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.

Snek slithers faster than he's ever before. And makes a spot [1d20+9 = 23]

Its 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.

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?

Acceleration is good imo, so long as the characters can do something productive in the mean time.
>>48993

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?

He 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.

Can 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.

<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.
>>49003
She hasn't tried doing it out of the building, but meta it would work. The dimensional lock is no longer in effect, spoiler alert.

When you silence a spell, does stuff like air-displacement still make noise?

If 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.

You'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.
