RP Thread. Its D&D mixed with shitposting. Classic (flexible) rules, and more autism than you could shake a whole group of autists at, even if you did so autistically. New players area always welcome, whether continuing, one-time, or 'just shitposting'.
Welcome back to the ahem 'Bathhouse', a progressive thread that I'm sure plenty of anons wish would just fucking die already. What, its true,....
This particular beginning is heavily seasoned with enthusiasm and delight. Hot on the heels of killing a bunch of We Wuz, the party almost shattered for several reasons, both in-game and out. In spite of it all, the characters continue on their quest to do,... well,... stuff.
Trumpaladin has been gifted a quest from Lord John Elway. Infernius has been gifted a quest from the Fuhrer, Tracy wants to stab more shit, Torcuil is beginning to get clever with his use of Snek not like that you perv and Thez is thanking her lucky stars that she even exists anymore.
Torc decides to train Snek while his faggot gets artistic.
Can Snek get feats? Or no?
>>47682I'm good with it. Only one to start tho.
>>47678>Thez is thanking her lucky stars that she even exists anymoreI still kek at how ironic that sounds.
>>47682I suggest Point Blank Shot, or Exotic Weapon Proficiency.
Tracy feeds her birds once again.
>>47681 →>will be consideredMaybe I said too much... Hehe..
>>47683You know, perfectly abiding by the rules, and even at level 17, Trumpaladin is eligible for a very young Silver dragon as a cohort. At level 18, he'll be eligible for a very young Gold Dragon
>>47688I thought you had to be ebin lvl for that?
>>47688And when he's into lower epic levels, he'll be eligible for a young Gold dragon, or even a juvenile Silver Dragon
I tried drawing Mr. Snek, and I learned I can't draw a fucking gun for shit. Snek turned out pretty good though>>47685>>47683I think point blank shot would be best for Snek, especially since it opens up the way for more ranged feats.
>>47690What determines what cohorts you can attract and when?
Also, can Tracy make a profession check to open her Ranch now?
>>47689Well, the dragons I want are ones that share my alignment and these are also the ones that have the ability to shape shift, which limits it to the third (sort of tied for second) most ebin dragon (besides bullshit like the force dragon) in the entire set of dragons, and the most ebin dragon subspecies in the book. This means that the two dragon subspecies I am interested in have high modifiers.
>>47693Well, you have to have the leadership feat (and epic leadership to have leadership scores beyond level 25), and then leadership score is determined by character level plus charisma modifier and a few other modifiers, but the leadership score allows you to attract a cohort of up to a certain effective character level. You can have a cohort of up to two effective character levels lower than your current level, but never higher.
effective character level is not the same thing as hit die, since many races have features that make them more powerful or capable per hit die than others. The two lawful good dragon species have very high adjustment modifiers, so that means a pretty strict limit on the number of hit die he can have in a cohort.
A character can try to attract cohorts of specific races, classes, and alignments.
>>47695Can you attract outsiders as cohorts?
>>47696Several types of outsiders have adjustment scores so apparently yes
[1d20+16 = 23]>>47697>>47694Making Profession (animal/monster husbandry) check to open personal Monster Ranch in forest/grove.
>>47699... Does that pass?
>>47699It's not like Dimensional Anchor has a limited amount of time that it's effective or anything
>>47698I wouldn't mind having some hags, giants, or devils to help out around the place.
>>47701We'll just re-cast the spell.
Wait until all of the zombies get hungry and eat each other.
[1d6 = 1]
[11d8+14 = 56]
Please excuse my random rolling as I run some numbers
>>47702Do you have no interest in killing things?
You only get one cohort
>>47703>those shitty ass rollsDamn it
>>47704I'm not really that interested in attracting cohorts, but having NPCs to help-out around the ranch would be nice.
>>47699You will need to be explicit about what you envision, intend, and hope to affect by way of this Ranch. What is it called? The Ranch? This is not a "pass/fail" roll, this is an availability/suitability of land, resources, etc.
>>47701So very this
>>47706I hear there are mercenaries
>>47707I want her to have a small establishment in the woods, looking over a wide fenced portion of the grove which she's designated as her land. Animals she owns would be allowed to graze there.
I didn't think of a name, desu. I mostly wanted land, rather than shekels. I guess just saying "Tracy's Grazing Space: Trespassers will be stabbed on sight" was kind of my idea at first, but that feels kind of stupid in hindsight... I'll think of a name.
My primary goal was the acquisition of land and animals. The land being for her personal use primarily (ponies like having land).
>>47710Whatever pets she accumulated that she didn't feel like killing or otherwise found: they'd be allowed to live there semi-peacefully.
I thought of buying horses too, since they're not expensive.
>>47711But still, the monsters.
>>47712Land is the first step, but yes, I want monsters.
>>47713Basic/common livestock would be available more or less, as well as land for crops so as to design a fully sovereign and self-sustaining operation. Like a Shaolin Temple except more stabby.
>>47714It's good to have land, especially in a feudal system.
>>47716I said at the beginning that one of her original goals was to buy-up land to live on after she'd settled down.
Also, bring land-less in a feudal system is the epitome of cuckholdry.
I think I might want to have her investigate the far end of that grove first though. The way that Nithing was destroyed hints at some potentially annoying holy crap that I'd rather purge sooner than later.
>>47718Some potentially annoying crap you'd rather purge sooner than later?
You mean like a nest of lichs and phylacteries in the harbor?
>>47719I'll do that first.
>>47716Love that movie, btw.
*keens edges to prepare for next crawl*
>>47723I'm just saying, it really sucks that you can't Sneak Attack or Crit undead..
>>47724That's one of the biggest reasons I didn't want the concealment gone in the mummy fight... I was under the impression that you could sneak attack themAt least Sharpness as a magical sword feature works on themPerchance, do you know if undead can become exhausted?
>>47725No, they can't get tired: they don't even have Constitution scores.
[frustrates rogue noises]
>>47678>Thez is thanking her lucky stars that she even exists anymore
>>47726>>47726Just for the hell of it I decided to roll for Fae's treasure - since new NPCs are supposed to have a standard set of equipment when they join the party, and when it's a monster with a CR rating, you use the monster's treasure instead - and I ended up with a scroll that has two "waves of exhaustion" spells on it. A spell that does pretty much exactly what the Dragonne breathe weapon does
>>47729Pretty sure you don't roll starting gear for pre-existing NPCs.
>Breath weaponIt's a Sonic attack. Like that of a Howler or Yeth Hound.
>>47730She'd make an awesome cape though.
I want to level up already so Tracy can summon her servant..
>>47730You roll gear for new cohorts (though she's not a cohort)
>>47732I did the math and we have a very, very, very large number of mummies and lichs to kill before the next level
>Sonic affectEh, it doesn't say so in the entry, so I'm guessing for the purposes of whatever usually negates a sonic effect it's not one. It looks like a reference to Dragon breath weapons and lion roars, since it's a supernatural ability
>>47733Or it's not a sonic type that cannot be stopped by plugging the ears. Not mind-affecting
\r
>>47733Several creatures have roar/howl Ex abilities: they're considered to be Sonic weapons.
>>47736Okay. I don't really care what you call it. There is absolutely nothing in the entry for either one that suggests a supernatural sonic attack is anything other than a kind of breath weapon, and if it isn't, I don't give a shit, because I like the idea of a hybrid brass dragon having its own breath weapon and I don't care about pedantry for a fantasy game
>>47735>Not mind-affectingIt's a Charisma-based will save though, so it'd still effectively have the same mechanic.
It's definitely not a Breath Weapon: it'd allow a reflex save in that case.
>Covering your earsFew creatures have that ability, but I doubt any creature unable to hear the roar would be affected. It probably wouldn't affect any deaf creature, or a sonic-immune creature like a Destrachan (fucking love Destrachans btw).
>>47734Oh don't make that face
You'd get a new one in a month.
>>47738It probably would've been listed as a spell-like ability if it used any component other than Sonic, so it probably follows the basic rules of Sonic abilities:
https://dnd-wiki.org/wiki/SRD:Sonic_Attack
>>47738>It would allow a reflex save if it were a breath weaponDid you even read the entry? It says:
"Some breath weapons allow a Fortitude save or a Will save instead of a Reflex save"
>I doubt any creature unable to hear the roar would be affected. It probably wouldn't affect any deaf creature, or a sonic-immune creature like a Destrachan (fucking love Destrachans btw)All of that shit you made up. None of that is in the entry.
>>47740Did you bother to read the entry for Dragonne? It's an Su - a supernatural ability. Not an Sp or spell like ability. Like a breathe weapon.
>>47741Yeah, I'm just typing out of memory.. It is an Su ability now that I look at it.
I guess it's not far-fetched to treat it as a breath weapon, since only Dragonnes are immune to it, like every other creature with that ability. I wonder what energy it'd be based off.
>this grammar
That's a good sign that it's time for me to sleep..
>>47742Sonic is an energy type, so maybe both at the same time
>>47743I should probably sleep for once
>>47744Considering that it's will-based, it really doesn't matter if you call it a breath weapon or not. The Roar by itself is it's own ability. I just thought it'd be treated just like a howler's roar.
Sonic attacks are great. Too bad so few of them are ally exclusive. Great spread though.
>>47745>Not ally exclusiveShhh! Don't let GM find out, because I want to use this ability in the future
It's a 6 point strength and Dexterity drain for all creatures within 30 feet that fail their saving throws. If I cast Eagle's splendor on self and mount - or if she casts Eagle's splendor on herself when she levels up - then the save DC on her roar rises by another two points
>>47746It isn't though.
That's why I've never bothered to summon a Howler: it'd exhaust everyone but Tracy and Thez.
>>47747Neither the dwelf nor the pony are outsiders
>>47748Tracy is in nightmare form. Thez counts as one because of her Perfect Self class feature.
>>47749I think that was what was bannished though
>Tracy is in nightmare formCreatures with alternate forms retain the type and subtype of the original form. Do you want to be specially vulnerable to banes and various anti-evil outsider spells? Because that's the only difference it makes
>>47750I assumed she counted as one because everything else was the same, but I don't really know or care. The subtype isn't really that relevant for me.
>>47751Either way, she could always just change back into a pony if there's issues.
If I burn/blow-up a building or other lage populated area, and a bunch of NPCs die at once, do I still get XP for killing them indirectly?
>>47733>we have a very, very, very large number of mummies and lichs to kill before the next levelThen we'll just have to re-kill them faster.
Is the party going to try to smack some info out of Kang Doot before the crawl?
>>47754You'll need to supply more hypothetical context. As you have worded it, no.
>>47756It was mostly a joke to stir-up conversation.
But hypothetically, if you set fire to a building to kill an enemy inside, does that count as your kill?
>>47757Tbh, I don't really care
was just shitposting to get a reaction...
>>47756Now I have a question along those lines.
If Torc somehow set the dust on fire triggering the explosion, how much of the dungeon would that bypass?
Also, can Snek get a chameleon ring?
>>47759The dungeon is made of glassteel, so it's pretty much indestructible to any means except the ship's cannons (your meteor swarm didn't do shit to it, remember).
Remind me to pick-up the shards of material from where we entered, so Tracy can make some collector's-edition shanks.
>>47759>chameleon ringIf you manage to get one, he could wear it on his tail.
You could also just cast invisibility on him, if you wanted. Tracy could also make him a Hat of Disguise, to emulate the effect.
>>47761Snek with hat is /bestmeme/, btw.
>>47762Snek w/ hat thread when?
>>47759Chameleon rings require 13 days of Disguise Self and Invisibility to fabricate.
>>47763>whenSoon...
>>47761>ring or hatYeah, I guess a hat would be good, looks pretty good on sneks for some reason.
But I really wanted that +10 on hide checks
>>47760I know the fire won't do shit to the temple, but the same isn't quite true for everything inside.
>>47764>I really wanted that +10 on hide checksYou and me both…
He'd need it, because he's YUGE, so he takes a -8 penalty on Hide checks.
I'm not sure if he retains his monster skill points after getting class levels, but a Giant Constrictor normally has 10 ranks in Hide.
>>47766But he gets a +4 species bonus for hide checks, so I don't know if that means the -8 doesn't apply to him or what.
>>47767He get's both: -8 size penalty and +4 racial bonus.
>>47768That's not good for a rogue
>>47769Well, he's only lvl 1.
>>47769>>47770He's not even first level yet, he's level 0
>>47771But doesn't he have 13 levels in snek and probably a familiar HD bonus?
>>47772Do your creature stats really stack with your character lvls?
>>47771>level 0What does that mean, btw?
>>47772Yes and no. He's an 11HD creature, but hasn't gained sufficient experience to advance to level 1 as a Rogue. As a familiar, he gets +9 to his Natural Armor, and has a de-facto intelligence of 14. As a familiar also, he has a default HP of 1/2 Torcuil.
BTW, Torcuil gets +2 on his bluff checks.
Level 0 means that the character has begun to learn the basics of the class, and gets minimal (very) abilities of the class.
Thez for example, declared level 0 Sorcerer. Because of her Charisma bonus she can cast 1 bonus 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th level spell per day, but she only
knows one 0 level spell (Dancing Lights). So she can cast Dancing Lights a bunch of times.
In a comparable manner, Snek would have minimal initial skill points to apply (level one is (8+Int)x4, probably <1/2. Additionally he wouldn't yet be able to sneak attack, etc.
>>47773When determining character level, yes, you stack racial hit die of a monster with its character levels
>>47774I think that means snek is not yet a rogue
Definitely claiming a Silver or Gold dragon as a waifu
>>47772Do characters with PC class levels even get the bonus HD?
>>47775Is there any drawback to taking zero levels?
I might have Tracy late a 0 lvl in Sorcerer then, so she can get Mage Hand and lvl up as an Arcane Trickster.
Could Snek get a top hat with the Shadow enchantment?
>>47776Trump is still with the party yes?
"Uhm,... can I ask you something?" Thez asks, attempting nonchalance, but failing cuz Trump's sense motive is absurd. She wants something.
>>47778Both canon and ITT, I'm going with "no". I allowed it for Fae cuz otherwise she's cannon fodder, but Tracy is already more than uber.
>>47779Taking a 0 level commits the character to advancing in that level upon next level advancement, which may have its own variety of consequences.
Now for the part you're all going to like (mostly).
When it comes to skill checks, there's an optional rule I've been employing liberally without saying anything.
Any time a character is making a skill check against a DC that is -20 or more of their rank, they can opt to take a 10 on their dice roll as long as they are not engaged in combat. The idea is that the task of so simple compared to their developed skill that they could do it with their eyes closed. Tying one's shoes would be a DC1 rope use check, where its so basic that the chance of failure is nil.
>>47782"Do you,... still have that robe with all the pockets? I was thinking,... if you weren't using it,... I mean if you are using it then forget I said anything. But if you're not,... I don't know,... maybe you'd consider trading for something?"
GM, can you answer that question about the Hecatoncheires?
>>47784What's the DC for tying someone else's shoes together?
>>47783I just want to know if he'll allow it. I could always make the hat now, and enchant it later
>>47785"Yes, I believe it's on Fae's bags. I placed most of Kiynen's horde in it, so hold on while I get it and remove those items"
>>47787I think it's only armor that can have Shadow.
…But if not, I'll gladly load Tracy up with magick socks, panties, garters., etc.
>>47786Depends on the circumstances. Is one hiding under their table at a noisy tavern? Is it on a barren street while the person is busy heading somewhere or other?
>HecatoncheiresWhich part?
>>47789>not dimensionalYes they are
>>47785>excited dwelf noises
*carefully hides items in room's dresser drawers, placing books about Football and Income Tax over top to deter Tracy from rummaging*
>>47790>covering up a pony with pantiesHARAM
>>47791*Is now wondering what is going on*
>>47791>Which part?The part about the blood-forged weapons.
Is deity blood a special material for craft? Refer to:
>>47417 →I was wondering if Tracy could use Kefka's body parts to make a special weapon later on, because that monster description implied that it had properties that made it deadly to some monsters.
I thought it'd make a great tempering fluid for an awesome mace or sword.
>>47792>talks about sharing loot
>>47794Yeah, I thought about that right after I posted it.
Uh...Tracy can buy horses with some of it I guess
>>47795I'm in no hurry.
Just don't get bent out of shape if I want to take other things.
>>47793First off, they're not immune. Heca,... those things regenerate against any weapon
other than blood-forged or Good-aligned weapons. For two, those things are OP AF. I'm a little astonished that someone bothered to create them
and then make them official.
Having said, maybe but IDK. Its not something I expected to have to consider.
>>47792Several things. Currently Thez is wearing a simple monk's fighting outfit (a Gi, for the martial artists in the periphery). As a monk, she takes penalties if she wears armor or is otherwise encumbered, but an article like a robe can be utilized without penalties. For two, Thez is a knob about some things, and is planning for carrying all the material components (that she doesn't need) that she'll need as a sorcerer.
>>47797Um, okay. What's the rating on her amulet of the mighty fists, and/or does she have an extra lying around?
>>47796>If I want to take other thingsThe only reason I thought to hide it was because of the possibility that
all of it would fall in the "I take things I don't actually want just because klepto"
>>47797Since it's the blood of a Chaotic Ebil demigod, I thought it'd make for a ebin murder-mace, maybe with specific powers, if I can find the time for her to work on it.
> I'm a little astonished that someone bothered to create them and then make them official. something I expected to have to consider.Ikr. Epin-level monsters are terrifying. Some are even rank-0 deities, like Phaethons, Atropals, or Infernals: all apocalypse-tier.
>>47798The amulet is part of her belt and can't be removed, along with the amulet of non-detection. Its an heirloom item associated with mastery of her former/native Monk monastery. She doesn't have an extra, and its +5 (meaning, requiring at least a 15th level caster, and 50 days to fabricate).
>>47799Just one of those - which aren't unique creatures - could easily walk through most of the Infernal lords. Soros would get his ass handed to him for example.
>>47800It looks to me like the publications for epic-level monsters, classes and spells were mostly made for high-level campaigns that focused on insane missions, like theomachia or apocalypse-reversal, from what I've gathered. Even the existance of Abominations seems to be put in the game for "let's go kill a literal god" kind of campaigns.
>>47801Well, the challenge ratings are based off "The level that a 4-player party would theoretically need to be to vanquish". Hecs are 57th? Absurd. Thez only got where she's at because she spent an excessive amount of time soloing and not sharing xp. I can't imagine ranking
4 players to that point,
let alone past it.
>>47802It has superior multi-weapon fighting, and it has a
hundred arms. Nothing but an actual god of war, with 50 ranks in Fighter (maybe, if he's lucky) could best it in combat.
It's based off of those mythical ancient greek primordial giants who lived before the gods or even the titans: they could tear mountains in two with their strength.
>>47803It's based off of dark and elder things alright, but I don't think Greek mythology is the closest comparison
>>47803The other ebin monsters are freaky too.
An Atropal is like every abortion every woman ever had, coming back for revenge on the living. Infernals eat Balors and Pit Fiends' faces as an afternoon snack. A Phaethon is like a walking nuclear explosion.
>>47804>The Hecatoncheires were giant creatures in Greek mythology. Their name means "hundred - handed ones", and apart from a hundred hands of unfathomable strength, they also had fifty heads.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hecatoncheires
>>47804>(1)Wait, who's speaking now?
>>47803Right. Meaning, the party would pretty much have to have divine rank of their own in order to concern themselves with it, unless it was used as a Deus Ex Machina-type, story that isn't so much vanquished as it is defeated, sealed, cast into other realms, etc. As a looming (pun intended) threat, sure but as a legit fight? I say again, absurd.
>>47808According to wiki sources, they're the oldest Abominations: born of proto-deities early in the multiverse's history. They're older than most gods, unlike most other Abominations, who are usually the offspring of gods.
>>47807Nobully; it could be Lenos, it could be Anon
griffonfilly, it could be Sad Alex, Taylor, or any number of possibilities.
>>47809Again, I'm just seeing something absurd that no reasonable party could/would ever think of actually trying to kill, and if they
are I question their creativity as players and that of the GM, as well as the authenticity and legitimacy of their campaign desu.
We were talking about God-granted quests earlier; this is a
God quest.
>>47808>party would pretty much have to have divine rank of their own in order to concern themselves with itYeah. It looks like a challenge for a team of Divine Minions, with Epic Prestige classes.
>>47810>God questDo you mean God Quest as in instant-Geas, or God Quest as in "prove yourself!" ?
>>47811I mean a quest
for Gods
>>47812Ah.
Yeah, and not just rank 1-5 demigods like Kefka; actual gods.
>>47803>>47803>>47809>>47811>>47813For you:
Nyarlathotep . . . the crawling chaos . . . I am the last . . . I will tell the audient void. . . .
I do not recall distinctly when it began, but it was months ago. The general tension was horrible. To a season of political and social upheaval was added a strange and brooding apprehension of hideous physical danger; a danger widespread and all-embracing, such a danger as may be imagined only in the most terrible phantasms of the night. I recall that the people went about with pale and worried faces, and whispered warnings and prophecies which no one dared consciously repeat or acknowledge to himself that he had heard. A sense of monstrous guilt was upon the land, and out of the abysses between the stars swept chill currents that made men shiver in dark and lonely places. There was a daemoniac alteration in the sequence of the seasons—the autumn heat lingered fearsomely, and everyone felt that the world and perhaps the universe had passed from the control of known gods or forces to that of gods or forces which were unknown.
And it was then that Nyarlathotep came out of Egypt. Who he was, none could tell, but he was of the old native blood and looked like a Pharaoh. The fellahin knelt when they saw him, yet could not say why. He said he had risen up out of the blackness of twenty-seven centuries, and that he had heard messages from places not on this planet. Into the lands of civilisation came Nyarlathotep, swarthy, slender, and sinister, always buying strange instruments of glass and metal and combining them into instruments yet stranger. He spoke much of the sciences—of electricity and psychology—and gave exhibitions of power which sent his spectators away speechless, yet which swelled his fame to exceeding magnitude. Men advised one another to see Nyarlathotep, and shuddered. And where Nyarlathotep went, rest vanished; for the small hours were rent with the screams of nightmare. Never before had the screams of nightmare been such a public problem; now the wise men almost wished they could forbid sleep in the small hours, that the shrieks of cities might less horribly disturb the pale, pitying moon as it glimmered on green waters gliding under bridges, and old steeples crumbling against a sickly sky.
I remember when Nyarlathotep came to my city—the great, the old, the terrible city of unnumbered crimes. My friend had told me of him, and of the impelling fascination and allurement of his revelations, and I burned with eagerness to explore his uttermost mysteries. My friend said they were horrible and impressive beyond my most fevered imaginings; that what was thrown on a screen in the darkened room prophesied things none but Nyarlathotep dared prophesy, and that in the sputter of his sparks there was taken from men that which had never been taken before yet which shewed only in the eyes. And I heard it hinted abroad that those who knew Nyarlathotep looked on sights which others saw not.
It was in the hot autumn that I went through the night with the restless crowds to see Nyarlathotep; through the stifling night and up the endless stairs into the choking room. And shadowed on a screen, I saw hooded forms amidst ruins, and yellow evil faces peering from behind fallen monuments. And I saw the world battling against blackness; against the waves of destruction from ultimate space; whirling, churning; struggling around the dimming, cooling sun. Then the sparks played amazingly around the heads of the spectators, and hair stood up on end whilst shadows more grotesque than I can tell came out and squatted on the heads. And when I, who was colder and more scientific than the rest, mumbled a trembling protest about “imposture” and “static electricity”, Nyarlathotep drave us all out, down the dizzy stairs into the damp, hot, deserted midnight streets. I screamed aloud that I was not afraid; that I never could be afraid; and others screamed with me for solace. We sware to one another that the city was exactly the same, and still alive; and when the electric lights began to fade we cursed the company over and over again, and laughed at the queer faces we made.
I believe we felt something coming down from the greenish moon, for when we began to depend on its light we drifted into curious involuntary formations and seemed to know our destinations though we dared not think of them. Once we looked at the pavement and found the blocks loose and displaced by grass, with scarce a line of rusted metal to shew where the tramways had run. And again we saw a tram-car, lone, windowless, dilapidated, and almost on its side. When we gazed around the horizon, we could not find the third tower by the river, and noticed that the silhouette of the second tower was ragged at the top. Then we split up into narrow columns, each of which seemed drawn in a different direction. One disappeared in a narrow alley to the left, leaving only the echo of a shocking moan. Another filed down a weed-choked subway entrance, howling with a laughter that was mad. My own column was sucked toward the open country, and presently felt a chill which was not of the hot autumn; for as we stalked out on the dark moor, we beheld around us the hellish moon-glitter of evil snows. Trackless, inexplicable snows, swept asunder in one direction only, where lay a gulf all the blacker for its glittering walls. The column seemed very thin indeed as it plodded dreamily into the gulf. I lingered behind, for the black rift in the green-litten snow was frightful, and I thought I had heard the reverberations of a disquieting wail as my companions vanished; but my power to linger was slight. As if beckoned by those who had gone before, I half floated between the titanic snowdrifts, quivering and afraid, into the sightless vortex of the unimaginable.
Screamingly sentient, dumbly delirious, only the gods that were can tell. A sickened, sensitive shadow writhing in hands that are not hands, and whirled blindly past ghastly midnights of rotting creation, corpses of dead worlds with sores that were cities, charnel winds that brush the pallid stars and make them flicker low. Beyond the worlds vague ghosts of monstrous things; half-seen columns of unsanctified temples that rest on nameless rocks beneath space and reach up to dizzy vacua above the spheres of light and darkness. And through this revolting graveyard of the universe the muffled, maddening beating of drums, and thin, monotonous whine of blasphemous flutes from inconceivable, unlighted chambers beyond Time; the detestable pounding and piping whereunto dance slowly, awkwardly, and absurdly the gigantic, tenebrous ultimate gods—the blind, voiceless, mindless gargoyles whose soul is Nyarlathotep.
I'll be back tonight, if anyone is still on. Later my dudes
>>47803Im gonna need a bigger strength bonus.
>>47819>>47814I want to grapple a rank 5 deity.
>>47820Gib Tracy the corpse when you're done.
>>47820Infernius should've been Strength Domain, desu.
>>47775>14 intNice, smart Snek
>blogpost intensifies
Funny story! Apparently I was supposed to work this morning, but due to a miscommunication (rather, my lack of seeking confirmation) I got my first no-call, no-show of my whole LIFE today,.... Also I'm back for the duration (weekend).
>>47825Fug... Sorry, m8..
>>47825I can imagine how much that sucksI wish I had a job...
>>47826Its actually not a big deal. I'm on light duty or injury, and I have an absolutely spotless record otherwise (in 3 years I've called in once) and my boss knows it, and lack of communication has never even been a consideration. In fact, while I've neglected it in recent months, I used to have a monthly e-mail correspondence with my boss just because I have serious social anxiety but am full of emergent ideas, many of which have helped to improve and shape aspects of the company's position and performance. For example, I introduced him to Simon Sinek, which has had a tangible impact (I wonder if corporate and foremen might have gone to one of his seminars?) on the overview of the company. I can get away with it scot-free in this case because I'm the fukkin' man at my job
>>47822Ill give you what i cant eat.
>>47828Red pill your boss.
>>47830I'm working on it, but this is an ultra-rural community that doesn't take kindly to anyone who isn't a 3rd+ generation of the "hooplah" family.
>>47833Oh, don't even get me started, its part of my diabolical 1488 scheme. Major cities are largely lost. Its largely (only?) by fomenting the awareness
and viability (economically, socially, etc.) of smaller communities that the white race has any chance at all desu. These are communities that
its not too late to redpill on muslims (not exclusively) and who havve EVERY incentive to avoid and act against further decay of the US.
Will we be playing tonight?
Tracy feeds her birds again.
>>47838They're getting kinda big. They're about 12' sitting down, (cuz there's not much mass to the legs) and they're beginning to show coloration. One (I forget the name at the moment and I'll lose focus if I look it up, but its within the theme) is beginning to show an almost fluorescence, trending toward violet or blue.
>>47839"Who's a pretty ~birdie?"
*gently pets fluff*
They were named Sammy and Bunny.
They show the dopiest enthusiasm before Tracy even enters the room. They can't smell or "specifically" detect that its Tracy, but there's a consistency to her presentation. Preceeding Tracy's arrival would be a series of incredibly minute details that would otherwise go unnoticed to a conscious biped (read: hooman) but which animals take to readily. This is why I contest the intelligence scale wrt animals, but I digress. I do admit that there is a significant possibility that atypical stats, behavior, intelligence, etc. that is observable IRL animals might not exclusive to "player" interaction. Simply, I've always observed highly intelligent dogs, cats, etc. Having said, I have always (almost) observed them amongst exceptional individuals.
>>47834>tfw when no QT 3.14 aryan gf
>>47841So each of those birds which Tracy got for free are not only able to almost equal Fae in one on one combat, but they're magic beasts as well?
>>47843Dont even starr bro. Some of us Dont have any animal companions
And you got fae for free.
>>47841Tracy dumps out out her bag of ground elephant meat a lightly-cooked egg yolks and watches happily as they eat, with a slight blush about her cheeks.
>>47843>magicalNo. Rocs are animals. You're thinking of Giant Eagles.
GM just thinks animals are smarter than the game-makers give them credit for, and is building character in their subtle responses.
>>47844Go talk to your doggo.
>>47844A Paladin's mount is an essential feature of the class, and a Dragonne is a CR 7 with 19 strength, whereas a Roc is a CR 9 with 34 strength and is two size categories larger with corresponding increases in damage
>>47845I probably cant. The juice are blocking hitler.
>>47843Not hardly. They're dopey, clumsy, and awkward. They're a liability in combat. But they are cute, if not ginormous.
>>47842Desu, my mate is not aryan. She
is of royal, "pacific" ancestry though. Xp
>>47845>doggoThis. If I wanted to be authentic, he'd have pissed and shit on everything cuz "is he even let outside?". Mental note, have Bones check on him 3x a day, just in case.
What Infernius now has is a tiny dog that 'almost' pees its self whenever he shows up, but doesn't know how to calm down.
>>47845>Go talk to your DoggoThis. Alejandro Menendez-Alvaro needs attention
>>47846The standard mount for a paladin is a heavy warhorse: you got an upgrade. She even speaks common and as class levels.
>>47847Try Commune With Nature.
Then see if he's worth Awakening.
>>47850Don't give animals names they can't remember. His name is Sparkle.
>>47851I dont think you understand the kikes are blocking hitlers powers i dont even know how i can still use healing magic.
>>47853>kikes are blocking hitlers powersSince when? You were able to break Thez's petrification.
>>47853>>47854They're not blocking his power, they're blocking his communication.
>>47854Gm said they were.
>>47851True, but she's still only CR10ish after features, not a match for two CR 9s
>names they can't rememberOh please. Alejandro Menendez-Alvaro is easily remembered
>>47857>not a matchIt's not a contest.
>>47855Why wouldn't they block his powers too?
>>47855When did this start?
>>47859Because I had dubs for one. For two, because Hitler is too awesome and undeniable. His blessings cannot be blocked by kikes, even if his words might be suppressed.
>>47860This started back when I was first called to speak for the Fuhrer and balked cuz mein deutsch ist schrect and cuz I don't feel I could accurately portray him as a god.
>>47859>>47856>>47853>>47847Just go have hot shower sex with your waifu like your God commanded you two then feed your dog some tacos
>>47861Great.
>>47849Id take a Celtic girl desu, when you say Pacific do you mean asian or islander?
>>47839What does the other one look like?
>>47863We both know what he meant m8.
Can we get some info out of Kang Doot now?
>>47863>>47864I'm not Hitler in this case, but some showers 'glitter'. Just a random interpretive thought.
>>47864Islands ftw>>47865Slightly pink desu
>>47866Stop with the cocky attitude to hermeneutics and go now!
\r
>>47868Very tropical. Like the birds of Eden.
>>47870They are going to end up deep blue and red-pink when they get older.
It'll be beautiful
>>47870Not intentionally, but metaphysically so distantly related.
>>47872Fug
>>47873I'm not opposed to tropical Rocs. It fits their theme.
>>47872Unfortunately he's not on at all at the moment. He was on earlier today though
>>47874Wrong. Just, wrong. Rocs are cold weather animals and anything else just ain't right
>>47877>Rocs are cold weather animalsDid you read the Legend Of Sinbad? They would've lived around the Indian Ocean.
>>47878But they lived in high up mountains, which would be cold
>>47877I know you are trying to do damage control and all but could you stop being disengenous and say they truth?
I mean i already know that hitler wants infernuis baby dead.
>>47879Then I guess it's just magick then.
>>47881Nah, it's because the plumage if the younger animals is lighter than that of mature adults
>>47880Oh hush. He only commanded her to take a shower? Has she even showered once thus far? Hell, I should probably take a shower
>>47885You could cast Augury to get the correct interpretation.
>>47886You also have that Phylactery of faithfulness.
>>47887>>47886Atlas would need to be online for that.
>>47888Trips confirm...
But would a god be kind of annoyed if a mortal asked him questions about a command he already gave him?
>>47889Most likely. But ....
>>47891God's don't like having to say things twice...
It's scary when they're angry...
>>47888There's a reason Atlas delegated most duties to his Admins (who are always on)
Tracy brushes her birds, cleaning the dirt and whatnot out of their downy fluff.
>>47877>discord-fagging this hard>>47890No Kang Doot info. Attempting to read/meld with his mind result in momentary insanity for the person. Comprehension spells are ineffective.
[4d20 = 37]>>47897Kill undead socialist
>>47896*Casts Speak with dead.*
[4d20 = 67]>>47897Try again with less shitty rolls
Where are the characters?
>>47897>>47899Where is your character?
>>47898>This spell does not affect a corpse that has been turned into an undead creature.
If we can't get anything else out of Kang Doot, can we make another crawl?
>>47902Well fuck. I take the kangs clothes/wrappings.
>>47904Tracy has his arms already.
Taking his skull.
>>47905(((Goybook Memes)))
>>47907I found it on (((Google))).
>>47908So i just found a video that shared some very disturbing info.
Im probably going to make a thread on it.
I never asked what Int bonus Tracy's headband gave her.
*fills body with chocolate ice-cream*
>>47913Give me about thirty minutes.
GM, could I decrease crafting time with memes?
>>47917No, but you could decrease XP cost of spells.
>>47918>>47917>The players are more interested in arts and craft than murder-hoboing
>>47918Oh..
Could you refer to
>>47912 ?
>>47920>murder-hoboingIt's more murder-farming, desu. We haven't really moved around that much.
>>47918Fine
>>47920I still wanna know what effect triggering the dust would do
>>47922Why do you like item making more than fighting?
>>47923He already told us. It would kill us, and destroy any loot
>>47925It wouldn't be good
>>47927Thanks for the great description m8
>>47929There would be a flash explosion, which could possibly destroy items worth taking, would alert bigger dangers to our presence, and could destroy the mechanisms to operate the door at the end of the hallway
>Skills: For each skill in which either the master or the familiar has ranks, use either the normal skill ranks for an animal of that type or the master’s skill ranks, whichever are better. In either case, the familiar uses its own ability modifiers. Regardless of a familiar’s total skill modifiers, some skills may remain beyond the familiar’s ability to use.So, what does this mean?
>>47930Ah, that clears it up.
Where is everyone?
>>47912I realized I haven't been applying Tracy's Int modifier to any of her Search checks.
>>47931Tracy is on her way to the entrance of the temple.
>>47932I guess Torc heads there too
>>47936Looks like the party is here then.
>>47938Torc, did you ever consider using Illuminati cards for memes?
>>47939Considering I have neve heard of them before now? No
>>47942Classic /pol/ meme.
>>47942>>47943They predict the future.
>>47948>>47949What company made theese? Where they chosen or bad goys?
Fug, I'm passing out at the keyboard.
>>47951You okay? We can break for tonight if you want
Found an idea for an Ebil Goddess.
[1d20+27 = 31]>>47954Trumpaladin stares down pony, believing she has dark secrets
Sense motive, cause what else would you do while staring?
>>47958She's looking for shards of glassteel to make custom shanks.
>>47959*continues staring down pony, because what else can he do while GM isn't here*
>>47960"I KNOW YOUR SECRETS PONY!", Trumpaladin loudly Shitposts
>>47961>>47960"Infernuis want your opinion on suits."
>>47962"Looking to join us refined professionals are you? What do you want to know about suits?"
>>47957Trumpaladin may need to summon a nice goddess to counter her
>>47964Glimmer is neither nice nor a goddess. You don't just "summon" gods either.
Also
>Implying making the Port a battlefield between two deities would do anything but kill us all
>>47963"Why people wear them? And do we have suit maker in town?"
>>47966"I think it's mostly a hoo-man thing. Only a handful of stallions ever wore them in Equestria."
>>47966"It's a signal of professionalism, of refinement. Of belonging to the higher classes, be ye businessman, intelligentsia, or other professional. But besides this, it's stylish, reasonably comfortable, and wears well under a variety of outdoor temperatures.
If there is no tailor, I'll make my own factory"
>>47968"Only the most stylish and refined ponies, of course"
>>47969*Leg-humping intensifies*
"I must say it feels rather nice."
>>47970[Happy pony noises]
*Purrs in pony*
>>47972>>47971"I've noticed you're rather fond of my slacks..."
*mild disgust*
*shakes leg lightly*
>>47969"Me want nice hugo boss suit."
>>47973"It's what's underneath that really counts.* *Rubs leg*
"Did you ever consider being a nudist like? I find clothing to be rather oppressive, so I only wear it on occasion."
>>47974"Excellent choice. May I ask what prompted your decision to seek formal attire?"
>>47975*looks at pony, unsure of what to say at first*
"Clothing is a signal of your position within society and your relation to it. That's why even ponies wear it sometimes. It's not that I don't want to show off what underneath"
>>47976"Isn't that what cutie marks are for?"
*Wiggles rump*
>>47977"Cutie marks are similar, but clothing also marks occasions and earned rank"
*rubs cute little pony cutie marks, which seems to have evolved slightly from a "Vampire's Kiss" appearance, to a more refined "Lord of War" Cage"
>>47976"Well me want to look nice for thez"
*blushes*
>>47979"D'aww. A suit can do that. You always want to look your best when taking the girl to the dance - or carrying her across the threshold"
>>47978Or so it's changed in his mind
>>47980"Brad,thez is planning wedding,me want to invite you and tracy."
[sad pony noises]
"... I want us to have our wedding soon ~too..."
>>47982*blushing slightly*
"D'aww, thanks. What are you planning?"
>>47983"Aww"
*picks up pony, and cradles her in his arms*
"You'll get a wedding too, little pony"
*pets*
>>47984"Thez say something about a ball."
>>47985*holds pony close to self*
"A ball you say? Now that could work"
*makes note to self to try to do something grander*
Torc somehow finds his way to the rest of the party, with Mr. Snek following close behind.
"Anyone wanna make a quick trip to Gnome-land-ia in the morning? I need to teleport over and make an order before we attempt the temple again."
>>47987"Why though? We've got a dungeon to crawl"
>>47984"Make it soon.. our foal will be here in just a few months, and I want to be settled in long before that."
*Faggot goes to bed*
>>47988"I need a new cannon for my ship. That way if anything too big comes out, we shoot it."
>>47989Night faggot
>>47989*contemplates how it would look if waifu is visibly pregnant in wedding photos*
"That is a good point"
>>47990"You have 13 functioning ones though, besides our collective power and all. Can't it wait?"
>>47991"They must be intwined or something, cause if I turn the lever while one's broken they all suffer the same fate. And who knows what that would do to the ship."
>>47992"You can't just remove the one from the sequence and bypass it, allowing the other 13 to function?"
>>47986"It will be yuge."
>>47987"You want me to go?"
>>47989Night.
>>47994Torc shakes his head
"Not as far as I'm aware, gnomish shit is hard. I don't understand why it's such a big deal. I have... acquaitances that should be able to get the plans to a smith. I'll I'd have to do is bring a sketch of the cannon and drop it off."
>>47995"If you'd like."
>>47995>>47992"I mean, it's not like we killed four lichs two days ago and all four will respawn within a few days if they haven't already. It's not like Dimensional anchor has a limited period of time it's active, and it's not like we've got a hell of a lot more rooms to clear before we get to the center of the nest. By all means, take your time. Do your shopping now. The enemy will be grateful"
>>47997"You have point."
>>47996"Can we wait untill after invasion? Or is it urgent?"
>>47998"I guess it could wait, but we won't be able to do any further damage to the temple. No new access points if needed."
>>47998"Infernius, when this city was attacked, it was attacked by a wide number of varieties of undead with four lichs visibly leading. It was organized by someone larger, more powerful, with many underlings. Thus far in the Pyramid we have encountered Allips, varg-thingies, wraiths, and what seemed to be an independently acting mummy lord. We haven't yet encountered even the beginning of who organized this attack. But don't think for a moment their leaders are not in there.
How long do you think it will be before they realize we've penetrated their citadel - they probably already have. Do you think that maybe they are just waiting until sunset - and sun light is toxic to many undead - to lead a forary into town to terroize and kill? Do you think they may come up with the idea to set a trap for us in the pyramid? How long do you think it will be before one of them realizes that all they have to do is get a high level spell caster to cast "dispell magic" to break the dimensional anchor and teleport away from us. Unless of course,
they want to be in the harbor. Time is of the essence"
"We know who is behind attack,the kikes."
>>48001"We know that they are organized. And an organized enemy, is a dangerous enemy. Very dangerous"
>>48000"They clever so they probably know we are here. They most likely set traps already."
>>48003"We must go in and kill them, before they have the chance to kill us and all of the aryan race. We must release mankind from this curse, and soon. Be strong. Be clever. And above all, act quickly. Because they will be"
>>48005"Is this the part where I ask not what my country can do for me, but what can I do for my country?"
>>48006"That's the spirit!
Perchance do you want to wear a cloak of resistance? It can help protect you from curses and effects many of these undead have."
>>48007"Considering I don't really feel like dieing again? Sure, thanks Trump."
>>48005"Protection of the entire white race is my priority. Not just tge aryans."
>>48008"Me wish torc was still here."
>>48008"here you go"
*hands a cloak of resistance to Torcuil, since there are like two that haven't been used*
>>48009"That's the spirit!"
>>48010"You can almost hear him at times..."
\r
>>48010"I'm quite literally standing right next to you"
>>48011"STOP TELLING PEOPLE I'M DEAD"
"Oh Danny boy the pipes the pipes are calling
From glen to glen and down the mountain side..."
*starts crying*
>>48011>>48013"Me just wish me could see him one more time."
*hugs brad*
*cries*
>>48013>>48014"I fucking swear, I'm rig-
Nevermind, lets try this."
Torc grabs Snek, turning him into a staff and smacks Infernius with it.
>>48015*scratches area that got smacked*
"Me hate mosquitos."
>>48014*hugs back*
"I do too...
I'm gonna miss the little wanker"
>>48016"I do too... Tell me if you need me to cure a disease. I'd hate to lose another..."
*starts sobbing again*
>>48017>>48016"I sometimes really hate you both"
>>48018*hugs imagined representation of his lost comrade*
"I hate you too buddy" *sniff* "I hate you too"
>>48018Alright. Because Snek would be neither rigid nor would his body weight be localized during a "Snek strike", I'm thinking that it would be ineffective as a melee attack, but
would allow Snek to grapple as a free action upon contact.
>>48010"Did something happen to him?"
>>48018"If only torc would have used higher quality memes mayve he would still be with us."
>>48020"He dead remember thez?"
>>48019"You guys are fucking impossible."
>>48020I'll accept that
"They think I'm dead"
>>48021"YOU GUYS ARE THE ONES WHO DIDN'T NOTICE ME DYING ON THE FLOOR"
>>48022"Yeah, and then he was back like 2 minutes later. I mean, did he die again?"
>>48024"Yes. He also died when a mummy cursed him..."
>>48024"He never come back thez, he dead."
>>48023"That gust of wind just now, it sounded loke a bitch."
>>48025"I know, I watched it happen. It was tragically comical. But then he was back alive again."
>>48026"Is this some kind of joke?"
>>48028"To them it is, and I don't appriciate my death being called 'tragically comical'"
>>48028*leans in to thez*
*whispers*
"Go with it."
>>48030"I heard that you bitch"
>>48028"I didn't know he'd failed his saving throw...
I don't think it's comical. Him getting mauled to death by a special mount was comical, but losing him in battle..."
>>48032>>48031"Did you hear that brad? The wind had a voice on it."
>>48033"Like dust in the wind"
>>48032I can always shoot the two fuckers if they keep ignoring me.
Thez looks at Trump and Infernius, and then at Torcuil. "I've no idea what they're on about. It
was funny though. One minute you were sitting there inspecting part of the room, the next minute you were on the floor disintegrating into sand. I mean, if we didn't have an entertron I'd be devastated! But as is,...."
>>48030"Sorry, my Bluff skill is shit."
>>48036>grumblingI need sleep, so this is where I part for the
night aw fuck it's morning.
See you faggots later
>>48036"Thez me get suit for wedding"
>>48035*growls in draconic*
>>48037Love you, and see you later
>>48037Later. Sorry I bailed earlier
>>48039"A suit?" She thinks for a moment. "I can't say I've ever seen you wear clothes before, its hard to imagine."
>>48042"Me want to look me best for you on big day."
>>48043"Then why a suit? Why not rhinoplasty?"
"I'm kidding!"
>>48044"Heh good one."
*rubs muzzle*
>>48045"So what kind of suit? A duck suit? A swim suit?"
>>48046"A nice German made suit."
"Hugo BOSS"
>>48047"So a suit, or a
uniform? I understand Hugo Boss designed the nazi uniforms,...."
>>48048"Both. Um thez how do you feel about me still being Nazi?"
>>48049She shrugs. "I don't really have an opinion about it. I've been reading more of Rockwell, and I highly approve of his position thus far."
>>48050"Um thez will you teach me to read?"
>>48050"Rockwell is best."
>>48051>>48052She gasps at this, covering her mouth with both hands. "You mean,... but don't you carry around Mein Kampf? You carry Hitler's word but can't,...." her eyes get watery "You really are insufferably adorable. Consider it my main "intervening period" activity," she says, hugging him tightly around the abdomen.
>>48053"Thez me glad me met you."
She continues to hold him, murmuring softly before saying, "Naturally."
"Thanks," she mutters softly, and not in a sarcastic or shitposting tone.
>>48055"Me tired."
*picks up thez*
"You want lay down with me?"
>>48056Her eyebrow twitches. "Do we
have to lay down tho?"
>>48057"We dont have to just lay down."
>>48058"Heeeeeee," she intones with a hint of lewdness to her voice.
Its pretty obvious where its going from there. "One quick question. Do you like me better
with scales, or without?"
>>48059"Me like you gray. It hot."
>>48060"I was more asking about texture than pallor."
>>48061"Scales did feel nice."
>>48062"Good to know," she says smiling and booping him.
>>48063*boop of opportunity*
"Thez how would you feel if me turned into earth pony?"
>>48064She mutters something about him being trans now.
"Just kidding. Seriously, I don't know. Wouldn't that limit the number and types of items at your disposal?"
>>48065"Meh it just idea me have floating around for awhile."
>>48066"You're not gonna try for Paladin Mount too are you?" she teases.
>>48067"Me might."
*winks*
>>48069'Night
And they did fug.
>>48051Infernius is the cutest.
>>48068>>48067Just fyi, Paladin is a prestige class in unearthed arcana:
https://dnd-wiki.org/wiki/Publication:Unearthed_Arcana/Prestige_PaladinNot as great as the base class, but you'll get everything you want out of it. You don't get paladin spells, but it advances in the spells of your current divine spellcasting class (cleric).
>>48076You have to have mounted combat, and a few other skill ranks though.
>>48076You get the horse at lvl 2.
>>48041M8 it's fine.
>>48075Agreed
[1d20+24 = 38]
Well Idk what Tracy's Int modifier is with her headband, but I'll make a Search check, to gather-up those remaining shards of glass from when the temple was blown open.
>Infernius as my Paladin's mount
>>48083He's going to be Thez's familiar.
>>48084>tfw this party is just one big orgy of cohort haxx
>>48084Reeeee! I want him!
>>48085We have other firms of haxx as well
>>48088I deleted it because I realized it wasn't as good as it seemed at first.
>>48089Although, looking at the canon writings, there's no restriction on falling, and then taking the prestige class
and then falling again to get the falling benefits two-fold.
>>48091Yeah, bullshit character development. I just thought the extra Sneak Attack was sexy. I don't have the patience to be LG for even one level anyway.
>>48092On that note, you have to be able to cast protection from ebil too.
>>48092Just don't go out of your way to be lol ebil
Will we be ready to crawl today?
>>48097That reminds me. Part of the reason that enemies are always coming to you (the party) is because exploration has been less feasible. The Tower is slow AF, and going on foot or flying/running on air is exhausting and inefficient. Additionally, this particular set of encounters (the pyramid etc.) is a consequence of escaping Court City without burning it to the ground desu. Lastly, its my job to find a way to rob the party of any peace that I can, and I shall do my duty.
>>48100Frankly I don't recall a headband. Could you remind me?
>>48085Embrace the hax
>>48096I should be around for the rest of the day
>>48101She got a headband of intellect in that chest before the party left to find Infernius
(I was greedy and asked for an ebin headband, but ebin because that's too haxx). I just never asked what the Int bonus was (+2, +4, or +6), because I've been a massive idiot and haven't been applying her Int bonus to Search checks and whatnot.
Also, how much glass did she collect? The hole in the temple is big enough for Tracy to walk through at full size, so there had to be a lot of shards.
>>48105Nope, its like safety glass, tiny pebbles. And I'm not just saying that cuz I don't want to worry about what Tracy would do with ebin glass pieces.
>>48098Well exploration should be easier now cause airship.
Actually, I think Torc is the most traveled of the party.
>>48106>I don't want to worry about what Tracy would do with ebin glass piecesGlue the pieces together to make an ebin glass sword, of course, like in Skyrim.
I guess I'll just have her blow another whole in the temple later...
*collects tiny pebbles in sack*
>>48107>airshipPrecisely. By the way, Torcuil had previously disengaged the faulty cannon from the mechanism on the ship. There's only one volley remaining though.
>>48109Oh so I could still fire volleys, okay.
How does it reload?
>>48110By turning the mechanism. The ejection, reloading, and firing of the cannons is all mechanically integrated to the hand-crank. It was designed so that a person could obliterate any aggressors without putting their drink down.
>>48111And that means we're almost out of shells...
I take it gnomes have the power to make more?
>>48108Glass hammer could be useful too though.
>>48114*meticulously gathers pebbles into one giant sack*
Also, the reason that the airship cannons are the only thing that can damage the glassteel is because A: the walls are thick AF, and B. because they fire at a much higher velocity than standard cannons or the employed magics. Glassteel is remarkably temperature-resilient, quickly diffusing any extreme irregularities.
Tl;dr You gotta use armor piercing rounds.
>>48114Axes or maces would be the easiest to make, given the size of the particles.
>>48116>you gotta use armor peircingWhat about armor peircing, that explode?
HEIAP
>>48117Talk to the Gnomes
>>48108It might work as a Maquahuitl
>>48116We have some Sovereign Glue, so I guess a glassteel mace or hammer could be made over the course of a couple days.
Would the
Make Whole Spell be able to fuse particles together?
Also, Since it's only half as heavy as steel, could Tracy make a Yuge-sized hammer and still wield it without penalty?
>>48118You mean like those Mayan sword-clubs?
>>48119>Make WholeGood thinking, but not in this case. The damage results in both warping and melting of the glass, in addition to being reduced to fine pieces.
>>48119I desire a glassteel claymore. I will discover da wey to make one, one day.>>48121Awww...
>>48122You need ebola to Kno de wey
>>48121Well, I'll have Tracy make the hammer first. Then I'll see if she can use that to break other chuncks off later on.
How long has this Dimensional Lock been set? It should last at least 2 weeks.
>>481241 day per caster level, so 16 days total. I'd say its probably been 5 days, without looking back.
>>48102Good to hear.
Is anyone else here atm?
I've been here, if anyone's wondering
>>48125>five daysIt was set at night, then we had the day with the Pirates, and then the day it was penetrated and the mummies fought
>>48126I am totally not here
>>48128Didn't you go through a period where you were repairing the city and whatnot?
>>48130I don't believe so. I cannot imagine prioritizing repairs over destroying the phylacteries of three lichs
>>48131So the town is still destroyed?
>>48131Yeah, you would never do that
>>48132The only significant damage to the Port was at the main gate. The undead focused on attacking the ppl, not the structures.
>>48132The town is less damaged than it was in the demonic invasion since the brothel was the only area inside of the town that was firmly penetrated, and since fires were not started
Alright.
Let's just wait for Infernius.
How thick are the walls of the temple?
>>48137E X T R A T H I C C
probably
>>48139What are you thinking? e_e
>>48140.... I was estimating how many cubic feet of precious glassteel pebbles would've been dumped into the temple from a hole that was 16 by 16 ft...
>>48141I'm gonna guess, a lot of them.
Anyone want another hole for entry?
>>48142Svae it for later. I might want to target the edge of the hole, to see if bigger chunks could come off.
>>48143Yeah I was kinda thinking that too
>>48141Plenty. More than can be carried effectively by one person (or pony).
>>48145Tracy dumps the sacks off gravel in her bag of holding and saddlebags,m and makes rounds to her room as she waits for Infernius to arrive.
Oh hush, the hole isn't really that big. Tracy's faggottry is just taking the "16 feet" mention to seriously
>>48149Why you exaggerate even things like carrying capacity?
>>48150>A light load for a cauchemar is up to 612 pounds; a medium load, 613–1,224 pounds; and a heavy load, 1,225–1,840 pounds.It's the same reason why she's able to move at full speed while carrying Trumpaladin in heavy armor.
>>48153She ain't a cauchenar at at will
>not appreciating smug Daybreaker pics
>>48154Let GM decide when she is and isn't.
>>48156It was already decided. Months ago. You just refuse to acknowledge it
>>48157Then why are you deleting it so incessantly?
>>48156Because you go beyond established limits incessantly
>>48159It's not your place to enforce rules of this game.
And since when is she not able to transform on her own? She's only at full-power when ridden, but she can still transform.
>>48160She's never been able to transform into a
31 strength Cauchemar on her own
>>48160>Not your place to enforce rulesIt's not your place to constantly willfully break them
>>48161Carrying capacity is not all about strength.
And regardless, that doesn't excuse you deleting things on your own accord.
>>48163>>48161Even if she were only as strong as a heavy warhorse, she could still drag 4,500 pounds.
And why do you care so much about what she can carry?
>>48164She doesn't have a literal ton of carry capacity and you are not excused for ignoring the limits previously established
>>48166>limits previously establishedWhat limits are you referring to? How were they worded?
I don't need your permission every time she does something.
>>48163Actually, that's kind of Tracy's gimmick by now
>>48164Technically, it is in a comparable manner
>>48165Wut? No.
Wait, no, that's correct.
>>48165Because it's enough that you're evidently being allowed to craft out of glass steel and a very large quantity of it at that, even though it's not a listed weapon making material
>>48170It's listed in other publications. I know it's weight and hardness.
If she's even as big as a regular horse, she'd be able to carry most of it back by herself.
>>48168It's Tracy's faggot's gimic
>>48167When there's no rules to it it ceases to be a game at all. There's no challenge or strategy or thought to it, just making up new superpowers every hour
>>48171Then you don't need cauchemar strength now do you?
\r
>>48172You don't decide the rules, so stop acting like you're in charge.
This isn't D&D.
>>48173>calicheWut?
>>48174You're not in charge either faggot
>>48170Neither is "Mythrium", which is what Sugoito is made of,....
>>48171Its not a question of weight, its a question of volume. I suppose it could all fit in the broom closet tho.
>>48172What he means - I assume, cuz its all I'll allow - is that when in full Cauchemar form, Tracy would be able to
carry 1400lbs (including Trump), or
drag 4200 lbs (with NO carried weight).
In Heavy Warhorse form (agitated/combat) she has appropriate weight limits and such (I'll look it up later), and likewise for base pony form.
Warhorse form is like a berserk rage though, and can't be maintained for a duration.
The penalties for a heavy load are pretty extensive though
>>48175I'm not the one who's censoring other players' comments and acting like he's enforcing the rules of the game.
>>48177She can heal exhaustion in the Entertron, can't she? She's just staying productive while Infernius prays or whatever.
>>48176I thought Suigoto was Ademantium?
>>48178Jesus Christ you could do everything you say you want to just by lowering the airship next to the hole and loading it on the airship
Your imagined powers have seriously harmed your problem solving abilities
>>48179An adamantium
alloy, yes.
>>48176I would've liked to make a Shatterspike, if I could figure out how to shape this material.
>>48180I thought of that, but I figured it'd take longer.
>>48176>Warhorse formWait, do you mean the hybrid form where she's just a blue horse, or the form where she has a regular nightmare's abilities?
>>48183How many forms does she have? As I recall:
Pony form
Flaming Warhorse form
Cauchemar form
>>48184I put 17 ranks into Control Shape so she could transform at will and have a hybrid shape. I've been operating under the assumption that it was:
>pony form>Warhorse form>Cauchemar form (nerfed stats)>Cauchemar form (complete stats)
>>48185That's way too confusing. I'm of the mind that since she's had the (((essence))) extracted from her, she loses the nerfed Cauchemar form. She can still catch fire in Warhorse form if she wants tho.
>>48185Shit, it may have been 9 ranks, let me find my sheet..
>>48186I've been treating her ability like unnatural lycanthropy thus far.
>she's had the (((essence))) extracted from herWhen did that happen?
>>48187The uhm,... lewd display in the stadium with Trump and Fae,....
>>48186>She can still catch fire in Warhorse form if she wants tho.Does she still have the projectile smoke cone?
>>48188Wait, that had consequences?
Reeeeeeee!Well shoot, now I've got to find new essence...
>>48189Yes and she can direct it, but it doesn't conceal her normally.
>>48190Haven't you noticed that lewd has the
most consequences ITT?
>>48188What do those ranks in Control Shape account for then?
>>48191>it doesn't conceal her normallyWhat's the difference in concealment?
>>48190I wish she hadn't lost Soros's leg to the Tarrasque.. Now I have to find another fiend for her to eat...
>Look up D&D Nightmares
>Pictures like this pop up
Reeee! Why can't I look up monsters without being sexually aroused
>>48192Being able to still go Warhorse form.
>>48193Before, the smoke naturally occurred around her granting concealment at 5' and 10' (partial/full), but she could also blow smoke at an enemy. Now she can only blow it at the enemy (meaning, she could partially/totally conceal herself from 1-2 opponents, but not all those around her in a circumference). Unless full Cauchemar
>>48195Nightmares are really well-built monsters. They're bred for strength and vigor.
>>48196... So she can't use it to pull a Korak and shoot bolts/shurikens from concealment anymore?
>>48195Nightmare is for rough sexual
>>48197 She could if she blew at the target first. You don't have to have concealment from
everyone to do a sneak attack, just the victim.
*finishes carrying glass*
>>48198Alright. The cone lasts a round, so it should be able to work.
I'll just carry a bunch of smokebombs and drop them all over the place from now on.
>>48199Actually, that darkness kunai thing was brilliant
>>48200She can see through smoke, but the Darkness obscures even her darkvision, so it's ony good for getaway's, unless I have her take Blindfight..
Dropping an object is a free action, and smokebombs aren't expensive.
>>48201Is lighting a smokebomb a swift action or a standard action?
>>48201>Claiming more Sus when you've just been given one that stacks with and makes infinitely more effective a class ability\r
>>48202How is one lighting it?
>>48196How is this anything other than letting every single attack in all combat be a sneak attack with a free action?
>>48206Its only usable once/round. Best case scenario. she gets an additional sneak attack.
>>48207That's an additional at least one sneak attack every single round though.
The boots of the wolf only let you flank once per encounter, and the cape presumably only lets you execute the manuever when you first draw the pistols, so about once per encounter. But this is 9d6 extra damage
every single round of any encounter. 30+ additional damage every single round. For free. With no strategy, just using haxx to exploit a class feature to the etreme.
>>48208Smite evil only gives 17 damage per attack, less than half sneak attack damage. And that's limited to 4 uses a day
>>48205... shit, I didn't think of that..
How does Ponimaru light his?
>>48201On second thought, that'd look dumb and be retarded...
>>48206With a ring of Invisibility, you could Sneak Attack as many times as you wanted.
>>48209It's great for killing fiends and undead though.
Can't Sneak Attack the undead at all...
>>48207I could ask for an additional 9d6 damage on the first attack in every single round of combat... But what would be the point? You look at an enemy and *poof* they're dead. No strategy, no clever moves. No real chance of dying, being defeated and losing. No sense of accomplishment up winning. No comparing your results to people in other campaigns. Just attack an enemy, and they're dead. Why fight enemies at all?
>>48211Invisibility spell ends when you attack an enemy
>>48213>Why fight enemies at all?To steal their loot, of course.
Thieves ftw
>>48214And that's another thing. What's the point of loot if what you already have or can make yourself quickly is better than what you can steal? You lose all of the Christmas Morning excitement
>>48215Because, you know what you're getting with crafting.
The excitement is getting something you didn't even think about, but can use all the same
What happens to a party memeber's dead body when they reappear in the enteron?
E.G: Trump bleeds out and revives. Does his body *poof* into smoke just leaving gear, or does it stay there?
>>48215The good shit doesn't get made quickly. Thez has been waiting since she became hooman (ish) again to unveil her Amulet of Natural Armor. Fuggin' DAYS
>>48215>What's the point of loot if what you already have or can make yourself quickly is better than what you can steal?The thrill of stealing things, and stabbing enemies.
Also, craft takes weeks, while stabbing is a standard action. Rogues don't have magick either.
>>48219There's no thrill of stabbing or stealing if there's no challenge to it and no need for strategy
>>48217It either gets eaten by monsters, or liquidated by the rest of the party.
>>48220Quantity.
If there's no challenge, keep doing it until you've got moar shekels than you can count. Then spend the shekels on cool stuff that makes it more efficient to kill more people and steal more stuff. Acquire wealth and power.
>>48221Oh no, if the bodies stay I have an idea.
>>48222That entirely eliminates an entire pillar of the game by making combat meaningless except as money farming. Like why the hell not just lend out money at interest if that is your goal?
You're killing the fun by cheating everything
>>48217That's tricky, and its not as simple as you might think. I'd answer more fully, but no spoilers. ^_^
>>48224Don't get robbed again myah,....
>>48224I like stabbing things.
The more efficiently I stab, the more I
can stab.
>You're killing the funYou don't have to stab if it's not any fun for you.
>>48224>Like why the hell not just lend out money at interestNobody to lend to, and I'd rather spend it on better swag.
>>48226Then why do you need haxx like free-action every-round smoke screen
>>48227What swag? All swag is combat based, but the cheats you use for combat just makes it meaningless
>>48228I'm sure there will come a point where we can spend money.
The whole Port is still almost broke btw. We still need to get back the shekels that were stolen.
>>48228>every-round smoke screenMore efficient stabbing.
[1d20+15 = 16]>>48225but I had a great idea
In the meantime, Torc decides to step back into hole in the temple while Mr. Snek sneks snek-ily.
Rolling for an archtecture check for hidden shit
>>48229Yeah, but why destroy the entire combat pillar of the game when we can have both loot and fun combat?
>>48230>1Welp, tonight is off to such a
great fucking start
>>48230>15How'd you get 15 in a Knowledge skill as a sorceror? I've been trying to rank-up in Planes knowledge, but i can still only get 8 ranks.
>>48231>destroy the entire combat pillar of the gameRogues don't play fair.
You met Korak, right? He'd sneak attack with both of his gunz.
>>48083>pic related>>48075Awwwww
>>48235Yay! Infernius is here.
Now we can finally get to the crawl.
>>48234You're confusing the player with the character. Players should play fair. And that cloak was only effective once per encounter unless he could duplicate the move
>>48233I have 12 ranks, extra 3 with int
>>48234Now Torc snek attacks with the guns.
[2d12 = 4]>>48235Its true tho
>>48230And Torcuil gashes his leg open on broken glass while entering the temple.
>>48237The cloak gives increasing concealment since the start of the encounter.
>>48238Can we advance knowledge ranks even if we don't have the skill?
I want to advance planes knowledge to become a Agent Retriever.
>>48239Man, thats a real fucked up
knowledge check
>>48241You failed to know where you were stepping.
>>48235Have him come to the door so we can start crawling.
>>48239You can't use it to hide the guns every single round though, just when you initially draw them
>>48243Edge Pone Best Pone
>>48244*infernuis crawls to the pyramid*
>>48244He's gonna walk in on Torc hopping around on one leg shouting assorted curses about Kefka's mother
>>48246Thats Infernuis pone form except hes a stallion.
>>48245That's not how the robe works.
Thieves (rogues and Bards) can also use Sleight of Hand checks to conceal their weapons.
With a dagger and a good check, you can Sneak Attack a character right in front of you.
>>48248"You haven't an arm, ya haven't a leg, Haroo! Haroo!
>>48250Not every single round of every encounter
[1d20 = 9]>>48250Sneak attack boop on tracy
[1d20+22 = 24]>>48252Reeee! Don't boop my pony!
Sneak attack boop on Thez
>>48241>4 dmgWhat was I supposed to do? Have him have an aneurysm?
And Thez <whoooof> appears on scene,... with an unusual thickness to her skin. Its as though she's grown scales over her normal skin, aesthetically different (appearance-wise) but functionally the same as her previous Infernal appearance.
Also Infernius crawls on the scene to be a smartass.
[1d20 = 11]>>48253Reeeeeeee
Boops brad sentry
>>48252>>48253>all these shitty rollsIt's gonna be a long night
[1d20+22 = 34]>>48255Oh Yeah! Boop You!
[16d20 = 148]
Thez gets mad.
T> Flurry of Boops
>>48258Does... she fumble after the first 1 or does she get in the second critical boop?
It appears that everyone has been machine-gun booped, including a critical boop, before Thez rolled a fail.
Fuzzy spooder ring bonuses, what are they again?>>48254"Fucking son o' a whore."
Torc then notices Infernius crawling in
"Could you help me"
>>48258"MY NOSE"
>>48259No, the fail eliminates any further attacks.
Everyone was booped tho.
>>48260Does she have that multiple opponent attack feat? Who received critical boopage?
>>48251>Not every single round of every encounterWhere does it say you can't? The robe''s concealment increaeses as the the encounter progresses too. A normal cloak or robe gives you a +4 bonus on Sleight of Hand checks.
So long as you conceal your weapon, your enemy can't properly defend themselves, and are thus denied their dexterity bonus to AC, making them susceptible to Sneak Attacks.
>>48263I vote snek or Infernius gets the critical
[1d20 = 9]>>48261Boops meme magician
*casts heal moderate wounds*
>>48266>9We aren't gonna get shit done at this rate
>>48266>minorDude, its 4 dmg
>>48265Technically, Trump should get it cuz she booped him first (cuz he booped her first) but she likes Infernius better, and would have given him the critical boop. Its not a bad thing.
[1d20+26 = 36]
Tracy goes ahead, making sure to check for traps so the party doesn't get killed.
Search check to look for traps and hidden doors.
Inferius, could you cast Hide From Undead?
[1d20 = 6]>>48264Yeah, I'm pretty sure it doesn't work that way. I'm too busy booping to write a damned brief on the issue though
>>48266>Healing boopWhy didn't I think of that?
>>48265But snek has a different nose, so do you just boop him normally?
>>48267Rolling to Grab Tracy by the pussy, see if that gives a good roll

[1d20+26 = 41]
Trumpaladin detects Evil

Trumpaladin follows Tracy with Fae - way behind Tracy
Spot and listen check
>>48281Good, cast it on everyone.
So long as we don't attack, undead can't see, hear, or smell us, but they can still sense circumstantial shit, so no horsing around.
>>48282Is the door closed?
>>48281Hand slap-slap-slap "Stahp!"
>>48284The only door that's opened is the Mummy door.
>>48280That works, thanks again GM

>>48287"Scales feel good"
>>48289"But sexually arousing?"
[1d20+23 = 25]>>48285So, Tracy would have to open the door to see what's on the other side?
Search check to examine the door to see if it'd creak when opened.
[1d20+27 = 43]>>48291Also, trap sense because why not.
Do I add the +4 to the modifier when using Search to look for traps?
>>48291Wanna do a detect evil on the closed door first?
>>48293That'd take 3 rounds to get anything useful.
>>48294Do we not have 18 seconds to spare?
>>48295I'm sure it's evil.
>>48290"Thez arousing all the time,it dont matter what form she take."
>>48296Yeah, but we can tell the number of enemies, direction, and relative strength of enemies at least near the door before opening it
>>48297"But... Scales? Lizards aren't sexy"
>>48297Infernius, when your character gets there, could you cast Disrupting weapon on Tracy's sword, so she can actually damage all these zombies? Sneak Attack can't do shit to them.
[1d20+21 = 39]>>48298Wait for the Roll to resolve.
Listen check, to detect anything on the other side of the door.
>>48299*casts disrupting weapon*

Tracy has her cane drawn
>>48307Do these char sheets look better? I know I don't have item descriptions I'll get those later.
>>48310Snek readies gun.
Torc activates his shield this time, and prepares his staff of power
>>48312Oh Tracy's in front, that's for sure
>>48312Tracy opens the door carefully. As it minutely squeaks open, nothing seems to jump out or attack. There are noises, an intermittent series of squeaks and such, but nothing is particularly immediate.
>>48312You mean the sword that sometimes appears as a cane? You mean Korak's Gentlemen's Sword of the High Seas?

Snek wriggles up to the door and spot checks for Torc
>all these animals breathing down her neck
[angry rogue-pony noises]
>>48334Shadows don't have stealth in daylight either
>>48337Fae: *breathes in Draconic*
>>48338My only regret is not combining that with a listen check.
Tracy backs away, to let Fae and Snek take the first hit if anything pops out.
>>48341Infernuis charged in already
>>48342I would say that that's foolish because of Traps and such, but frankly, it's more fun when you play your character that way
>>48341Snek is just poking his head in, besides pretty sure Infernius and Daylight are some effective distractions
>>48330A shambling mound of squeaking
>>48330Xp
>>48331The whole room is suddenly lit up with simulated daylight, causing the mound to squeak unceasingly and in multitude.
>>48332And,... Infernius is covered in undead rats
>>48335Snek spots Infernius being an idiot, and being swarmed by undead rats.
Whatever.
Since everyone has already walked up to the door, Tracy steps back and use the distraction to salvage her own stealth.
Rolling to Hide
[1d20+26 = 44]
Trumpaladin casts detect evil and Fae does a basic spot check
[1d20 = 8]>>48345Turn Undead on the Rats! I don't know what I should roll for but...Rolling
>>48329The "shambling mound" comment was supposed to be to this post
>>48345Do snakes get a racial bonus against rats?
Gonna go ahead and roll initiative

[1d20 = 7] Torc
Inferius please use the mass healing spell that damages undead
[3d20 = 32]
I set them on fire.
>>48350Aww, fine. As the undead rats pour over Infernius and begin to run for the door, frenzied by the sudden daylight in the room,... Trump kills them with a turn. The room is barren except for exploded undead rats, and some horribly (and I do mean that) fetid and rotten household wares (grains, and otherwise anciently spoiled foodstuffs).
>>48352>>48353Too late, Trump went and compelled them with the power of Christ

[1d20+26 = 40]>>48354>The room is empty and barrenLol bullshit
Fae does a spot check on the room from the door, with a modifier so high she can see moving invisible things with only a 4 dice roll
Trumpaladin detects evil
>>48356Search for Traps first
>>48348I found an item for your consideration. Horseshoes of a Zephyr>>48354Well thats fucking boring
[1d20+20 = 31]>>48358Search
is trap sense.
Tracy Listens, to see if all of that commotion alerted anyone in the other rooms.
>>48359Tracy already has those.
>>48359For one, she already has those shoes
For two,... yeah I had hoped to bother the party more with those.
>>48360I keep applying the wrong modifier...
>>48360No, the miniscule squeaks do not seem to have alerted any other areas to the party's activity.
>>48357NO srsly, its several piles of long-spoiled goods and not much else. Realize, its been fore-fuggin'-ever since this vessel was carrying living cargo.
[1d20+14 = 32][1d20+26 = 33]>>48364Fae looks down the hallway with spot and listen
Trumpaladin looks into the room... Vessel, you say? What does the room look like its purpose was?
>>48361>>48362You do?
Oh, I feel stupid.
>>48364"Shall we move on?"
Infernuus continues ahead looking for kangz and kikes.
[1d20 = 15]>>48365For holding food, probably.
Tracy advances down the hallway, a good three squares ahead of everyone to maintain stealth.
Rolling to move silently
>>48367Cast Hide From Undead again.
>>48368>Three squares ahead of everyoneExcept for Infernius, who is one ahead of her
There's a door at the opposite end of the room, otherwise the party can backtrack to the hallway.
[1d20+24 = 42]>>48371Tracy approaches it slowly.
Search/Trap-sense
[1d20+9 = 21]>>48371Torc walks up to the door with Snek, and signals for snek to listen through the door
>>48373WHY DO YOU NOT LET THE ROGUE DO HER THING FIRST
>>48371Trumpaladin stands behind Infernius and Tracy and casts detect evil to see if anything is on the other side of that door
>>48373On one hand, fuck you
On the other, this is infernius
>>48379"Infernius... Let Tracy do her thing"
>>48382He already opened it though
>>48382Too late. He already did it...
>>48373A pair of lumbering forms turn toward you to attack.
>>48379kek
>>48380Aside from the whole place, nothing.
[1d20 = 13]
Infernius, roll initiative
>>48387Um... Can Trump use boots of the wolf to attack the forms?
[1d20+20 = 34]>>48387How can they see him if they're undead?
Unless they're not undead...
Spot check for Tracy.
>>48389No, he has no visual on the opponents.
>>48390Well that's less fun. Infernius has first move, and his sword is already burning (don't think I didn't notice earlier).
[1d20 = 1]
Trumpaladin makes a petting of opportunity on nearest pettable creature
[1d20+21 = 38]
Torc decides to detect magic.
What bonuses besides INT do I add, spellcraft right?
[6d6 = 18]>>48393All 3 attacks hit, all 3 doing damage, and quite probably felling the poor thing, given Infernius' strength bonus (I think is +14?)
Dice is damage, not including modifiers (which should be @ x3)
>>48397Two resonant signatures
[1d20 = 9]>>48398>OpportunistTracy makes an attack of opportunity on whatever was just hit.
>>48400Could be human or pony or what have you captives
>>48402>tfw ebil and don't care either way
>>48403You ain't in line of sight either, and it's already dead anyways
[4d20 = 43]>>48400Just wait
>>48401Newp, Infernius is the only one in visual/attack range.
So the forms full-attack Infernius. They look like Frankenstein.
>>48404Tracy was right at the door, and she's smol, so she can move through his square.
>>48406She's a medium sized creature
>>48399Like, as in objects or usrs, or unknown?
also, can I apply arcan knowledge and spellcraft to detect magic?
>>48407Kinky
>>48411Not in the size category sense though.
If she were, she couldn't use medium sized weapons with proficiency. So that chain and that sword could only be used with penalties
[1d100 = 74][2d8+5 = 14][2d8+5 = 9]>>48409First hit is a severe crit, knocking Infernius on his heels (stumble roll). Second and 4th atk miss, but 3rd atk hits also.
First roll does 3x damage.
>>48412The same way you wield a Bastard Sword without exotic weapon proficiency.
>>48411No they're not. If dwarves are med, ponies r too.
>>48414I asked about that, and besides I have an extra undedicated feat
You're not going to declare that she has small size category just now in battle when you've been using medium sized weapons for months
[2d6 = 5]>>48413So 45 damage points to Infernius, and he accidentally hits himself for damage also (no str bonus)
>>48417Holy shit
Um... can Trumpaladin flank with boots or is this still Infernius's fight?
>>48416Really?
I was refering to that post in the second thread
>>1322 → where Tracy tried to push trumpaladin over, but failed because >"ponies r small"
I've applied her size modifier as such ever since.
>>48418I miscalculated. Between these two Frankies and the forced fumble, Infernius takes 56 damage.
Everyone ELSE roll initiative now.
[1d20 = 11][1d20 = 7]>>48420Rolling
And Fae as well, although she should have +6
>>48419>using an uber early-post as referenceI'm both bothered and impressed by this. Idk how I'll modify the next roll.
>>48422Tracy is last
>>48419If she's 90 pounds like a small human female she's medium sized. I think she has to be under 60 to be small. It's just easier if she's medium
>>48426This was in character, i forgot the quotations
[1d100 = 53]>>48426Hope you don't die
>>48424>bothered and impressed by thisAutism. Pay it no mind.
>>48425Aww...
I wanted to be smol so I could do cool stealthy things and whatnot...
>>48426Let the Rogue check first next time.
>>48428If i do ill get better.
>>48429She's still small enough to mount a fully armored Trumpaladin, although she increases his encumbrance by one category
>>48430This
>>48420Rolling torc and snek
>>48434You somehow manage to go after Tracy
[2d20 = 31]Lets try that again
>>48430Snek hisses in agreement
>>48431Hmmm. Technically, one needs to sustain 50% health loss to system shock vs. death, and Infernius had a max of 133 before recent level. No system shock, he's just hurting but not in danger of kill.
>>48432Watch your back next time.
[1d20+3 = 8]>>48436Aw yes
>>48438Snek shoots at the closest frankstien. What else do I apply other than dex? Whats the range?
>>48441Range is immediate
Order:
Snek
Infernius
Fae
Trump/Frankies
Thez
Torc
Tracy
BTW, if not explicit, these are Golems, not undead.
>>48442>immediateIs that more or less than 30 ft?
>>48445What the fuck do you think?
>>48444Cool
>as the party engages the Frankensteins, shuffling noises can be heard from further down the hallway, including a disconcerting sound hibbity hooblah.
>>48444Yeah, I guessed pretty early on, but didn't say anything because metafaggotry.
It's gay when players just look them up.
>>48445Point blank
>>48448TY, I prefer for players to be balls-deep before knowing what they're tangling with
[1d20+24 = 41]>>48447Listen check
How many?
>>48448You say that every damned encounter "oh I knew it!"
>>484503 aside from those apparent.
>>48451Well, I do have a nasty tendency to foreshadow and hint
>>48449I prefer to just fight blindly, because there's no way fr my character to know what kind of monster, so why should I?
>>48451I read the whole monster catalog twice, because I'm a massive autist and love monsters.
>>48449Ah, so another +1 not that it helps
>>48446ASS
>>48451HOLE

Rolling to Hide in previous room.
>>48447"Guys we have orks niggers coming."
>>48455Oh fuck off.
>>48456We're in the middle of an encounter with initiative already rolled. Wait for Infernius to make his turn
>>48457Shhh, you're coughing up blood atm.
Its Infernius' turn against the golems. One is damaged, the other is not.
[3d20 = 44]>>48461Attack the one that crit me.
[1d100 = 30]>>48460Are they? Rolling
[6d6+15 = 31]>>48462>same one that was damaged earlierI'm still waiting on Infernius' combined damage modifiers, but all 3 hit, and I'll be most surprised if they didn't kill.
https://youtu.be/H0xiOWZmYloThe one frankie falls to the ground, chopped mightily by Infernius
[3d20 = 43]>>48465Fae, full round attack on second golem
Modifiers are 20 or 22 on first attack and 18 or 20 on the second two attacks
Fae, then Trump/golems, then Thez, Torc, and lastly Tracy
>shuffling sound intensifies
>>48465Lets out a mighty cough.
>>48467Um... rolled for Fae in
>>48466
>>48468No hernias detected
[1d20 = 19]>>48466If that lands, Tracy get's an AoO
Tracy makes a Trip attack on the golem with a keened dagger.
[4d20 = 44]>>48470Rolling for Trumpaladin's full round attack
>>48471>Trip attack on a large machine with a dagger
>>48470Kek
>>48467Torc casts "Hold Monster" from the staff of power
>>48472The dagger is so it doesn't provoke an AoO from the golem, and it does tripple damage because keened dagger.
>>48469Apologies. However, it doesn't go "20-22, 18-20" modifiers. It goes "20-22, 15-17".
>MOAR number crunchingI swear, you guys don't even know how many otherwise supercilious rolls I have to make, just to be sure what happens. I know, I keep some of it off-board so >confusing but,... nevermind. Also, you don't know how many times I start responding to a post cuz its edgy or wtfe, but then scroll up and fine "Oh yeah, that later part is impossible and couldn't have happened. In the bin,...."
>>48476With the Multiattack feat it does
>>48476How is her base attack bonus +20?
>>48478Not base attack, combined attack bonus
Fae, is increasingly fine form, just rips apart the 2nd Frankie btw. Its not "down" per say, but its been thoroughly "ground" on the front-surface.
>>48477Retracted, you are correct. Simplicity's sake, we'll put her attacks at +22, +19, and +16 for that particular exchange, which was in fact murderous.
>>48480Base attack, weapon/item augments, str bonus, etc - circumstantial
[4d20 = 42]>>48481Well, Trump will attack at the same time it attacks I guess
So Trump, with his rolls, is quick and able to drop the second Frankenstein - Flesh Golem. But the falling of the second is not all to be heard. Just around the corner is a really creepy "wurbuling" sound, while further down the hall is the dragging of limbs.
>>48486Did Tracy's Opportunist attack hit it?
[1d20+20 = 34][1d20+20 = 26]>>48486Spot and Listen checks to identify whateverthefuck is coming.
>>48486Alright, which hall, exactly? The hall the frankenstiens came from, or the other hall? Which hall are the hibbity hooblah's coming from?
[16d20 = 124]
Thez' turn.
<whoooof>
Just around the corner: "God dammit,...."
T> Flurry of Blows, broom
>>48486"Oh fuck, more?"
Torc readies his shield and staff again while joining up with Mr. Snek.
Okay, well that didn't last long. Thez quickly reduces her otherwise pile of oozing flesh into a less active pile of oozing flesh. There are still sounds coming from further down the hall, but there are no immediate threats.
[1d20+24 = 29]>>48494Search check to investigate the room the golems came out of.
>>48496They didn't "come out of", they appear to have been stationed here. Btw, its not your turn.
>>48495Nor yours either.
Torcuil has current move
>>48497Torc slowly walks out into the hall
"Thez, is it safe?"
>>48498A repeated squishing sound can be heard as Thez continues to beat a pile of goo about the 'face'. "Chaos <breath> Monster," she says with a demented look. The room is otherwise clear, as per map.
[1d20+24 = 42]>>48500Search the Room the golems were in
>>48501Golems were in the hallway, adjacent to the door. Care to revise?
>>48502Chamber closest to where they were stationed.
>>48499"Thez you *cough cough cough* okay?"
>>48503Red dots is where golems were. Nearest room has Thez in the corner, and sounds from down the hall. Thez is "sufficiently" wupping an ass, "Cuz you never know with these,... things!"
[1d20+24 = 39]>>48506Move towards the area where the Hoobla sounded from earlier.
Rolling to Sneak.
>>48507e_e I'll be more diligent in future
I suddenly want to build a >rape factory. Forget the ranch.
>>48508Is Tracy able to sneak up on the orcs?
>>48510Uhh do we put the kikes in the rape factory?
[1d20+16 = 28][1d20+26 = 39]>>48511Thez is T in b1
>>48509Trumpaladin walks into room B1, and detects evil
Fae spots and listens at the far end of the room
>>48504"Yeah, my fists hurt. Why?" she says laughingly before looking over and seeing Infernius' 'trophies' of combat.
"Hurry up and heal that, this might be trouble." she says seriously as a wave of slavering undead spills forth from the hallway. Its mummies, and zombies, and ghosts, and wraiths, and wights, and ghouls, in a wave of forms too great to number but certain to dissolve one's entire being and imprison them in an eternity of suffering and torment upon contact.
>>48515*casts heal serous wounds mass on the undead and myself*
A <THUMP THUMP "What is the word?"> sounds in Trump's head.
>>48517Let me find a pasta
[4d8+17 = 34]>>48515Uh, shit
Mass cure critical wounds.
Infernius, I would recommend a second casting of this.
Torc targets the closest 17 while his faggot trys to think of a meme
>>48517"And Thus did John Elway helicopter spin back in time to create the Denver Broncos, touch down and win Super Bowl XXVI, and cum inside Rainbow Dash.
Praise American"
>>48521How the fuck did I forget the Magic Word?
"Football"
>>48521"And with Dan Reaves, John Elway created the Universe, which created football, which created American, which was the first football"
Has Tracy gotten anywhere yet?
Trumpaladin frantically looks through a book pulled from Fae's bag
"I should have had this shit memmorized....
In the beginning there was John Elway. And John Elway was bored, so he challenged Dan reaves to a game. But there was no game, so John Elway created Football, which was the first Football, and from that Football cameth the universe, and John Elway cameth into Rainbow Dash
>>48523"Yea. But though Football, it was not the all-encompassing Football. Rather, it was the Football that was to be." Fae says with a bit of a smirk.
>>48526>>48521>>48522>>48523"That what your religion teaches?"
>>48526>tfw less intelligent and knowledgeable in own religion than mount>>48527"Praise American"
>>48527"Something tells me you don't wanna hear about Kek then"
"Everyone know hitler created the universe."
>>48531Torc doubles over laughing
"Nah, Hitler was a demigod. One of Kek's sons, whom achieved godhood through proving himself. Luckily I learned this word that should help us in my studies of him."
Torc turns towards the horse and utters a word.
"Shadilay"
>>48531"But we all created the universe," Thez retorts.
>>48532>>48534"WRONG
But by Elway's hand alone"
>>48535Trumpaladin places up his finger when doing this, as if interrupting in a debate and speaking out of turn
>sectarian conflict
Everyone duel to see which religion is superior.
>>48533>>48535"Both of you cease your heresies"
>>48533I meant horde, not horse
>>48538Wut?
>>48539"Psst! we're trying to kill an undead horde here with Holy word and word of Chaos. If you don't want to help, stand aside and let the professionals do their work. Also Football American is One True Faith"
So, has Tracy managed to sneak up on the orcs or not?
>>48542Oh, you act like this is easy. Xp
Gimme a sec
>>48541*roman salute*
"Hitler is superior."
>>48538Ah now I get it
>>48544Torc continues on
"Assoluto cosmico, regolare realtà
Respiro di un immagine, sintonia di civiltà
Confusa progenia di cellule ribelli
Volo verso l'universo, l'attraverserò
Se sei stella, fatti vedere, io mi fermerò

Shadilay, shadilay, oh no...

>>48546"To his fellow demis maybe. But Elway is a True God. Praise American"
\r
>>48547"Vola e Vai, My Little Pony, se nouva amici, volai enconuntrae..."
>>48550"Elway is a Demon Deciving you."
>>48547I have to admit, I find Shadilay a far better word of Chaos than Kek. Kek IS good, no mistake, but there's a bit too MUCH personification.
>>48553Kek is the god whose word of Chaos is Shadilay.
>>48553Can my word of chaos be "Deutschland"?
>>48555DEUTSCHLAND UBER ALLES, UBER ALLES IN DER WELT
>>48550"I'll deal with you later
>>48553GM, can Fae correct Infernius's heresy?
>>48555>Deutschland>Chaotic
>>48548Did you just call Hitler a "demi"?
>>48552Oh shit!
*pulls out popcorn for sweet, sweet sectarian violence*
>>48557"Okay heretic, i see you are blinded by "Elways" Deception"
>>48561"And I can see your 9 int has followed you into your theology"
>>48562Wouldn't theology be a Wis thing though?
>>48562"You will get yours, capitalist kike."
*readies self to sneak attack orcs*
>>48563I would think that both are useful for different aspects. like int for theology proper and wisdom for understanding the will of the god and so forth
>>48564"Freedom, glory, and wealth? Indeed I shall"
>>48566Didn't Infernius have 20 ranks in Knowledge religion?
>>48567Why would I know that?
Either way, Trumpaladin can call Infernius's religion wrong
>>48567I think i had that many. I lost my .txt when my pc stopped working
>>48569>>48570You could both roll to see who knows the
correct answer.
Oh hai
>>48568Anyway, how is your sex life?
>>48570It still should be in the older breads if you look.
I know Torc has 18 levels in it
>>48572How do you have 18 lvls with only 2 lvls in Theurge? Shouldn't it be 5 max?
Or do I have the skills system messed up?
>>48571Nah, when pleading opposite causes before an arbiter, you roll for Diplomacy. That's the debate skill
>>48574Because you need religious knowledge to become a theurge
>>48575Who's the arbiter?
And isn't this a theological debate?
>>48576Don't you need to be of a certain level to put that many ranks in though?
*readies knives, waiting to stab something*
>>48577Well if it's a theological debate then it is indeed a debate now isn't it?
>>48580Idk. Sounds like a knowledge dispute, desu.
I know you can roll knowledge religion to answer questions about gods. It's a complex question, so the DC would be 20-30.
>>48578If I'm being honest? Fuck if I know.
>>48581Nah. Neither party is going to know if the other character has a correct answer, because they don't hold to the same basis of knowledge and they don't acceot the other's religious texts as authoritative. It's like if you were arguing with a jew about whatever religious question. Neither would believe the other when they claimed a correct answer.
Debate is about force of personality and persuasion. That is, it's charisma based diplomacy
>>48583I'm going to put all my ranks upon next levels into knowledge plains and Gather Information then. I want to be an Agent Retriever.
>>48584Well that's just trying to get one to believe the other. That isn't going to go anywhere.
And can Tracy stab something yet?
>>48584What does word of chaos do?
>>48584Altering someone's opinion in this case would probably be closer to a Bluff check, if anything.
>>48587It would drop flat any non-chaotic creature.
>>48589Oh, cool
Nothing like using a spell with out knowing what it does, amirite?
>>48586Did you see
>>48568? That looks to me like DM going to sleep or going away for a long while and marking a point in the posts to figure out where he needs to start reading to catch up
>>48587Depends on the HD of the creature. Much lower HD than caster it kills, and equal HD it deafens, and so forth.
>>48591Not if they are equal HD or almost equal
>>48588Diplomacy is about improving mood. If I were actually trying to persuade Infernius I know the steps I would take
>>48592The description says creatures are only unaffected if their hit dice
exceeds your caster level though....
>>48593They are
unaffected only if greater. The affect on equal HD is deafening
>>48594>>48593Tracy is chaotic evil, right?
>>48596I refuse to believe Tracy isn't chaotic
>>48597Case in fucking point that is the worst shit I've seen my entire life. I need therapy now.
>>48598No no, chaotic evil is too much commitment to something that isn't evil for Tracy's faggot. He's been going on and on about that since October by now
>>48597Just...
>>48598I originally played her as chaotic neutral, then I switched to NE, and after that...
Shhh!
Alrifht, I gtg for the night cause I got shit to do in the morning. Night guys, seey you later>>48602Cause Tracy is now CE and doesn't want you to know
>>48603What is secret though?
>>48603Are you trying to avoid being affected by Word of Chaos?
>>48606No shit. I hate them
>>48607Tracy snuck off to another room during her turn before any of that happened.
I'm still waiting for her encounter with the orcs.
>>48608Yeah, no. I'm not putting up with this level of bullshit
\r
>>48609True. Tracy went towards the source of the sounds, which would mean that she was in the room with Trumpaladin and Torcuil, and thus would be subject to both Holy word and word of Chaos
>>48608She did though.
Has Tracy been able to Sneak Up on the orcs yet?
It's getting close to midnight..
>>48611GM WENT TO SLEEP
And just because something says hibbity hooblah doesn't make it an Orc. Hell, it could have run away and was what sounded the alarm to the undead horde. Also, where is she getting the cover to hide while she's in the open?
And what the hell is this shush?
>>48610What the fuck is this?
I said she went towards the Hibbity hoobla sounds.
Revisionist kike.
>>48614Uh huh. And point to me the location on the map where the hibbitty hooblah sounds were
>>48614Because what the hell is this shush? If you have secrets than I have editing
>>48615>>48610Why would you edit posts to put words in my mouth?
>>48616>secrets are as bad as lying
>>48617Because your post was nothing more than an "lol" to be a dick
>>48618Who's lying? You're the one trying to have her go in a different direction than the sounds would have been
>>48619>lyingActing in a fraudulent manner with intent to deceive: You edited that post so it would look like I had said something that I hadn't.
>>48619>nothing more than an "lol" to be a dickI was scoffing at your immature impulse to delet things you don't like.
>>48620No, I was editing it so you'd see it, be pissed off by it, and then delete it like you normally do.
>>48622I only delet things if I find them to not represent what I actually meant.
>>48621And you're making shit up about Tracy's location because you don't want to say what the hell is going on.
>>48624>implying the PCs would be able to tell if Tracy is visibly deafened by the Word of ChaosYou used Holy Word just before that.
>>48625Okay then. You can say that instead
>>48626>insteadInstead of what?
>>48627Instead of saying she's in a different room, given that b1 is almost certainly the direction of the voices as the only other hallway loops around
>>48628She explicitly moved away from the group, so she could Sneak Attack those orcs she head.
Skeletons, zombies or mummies don't go "hibbity hoobla", sand regardless, she is moving in a direction where she doesn't have a sectarian feud on her tail messing-up her stealth, so she can advance the dungeon.
>>48629>>48629>>48629Point to precisely where on this map she was located
>>48629Don't you see? The hibbity hooblah was of guards sounding an alarm, and they responded by bringing in a small horde
>Mummies can't speak hibbity HooblahGM described the rural folk of Washington state as being hibbity hooblah types. How much of an expert in languages are you to say orcs alone speak it?
>>48632GM used it in
>>47832 to refer to rural types. It can mean a lot of things, perhaps not just orcish. And if it is orcs, why would that mean they weren't in the direction of the horde?
>>48629GM makes it very explicit in
>>48486 >>48447 >>48494 that the hooblah sound is coming from the same direction as the "sound of dragging limbs." The hallway with Hooblah is B1, which was the source of the mummies and so forth.
>>48633Thats also how the orcs talked.
>>48631Then why did Infernius encounter it before Tracy, when it was Tracy's turn to move?
When he said "hibbity hooblah types" I think he meant SJWs.
Either way, I had Tracy Sneak off where she couldn't be seen, so she could get a Sneak Attack.
>>48632This.
Anyway, it's past midnight, so I'm turning in.
>>48635Well no shit?
>>48636Deleting your posts, because secrets piss me off, and deleting posts pisses you off. So we'll be even that way
Fuck you
>>48636Night.
>>48633Infernuis still loves you.
>>48637lol
I'll just make my turn again in the morning.
Goodnight.
>>48638Goodnight, m8.
>>48636>>48639For the twentieth time, the sounds were comming from the same direction the horde came. There was no sneak attack possible
>>48641Besides, you can't sneak attack the undead
>>48640*whispers into ears*
I'm gay\r
>>48643Why are you so intent on being a dick in how you play and approach this game?
>>48644>being a dickM8, as far as I can tell, you're the only one who has a problem with any of this. It sounds like a personal problem.
I could ask you why you need to delet/edit posts on an hourly to express your feelings, but I really don't care why.
>>48645What are you trying to accomplish by being in a different room (implausibly) to avoid a word of chaos?
>>48645>only one to have a problem with any of thisBecause you target me in your dickery
>>48646I thought she was in a different room/hall; I still think so. It wouldn't make a difference either way, because the affects wouldn't be noticeable.
>>48647How? Because I thought she was a different room?
To me, it just seems like you're too quick to take things personally.
>>48648Because I don't like to be conspired against or fooled
>>48649>conspired against>fooledIf I intended to do that, I wouldn't be so open about it.
>>48650Then what is it you're being open about? And why did you bring up the effects of the word of chaos then delete repeatedly?
>>48651I felt like I might have been incorrect and then hesitated, twice. Then I looked it up and found out I was correct the first time.
>what is it you're being open about?Literally nothing.
>>48654If you've organized it to where she's killing off my character's humans without his being able to react to it then I'm more pissed than you can imagine
>>48655Dude if he has a secret about his character its okay. People keep secrets from other characters and players to build tension and drama, making the story feel more real and important.
>>48657Tension and drama is one thing
>>48657Acting in a way completely adverse to my character goals without chance to respond is entirely different
>>48660Yea that would be different.
>>48661That's the reason I am concerned. Something like in
>>48656
>>48659This also seems rather suspicious.
>>48663They are your humans too. Men and women of the European stock, followers of Hitler or potential followers of hitler
>>48665There is nothing to be afraid of.
Go to bed.
Check'em.
>>48666I don't think you appreciate just how serious the issue is
>what supposed to have happened
Eat dinner
>what happened
Pass out on couch during movie
I have no excuses
>>48670You are forgiven.
I make that mistake all the time.
>>48670Those we're orcs earlier, right?
>>48672No, "Hibbity Hooblah" is just an insert for "random language that is not determinable".
>>48673Ah.
So where's Tracy headed towards?
>>48674I'll figure out in the morning...
>>48676I said there was nothing to be worried about, Anon.
Don't let it bother you. There's absolutely nothing to be afraid of.
*Faggot actually, unironically goes to bed, for real, this time*
>>48592This. It was supposed to be an easily-referenced post where I could step away for a moment, eat, and then resume. I will re-think/assess my strategy
>>48682Oh, perfect!
Why'd you use worst pony though?Could you um... use priestess padlock like in pic related?
>>48688Needs more Infernuis face.
>>48696That makes much more sense
Think there could be any Unholy weapons in this temple?
>>48702That's the good part about fighting ebil guys: they've usually got some badass equipment
Can non-wizard classes use staffs?
>>48704I noticed Use Magick Device could be applied to spell-trigger items, like staffs and wands. I just didn't know if you had to be a wizard to use it in the first place.
>>48705I'm not finding any prohibitions
>>48706I think only wizards use them because you have to roll a 20 Dc + the spell level if you don't have the spell on your list of spells you can cast.
>>48707Use magick device is actually one of the most useful skills for thieves (rogues and bards). With a 30 DC, you can even emulate another alignment. An ebil rogue can can use a holy weapon without penalty, if they roll high enough.
>>48705Wait, it's only a 20 DC to use a wand/staff. I confused that with the scroll DC.
>>48710Uh... Have you been to sleep at all?
Disrupting Weapon lasts 17 rounds. How many has it been since Infernius cast it? Just 2-3, right?
It's been way the hell longer than 12 to 18 seconds since you searched to prepare to open the door to the room that the rats were in before going to open the door where the golems were before going to the room where the snooze was before having a small horde attack before having a theological argument break out. Way the hell longer than 18 seconds
>>48715Tracy still hasn't made her turn though.
>>48716Yes she did. She went into the room with all the noise, same as everyone else
>>48716He's right. It would have taken a few rounds to determine what the refuse in the previous room was. The battle order was modified when engaging the golems because of party position. I'd say its been about 7-8 rounds.
>>48717Idk how long it's been then...
I just want to stab
something soon.
>>48718Ah.
Was Tracy's Search check able to find anything of interest in that room?
>>48719I hope these leftists are as ridiculously bureaucratic as the ones in our world: hopefully they'll have some useful documents.
>>48720Thats a great idea.
>>48719>>48720>>48718I too would like to know what kind of culture this is, and what kind of structure. I get that it's an undead culture, but there must be more to it than that
>>48719Nope. It was once a storage area of some sort, but its been left to disuse and rot.
>stabYeah, that's right where things are at. I admit I got a little distracted when the Hitler v. Elway exchange was happening, but I would have avoided falling asleep if I was more conscious of it.
As is, it IS Tracy's turn, as Torcuil had just cast Mass Cure Serious on himself and the first of the advancing group. Strangely, it appears to have had no effect.
>>48723There was no holy word or word of chaos?
>>48724Hmmm. Good point. There could have been the holy word of chaos OR the Mass Cure, but not both.
>>48725Ill do the other option that torc doesnt choose.
>>48725Didn't Torcuil cast Word of Chaos and Infernius mass wounds?
>>48723>it IS Tracy's turnCan I get a quick rundown on what's going on around her?
Do you immediately get Clerical Spells of your arcane spellcasting level from one level in Theiurge, or can you choose a different Divine Spellcasting class list?
>>48729Tracy casts Arcane spells, and having a few Druid spells wouldn't hurt.
[16d20 = 200]>>48503Tracy enters the room Thez is in, (notices a lever) while Thez continues to make sure its dead
The order after that was Infernius, Fae, Trump, Thez, Torc, and Tracy.
Which, if one goes off the declared actions, mean that:
>>48516Infernius casts Mass Cure Serious Wounds
Fae doesn't appear to do anything, except comment on Football.
>>48522Trump says the holy word (my bad) which strangely has no effect.
Then infighting
It would then be Thez' turn, just before Torcuil would have the chance to either 2nd cast Cure Serious, OR say "Shadilay".
>>48728Yes. While you're getting that rundown, Thez moves to intercept along the corner from the hallway, obliterating faces.
Its a whole mishmash of assorted undead, all lumbering forward, except for some ghosts and shadows that glide along the ground. From further down the hall can still be heard a distinct "Hibbity Hooblah"
>>48729It depends
[1d100 = 83]
Okay, maybe Thez doesn't obliterate faces
[1d20 = 12]
And her opponent's next attack is an automatic hit with a chance to crit,....
[1d20+24 = 28]>>48731>dependsDepends on what?
Tracy Sneakily moves down the hall towards the hibbiting.
Rolling to move Silently
[1d20+20 = 38][1d20+20 = 23]>>48734Asshe moves, she keeps her sense peeled
Rolling Spot and Listen
[1d20+24 = 39]>>48735And Search
>>48734The hallway is packed with undead, she's not going anywhere.
>dependsIs the newly-Theurge a sorcerer, wizard, or cleric (or variant; bard, etc)?
>>48736>>48735>>48734You know you're in a hallway with no room to move because there are so many enemies right?
>>48737Do you need levels in Cleric to cast said Clerical spells then?
>>48739No, but each class goes about spellcasting in a different manner. They would maintain that methodology (a wizard-theurge would still memorize and component their spells, a cleric-theurge would still pray for spells, and a sorcerer-theurge would still
ordinarily Xp have their limited selection of basically innate spells).
>>48740Tracy cast Arcane Spells as an Assassin, and Divine Spells as a Blackguard.
What could she get?
>>48741Assassins cast spells as a Bard does. Blackguards do as Clerics do.
>>48742So, no? She couldn't get anymore spells?
>>48735>>48736What did she find?
>>48739>>48741>>48743"Hey Tracy, since we are about to be killed by mass hordes of undead, and since you went through the effort of making infernius cast that spell, and since it is
your turn, could you please be a dear and pause from your metafagging long enough to kill something? It would be greatly appreciated"
>>48745I'm waiting for the Spot check. I still don't know what's in the room.
>>48746Everything is in the room. Swing your sword and you will hit something
>>48745*bleeds in Minotuar*
>>48743I'm not certain what you mean by "anymore spells".
If you mean "would she have access to more spells as a theurge/assassin/blackguard that makes julienne fries", yes. Her number of known/available spells would be limited, and I am not sure how the spellcasting would work at this moment.
>>48746The undead seem rather uniform. Identical almost. Not entirely, there's different types, but this mummy looks like that mummy, those skeletons are identical too. They're awfully evenly spaced come to think of it.
[3d20 = 22]>>48747What are these? Human skeletons?
Fug it.
Full round attack with sword on nearest thing.
[3d20 = 31]>>48750>Disrupting weapon kills it instantlyCleave
>>48751>>48752Cleave gives you one extra attack per round, not Six. And the target can do a DC12 will save
>>48749You mean human warrior Skeletons? Like 1 HD?
>>48754She has Great Cleave, and I doubt any of these have 17 hit dice.
>>48752>>48751Also, wait until GM has confirmed that the attack worked at all. Sure, disruptor normally works, but so does cure mass wounds, holy word, and word of chaos
>>48755Since when has she had great cleave?
>I doubt they have 17 hit dieHow do you know that? Are you GM? Be patient and don't steam roll
>>48757Oh, the first three attacks worked fine, splintering/decimating a zombie, a skeleton, and a ghoul. Tracy would have had a chance to cleave, but there are no more targets in range with the sword. The next row of 4 (a mummy, a,... wolf man?, a frankenstein, and a shadow) hasn't advanced yet. Tracy is almost in range of the corner and Thez' position.
Meanwhile, Thez is being attacked successfully. She is bitten by a zombie, flailed on by a mummy, and gashed by a skeleton.
>>48749"These undead arent real."
>>48761I will on my turn and see what happens.
[1d20 = 18]
Snek's turn, then Infernius'
>>48762Infernius succeeds on his spot check
>>48763I don't think Torc is here.
>>48764Funny.
*dispel magic*
>>48766The spell causes the procession of undead and such to dissipate in a shadowy puff that dominoes row after row as it makes its way down the hall. As it reaches the spell's perimeter, Infernius can see that they're coming from around the corner to the left, but can't see past that.
Thez, who was in the process of preparing to beat the zombie with the femur of the skeleton, looks around foolishly, and a tad disappoint.
Fae, then Trump, Thez, Torc(?) and Tracy.
>>48767Does that make the hallway clear for passage?
[1d20+16 = 20][1d20+26 = 46]>>48771In proper succession, Fae and Trumpaladin advance forth slowly nearing the end of the room but not quite to the corner. Trumpaladin detects evil and Fae spot and listen checks
[1d20+11 = 31]
I have returned.
Snek shoots an undead fucker
>mfw I just realized I've never even once applied Tracy's dexterity bonus to her Initiative rolls
>>48776Is Thez the big T?
>>48775I don't bother with Thez' either
>>48774>xXx_369mlgnoscopesnek_xXxAlso, on the giant constrictor stats it says "base grapple +23" des this mean snek gets a +23 bonus on grapple?
>>48780No, you add his strength bonus to that number to get his grapple bonus
>>48773They're not evil, but they don't act like their appearances. Their behavior is mostly a caricature of their "creature" type (whether zombie, or skeleton, or w/e) and they have a shadowy translucence, almost imperceivable but unmistakable upon examination. They're still whole and solid somehow, but they seem less substantial.
>>48780That's correct.
So Trump and Fae are side by side advancing. Are they closing to striking distance?
>>48782I thought the things were dispelled...
>>48781>>48782Does the 23 invlude strength though, or no.
And was there anything in the hall for snek to shoot?
>>48782Let me rethink my strategy then
>>48784Actually, I did the math, and yes, that 23 is the totality of his grapple bonus. It's his base attack bonus of +8, his size modifier of +8, and his strength modifier of +7 added together
Whoops, nevermind, I misread the post. Alright. Pretty much everyone is at/around the corner.
"This should be a piece of cake!" Thez says, darting around everyone.
>>48783Only to a limited range
>>48784Yes and yes.
[/b]POP[/b] rings out as Snek busts a cap, a skeleton down the hall takes a headshot. Though expressionless, Snek somehow looks satisfied.
[3d20 = 28]>>48786Let's have Fae Pounce on her round, and Trumpaladin dispell magic after moving forward
[16d20 = 171]
Thez does an anime-esque roaring charge, attempting an overrun. Defenders get attacks of opportunity. Rolling essentially to see how far she gets. They're spaced alternating 3/row-4/row.
>>48786Snek shakes his tail to dissapate the smoke and looks at Torc with an expresion of "I'd like to see you do that"
Torc ignores him
>>48788>1
[16d20 = 161]>>48787He was just detecting evil though,....
rolling for more attempts to stop her
[16d20 = 179]
Still going,....
>>48790I though he was away from the corner and all of the creatures had been dispelled
>>48792I apologize. Well, Trump and Fae can have attacked the advancing ones, but otherwise Thez just ran them all over and managed to run into a wall.
>>48793Did word of Chaos get cast last night?
I'm hoping no.
Also, what is everyone's alignments for when I use it
Torc: CG, Snek: CN, Infernius: CG, and that's all I know
As Thez runs down the hall, striking the multitude of opponents in a sprinting double-lariat, she manages to deftly avoid each incoming strike and with each strike from her (now that she knows they're shadow illusions) the fabrications disappear in a puff of smoke. Curious to see how long she can keep this up, she glances back in satisfaction to see how far she's progressed, and runs head-first into a wall.
Thez: Neutral
>>48796>True NeuralNot at all what I was expecting
To Trump andd Fae's left is a door, and from around the corner Fae hears someone mutter something, followed by rapid footsteps.
>>48797She was Neutral Evil, but she's transitioning as the story develops
>inb4
>>48800I thought she was Lawful Evil?
>>48801Nope, she started this boot NE. She is generally lawful in demeanor (except when eating faces), but her disposition is neutral. Over time (removing the fiendishness, other experiences, I'nis) she has trended away from direct evil. She's still capable of it, but she's less inclined.
>>48802You
Definitely said she was lawful evil. And she's a monk, so...
>>48802>cause InferniusDamn it thats adorable
>>48800>>48802>>48796>tfw thez changed alignments and is no longer ebil
>>48803Actually, now I distinctly remember her saying she was glad to be Neutral Ebil the first time she watched Tracy >rape Trumpaladin.
>>48806Tracy has never raped Trumpaladin successfully
>>48803Monks don't lose their powers like Paladins do. Although she may never again advance as a Monk, since she's multiclass.
The downside is, they can't be atoned like paladins, clerics, or druids.
>>48807Keep telling yourself that.
>>48813Never. Not even once
>>48815I can help fix that
>>48815I distinctly recall that when i first joined you were getting raped.
>>48819What movie were you watching that night?
>>48821It was
It, and Trumpaladin was not raped
>>48820Don't make me punish Tracy
Not in that way
>>48822I mean we all saw it happen
>>48823>>48824No, didn't happen. And if it did, there was no penetration
Can Tracy see what's behind that door now?
No. No. Nope. Never happened. Even if it did, there was no described penetration, so no rape
>>48830Go away you troll
>>48830He threatened to do it for the first time in
>>2027 →>>48831>implying >rape has to be penetration>>48830Can Tracy have her turn now?
>>48827Are you not interested in the spell caster who is running away?
>>48833I would, if she could open the freaking door.
>>48834I think he ran around the corner of the hallway
>>48834But he didn't go through the door, he is around the corner of the hallway
>>48832Rape definitely requires penetration. Otherwise It's just unlawful imprisonment or kidnapping, with probable battery
[1d20+20 = 36][1d20+20 = 32]>>48837Tracy pursues up to the corner
Spot, and Listen to detect danger around corner, before turning.
[1d20+24 = 31]>>48839And Search
>>48841>All those squaresTracy's land speed is 100, right? Can she catch him?
>>48842You don't have infinite speed just cause. If you want to declare she is running, then declare she is running
>>48842If it was a straight race for speed, yes. She has to stop each time to listen which way they went tho. And its Snek's turn.
>>48843Her land speed is 40 at base +10 because mount buff, and doubled by her horseshoes.
>>48844What did Tracy do during her turn? Is she still where she was earlier?
>>48845Where are you getting that base land speed? The base land speed is 30 for most medium creatures. I don't think paladin buff applies while walking bipedaly. She took off the super shoes to don the zephyr
>>48846Yes, sorry, I keep forgetting the pic
>>48847Ponies move at 40 ft.
She's moving on all fours, using her animated claws to hold her sword.
>>48849You just pulled that out of your ass, and you've been pulling new bullshit out of your ass every single round of play
>>48850>pull that out of your assNah, ponies going at 40ft makes sense.
Torc can pull leprechauns out of his ass though
>>48850I've operated under the assumption that she was as fast as a normal pony since the beginning.
Why would she be slower?
If centaurs can move at 50, ponies should move at at least 40.
>>48851As I recall, it was 'fire them out like a garden hose'.
>>4885340 seems perfectly reasonable, especially next to her speed when Cauchemar
>>48853Because smaller creatures move more slowly. Dwarfs and halflings move at 20ft, for instance
>>48856"Unless they're crazy-haxxor monks." ^_^
>>48854He can't keep claiming new shit every single encounter
>>48856Regular ponies are medium sized. Tracy is as big as a normal pony.
>>48856Yea but tracy is a little pastel colored horse though.
>>48859A normal pony is 600 pounds. Dwarfs are medium sized and they go 20 ft
>>48860Ponies should move faster.
Ever other race gets racial abilities.
>>48861That's why I thought she'd be smol.
And dwarves are THICC-built, with short legs.
>doesn't see why this matters when the sound of something running away is the present stimuli.
Its Snek's turn, followed by Infernius, Fae, Trump, etc.
>>48862Of course, but you're taking advantage of the fact that it hasn't been specified to just declare racial abilities as convenient, be it size, speed, natural armor, language, listen and smell checks, and so forth
>>48857"You best monk me know."
>>48863Snek makes a smell
[1d20 = 9] and listen/spot
[1d20+9 = 10] check
>>48864I thought her size was smol. I
know her speed is 40.
It makes sense. Let it go.
>>48865"Technically speaking, the best one alive."
>>48866From his position, Snek would not know anything more than what Tracy has already learned, except that whatever is running away is the first living thing the party has encountered in the temple.
>>48868Snek communicates that to Torc
"Yo guys? That thing isn't an undead"
>>48867No, because you cheat
constantly even as you enage in rules lawyering when it's in your favor.
>>48868>first living thing the party has encountered in the templeCan Tracy use her Eyes of Doom to make a gaze attack (Doom) at it while she's running?
>>48872No, it had already turned some way before Tracy made the corner. Also its not Tracy's turn.
>>48873Infernuis bull rushes after the guy.
>>48875Probaly. Could Tracy make a relf to get out the way?
>>48875He'll apologize later.
>>48876Isn't he around the corner though? Wouldn't Infernius have to stop first?
>>48876Tracy has Improved Evasion and Improved Uncanny Dodge. I think she should be able to.
>>48877Sorry, but what's his movement? Each square represents 5'.
Does Infernius hit a wall? Is Tracy run over? Let's settle this by dice rolls
>>48879Those don't help under the circumstances
>>48882She could make a reflex save to avoid the bull rush.
>>48883Alright, roll then
>>48880Base i suppose.
Although i feel Minotuars should get a bonus while bull rushing.
>>48883Yes, but she could do that anyways
>>48885They get a bonus on their attack roll yes, but not to movement. Infernius would have the movement to bowl over Tracy and round the corner, but not continue to pursue until next round.
>>48889>>48888Sorry tracys faggot, Infernuis will make it up to her later.
>>48891>>48889*bull rushes after the fleshy goy*
[1d20+14 = 32]>>48884Reflex roll
>>48885Is she
targeting Tracy, or just trying to overrun her?
Fae and Trump are next, who are standing next to a door. Infernius gets hot-headed and charges down the hallway, bearing his single horn. Its a good thing there's only one, cuz otherwise Tracy would've gotten gored just now, instead of getting knocked about a bit by the buffoonish minotaur who isn't watching where he's going.
>>48894Alright, Fae's speed with the Bracers is 160 ft in a charge, which because of the Pounce special attack lets her do a full round attack at the end of it. If she's turning a corner that should slow her down quite a bit, but not entirely I think. If she can grapple in a pounce, then Grapple. If she cannot, then full round attack if she makes it
>>48893Im trying to chase down the guy running away.
>>48895Fae could only charge up to Infernius' position, unless she's pouncing on
him.
>>48897Could she make a dexterity check to turn the corner and continue the charge, with maybe 30 or 50 feet taken off her possible 160, and slam into something/someone if she fails?
>>48896Give Tracy some time, she's faster and has the Trap sense.
>>48898You need a feat for that.
Thez meanwhile, has almost fully regained her senses, still clutching a large lump on her head with both hands. "Hey guys, there's a staircase over here."
>>48897Either way, Trumpaladin will run to the end of the hall, to try to catch up. Withdraw rope of entanglement from the tie at the end of it
>>48899And what feat is that, pray tell? Seems to me like she could jump on the wall and bounce off, and succeed or fail at the task depending on the dice roll
>>48900>Over hereOver where?
>>48901>stairs"Cool, anyone wanna go up?"
Torc realizes only sSnke and Thez are nearby
"Oh"
I guess it's plausible that the magic caster used ghost sounds to make it seem like he escaped down a different path
>>48902End of the hallway, past the corner. The big T on the map.
>>48903Down
>>48905"Down, my bad. Thez since the others are doing fuck knows what you wanna investigate?"
>>48901While charging? Tracy had to wait at the corner even at only her base speed.
The feet to turn while Running is Fleet of Foot. Requires the Run feat though.
>>48908She charging not running, and you could have done the same if you asked for a dice roll
>>48906>>48908I see. Then move forward and turn the corner in a move action at adjusted speed of 80ft
>>48906Will Tracy have to Tumble through Fae and Infernius to get ahead now? She'll go the other direction if there isn't room for her to move.
>>48907"Might as well, it looks like they're going to be busy."
>>48911Yes. Thez proceeds carefully down the staircase, vanishing into thin air as she does so (hiding in plain sight cuz shadows)
>>48912Fuck it, then. I'm not slowing down.
Tracy changes her mind and decides to follow Thez.
>>48911I thought that corner was where everyone was?
>>48913Aren't you at the corner?
>>48912Torc trys riding Mr. Snek towards the staircase
[1d20+2 = 8]
>>48914Yes, but now she's got Fae and Infernius on top of her, trying to scramble around the corner, climbing over eachother.
Tracy will go the other direction.
>>48916But the T on the map is at that corner. It's the same direction
>>48915Uh, dex makes that a 10
>>48917That's where Thez is. The mage fled around the corner.
>>48919Yes, the stairs is around the corner
>>48921What other corner?
>>48922The one Tracy, Fae and Infernius are just standing at.
Tracy stopped there because she had to turn the corner, then Fae and Infernius did the same.
>>48923Yes. Isn't that where Thez is?
>>48924No. Thez is by the stairs at the far end of the hall, marked by T. She's 20 ft away.
>>48925Isn't that where the mage fled to?
>>48926No, he turned the corner. He didn't go down the stairs.
>>48927But T is the corner
>>48928But who is on first?
>>48928T is Thez. Thez went down the stairs.
>>48929Is it Tracy's turn yet?
>>48932Well that's not what I thought it was at all
>>48932Low many turns would it take for Tracy to back-track and explore that room, while Infernius and Fae charge?
>>48931"Hey Tracy, I'm confused as all fuck. Want to open the door on this room before I do?"
>>48931Yes, as Torcuil is riding snek
>>48935In a single round. You mean the previous room to the right? The one that says CB in one corner?
>>48936[angry pony noises]
>'Two are on top of me! Who's going where?!'>>48937I meant the door everyone just charged past.
>>48938Likewise a round, and that seems where
>>48936 is going too. You can open the door, certainly.
>>48938>"I have no idea, but I can say that I think we were outrun. We'll get 'em next time. In the meantime, let's clear this room we just passed. It could have cool loot, it could be a location they can flank us from, and for all we know, the mage fled into it"
Let's get this straight WHO IS CHASING THE MAGE?
I was going to have Tracy chase him, but I don't want her to get nearly-trampled again.
>>48940>we were outrunHorseshit. He could move at 80 ft tops, with spells 'n shit.
We're just disorganized.
>>48941Neither
Torc or Snek are chasing
>>48939Sure, she'll do that while Fae and Infernius pursue the mage.
>>48942You go with Thez.
>>48943I was planning on it
I have Infernius and Fae in pursuit, I have Tracy and Trump checking out the door with the purple circle, I have Torcuil surfing on Snek toward the staircase, and I have Thez sneaking down the stairs.
>>48941Trumpaladin can't run, he can only do heavy fighting. I'm going to have him clear that room in the center of the map
>>48945>surfing>Hawii Five-O theme plays
>>48946He can help fight whatever's behind the door after Tracy opens in then.
>>48949Done. I'm betting on the sounds of footsteps being Ghost Sound anyways. That Mage is either hiding by now or is gone I will bet you
>>48950That magnitude of shadow magick was either an illusionist wizard, or an uber-powerful Bard. I'm guessing the earlier option.
>>48949Tracy tries the door, and finds it is quite heavy. She is able to open it, but with significant effort, and not quick enough for surprise. What appears is a room full of red-headed ghosts, holding ghostly mugs. Old and destroyed furniture lines the room. The ghostly forms turn toward the now open door, and music bursts forth from the room. Several gasps can be heard from within the room.
[1d20+7 = 14]>>48952I was going to make a Listen check first, but sure..
Rolling to rebuke, because I feel like trying it.
>>48953Cer clerical level for rebuking is 1, so creatures with 2HD should be affected...
>>48954Pls turn.What's your charisma with all of that swag?
>>48956His Charisma is 21, which is a modifier of +5. The Circlet of persuasion adds +3 to charisma based checks, but probably not turn checks
I'm going to have to leave some time in the next hour, probably.
>>48958*hides behind leg*
>>48954Essentially, yes
>>48956Nope. Except for a couple little ones in the outskirts, who are just scared, a wave of Tracy's rebuke wafts ineffectively over the gingers.
And so then, an ear-piercing REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE echoed forth from the room, in strangely perfect pitch and unison.
>>48961So.... what saving throw should I roll?
>>48960D'aww, cute
>>48962You're immune to fear.
>>48962Will save, for everyone
[1d20+19 = 26]Rolling
+5 base +5 charisma (divine grace) +4 resistance (cloak) +1 Luck (stone) +4 Wisdom
>>48963I'll go with that answer if I roll a 1
>>48964Is everyone in range?
[1d20 = 18]>>48964Does that include me?
Rolling just in case.
>>48964Torc: [1d20+11 = 28]
Snek: [1d20+9 = 19]
[1d20+12 = 19]>>48961Rolling a Will save
Extra +4 Morale bonus because Trumpaladin's Aura of Courage in her vincinity
>>48967Not fucking bad.
>inb4 snek doesn't have 9 will, how does Torc has 11?Familiars can use theirs masters saves if they are better. Torc also gets an extra +2 cause Staff of Power
[1d20 = 15]>>48965Everyone. The sound cuts through everything, and it explains the heavy walls and door.
Rolling for Thez, cuz it looks like everyone passed except Fae's roll is absent.
[4d3+4 = 11]
Dice is how much damage per round the constant wailing causes those hearing it.
[1d20+11 = 17]>>48970Not sure how to calculate Fae's bonus, but let me try
>>48971Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck
Would turning someone to stone stop them from recieving damage?
>>48973\\Probably, but they'd be stone, and it's not your turn.
Attempts to sleep.
If i cant ill be back.
>>48974Stone doesn't matter, Torc can fix that
>>48974>"Do you recommend a turn check next round, or melee combat?">>48975Good luck
>>48976Leave me alive to kill these though
[1d4+4 = 6]>>48972Oooh ouch, Fae fails her saving throw. So that's 18dmg/round for Fae, and she's shaken for dice rounds.
>>48974Well, its Snek's turn, and they're almost to the staircase now.
>>48977>'H-hell if I know... I think I should've just closed the door...'
>>48978Take control of Infernuis if you would.
>>48978Aww....
Definitely making her a caparison of resistance
>>48979>"Too late for that now"
>>48977I wasn't gonna touch Trump, but when my 2 characters have 56 and 28 hp damage over 10 isn't great.
>>48978Snek slithers faster than he's ever before. And makes a spot
[1d20+9 = 23] and smell
[1d20 = 12] check when he reahhes the staircase.
I figure listen would be pointless with that
>REEEEEE-ing
>>48982*positions self between legs*
>'W-wanna run?'
>>48984>"Hang on, let me kill these soulless red heads first. If you're scared, I've got spells that reduce damage from energy"
>>48980K. The REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE makes it impossible to track by sound anyway
<whooooof> Thez appears next to Tracy and pulls the door shut, cutting out the sound."Well, we can be sure that the whole building knows that we're here,...."
>>48983C-can I add listen to that?
I g2g...., sorry..
'
Feel free to use Tracy for search and whatnot.
>>48987You motherfuckers, with your multi-checks per round,... have I mentioned a character can only perform one per round?
>>48990No, you haven't. Forget the smell check then.
But you did say combining things like spot/listen is possible
>>48988Its alright. I'm looking at ways to streamline or make the game run more efficiently, but given the medium and the nature, I don't know that it could be accellerated too much.
>>48991Technically its both, the rules are unclear on it.
I'll take the intervening period to comment; it has occurred to me that there is room for improvement in administering a dungeon crawl. In spite if preparation, the illustration and playing-out of the scene is a bit cumbersome compared to a more open-world environment. Additionally I'm looking at modifying the rules, to enable for more rapid transition from sneaky or speedy ex[ploration to fighting and back. I like the initiated movement/combat system, where there is an order even in null-attack phases, but it needs work. Thoughts?
>>48993We can try it and see if you'd like
>>48992>I don't know that it could be accelerated too much.Acceleration is good imo, so long as the characters can do something productive in the mean time.
>>48993Yeah, it could use a bit of improvement..
Idk how, but I'm open to anything that might speed things up.
Fae and Infernius are still chasing the mage, right?
Can Tracy and Trump go after them too?
Tracy assumes her monstrous shape between Brad's legs, so he doesn't have to use up an action to ride; and then she promptly goes off towards the Mage's direction at full speed.
Hey, the Gestapo/Generals are positioned outside of the entrance, right?
>>48996Sort of, the Ghestapo should be on the docks, and the Generals in range for ranged weapons
Hey, I just realized that the Fabricate spell could be used to shape that glassteel into weapons.
>>48997He can't teleport out, and the hole is the onlu
apparent exit for now. With Tracy's Search ability, we have an okay chance at getting him, if we catch up to him in these next couple turns.
>>48999Trumpaladin has the rope. But he
can hide, and more importantly, he can retreat to an entire congress worth of Lichs and vampires
>>48996Trumpaladin takes 10 on a ride check to mount demon sex horse
>>48998>Ahhh, the way>>48999Not actually true. Notice Thez has had no trouble Dimension Door'ing around ever since entering.
>>49001Is that what "whoof" means? Ever action post with Thez has "whoof" in it but I've never identified if it means she's teleporting, dimension dooring, just moving really fast, using haste, or if it's just bullshitted haxx or what
>>49001Can she Door in-and-out of the building itself though? The dimensional lock only block extraplanar travel in-and-out of the designated space, if I'm correct.
>De weyDas rite, brudda!
>>49002She's a horizon walker, so she has dimensional door as a spell-like ability.
>>49002<whoooof> is both the sound and the visual blurring/distortion effect as Thez uses her (mostly) Horizon Walker abilities to be wherever. Its almost like the "whoosh" sound of a large fan-blade.>>49003She hasn't tried doing it out of the building, but meta it would work. The dimensional lock is no longer in effect, spoiler alert.
>>49005>dimensional lock is no longer in effectShit...
><whoooof> is both the sound and the visual blurring/distortionI thought she Silenced it with a meta-magick feat though?
When you silence a spell, does stuff like air-displacement still make noise?
>>49003I HAVE FOUND DA QUEEN MY BRUDDAS
>>48998*makes list of mundane, non-magical items to be made of glassteel*
>>49005Fuck. Does Torc have anyway of knowibg that since he cast the spell?
And is it possible to drain the temple of magic?
>>49010>is it possible to drain the temple of magic?Everything is possible, beyond level 30 that is...
>>49011>>49010If I could siphon unholy power out of this building, kike gassoline out of a car, I would.
I'd like to investigate this place to see how it's been unhallowed: if it has a nucleaus of enchantment, or if every grain of material itself has had the spell cast on it.
>>49007Silencing removes the verbal component, but not the residual sound of the effect.
>>49008>CLICK-CLICK-CLICK-CLICK-CLICK-CLICK-CLICK-CLICK-CLICK-CLICK-CLICK-CLICK-CLICK>>49010>knowingNope, I just wanted to give the players a little foreshadowing for what they're headed toward as we venture to close for the week.
>>49013Ah shit, this won't end well...
But how abaout draining magic? Could that be done?
Not sure how I'd do it, but I'm sure I could find a way
>>49014You'd probably need a Spellcraft DC of at least 40, and a week or two to develop the spell, but It'd probably be Conjuration-type seed to drain energy from a place of power, and transmutation-type and convert it to something else useful.
After epic level, you can make your own spells that can do almost anything.
>>49015<Cconverts it into a waifu for Mr. SnekIs that useful?
>>49015Wait,
>DC of at least 40 That's actually possible, the time is a problem but I can currently roll a max of 41
>>49016That be one super-powerful, super ebil waifu.
I think it's a great idea.
>>49017I didn't read very much about epic spellcasting
because it makes me jelly, but it could be higher.
Actually, the Energy seed is Evocation, combined with Transform that'd be a Spellcraft DC of 40, but that's the full extent of what I know about Epic Spellcasting.
I think you might need a feat too.
>>49018Actually, maybe closer to 60 DC, if you add the conjure seed.
>>49019How much would it be to not drain
all energy but just enough for a second snek?
>>49020>inb4 GM calls me a fucking idiot, says no, and teleports Torc and Snek to fight enemys alone cause of my stupidity
>>49020>>49021You couldn't even fathom something like that before Epic level anyway.
>>49021Idk what ur thinking, GM has popcorm
>>49022Buzzkill....
>>49023Wait what?
>>49024Brb for about 15 min
>>49022I kind of like your previous idea. Mount horse/in a move action then spur horse with a standard action (Trumpaladin) and Change shape with move action then fly down hall at 110 using the high flying maneuverability of the cauchemar to turn corners with only a small movement penalty
>>49026If she's between his legs, he's
technically already mounted, so all she has to do id walk forward a bit while transforming and you can skip the action altogether.
>>49026>using the high flying maneuverability of the cauchemar to turn corners with only a small movement penaltyFucking love those phantom powers.
/beststeed/
>>49027If GM will pass that, then sure. Move forward in a move action and turn down the hall, then turn right (left from our perspective) down the only hallway he could have gone down, and go down that way until we either find him, have explored all the halls, or something attacks. If he never went down that hall then Thez and Tocuil have the other possibility covered. If he is spotted, then Trumpaladin can use the rope to capture him as Trachemar prepares a grapple or intimidate or something a bit sturdier to keep him
>>49028I know right
>>49029He's a mage: expect something wacky to happen before they get close.
>>49025>1 hour agoWell, I guess GM is gone for the night
>>49032No, I came back and am here, but how much farther are we gonna go toinight? I figured why start the car to drive a block?
>>49033Nah thats understandable, I just wanted to ask; if Torc failed the drain magic to make snek, would it kill him?
>>49034It looks like you're contemplating the bride of Snekenstein yes?
>>49034>Epic spell failure/miscalculationYou'd
wish it killed you.
Remember that video with the skeletons?
>>49035Couldn't he also just craft a second python rod?
Then he could have them curl around his magick cattle prod, like Hermes's sceptor.
Then he could graft wings of flying onto them, and make them aesthetic mini-coatles.
>>49037Actually, a Viper rod would be better, but you have to be ebil to make that.
>>49035In a nutshell
>>49037I was planning on somehow magically binding Mrs. Snek to the staff too so it
kinda looked like that when in staff form
>>49039>Staff turns into ebin two-headed couatl>Like a wyrm rod, only more creative
>>49040You know what? Give me me a minute cause now I have a great fucking idea.
AUTSIM LEVELS: MAXIMUM
>>49041Oh dear.
So unless otherwise objected, shall we consider this a shit-posting, banter, and non-story dialogue and interaction until next weekend?
>>49042Yes
Is huge larger or smaller than giant?
>>49043Giant isn't a size class.
>>49044Is a giant constrictor huge then?
>>49042But but... I wanted to ride the Trachemar and lasso the mage. Or just reveal every hallway on that level
>>49045Yes.
It's between 16 and 32 ft long, and weighs between 2 and 16 tons.
That's a YUGE margin though, so Idk how big he really is.
>>49046This desu..
I guess it just can't be helped...
Found it
http://dandwiki.com/wiki/SRD:Couatl>>49047I think we came to an agreement of about 35ft and 800lbs.
>>49049After some looking and consideration, nah I don't want a Couatl.
Now a huge viper is a different question though.
>>49050It'd be a pain and a half to craft anyway.
putting wings on him could be cool though.
>>49046The mage seems to have gotten away, as the banshee-room kinda threw off the ability to hear which direction he went
>>49047It does not weigh 2 tons
>>49051>put very tiny but powerful wings on Snek>snek just starts hovering around with comically tiny wings by his head and tail
>>49052But that hallway ends and turns just one direction. Can't we just run down every hallway?
>>49053>pic>>49054Trump could, and is not restricted from doing so.
>>49054We'll find him.
I'm not leaving this dungeon empty-handed.
>>49056Want Trachemar to walk through every hallway and reveal the map, searching for traps as she goes?
>>49057Stealth is already fugged, and she gets slightly better searches in that state, so that's better the way to go, I guess.
Also, she likes being ridden.
>>49058*pets horsey*
*detects evil*
Because the only other thing he's capable is readying for melee combat"If we can't find this guy, we'll at least know every hallway and doorway on this level, and that's worth the time"
>>49058>>49059>Seriously considering a mounted charge down a temple corridorTrump roll a riding check
>>49059"I hope the next room isn't filled with screaming kids..."
>>49060*Shrugs in horse*
She wouldn't say no to it.
>>49060Not a charge, just walking technically
Rolling
I think he can allot 10 points to Ride, and the Shoes give 10>>49061"Especially those damned Gingers
\r
>>49063Fine then, walking is easy, enabling Trump to ready-attack while Tracy advances both.
Technically they were banshees btw
>>49063>Walking at 100 ftKek.
She could also Move Silently at 50 ft (without penalty), if need be.
>>49064"Fucking Irish. First they chase us out of Ulster, then they come fight for Lincoln and invade our homes, and now this"
>>49065>>49064I think that if she devotes both the move action and the standard action in her round, she can cover twice the distance without needing a run or charge
>>49066You can control her movements during your turn.
>>49067*moves horsey down hallway mage was last heard going, then directs her right (left looking at the map) down the hallway*
[1d20+27 = 33]>>49068Search check, to detect traps, passages, etc
>>49069... Or we could wait 'till morning..
Sorry about that..
>>49068For reference, locations in pic may vary from current, purple ?? is where the mage's escape is in question.
>>49071Pic related would be my course of action, letting the Trachemar search at each turn
>>49071>in questionDid he flee around the corner? Or did he just vanish.
Both Tracy and Infernius should be able to see clearly to the end of the hall, if I'm not mistaken.
>>49073He didn't just vanish, he went one way or the other.
Meanwhile, I'm about 10 minutes away from going to bed.
>>49074Alright.
Goodnight, m8.
>>49075You too. Will bake eventually.
"Fighting!"
