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.

Wild armor only applies to transformations via Wild Shape ability, not just any alternate form ability.

Breast plate is in the medium armor category, but when you make it out of mithril, it's light armor. So she could wear it and still fly and go her unarmored speed, but her AC would go from 26 to 31+enchantments.
I've been pouring over the D&D rules for armor and magical beasts recently looking to buff and advance my Fae character. But from a story perspective, there's not a really a logical reason not to do the same to Cauchemar Tracy, and the real reason is that she's not my character, but if she were, I'd do things like Mithral breastplate armor, which I am putting on Fae when I get the chance.
>similar to Nightmare Moon's helmet and bracers
That's exactly what I was thinking. They are so damned sexy that they really ought to be imitated if for no other reason than aesthetic purposes. GM said we can treat each piece of the armor separately for enchantment purposes, and under my estimation, a horse can support a Chanfron (helmet), criniere (neck plate), and Peytral (chest plate). The alicorns of mlp never use Peytrals (but have those sexy as fuck Chanfrons and in some fan pieces, crinieres), but it seems logical to me.
>She'd like the attention
I was thinking that adorning her with armor would be kind of an "I own you" statement that the character might like
>Only before major battles
Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Or really any time the characters have five minutes

>size
I estimate Tracy to be an 80 pound 7-hand Falabella-sized pony in rogue form, a 1900 pound 16-hand Percheron in mount form, and a 900 pound ~14-15 hand Arabian riding horse or 600 pound 13 hand Shetland in any intermediate form.
I don't see much reason to read too much into the size classes. The only strict requirement I see is that a huge creature is at least twice the size of a large one, and a large creature is at least twice the size of a medium one. Other than that, I think we can be reasonable in our interpretations of the creatures.

In pony form, yes. I still like the Nightmare moon look on a Cauchemar

I imagined Tracy's Alternate Form to pretty much look a lot like Nightmare Moon, with a few of Daybreaker's features (ie. fiery mane), her.
Also, Nicholas Cage's face turns into an angry skull, and he's surrounded by flames and chains instead of rainbows and sparkles.

In European and Asian cultures, dressing someone in their armor is thematically a very intimate process; coming from the fact that one is possibly preparing their partner for the last day of their lives. It was pretty important to the ancient Greeks (inventors of the gay bathhouse) and you can see several stanzas in poems dedicated to it, and in Japan as well (like that scene in The Last Samurai).

Can I get a better scope of the conditions required for a Sneak Attack, both melee and range? Can you declare an Attack a Sneak Attack if it's done from a point of total concealment?
>>38710
Sneak attacks can be done from concealment, or from a flanking position. Basically its an attack that can't be perceived in advance of (why Korak could do it with the pistol-cape combo, cuz his opponent couldn't see he was preparing to attack)

Catch your enemy under a circumstance where they are denied a dexterity bonus to AC (regardless of whether they actually have one). This includes catching them flatfooted (unprepared for combat), flanking them, and when they are grappling someone besides the person doing the sneak attack

That's - That's pretty awesome

That's a nice tidbit. It would be neat if the Tracy character interpreted it that way. I was thinking of something more mundane, like Knights armoring their horses because it would be inconvenient beyond measure for their horse to be killed by arrows in the middle of a charge against enemy heavy infantry or light cavalry.
It's a reflection of the kind of soldiers military-order knights - and by extension Paladins - are supposed to be. A lot of European knights rode heavy draft horses, which is the origin of breeds like the Percheron. A heavy draft horse is really inferior in a lot ways to a riding horse of half the size like an Arabian because of maneuverability, presenting a bigger target and so forth. The reason they rode such large horses of course, is because the knights wore ~100 pounds of armor. And once you have giant horses and heavy infantry on horseback, you may as well armor your horse and embrace your combat role as heavy cavalry.
Regardless, when you charge the Saracen ranks, your horse should not be naked but dressed tastefully. And you sure as shit don't want to charge English longbowmen without barding

GM, how the actual fuck did Korak have a 48 AC??? When we killed him, he only had 8AC Mithral Chain Mail, 3AC Bracers, 4AC force-shield ring, and the Armor limits the wearer to a +8 Dexterity bonus. He didn't have an amulet of natural armor, he was a rogue, not a monk, so no natural armor bonus, Dwarfs are medium creatures, so no small size bonus, he didn't have a defender sword, so unless he had some way of getting six gorrilion insight AC, I don't see how he had any more than ~33 AC

I have to say, Korak's faggot was clever in that regard.
Could Tracy recreate that strategy with her Smoke shrouding of her Alternate form too? She has Partial Concealment against enemies 5 ft away, and Total Concealment against enemies 10 ft away. She can also snort a 15 foot cone ahead of her once per round as a free action.
>>38713
Good to know.
>>38714
That's exactly what I was going for.
>>38715
Feats, probably. He's a high-level Rogue/Duelist: he's fucking hard to hit.

He's also a duelist, who get:
When not wearing armor (or when the armor counts as clothing) +1 of their intelligence bonues (if any) per duelist class level.
Lvl7+ Elaborate parry grants +1 dodge bonus for every Duelist level
Also, he had the feat Combat Mastery (I think, the one that allows up to -5 to attack but +5 to defense.

It would take 2 rounds to complete the task, and it wouldn't work in every scenario, but I see it being possible some of the time

For the first few months I was very god at holding it back. I think the things that pissed me off the most in the entire history of the rp was when Tracy's faggot used the ethereal bullshit to escape a grapple in game to get to the unicorn first and then (the next day) when he used the ethereal bullshit to try to loot hoard. In fact, I had never banned any one in the rp until the day after that, when he tried to use the alternate form bullshit to try to attack my character at 1AM when I had class the next morning at 8AM. After that, my will slowly broke down
