If you would, please.
Very well. I'm not a fan of controlling PCs because it's difficult to keep GM/PC knowledge apart... So I'll just control Eitylen in combat. In other situations, either you control him or he just follows you silently and makes no suggestions.
BTW, guys, do keep track of your rounds of Rage/Bardic Performance/whatever. They have their own bar in Roll20 (under the HP bar).
You should keep them updated in your character profile as well.
So, if the houserules regarding proficient armor state that you dont suffer ACP or speed reduction, that basically makes armor training obsolete, correct? Other than the increase to Dex bonus that is. Which is a moot point for a barb-based character. If so, may I swap it out for something more out-of-combat useful?
Armor Training is relevant for some of his homebrewed Fighter Feats, as I recall.
Ah, ok. I'll reread the whole houserule guide this time. I may have missed other things as well. And thanks for the ACP info, I must have overlooked it because it was hiding near the bit about ASF
Figured I'd post since I just thought of it again (I explained this to Scavion a few days ago, and figured other people might have the same question).
In case anyone has been wondering about Frederick's seeming attitude shifts, Frederick basically has two "personalities".
There is normal Frederick, the kind-hearted, somewhat too naive and trusting "stranger in a strange land".
Then there is Frederick when he's Centered, who is much more clinical and focused on the most efficient path to whatever goal he's focused on. Centered Frederick is not kind-hearted. Though neither is he cruel, just expedient.
In alignment terms, I'd peg "normal" Frederick as Neutral Good, and "Centered" Frederick as True Neutral or Lawful Neutral.
Sorry, guys... My internet is off. It should be back in a couple days...
:/
I wanna go but weekdays I get out at 7pm...which is another two hours for me. Cant see the battlemap on my phone.
BEHOLD!?!!
Huh... I thought you lived in the east coast...
Texas actually.
Ah, now that you say it... I do recall you mentioning it before!
Texas actually.
I'm so sorry.
*Septid chuckles audibly*
Hey... Texas is the America of America!
BTW, guys... If you have a situational bonus, you can just add a note about it next to your roll.
e.g.:
If the bonus is situational enough that I might have forgotten where it comes from, you can add the name of the ability as well...
BTW, I updated the Campaign's Rules & Guidelines doc with the changes we discussed a while ago (such as removing the auto-confirm from nat 20) and added a little more information to the List of Notable NPCs and Locations.
I assume most if not all of you will agree with me when I say that I don't think it's necessarily an evil act to eat the corpses of other intelligent Humanoids. Especially in the case of tribal or primitive cultures who may do it out of ritual for honor or those that do so out of necessity. Or those that practice some kind weird "communal-life-cycle"(or whatever)beliefs. And with the stated lack/minimization of alignment I figure it was an acceptable character moment.
Sorry, Jaazkara is now the epitome of Evil and will be constantly harassed by Paladins who Smite first and ask later. XD

Seriously, though... I don't think cannibalism per se is Evil... It just depends on the circumstances of it. Eating a heart as a tribute to fallen enemies may be okay, killing someone just so you can eat their heart is not. And so on... I even made an argument similar to yours a couple weeks ago in one thread or another...
But again, I really don't give a flying f#&+ about alignment and would rather completely remove it from the game. ><'
Well good. I've had the conversation before as well. But the other GM was not nearly as understanding.

Who knows if I'm understanding? Maybe I just happen to agree with you... BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!!!
So... Like Napalm in the morning?
Exactly.
BTW... "GM Lemmy" is now my alias with most posts! Currently beating Korak by 7 posts! :)
Korak sucked and nobody liked him, boo Korak
On a more serious note, even if Nicos WASN'T gone (leaving Korak as LITERALLY THE ONLY CHARACTER), I still have no clue where to take Myrial from where we left it.
I'm the best! No one beats me!!! KORAK IS THE STRONGEST ONE THERE IS!!!
(Also... Didn't we have a 3rd player?)
Gark dropped, and IIRC Scavion stopped playing in that one too, right?
IIRC, both Scavion and Nicos were still playing when the campaign entered indefinite hiatus.
Yessir, Talryn Ironflesh was pretty damn active up to and after his death.
"What's with you and anthropophage lizards? :P"
I blame a childhood spent often hungry, playing Nethack and other Rogue-Like games, and a profound RL respect for the sacred Hunter-Prey bond that is all but eliminated from modern society. When I hunt in RL, I eat the raw hearts to commune with my prey and thank it for its sacrifice.
And at the risk of sounding completely bat-s~!% crazy, I also form the bones and teeth into tools or little knick-knacks, the furs into leather or fabric, and the offal into lures and bait. I still have a small blanket made from a deer pelt. I give other nature enthusiasts most of the stuff I craft.
I can attest to that. That snakeskin woulda been a cool headband!
That's... different. But we all have our habits and hobbies.
I wouldn't consider you crazy for that... Even if I did, I honestly don't care what bat-s@+* crazy insanity anyone likes, as long as it doesn't harm anyone else or their rights.
I applaud and share that worldview. And thanks Scavion. I mostly do it to be a little closer to our primal roots without actual primal violence, and I feel if you slay something for food you should utilize all of it that you are able.
I'm not sure what's supposed to be considered so weird about eating organ meat anyway. It's a delicacy most places.
I have a friend and who adds ketchup to pizza... It's hard to consider anything crazy after seeing that. :P

Technically, every meat is organ meat. ;)
BTW, Scavion... Add Brother Cyrus' "passive skill checks" bonuses somewhere easy to find in his character profile, like Jaazkara and Frederick did.
That reminds me... Sundakan, I think there is an specific field for your character's languages. No need to add them in the big "About..." field. ^^
Frikken phone ate a huge story telling post. Auuuugh!
I too have felt that pain.
Ah, you forgot the 2nd rule of posting...
1- Always copy before clicking "Post"
2- Don't make long posts from your phone.
But I have SO much free time at work...despite my boss telling me to get off my phone and work!
Key word is "long". You can still make short posts... Or figure a way to copy your text on your phone, so you don't lose it all by accident.
Well I finally got around to adding those passive skills to my character Hehe.
Slow day for PbP...
It's quiet...TOO quiet.
Weekends are kinda slow. People usually have other plans... Mos people, that is. I spent my weekend playing Street Fighter V and following the news about the protests in Brazil.
Ah, Street Fighter. Is V one of the 3-d ones?
Ah, Street Fighter. Is V one of the 3-d ones?
It's the latest one, so... Yeah. 3D in graphicsonly, though, it retains the 2D gameplay, just like SF4.
I always loved this series, but SFV is definetely my favorite so far (but I'll have a special place in my heart for SFII).
Hah! The best archetype in Ultimate Intrigue for Rogues gives up almost all of the Rogue Talents till like 12th level for a luck bonus to saves, getting the Steal feats and a bonus to bluff and sleight of hand. Shame about losing trapfinding since most folks will pass it over because MUH TRAPS
Is it worth buying? The Vigilante was a good idea in the Playtest but man did it need some polish.
