Mummy's Mask

Game Master Samy

It will be when I do it.... Awesome display makes the spell stay relevant for many levels. Really, considering Harmose's orientation, waving a rainbow around seems rather appropriate, don't you think?

Yes and I like it. One of my favorite low level spells. Are you planning favor one class over the other? Or go Mystic Theurge?

Also I loved the answer you gave! Had me giggling ;)

You may want to list that just after Perception in your profile header. That way Samy will see it when looking for your perception to determine if a trap is detected.

Done.

Been a crazy couple of days, don't expect a post from me tonight, but tomorrow I should be able to get back on the horse.

Giddy-up!

Take care, Samy. We'll all see you when you're ready to rodeo again.

Thanks for the update Samy and hang in there!

Post is away.

Off-topic, are there Hell's Vengeance interested people here?

I have alawys been interested in an evil campaign. The group I play with at a table has mixed views and I would have to run not play.

I've never really played an evil character (got into a Way of the Wicked game once but that was pretty short-lived) but I think it could be fun if handled with some care.

Sorry, no Evil for me.

I would be interested in such a campaign.

Hmmmmm.... An Evil campaign... I wonder....

I have failed twice to get into a way of the wicked game. It is so popular I get lost in the masses. With the right group and maturity level it could be fun. Evil doesn't mean that you eat babies and kill everyone. Just that you have a different motivations. Like an LE Cavalier who defends his town because he still has relationships there. Or that said Cavalier believes this town is his and nobody touches his things.

Derp, I actually am playing in an evil Rappan Athuk game but thus far it's mostly been dungeon crawling so the evilness of the party hasn't really come into play much. Yet, hehe.

*edit* Deseri, that's what I like about the premise for Way of the Wicked - there's a plot and a reason for evil PCs to cooperate and not go murderhobo for S&Gs. I think a lot of people have poor experiences with evil PCs being played in an immature or downright psychotic way, but you're right - even evil folks are likely to have people and things that they care about. But I also understand that lots of folks just want to be the hero and not the bad guy; I'm that way too the majority of the time. Every so often it's fun to RP the exact opposite of myself, though.

Agreed, so far the RA game has been almost neutral. Almost... :D

You are spot on Deseri - one of my most memorable characters with my veteran RP group was Mordred, a LE wizard, who accidentally incinerated the Paladin - but the group almost actually agreed that the fireball was a good option there and then.

I like to think of him as... Pragmatic to the extreme ;)

My roommate found and shared this with me. Sadly five separate pages but totally worth it. page one, page two, page three, page four, and page five. This entertained me so I am sharing

ROFL!! That is amazing :D

Glad you liked it :)

I'd love to play in the Vengeance campaign, but as busy as work has been recently, I'll pass. I'm barely able to keep up with this one as is, lol.

My roommate found and shared this with me. Sadly five separate pages but totally worth it. page one, page two, page three, page four, and page five. This entertained me so I am sharing.

I finally read these. OMG! I loved them! Though my characters would generally seduce the big bad on purpose. Just saying.

No evil campaigns for me, Samy!

It would take a combination of my dice luck with your story-telling to get something like that.

Haha Harmose be a good boy and play with your snake so it doesn't get in the way ;)

The map should now be changed so that everyone has permission to edit their own positions. I made a "best guess" positioning for everyone, but feel free to alter your positions until I post that combat begins.

So if I understand correctly, Harmose is going to try to shoo the asp with Mage Hand, Aleris is going to ready action to fire at the asp if it turns hostile, and everyone else waits for anything to close to melee range. Do I have that right?

Looking good from my part :D

I'm not shooing. I'm enticing. There's a world of difference there. :)

I think that's the gist of it Samy :)

Right. Enticing. That's what men always interpret it as. ;)

Harmose, remind me is that a normal color spray spell you are using or something special?

You guys need a druid. ;)

Ready a shot would be my ideal for Deseri

It's color spray with awesome display from Heavens Oracle. Awesome display subtracts my charisma modifier from their hit dice for determining effects. Honestly, I want to just see if this works...

Huh, that's actually a surprisingly useful ability. Keeps Color Spray useful way into high levels. Okay, looking into the results of it now.

You guys need a druid. ;)

We've already got 8 PCs, 2 familiars, and a horse. All we're missing is the partridge in a pear tree an animal companion and an eidolon to have the full set. That's not even counting followers, henchman, and the Leadership feat... ;)

The AP's still young.

Leadership is an option? We could totally get a Druid!

Also Harmose I want to be there for you trying to convince Aleris that seducing the baddy is necessary.

Ah, but Harmose has no longer dumped wisdom! He knows he has the best thing there is and he's not letting it go.

Though... Oh, I'd love to see him try to seduce a baddie. "Aleris, it's for the greater good! Aleris? Honey?"

*snerk*

I don't know about this game but somewhere out there an imaginary fan is writing a story about Harmose bringing peace and love to the land of Wati courtesy of his magical snake.

It's a little frightening that Ra-Khefer just tossed that magical snake over the fence, now isn't it?

BTW, Deseri, you little imp, you ask the toughest questions!

You are most welcome. Good answer.

Samy,

Depending on how quickly things go, you may have to bot Harmose. HMM is busy tonight and most likely will not have time for check the boards.

Oh the pain, I'm sure you will all die against one solifugid with only seven of you. ;)

But yes, thank you for letting me know so I won't wait on Hmm.

My son is having a birthday party, but the boys are entertaining themselves building rails on the moon and dumping out tourists in the middle of the lunar desert. So... I joined in on the mighty battle against the spider thingy*.

Go, acid splash!

*The closest Harmose can get to a technical identification without any ranks in Knowledge Nature!

I'm gonna rule that you get no AoO vs a surprise attack. If I'm wrong, point it out and I'll use it next occasion.

I believe you are right.

Unaware Combatants: Combatants who are unaware at the start of battle don’t get to act in the surprise round. Unaware combatants are flat-footed because they have not acted yet, so they lose any Dexterity bonus to AC.

Combat reflexes allows you to take an Attack of Opportunity when Flat Footed, but the person is still unaware and can not act yet.

Once regular combat begins then I think the Combat Reflexes would kick in.

I'm also not certain in this instance if the creature was far enough away to allow Polux to get an attack in. He has stated he is using a Longspear which gives him Reach. Unfortunately, it doesn't allow him to attack adjacent opponents.

You are right Bret, I was assuming it would be above on the ceiling, and not immediately above the door. If it was, then Combat Reflexes would not kick in anyway :P

Happy Valentines day, my lovelies!

Happy Valentine boys and girls :D

Happy Vamlumtines Day guys! :D

Really... That is genial in so many levels :D

Happy Valentine's Day to our whole posse!

And the lest favorite of my holidays has passed. Hope everyone had a lovely day. I did. My Druid in S&S almost died and I feel the DM is really enjoying the backstory of my cohort. So I am owned that way.
