With Nuts of course.

Happy Holidays to everyone! Whether you celebrate Christmas, Yule, Hearths Warming, or some other degenerate (Kwanza) or (((unspoken))) tradition, I hope you have a safe and 'as happy as possible' holiday season as you no doubt maneuver in and out of the world of normies and others!
I have no idea if any crucial gaming will occur weekend, but its about to get funky-fresh on several fronts. We last left Torcuil trying to navigate through Krenshal for someone skilled and crazy enough to build a Robo-ponk. Trumpaladin and Tracy were getting their things together to hunt a Unicorn with Elway's blessing and direction. Thez is being a little bit emo (its the hormones) while Infernius continues being a dutiful and upstanding guy.
What will happen next, and in what order? Will the players defy GM's careful designs for the umpteenth time? You can bet on that!

It makes up for the lack of Int.
Anyway, Minotaurs are strong; that's just how the game works. It's not "haxx" to have a strong Minotaur.

Not true. He's not wearing the belt, or the sleeves atm. Infernius is essentially naked as far as buffs are concerned (in the buff? Xp), at least for now.

The real reason the BG class even exists is to give less-than-perfect paladins something to fall back on, when they can't find a Cleric to indulge them.

That's not true, she and Torcuil quite visibly and obviously sped off toward the docks where they are keeping a hoard of aquatic zombies at bay, while the sinister floating-pyramid makes its way toward them.

Greater Planar Ally is probably the way to go, for a particularly advanced Hag. Of course, it'd take a bit of careful planning, and a while to assemble an appropriate payment for the favor.
Infernius, would your character be willing to help Tracy scribe a scroll for that?

First I have to have Tracy steal something valuable for the payment, a fat one. A normal payment should be 500 shekels per HD for a task taking an hour, 1,000 shekels per HD for a task taking one whole day, and half payment for a non-dangerous task, but the ritual for turning magical beasts into fiends must be a well-kept secret to the Hags, so it's better to go full price. Nightmares are valuable creatures, sometimes sent to Divine Emissaries as rewards for their service to their lords, so the process of creating them must be an heirloom to the Night Hags; therefore, it'd be best to offer something close to ~20,000 shekels up front.

I g2g for a bit.

That's how Nightmares were originally created. Fiends subjected Pegasi to a black magick ritual, that involved removing their wings through torture, followed by a transformation to make them forcefully forgo their noble nature in place of ebil.

Explain yourself heathen!

Seriously, I get that Trump is dissatisfied with Tracy's haxx (ethereal, and w/e). I get that Trump is dissatisfied with Infernius' haxx (uber strength, boffing GM's brain-child), and that,... I get Torcuil being dissatisfied with Slovenia's haxx, cuz no WAY would a woman be so skilled at carpentry,....
But seriously, I get why Trump and Infernius are dissatisfied with Trump's hax. Why? Because they're outside the game rules, and thus not privy to review or ruling by the GM. I'll admit that I have my misgivings as well, but I'm not about to be a poor sport in my own thread.

To be completely honest, I have no issue with Trump doing sem-random (short term) bans or deleting posts. Desu, there's not likely to be anything ITT of such exceptional value or precise diction so as to warrant an archive of. Simply, we're a bunch of faggots, shitposting and w/e along D&D rules ish. If shit gets deleted, oh fukking well. On the other hand, along with that "OFW" determination, that's precisely the sentiment that is then applied to other characters and their Haxx. No offense (this is direct at Trump) but I spent as much time collaborating with other characters about Trump's haxx as I did with Trump about other character's haxx. Desu, I'm surprised its even come up this much. Long story short, if players want me to wipe the slate so that its 'agreeable', I can do that; but let me stress first that doing so would be so BORING.

Okay, I just think that for future reference >>37664 should be known. It's not just deviating from D&D rules here. We do that a lot and mostly no one cares. It's giving a character a set of powerful abilities (etherealness, flight, the ability to freaking light herself on fire, and wild shape to a much larger form) that belong to outer planes creatures. And this early in the game, without earning any of it - she wasn't even the one who knocked Thez unconscious or severed Soro's arm.

If a comparable change were made to another character, for example, if Trumpaladin were to become a half celestial, no way in hell it wouldn't trigger a wave of gimmees.

>a woman can't be that good of a carpenter
That's sexist. Also, she's a pony, which is superior to a human woman

The metric is:
(int modifier +2) x 3+level
Meaning, Torcuils skills should be 19(int mod +2)
