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.

>>38917he asked for a gem stone more rare than a diamond and ben said "the only one i can think of is the voidstone"
>>38919Well yeah because you asked him a question and he told you the truth
>>38920he still tried to kill me.
>>38921I hate kikes more than anything, but I don't think that was his intention.
>>38922he told infernuis to go get a stone that could kill him, he knew he was too stupid to quit untill he got said item.
>>38924I don't think Ben can be blamed for Infernius's deliberate indifference to futility of his quest
>>38925kikes are sneaky that way.

>>38773How does Damage reduction work? Do attacks still land on targets with the ability?
>>38930It works exactly as the name implies. Unless the attack is made by a type of attack that goes around the damage reduction, the amount of damage the target takes per attack is reduced by the amount of damage specified
>>38931Unfortunately I don't think you're going to get much more impressive than a Cauchemar, so nothing will really excite you. Sure, you can summon actual demons, but controlling them for your own ends will be more difficult
>>38932>I don't think you're going to get much more impressive than a CauchemarI'm not looking for combat capabilities. I want something that fits the niches she lacks in, but also synergizes with her abilities.
>>38933Didn't mean to submit.
What's most important is that it matches her character thematics.
>>38933>I want something that fits the niches she lacks in, but also synergizes with her abilitiesLike what?
>>38934And what are her character thematics exactly?
>>38932Do creatures that take no damage due to damage reduction still take damage via Smiting?
>>38936I'm getting the impression from the wiki that Smite evil just adds to the amount of damage done in the attack, but does not modify the type of attack, and so would not circumvent damage reduction if the attack would not circumvent damage reduction
>>38935Something with deft hands that could do carry hold things or use simple items. I want something intelligent, not physically strong, and it's gotta be ebil. It'd be nice to have something smaller that could follow her in stealth wherever she goes too.
Something with minor spell-like abilities would be nice.
>thematicsNightmare mythology, ghosts, edginess.. etc.
>>38937Does it add to the damage, or the attack check? Enhancement bonus is different from extra Damage.
For example, the Power Attack feat allows you to detract from the attack roll, but increase the damage of a successful attack greatly.
>>38938Power Attack is great if you have a high base attack bonus, btw.
>>38938You want a house elf
Smite evil adds the charisma bonus to the attack roll and the paladin level to the damage roll. For example, Trumpaladin would receive a +4 bonus to his attack roll and a +16 to his damage roll
>>38939I agree. I don't think I ever specified Trumpaladin's last two feats, but one of them must be power attack
>>38940Shit.. I was hoping you wouldn't figure it out..
>>38940Also a requirement for BG.You'll want Improved Sunder too, because otherwise that Shatterspike is only counts as a +1 longsword.
>>38942Do you mean like the old European myths, or like in Harry Potter? House Elves are spooky, desu.
>>38942>>38941Eh, I can put that on the list of possible companions Trumpaladin wouldn't need to kill/I wouldn't be too jealous of
no offense>>38943Improved sunder is a good feat for him to acquire, but to specify it as his sixth feat now is a bit... I don't know
It's a +3 longsword, thank you very much
>>38941Okay, serious question, can I decorate your character, and what kind of enchantments do you want?
>>38945>What kind of enchantmentsFor items? She'd appreciate anything she has a slot filled-in for.
She currently doesn't have a belt, boots, or a helmet.
>Possible companions Trump wouldn't need to killAn Alp would be the archetypical sidekick for her, desu.
>>38946I meant in her Cauchemar form (she doesn't have many slots in that form, but only the horseshoes and maybe saddle are filled), but that is something to think about
What is an Alp? I can't find it anywhere
>>38947>AlpThe older, darker version of elves in European mythology (Alp literally means "elf"), and an early inspiration for archytypes surrounding European vampires. It's pretty much exactly the same as a Night Hag, except it takes the form of a small elf boy or fairy with pointed ears, sometimes with mildly demonic features. They're wicked, sinister beings (although sometimes whimsical and carefree) who travel the countryside by attaching their invisible bodies to the backs of horses, entering the homes of mortals and feeding off of the dreams of the wicked and sinful, whole they'd treat upon while they slept. Like the Germanic Night Hags, they're associated with myths surrounding sleep paralysis and especially nightmares.
In some instances, they're known as "Sons of the mares (hags)", implying that they're sent by evil witches and demons to do their bidding, playing tricks on humans and tormenting them as they slept.
Alp appear quite a bit in Germanic folklore especially in Dark Age German prayers.

>>38951It's an """"elf""", or so it says..
It's apparently incredibly hard to catch, and even harder to kill.
Gosh I want to summon one now. It'd be perfect: basically a small Night Hag, with a disposition for >rape.
>>38952silver? holy water? a blessed hand grenade?
>>38953Problem is, they disappear as soon as they sense trouble. They turn into ghosts and you never see them again until you find yourself paralyzed the dark after the worst dream.
They're supposed to attach themselves to people filled with sin, similar to incubuses.
>>38951This
>>38953Also this
>>38952Just get a Harry Potter house elf
And please stop trying to kill off one of the prides of /mlp/ and replace her with your own conception of a European myth that never was
>>38955But I don't want a Harry Potter house elf. I want a badass Dark Age """elf""". It'd be perfect.
>>38956its more of a demon, it would fit tracys style.
Tracy is now banned from Trumpaladin's room
Congratulations
*sets magic circle against evil around bed*
>>38958Ikr. Would make a great ebil sidekick.
If it had Hag abilities, it could ride on her back or shoulder while ethereal, just like it would in myth. It could shapeshift into a humanoid as well for all sorts of utilities a pony might need assistance with.
>>38960Fuck your Ethereal bullshit
I forgot to mention. Etherealness is now a ban and post deletion, because that's the easiest solution
>>38961>>38961Feels so much better saying that
>>38882I had to run the night shift today because the plant manager is a jew. Not literally,... but literally.
Btw,... ffs ppl
>>38965Thez didn't gain it by bullshit, and doesn't use it to steal from party members or to get around actually having to RP well.
>>38958I was going for something remotely humanoid anyway.
