What it is? Its an ongoing thread-based fantasy RPG
What it do? Players do their thing based off dice scripts and 3.5e D&D as a rules baseline.

Throughout the week we shitpost at one another and on weekends we kill shit or surmount some form of obstacle. New players always welcome.

The party currently has a trebuchet, a series of cannons, and an airship with another series of cannons aimed at a floating black pyramid just out from the docks of Port Barry. Its not actually a pyramid, its an octahedron, but its half submerged. Some quick thinking from the resident Mage kept it from teleporting away and escaping, and now the party is looking to crack that bitch open and see what sorta toys are inside. And kill shit.

I need to have a larger dialogue with her about her purpose and goals and such, but I don't think there's enough time. She's perfect for logistical support on the airship, with her telekinesis and all

True. But living in a world where Undead monstrosities come in and suck your souls out isn't necessarily relaxing. Don't worry, she can paint before and after that

Yes. But I recall a certain specific Austrian Painter who served in the front lines for Germany in WW1. She's going places

I don't know how many we have. I'd love a few to operate ships and artillery while the combat infantry fight

Only while he's on the ship. While he's in the pyramid, an NPC will have to pilot (evidently it won't be this horse). I'm preparing for the possibility that an army will exit from the breach after we've entered and gone down a different hall. It's not necessarily going to happen, but you don't win by making a plan that relies on certain happenings. You win by preparing for the most likely sets of scenarios and making contingency plans in case things go wrong

Last we knew, it took several casters.

Just park the ship back by the tower. If the temple is anything like the tower, it probably has mechanisms by which the enemies are watching what goes on outside; if not that, the spellcasters in the temple are almost certainly on the lookout.

Just have them lining the perimeter with tower shields in tortoise formation, so they can stab anything that comes out.
Any kind of creature that would be able to get through that would be too big for arrows and too fast for canons.

I thought it was changed after that.
Anyway, why would she have a negative modifier on Wis? Sure, she's crazy and loathsome, but she's ridden through everything the /mlp/ fandom has to offer, and she's been to levels on the internet that other ponies wouldn't even be able to get back from.
Her Wis has to be at least 13, because she's been casting 2nd and 3rd lvl Blackguard spells all this time.

Except for the 3 forward mounted cannons, yes. The cannons are actually more defensive than anything, structured so that if under fire the ship can bank and then release a full volley.
>>45069
Its all tied to one. The ship can technically be fully manned by 2 people (one steering, one operating the cannons).
Also, It won't be necessary for Thez to be on the airship, she'll just airwalk to the eventual breach.
