This thread continues the ongoing saga.
For those new/unfamiliar, this particular Game is based on Dungeons and Dragons 3.5ed core rules with more references and add-ons than you can shake the random stick at, and further additions are available upon request.
New players are ALWAYS welcome, but please don't be a faggot (lit or fig).

"You needn't hurry. The building is now ours again, including the spoils (which were ours to begin with, but game resets and all). From here, we can go wherever we need/want. And I, I can fire up the forge!" Lenos says with a wink.
And THAT concludes the session.
The party now has access to literal piles of gold and gems, a variety of strewn about items, not to mention an entire facility (you thought the pyramid was big!) with elements that were not include-able in the upper section.
Yeah, I'll tell you all about it, but Tracy needs to sleep (and so do I). Besides, this thread is well past bump-limit.

Oh no you don't, you're still in the building! Also, you haven't explored the lower reaches, you'll like what you find there.

Oh there's LOTS. Don't feel bad about not being able to play, though technically it is your fault Thez had to speak Blasphemy, as a well placed "Dispel Magic" would have removed the Queen's shield and allowed the party to gang-rape-kill her. No worries though, a wall of force does not block sonic attacks, and like I indicated, Thez wasn't going to leave without her record contract.
The contract doesn't do anything mind you, but it represents her most glowing achievement in the last reset, where she rolled a 20 on her performance check (which, when added to her perform ability, acrobatics, magical embellishments, and such came out to like a 48). It is because of that contract and performance that a good 1/3 of the piles of riches are even there.
Now for some clarification and explanation.
Thez does not think Starlight Glimmer is best pone, but in the infernal realms (where Blasphemy was first molded and crafted), the general perception is that she is. There are entire levels in the Abyss dedicated to Starlight Glimmer, so while Thez doesn't care either way, she does know Blasphemy (and has the infernal nature to make it work).
The teleport lock on the treasury didn't actually belong to the Queen, it is more of a security measure to make sure that no one poofs in and starts jacking shit. Now that the treasury is reclaimed, one can readily go to and from with ease. Atop the treasury up a winding staircase is an expansive fighting ring, designed to train, practice, spar, and whatever. There are holodeck proportions to it so players can practices spells, techniques, strategy, etc. on pseudo-enemies, but usually players use this area to beat eachother about the face and torso.
Down a similar set of stairs from the Treasury, the ordinarily somewhat translucent glass of the tower blackens and takes on a matte-texture. This leads to the Forge (which, btw, is where Lenos is). FOr the record, forging shit is Lenos' favorite thing, and the one thing that he (with exception) will do essentially for free just cuz.
The outside of the building is enspelled to allow one to walk across its surface as though wearing gravity boots or some shit,... just don't jump.
And, because the guy who designed the building - brilliant though he was - was a little off in the head, there is no actual door connecting the upper level and the lower level, one instead has to walk outside the door in the middle (formerly the section of tunnel that connected to the ant hive) and up to the pinnacle where the dais is. The dais was originally the magic user section of the building.
Don't worry, I'm gonna do up the associated maps.
And SPEAKING of maps, since the building is flying now, I'm also going to finish the world map. The building isn't THAT fast, but it allows you to be at Port Barry, or that place to the south, or any adjacent area in a matter of minutes (as opposed to hours by foot, or a half hour by mount).

The treasury consists of about 30,000 ounces of gold and assorted other precious metals (platinum, silver, copper, bronze, brass, titanium, adamantite, cold iron, etc. etc.), including some golden-steel (sourced from a particular type of enemy that I can personally guarantee will show up at some point) that appears to be giant armor (not of a giant mind you). There's also an assortment of gems very much like that Rarity gem-finding episode. Incidentally, the next time the party sees Thez, her 'outfit' will be much more over-the-top opulent, fashioned to almost look like a pair of jester's tights. with shiny mirrored plates accenting various spots, which themselves look like windows through which you can see cherry-blossoms shifting lazily in the wind, but for now she's still curled up around her contract sleeping most soundly.
As for magic items there are:
A Rod of Cancellation
A Rod of Metamagic - Silent Spell
A Scroll of Water Breathing
A Ring of Improved Jumping
A 30' length of Rope of Entaglement (Hang Yourself!)
2 Golden-Steel Masterwork Bastard swords
1 Golden-Steel Rapier
1 Golden-Steel Orcish Double-Axe
and 1 Golden-Steel Greatsword that's way too big for anyone to use, but also looks like its missing something (technically finished, but technically not).

The Golden-steel weapons are all masterwork, but currently non-magical (they'd been crafted but not enchanted at the time of the reset).

Its a 14" rod of graphite appearance that when used (deliberately) will cancel out any magical item of non-artifact status (so it won't work on Vandereim for example).
The ring grants +10 to jump checks.
You're not proficient with rapiers (so -2 to attacks, but with the +1 its only a -1, and it can easily be further augmented).

Lets assume you can stop her for a moment, or that much of it wasn't hers to begin with. Hypothetically speaking.
Where do you plan to store it? We're talking piles here, and an ounce of metal = 4 bits. Meaning, there's about 120000 shekels present.

Furthermore, she doesn't need large gems, she prefers the tiny ones (it gives that sequin-look). Larger gems poke and chafe anyway.
>>5614
Thats fine,... I still think you're gonna fail though, especially considering that when you guys finally end up at the city where the record contract was signed she can rake in 1k a show without rolling a skill check (and increasingly more if she does) as long as she can change her costume,... but sure knock yourself out. ^_^

I'll take the Meta magic (3 staff limit)

They can, but no one has ever bothered to try yet and I haven't been want to give away juicy bits like that. None of the gems are magical at the moment.
The meta-magic ROD allows the user to cast 3 spells per day silently (either if silenced or if wanting to be sneaky).

Actually, I should clarify. Titanium (Mythril, sorry I said it wrong, but titanium is mythril in D&D) and Adamantite have particular properties. Adamantite is heavier than steel, but twice as hard (which means damage reduction for armor, or negating damage reduction for weapons). Mythril is lighter than steel, and slightly harder (minimal damage reduction, or minimal reduction negation, but vastly less cumbersome. Think frodo's shirt in LOTR).

Well since I think time is still playing in-universe, Trump has instructed Lenos to take the pyramid to Port Barry, as well as to look out for any Eldridge Abominations summoned by the bait earlier, where he has begun the process of turning Port Barry into the source of man power for later operations. His first act is to contract a stadium-cathedral, besides recruit townsfolk to transfer wealth from the pyramid to the vault of Port Barry
BTW, Adamantite is depleted uranium (no, you don't get radded by using it)

You do realize that you don't have to take it, its called a Treasury cuz thats where you keep resources so they don't wander off until the next time you need them,....

I mean, you're welcome to do so,... but bars of metal aren't light, and don't carry well. I'm saying you could be in the Mages area and be like "I wanna make a bla-blah" and I'll be like "Sure, you grab it from the treasury and get to crafting"

There are two goals that guide our actions - to kill the Terrasque, and to convert this planet's inhabitants to the one true Football. Though at first these may seem to be disparate and separate goals, the latter actually feeds into the former, as clerical knowledge gained, and the power of devoted followers, can be weaponized for use against the Terrasqu, and Elway is more likely to let us prevail if we first spread His word. But besides the religious aspect, we also need to create seige weapons, or draft an army, for use against our many opponents. To these seperate ends, we must build a stadium - to worship and train the common folk in Football; establish a monastic order - to be missionaries travelling the planet, to teach peasants in the arts (including the art of turning adamantium into ammunition), and perhaps even to fight in our battles; improve the resources of the current forge - so that it may be able to create the Trebuchets (can we make cannons?) that can slay larger foes; and create a headquarters for the peasantry to organize much of this on their own. Remember that Port Barry is, above all, a port. It can import laborers, skilled and unskilled, any materials necessary, and export missionaries

Oh and yes, the forge is sufficient to develop seige engines, trebuchets, ballistae, etc.

Trumpaladin's first stage is to use his perception to judge the most pure and worthy of the unconverted peasants. These, he converts with his showing of Superbowl XXXII and Elway's Helicopter tackle. these shall become his first monks and establish the monastic order of Mile High. This monstatic order will have several functions. Most will begin the missionary process of converting the entire population of Port Barry to Football. Some will assume the role of educators at the Port Barry Parochial School, which may need to be constructed. They shall train the citizenry in every essential art. And some will board the next ship out to far off lands to spread the word of Football

>Ballistae
This would be an insanely useful tool. Essentially a giant crossbow, having three or so of these with teams, and with Adamantium tipped bolts, would be able to fell - or at least damage - larger and stronger opponents

Also, cannons have better range than ballistae tho less then trebuchet, do comparable damage to a trebuchet, but also have significant damage reduction-negation (with the potential of using explosive rounds ^_~)
>>5636
Okay, what you're describing, I have only 2 comments.
1st, it will take time, I mean you're not going to immediately convert a bunch of people in a few minutes, it might take a day or so, then time to train, etc. As for the feasibility and quality of the idea, i have only one thing to say, which is my second point:
Football.

No matter, he has time. Assuming the treasury is secured - and that is the most important step, because he really will need that 120,000 shekels as the down payment for this program - Trump starts a public function - a rally, if you will - where he gives a speech about everything his group has accomplished thus far, and how they will bring jobs, jobs, jobs to the lower class citizens of Port Barry when the manufacturing of weapons begins. But while speaking about how he will make Port Barry Safe gain, Work Again, and Great Again, he mentions Football.
The purpose of this rally is two fold - to instill trust for the group in the citizens of Port Barry, but more importantly, to look for those six or so people who will approach him to talk about football. They, he will convert. And they in turn shall become monks, who will hep find other monks

Is a panzerkampfwagen a seige engine?
Also question for the GM, can my staff of trans-mutilation revert thing to a past point
like cooked meat to raw meat, rust into iron, or unbake a cake?

Dude, with that idea you're going to get more than six people. I'm just sayin'.

No, a trebuchet is clearly the staple option for war machines. Having said, a well-rounded operation would include all 3 mentioned as well as others.
>>5643
Yes, but no. The thing is, 'transmutation' is just a name. Its ability to transmute outside objects (polymorph) has been expended. I should/will call it something less grandiose in the future, as the name is a little misleading.

Also a note about panzerkampfwagen;
Given the technological sophistication of the time, the best you're going to be able to craft for now is a Da Vinci-style tank, though further development is limited only by ingenuity, crafting skill (Thez knows a guy) and the subsequent die rolls.

Okay, so of those who are receptive, you're looking to form an ace-team. Very Trump of you, I get it. Also the library isn't a bad idea. While that is the purpose of the library in the tower, there is no harm in having more resources.
Incidentally, at this point only Lenos has actually read the manual, so the party is still kinda at his 'mercy'.

Also, I rate the stadium as only costing about 50,000 bits (equal to a standard castle), so you have more resources than you might expect, and that's without converting the gems into coin.

Don't feel bad, you were trying to reason with an elitist insect who's entire position was based on inheritance and groundless authoritarianism. You'll have much better success with other factions, I assure you.

Oh, you could have easily killed the others with Football, but note that aside from trying to prevent you from entering the Queen's chamber, none of them rushed in to assist.

Can I befriend these ants through common interest? With the Queen gone, they're under threat of losing all of their edge and developing thorax vaginas: I will teach them sustainable ways to substitute their lost edge.
Also, can I increase stats or develop new feats in the traning room? I want to practice throwing MY new kunai knives.

Yes and yes. You haven't met him yet, but you will find the newly presiding Myrmarch to be far more reasonable and diplomatic (not in a pussy sense, but in a 'interested in the hive developing beyond a queen (though there's that nasty issue of breeding) sense') and interested in cultivating relations with the surrounding cultures and factions.
Also, that's precisely what the training area is for.

There are a number of books on the subject, and you can certainly research to increase your skill. Plz note though, you're starting from scratch (skill level 1, developing upward). You have the option of developing your own skill or appealing to more skilled crafts-ponies.

As basic crafts, yes. Crafting magic items is more intensive, requiring not least a proficiency with magic. ^_~

You can and will, but in the paraphrased words:
"For now, I think its best that we leave the Ant Hive to the Ants."

idk if an Earth pony suddenly showing interest in crafting magic items is in character atm... Maybe I'll find a way to get Lenos to make me one later.
What does the Myrmarch think of my Truncated icosahedrons?

As for crafting, it certainly won't be as easy as it would be for a unicorn, but that doesn't mean it can't be done. Still, if you're looking for immediate results, Lenos is a good option.
"Also I know a guy!" Thez is up BTW.

Music dude here for a quick check in,
Do we want music music, or ambient noise?

>won't be as easy as it would be for a unicorn
D-do Earth ponies have any unique quirks? Can I perform wildform feats, or something of the like?

I'm not picky. My mix is more adventure-themed, but whatever works.
>>5672
Earth ponies would naturally have a greater capacity for Strength and Constitution, but there is no prohibition on development (that I can think of).
Likewise Unicorns would be Intelligence and Wisdom, while Pegusai would be Dexterity and Charisma.

So.. how do I acquire new skills and martial disciplines?

Well here's the thing. Aside from my earlier indication of "largely/moderately skilled", your skills are as yet undefined. As a 12th (maybe 13th, I haven't crunched the numbers yet from last night) level rogue, you have LOTS (rogues get the most skill points FYI). Additionally, there is the topic of feats which amount to 'special moves/techniques', which you also have several of. Depending on your (and not just your) preference I can summarize/detail the specifics, or if you have the time and are bored I can direct you to my personal favorite resource on the matter:

Alright... (I've never RP before, and can't really make heads or tails of this). I prefer to keep things mostly ambiguous at this point though, because I'm really learning as I go...
As for racial abilities and limitations, I'm not sure about Tracy... There is no real established "pony" race, among role-playing games; and a lot of w00t's Tracy pics on DB are labelled "semi-anthro" because of her flexibility of movement.. Overall, she's a meme-OC with an inconsistent design. I welcomed the chance to turn into a mount, partly because I could just play as the 'Awakened Horse' species, which was why I didn't triple-wield at any time during that play. The problems also come up with character evolution. Horse aren't exactly given very much specificity, when it comes to getting stronger over time, although but beyond level 6 they're geared to evolve into unicorns or pegasi, BUT I DON'T WANT THAT because it's horseshit. Long term, I was hoping to write-up a unique class for character development based on ghost rider and the book of revelations, having her being corrupted through wicked feats, insanity, and demonic possession (like she does in the books) for the sake of unlocking monstrous evolution pathlines, but I'm still totally new to this stuff....
Also, you said that ponimaru's body would be reconstructed, but his mental state wouldn't automatically recover: any chance I could take advantage of his PTSD and threaten him into making me a ninja scroll

"Uhhh, that's Lenos',..." she says, in spite of the fact that its many times larger than he is.
>>5677
I'm basically viewing Tracy as a standard player with slight modifications. For attributes I'm leaning toward either dwarf or half-orc. Unique/custom race/class is exactly where I was going. As for ponimaru,... well that's complicated. He's got some shit to say the next time the opportunity presents its self.
>>5682
Yes. Until it is deliberately 'grounded', the building will maintain an elevation of about 60-70' off the ground (variable as desired by the 'driver').

For persective, the sword is about 11' tall.

Yep. He's there, a bit dingy with a pair of ruby goggles on, a pair of clamps in one hand, a hammer in the other, and a piece of metal sticking out of one of the smaller forges (there's actually several, we just call it 'the forge').

Alright, enough stalling, time to bake
Also, no pressure Confed-anon, but Thez wants to know when/if she'll have the chance to help Trudeau "win" in the CYOA thread
