the north.
Also, I think now is a good time to adjourn this "casual" weekend Xp

I won't spoil it, they'll be back eventually, but they didn't use ethereal jaunt. They made their way to the ethereal plane from another plane (not the material). Also it wasn't that they move faster (they don't) but they were maintaining a distanced formation. They were sizing you up.
