>>51186
What check would I need to roll for Torc to understand the wand machine?

>>51185
"Thanks, big guy."
*tempers heads in acid*
*pulls out two badass metal skullz, cast from the skull of a jibbernigger*
*inserts gems into eye-sockets*
"This'll show those spooky bois what pain feels like.
It's frustrating sometimes, because they don't bleed or writhe, but they're worth the effort to dispose of."

>>51188
Push all of the buttons and see what happens.

>>51190
Unironicly this.

>>51187
"A faaaaavor? You already have my favor,...." she giggles playfully.
>>51188
You could try examining it

>>51186
You hear about Necromancer liches all of the time, but Cleric liches are underrated. Their ability to bolster and command undead gives them great potential as villians commanding undead armies. Being able to unhallow their territory also makes them a pain to destroy.

>>51192
"Me glad me do ,but can you help me inspire some more towns people to fight?"
Is the a ghetto in town gm?

>>51194
>ghetto in town
I've been meaning to look into this too.
Are there any slums in Port Barry that Tracy could hang out around?

>>51191
>>51190
ANY OTHER ADVICE?
>>51192
>rolling

[1d20+3 = 19]
>>51196
>sigh
Fucked that up

>>51197
Tell Tracy when you're done.
I wanna make a wand of True Strike.

>>51198
That sould be useful.

>>51197
You could have just looked at it, I'd have told you without the dice roll,....
The machine is a rectangular cube, with a door on the left, the top, and the side. The left door has several trays and shelves, and has "Input" written over them. The top door is a retention area, where it appears a wand would be situated when performing the charging spells, with non-conductive material to retain the piece. The right door folds forward, and shows a computer display, with various indicators and menus. Luckily, its pretty straight forward. The prompt has three options: Craft Wand, Charge Wand, and Destroy Wand.
>>51194
"Hmmmm. The brothel used to be the seedy area, but I don't know what else. I haven't really looked up and down the docks tho, I imagine there might be some seedy areas adjacent or nearby."

>>51200
Oh, you would of?
Torc trys pressing "Craft wand"

>>51200
"Are there any negros?"pls say yes.

>>51202
"What's a knee-grow?"
>>51201
A menu appears, prompting Torcuil to select the desired wand. (you can just say he selects one of them, I still have the convo)

>>51193
And yes, this. A clerical lich had never occurred to me, but it makes perfect sense.

>>51203
The first one I said

>>51203
"It look like human with black/brown skin and it commit alot of crime."

>>51195
>>51194
"It's not good enough for Tracy to be created by a Nigger. No, she wants to be the Nigger"

>>51206
>>51202
"Ask your Ghestapo. Aren't they supposed to be a criminal law enforcement?"

>>51208
"Thez been here longer than my Gestapo been alive."

>>51209
"Didn't you hear her several months ago? She hasn't taken that much interest in the town, besides occasionally visiting a few areas"

>>51206
"You mean like a drow?"
>>51209
"Yeah, that's not true at all. See, when I was last here was something like 300 years ago (by this world's accounting of time). I've only spent maybe a year combined in this world. Since dying from my world of origin, most of my time has been spent in the outer planes."

>>51210
"Uh me forgot."

"Thez go gather a crowd for me please, me need to ask gestapo about negros"

>>51211
>>51212
"Sort of like a drow but not a elf."

>>51211
"The Drow? Where are they? Fuck those guys. Tell me where they are so I can go kill them"

>>51213
"This is a fantasy game. All humans are Europeans, and most of those are Northern Europe"

>>51205
The menu disappears, and the prompt changes to:
inb4 jokes
Please insert 3'-4' hardwood, 7 crystals, 3gp
>>51212
"Gather a crowd? Oh-KAY!!!" <whooof>

>>51214
"Yea but me need fromtline soldiers that can take damage for my men and negros would be perfect for that."

>>51212
"Do you not know where your own followers are?"

>>51217
"Buffalo Soldiers? Front-lines builds character! I like it. They aren't your followers so don't expect any loyalty out of them though"

>>51214
Not true at all. I have entire areas that have darkies, and not just,... well,... darkie and co.
"Hey."
Offense intended.
"Prick."

>>51219
"Me will discipline them and then reward them for good behavior with watermelon kool aid and fried chicken."

>>51220
Jej
"Jej"

>>51220
Why you make progressive game world?

To Darkie
"Uh... I mean the other drow"

>>51221
"That might work. It will keep them employed"

>>51215
Okay then. Torc heads toward the towers vault to get the crystals and gold.
If only Norfilly could bring sticks in for Torc to use

>>51224
"Me miss filly"
>>51223
"Negros are easy to train."

>>51223
"Want to come with me maybe you can get some to supplement your ranks."

>>51225
"They are your fellow humans. Don't be too harsh on them"

>>51204
I brought it up because I was just yesterday looking at a thread on /tg/ made by some faggot complaining about liches being too cliche.
Liches do come in all flavors. A Clerical, Death-Domain lich is easily a BBEG tier villain who truly wrships Death; buffing thousands of undead minions at once, and summoning powerful extra-planar spooks like Nightwalkers and Lavawights with Planar Ally spells.
I saw an idea about an eco-terrorist Druid lich, with a bunch of dinosaur skeletons, and Ranger liches who were effectively Ring-Wraiths with only humanoids as their preferred enemies. Even Paladin (or former paladins) make for great liches, while Bards-liches are the epitome of Death Metal.
I like templates.

>>51228
>Paladin lich
A Blackguard lich? Wat

>>51227
>your fellow humans
Infernius is a bull though, and a Heck at that.

>>51228
Trump has his way of seeing things, and that's how he presents it

>>51227
"Barely"

>>51204
A cleric is a wisdom based spell caster, whereas a lich is charisma based... so only a Sorcerer (or bard I guess, maybe a charisma minded paladin/black guard) is going to be truly built for being a lich when they come into it. It sure beats dying I guess

>>51232
"They are your citizens too. They probably look up to you"

>>51229
It could be a Paladin of Tyranny or a Paladin of Slaughter too. Or a Fallen Paladin, like the Lich King Arthas.

>>51234
"Want to see if you can recruit some?"

>>51223
Seriously? You're gonna give me heat because I included negros in the list of potential obstacles, adversaries, and potential resources?
>>51225
>>51224
Filly is still around if not ITT, as I'm sure has been noticed.
>>51228
>pic 2
FUKKIN' KEK
Yes. Its cuz the idea of a lich (crazy magic, intricate rituals and symbols n shit) naturally is associable with wizards. However, while contemplating facets of the Game backstory/ground, I had considered alternate liches, specifically Druid and Monk.
>>51233
You forget that not all characters are trying to break the game

>>51233
Yeah, but Clerics can also Command and Bolster Undead without even casting spells.

>>51235
I guess, but given the way that Paladins fight, being a lich isn't going to give very many benefits besides not being completely dead

Which I guess is the primary benefit of being a Lich

>>51235
Arthas op,pls nerf.

>>51240
Arthas was a bitch. He's nothing without the sword

>>51241
For you.

She felt the candy calling her name; whispers carried by the wind. Bring offering of sticks it said. Bring us what you can carry and we will be yours, the candy said. This was her time she knew. This was the day she would rise up bring sticks and earn candy. So she gathered up what she could find while sprinting towards the sweet promise of candy.

>>51237
I guess they can be kings as well

>>51237
> not all characters are trying to break the game
I'm used to those who are...

>>51237
>I had considered alternate liches, specifically Druid and Monk
I still feel like a Wizard is the best architype to use. it just feels right

>>51243
GIVES PEACH RINGS

Where is the vault/collection of gold and gems?
>>51243
Kek

>>51243
"Want some gummy worms little filly?"

>>51243
Torc will summon candy for sticks

>>51244
>wizard best
Of course, but wizards aren't the only overly-ambitious and/or fearful of death. There's no rule that says "You must be MAXXED to be a lich. Nope, its just a (particularly distinct and expensive) wonderous item,... a bunch of spells and rituals, and viola, everyone is running from you.
>>51243
Did it just get more adorable in here, or is it just me?
>>51245
Didn't you just ask and answer your own question?

>>51239
Liches are mainly a template made to make better villains. A paladin of Slaughter would have good synergy though.
>Which I guess is the primary benefit of being a Lich
Mainly that.
Liches often have big mouths about not fearing death and everything, but they're usually just big worryworts who were too cowardly to face death/age. Then they go out of their way to hide their phylacteries in personal demoplanes and whatnot just because they're so horrified about the prospect that someone will find them.
>>51241
Yeah, he was quite the pussy really...
It kind of made him a better villain in an ironic way, but not really, since that theme is already kind of overdone.

>>51243
The Peach Rings becon, calling her to the radiant tall man with the captivating hair style

>>51243
"O-oh! Haven't seen you in a while..."
*offers candy-apple*

>>51248
>Didn't you just ask and answer your own question?
Uh, idk. I just asked where it is

>>51252
The gems are in the vault.

>>51248
*Walks to the gestapo office.*

>>51244
>GIVES PEACH RINGS
Success!

>>51246
>Want some gummy worms little filly?
>Do I want gummy worms?
She could feel her heart beat faster, she didn't need to think or do anything. Her body did it all by it self. She was now only a gleeful spectator hearing herself say
"YES"

>>51251
Takes candy-apple gracefully.
>The candy hadn't lied to her. Candy had never lied to her. She had brought sticks and it had offered itself to her.

>>51253
But where is it?

>>51256
Idk where anything is in the tower, desu..

>>51255
*takes out bag of gummy worms*
*opens*
*gives handful to norfilly*

>>51255
"Don't eat the candy apple from the blue one! She probably poisoned it. Or put razor blades in it"

>>51257
The tower is over port barry.

>>51259
"Oh, please!"

>>51252
You said where is the vault (as in the vault in the Tower)/collection of gems. o_O
>>51253
This
>>51256
Its somewhere between the main level and the strip-mall area. I don't know, I keep adding shit. Just go to the vault, you've been there before.
>>51255
<whoooof> Thez appears breathless, exhuberant, and sweating a bit.
"Sorry, I'm not supposed to break character, but I couldn't resist!" she says offering Filly a big chocolate bar. "I hope you like it,..." <whooof>

>>51261
"I know you"

>>51263
"If I felt like killing someone, a dagger would be more convenient."

>>51259
"Me think you get off on being mean to tracy."

>>51262
>I'm not supposed to break character
Is this not how she usually behaves?

>>51255
"Don't turn your back to Tracy"

>>51265
"Give her time. She shall prove me right"

>>51262
"You don't offer candy to unsuspecting children?"

>>51266
Hey, this is the first time she's ever cut out in the middle of an impromptu show, let alone just to say "Hi, here's some candy".
>>51267
Filly is pure, quit trying to taint her with distrust and character assassinations Xp

>>51258
This is truly a day for joy.
>eats some gummy worms

>>51259
No one would do that to filly.

>>51262
Takes chocolate and hugs it.

>>51267
Tracy isn't cheap enough to use poisoned apples when she could stab something and make it look like a bear attack.
>>51269
>No one would do that to filly
This.
*pulls out a second candy-apple and eats it herself*

>>51268
>quit trying to taint her with distrust and character assassinations
This

>>51271
Is this related to Thez's performance?

Trumpaladin places himself between the small filly and the blue one, keeping an eye on the latter

>>51257
Thanks for the help
>>51262
Fair enough.
Torc decides to pop his head in and ask if anyone needs something from the vault, then sees filly.
"NORFILLY"
>hugging ensues
I just remembered, no one can use a wand without use magic device, can they?

>>51269
*hugs filly*
"Me going to dangerous place, no follow me okay?"

>>51270
"It's not 'I would never stab our cute stick-finding candy loving filly. Nope! It's 'I would rather maul her to death than poison her'"

>>51275
>no one can use a wand without use magic device
You can if you can already cast the spell.
Tell Tracy about the machine, so she can make a wand of True Strike.
>>51277
Yeah, so you can be completely sure that she wouldn't do something pleb-tier like a poisoned apple.

>>51277
"Reeeeeeeeeeeee no hurt filly."

>>51273
>>51274
>>51276
>>51275
Hugs all.

Sadly I have to retread back to bed and reading about Daring Do and to eat some of the, what some would say, hard earned candy. And so she fell asleep with candy in her mouth so she would have sweet dreams.

>>51273
No, that's cuz Filly is here and it makes me smile. Thez is currently doing a cover of "Your Type".
>>51280
Thanks for stopping in. Come back anytime. Also, plz give Torcuil a stick.

>>51280
*tries to make sure filly isn't stabbed*

>>51281
>Comes here and takes candy
>Doesn't deliver sticks
Kek

>>51281
Sticks for everyone. Candy demanded it.

>>51280
*pets the sleeping filly*

>>51284
You heard it here, everyone gets a stick.

*s
