Well, the party has gotten some things in order and has made some arrangements and plans to attack Court City in full and not as a half-assed rescue mission because of a brain worm. Speaking of brain worms, the party just kinda shrugged their shoulders and forgot about that whole "Infernius going insane and running off" bit. Hmmm. Oh well. But anyway, everyone's got some ideas and plans to put in motion. Its too bad that Port Barry is currently surrounded one 4 fronts,... that's going to complicate things.
Welcome back to the Game thread, there's over 3 dozen of 'em by now, so pardon me if I skip the introductory formalities. If you want to join, or perhaps just join in on the shitposting cuz bored, feel free. I'm working on a metric to allow new players to get in without having to go through the process of full-on mapping out a character.

What's going on in this dream?
Why do NPC nightmares normally have such high Knowledge ranks? What does a field monster do with 21 ranks in Knowledge Arcana? Not that many creatures even have Knowledge as a skill. It's weird.
>>38136
As far as base engine, Vecna and Nerull (read Nergull) are the only NE deitites
In fact, I can see both gods being quasi-sympathetic cuz reasons
Psssst, Trump,... what episode did you guys finish with last week?
Where is Oerth? Is that the same as this material plane?
>>38147Vecna - Vecna, the god of secrets, is neutral evil. He is known as the Maimed Lord, the Whispered One, and the Master of All That is Secret and Hidden. Vecna rules that which is not meant to be known and that which people wish to keep secret. The domains he is associated with are Evil, Knowledge, and Magic. He usually appears as a lich who is missing his left hand and left eye. (that's canon pasta)
Vecna is an ex-mortal who was deified sometime between AD&D and 2nd edition (maybe earlier even). There are two artifacts associated with him (the Hand and Eye), and his MO is all about discovering (and then hoarding) any type of magical secrets.
Nerull - The god of death, Nerull, is neutral evil. He is known as the Reapoer, the Foe of All Good, Hater of Life, Bringer of Darkness, King of All Gloom, and Reaper of Flesh. Nerull is the patron of those who seek the greatest evil for their own enjoyment or gain. The domains he is associated with are Death, Evil, and Trickery.
>>38149Worthy opponents
GM, can we resume the God Emperor's task of eternally separating and sealing off the Material Plane from the Evil planes?
>>38149Yeah, I just finished reading both of their wikis.
Of course, Tracy doesn't actually know any of this yet, nor does she have any particular motivation to seek it out. I want her to make contact with the Hags first before she goes down the path of darkness.
>>38150That quest sounds like it would take centuries. It would probably piss-off Thez and a bunch of gods too.
>>38150There is a seal in place
>>38151She isn't? I thought Tracy was researching
>>38151>The Wall would be too expensive to build, and would harm U.S. - Mexico relationsNigger, my Patron Saint is the Saint of building barriers to keep out bad hombres
>>38152Forgot about the Golden Lady upholding the Travel Ban
>>38153It would take one hell of a Spellcraft check though.
>>38152Let's wait until the undead hordes are repelled until we do researching into how to get Exterminatus-ed
>>38155Hello I am here, what would I need to roll with max spellcraft levels?
>>38155See
>>38154. Torcuil is putting his skill points into Spellcraft to help make it possible
>>38158I am me.
>>38152 is probably GM from a weird new IP
>>38158>whoIsn't it obvious?
>>38157So 16? Spellcraft is essentially a magical comprehension skill. It affects encounters with other spellcasters, as well as the ease of interpreting items, scolls, and books.
>>38152>Tracy was researchingEveryone's still on the battlefield, right? I was going to have her do the book-flipping after everything was completed.
>>38161Yeah, I was gonna do it anyway
>>38161Don't you also need it to develop Ebin Spell Seeds?
>>38162This. We have a lot of shit to do before Tracy can go figure out how to be Exterminatused
>>38161>obviousSorry, the changing colors threw me off...
Can skill points be gained in the holodeck?
>>38162Oh yeah. I forgot about that. Remind me not to end the weekend on a battlefield. Uhm,... eh. None of it actionable at the moment, so its all meta for the moment.
>>38167 >>38168REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Stop changing colors so much!
>it's all meta
How long would it take to produce a Planar Ally scroll?
>>38164Ebin Spells are the boss, desu.. Some of them have insane, god-tier effects.
>>38174necromancer stuff is bretty bool
>>38175Momento Mori can kill anything instantly as a free action.
How many ranks did you put into Spellcraft?
>>38172An 8th level clerical spell? No less than 4 days. Also, you need a cleric capable of casting the spell.
>>38171My parent's wifi is messing up. I'd definitely prefer to stay on my parent's wifi, because I have dozens of Warhammer 40k memes saved on my laptop that just became topical
>>38179You could probably start developing Seeds about now, if I'm correct.
>>38182call me a newfag but what kind?
>>38183I didn't look too hard because looking makes me jelly...
>>38185Epic Spell seeds. The uber spells you use to create giga-uber spells and rituals.
like how
Life is a seed for
Gathering Of Maggots.https://dnd-wiki.org/wiki/SRD:Life_(Epic_Spell_Seed)https://dnd-wiki.org/wiki/SRD:Gathering_of_MaggotsWhen will our caster be able to cast spells of this magnitude?
>>38185GM, as a completely hypothetical question that will probably never leave meta, what gods would match a Blackguard Trumpaladin?
>>38187>reading intensifiesI had been going off a homebrew idea for rituals,... which is now going into the trash,... again,... but that's fine
>gathering of maggotsHow lovely
>>38188Well, Hextor for one
>>38187>Can animate inanimate objectsI feel like that's a perfectly neutral power that I would be sorely tempted to use for evil
>>38189Who else!
Also, why do you say that?
I kind of want to know how you or others interpret my character >>38193Liches really can't compare. Worms are Eldritch tier.
https://dnd-wiki.org/wiki/SRD:Worm_That_Walks >>38198I was using the idea of a ritual,... contrived and specialized for a particular purpose. I didn't say it was a GOOD idea,....
>>38196He means a permanent spell rather than one that lasts a few hours
>>38196Polymorph doesn't grant any extraordinary or spell-like abilities though. And it's not permanent.
Transform permanently changes one creature into another.
>>38199Did it require insane spellcraft checks?
>>38200>>38201could it change a minotuar into a hoo-man?
Some of these Rituals are insane.
https://dnd-wiki.org/wiki/SRD:Dragon_Strike>summon 10 adult red dragons>10!>>38202Why would you ask that? And yes.
>>38200>shrugsI'd have gone with Polymorph and Permanency in that event, but either works.
>>38201That depends on the player proposing it. If the player says "I wanna do a thing", higher. If the player says "Character is going to perform a ritual to produce the following effects. The components and accessories include (blah) and would incorporate (blur blur)." then less.
>>38203>summon 10 dragonsSounds like a good way to get eated desu
>>38202With a good check, you could probably develop it pretty soon.
>>38205That idea feels kind of better, desu. I like the idea of non-casters being able to create certain effects through careful planning.
>>38207It's too expensive for any party to cast though. It takes 11 casters contributing 9th level spell slots.
>>38212No ritual of that power could possibly come without sacrifice.
>>38203well i was thinking of turning hoo-man
>>38216to truly experience being aryan.
>>38217There's so many ways I could respond to this
>Inb4 Ayran Infernius plays out Flowers for Algernon in his human form
>>38222>>38221ive never read it give me a basic gestalt.
>>38215Would you be willing to permanently alter Tracy's base-species into a hoary steed, so she can be all ghost-pony all the time?
>>38224Just take the Half-long racial base
>>38224i would but i dont think certain party members would like it.
>>38225You mean like the half-dragon?
>>38223Dumb guy gets crazy mind-hax. Learns mind-hax are temporary. Runs away. The end.
>>38220Ikr...
>>38217He's a Heck bull: one of the last of his kind. Wouldn't it be a shame to give that up?
>>38223Flowers for Algernon is a book about a mentally retarded man who agrees to be a test subject in an experiment to increase IQ. The experiment successful raises his IQ all the way to superior or even genius level. It's been a while since I read it (eleven years) so I can't remember all of the plot, but I believe he undergoes a sort of loss of innocence thereafter, or starts to be disliked by others. The book ends with it being discovered the treatment slowly fades and kills lab rats, with the man losing his intelligence and probably destined to be killed by or left even dumber by the treatment
>>38230ill develop a aryan to heck mintuar spell first.
Also there is a bunch of introspection about how when one behaves in a particular manner others grow accustomed to it, though their manner of accustom doesn't necessarily fit the individual's, and how deviating from those customs cause strive and an upending of previously established norms,....
>>38230He could undo it I bet you
>>38228I don't see it.
Anyway, a hoary steed is basically exactly what regular Tracy is, a small blue-ish horse, only it's Ice type.
>>38232>Inferinus spends weeks developing a god-tier spell to change his hair color, even when he's already the bovine equivalent to an Aryan>10 Int>>38234Those spells are expensive.
>>38235Yeah fuck your haxxor. No free astral projection whatever as a racial feature
>>38237>haxxIt's all within the rules.
>>38237For the record, I get many keks whenever you start on about that,....
There will be nerfing tho
>>38236What's wrong with Torcuil's polymorph?
>>38240It's not permanent, and it doesn't grant extraordinary or spell-like abilities.
It might be cheaper if he just wants to be Aryan for a day though.
>>38245Skididle, skidoodle
Your dick is now a noodle
>>38245Wait until the battle is over.
>>38241Poor Torcuil
*pets wizard*
>>38239It triggers me
>>38242Would it do what he wants?
>>38247Wh-what kind of nerfing..?
>>38250>Would it do what he wants?Would what do what who wants?
>>38252Soft,... foam,... and acceptable for children,....
No, I really don't know. I just said it so that if randomly I decide to nerf anyone I can say "I warned you".
>>38257>willingly refuses to wear epic arms and belt if strength>wants to give up racial bonus to strength>says he's afraid of being nerfedInfernius, are you being a bitch right now? Because last I checked, unless you are a bitch, you can't be nerfed
>>38256I forgot to bitch about the free flying and etherealness haxx abilities while in the Rabbit
Oh well... I'll bitch next time
>>38257"You shush, and put the belt and the arms on. Dammit."
Thez likes it rough.
>>38192But seriously... wtf? With enough of a Spellcraft DC, you can turn a bug into a Force Dragon.. That's ridiculous.
An epic level Wizard can do literally anything...
>Range: 300 ftOh come on.
>>38261>wearing the belt and arms for ThezDianne Fienstien is the woman he ought to be wearing those uber items for, not Thez
>>38264Funny that you mention Feinstein,....
>>38262You can even Transform the subject into specific individuals.
You could turn a rock into another Kefka.
>>38266>>38261"you put on one of those costumes i bought for you"
>>38268>puts on the Raven one."IDK what you're thinking, this wouldn't be any use except for a particularly whorish spell-caster,...."
>>38267Oh THAT'S a great idea o_o
>>38269"me think it look good om you"
*grapples*
>>38268Thez would make a great Wendy's girl, desu.>>38270I don't see any exclusion for unique creatures either...
Can it really be developed turn a creature into a Tarrasque? Will a spellcraft DC high enough? I actually hope I'm reading this wrong..
>>38271*cough* a leftist Senator lich is attacking the city by infiltrating the sewers *cough*
>>38273Doesn't matter, we're in a meta time-lapse.

Unless a 1, Infernius is dropped Thez, hand bound behind her, still stands triumphantly in Raven cosplay.
"You were saying?"

"Shh... It's okay horsey"
Srsly tho, I'm out for the night. Sexin and such to habben in turn; its the bathhouse after all>>38285>undeadUhm,... how skilled/practiced is Trump at controlling undead? Just asking for a friend of course.
>>38283>>38284"hit me again baby, Me like it."
>>38288Not really practiced, but I believe he should be able to turn undead at the rate of 3 a day plus Charisma modifier, which would be 7. He also has the Circlet of persuasion, which I think gives +3 to turn checks?
>>38289>furious sex noisesYou know, as GM I'm inclined to tell you two things. 1., she would be disappointed if Infernius lost stature (read: went from Minotaur to Human), and 2. If he wants to learn Monk, there's gonna be a WHOLE LOT of hitting.
>>38290I think the circlet only applies to Char related checks, like Diplomacy, Bluff and intimidate. It doesn't actually increase the modifier.
>>38287*Bloodlust rapidly converts into friskiness*
*Doesn't give two shit about the sea of gore around them*
