[5e] GM Infinity's SKT [Chapter 5 Completed!] (Inactive)

Game Master mishima

Cool, its nice flavor, was just wondering where it came from.

Aye, it's nice when characters have different curses than the real world.

For the record, I didn't think it would be a giant sleeping. Thought it would be a servant... orc... or whatever.

Sorry.

No worries! Makes it fun! :)

Indeed, no missteps that I can see. Had to get in somehow. Granted, you would've gotten some major style points for creating your own "Summon Beaver Horde" spell to dismantle the base, but hindsight is 20/20.

If I ever get wish, I will use it only to ever cast my new spell "Summon beaver swarm".

What is the author's name of Sohar's book? Or can I make that up?

I’m on a business trip today without a lot of time. Feel free to do Urth’s last trick portent on phastAsmal force to shut down one of the giants.

Cheers

Sohar, you can make it up. If I was doing it I'd just use a random name generator.

Niemira's Illustrated Handbook of Living Creatures, Volume I, it is.

Urth, I was going to use your Firebolt cantrip you had statted out on your sheet, but then noticed it wasnt in your cantrips list?

Oooh damn, didn't notice Hunter's Mark was concentration. Thanks.

Lots of 5e magic subtleties not memorized.

Sorry. Changed to chill touch and Poison spray. Will update b

Thanks for the pig illusion

Oooh damn, didn't notice Hunter's Mark was concentration. Thanks.

Lots of 5e magic subtleties not memorized.

I keep forgetting, too.

Home now. Flight delayed due to mechanical excuses.

Updated my profile for Chill Touch and Poison Spray.

Hi GM

Can you put the orc on the map. I need a range to target to decide options.

thanks

You bet, coming right up. ;)

Site was down almost all day for me, then didn't have enough time to redo map at school. So, sorry for the abnormally large delay.

I also found some higher res map images that should be nicer for those on PCs. Redid slides 1, 2, and 3.

Also, this isn't urgent, but can each of you give me a "wishlist" of magic items (any rarity)? Like a top 3?

Not in any order:

[Weapon] of giant slaying
Boots of Striding and Springing
Any other permanent magic item*

*No, seriously. I love the idea of a magic item changing how a character thinks and acts. Sometimes, some of the best characters are grown out of this.

I've got a barbarian who's only magic item is a Ring of Jumping. I'd have never picked it on my own, but I love how it's turned out.

Staff of Power
Robe of Stars
Wand of Magic missiles (yes I know, robe of stars gives me magic missiles at 5th level at the cost of a star which regenerates, as well as other things it does and so does this, as does Staff of Power, he will be stacked on magic missiles)

Honestly I don't know 5e items that well. I kinda like the idea of the random items just working out.

I would have to really look into what I want, but my favorite items are the ones I cant imagine from the start.

A bigger and more powerful maul....and maybe some armor or protective device, but like Dymmathy, anything would be cool. I like that with 5e it is not all about magic and stacking bonuses.
Oh, maybe something to increase his strength would work as well...lol

Can anyone get that runner before he hits the gong?

I've only two options:
1. Move 30 and Fireball. The orc is at the far edge of the radius. However, the sheep pens will be blackened again.
2. Move 30, Misty Step another 30, and Chill Touch. Possibly won't drop him.

I don't like my two options from a resource allocation point of view. Would much prefer someone with a ready longbow to get him.

Will post tonight after work.

cheers

Escaping Sheep: was that 1d6 minutes (plus animal handling roll) for the one pen that was on fire, or all five pens?

No that was altogether assuming others helped. Your AH roll of 24 made it a success with d6 minutes instead of another die with more sides or a fail. *shrug*

Thanks! Needed to know if Jysson was going to go after another pen or hide and attack the giant. :)

Also, this isn't urgent, but can each of you give me a "wishlist" of magic items (any rarity)? Like a top 3?

Urth's magic wish list:

STAFF OF THUNDER AND LIGHTNING

HELM OF TELEPORTATION

ANIMATED SHIELD

STAFF OF THUNDER AND LIGHTNING

HELM OF TELEPORTATION

ANIMATED SHIELD

How is a snake going to hold a staff?? lol

Caduceus ftw. ;)

Wow. The board has been so fragile lately.

They've been trying to fix the code that caused the logout issues. It likely caused even more issues as they tried to change it.

If you guys happen to see the site up for a bit and try to post, make sure you copy all your text before hitting preview or submit.

I read through some of the Developers posts. They are really trying to make some big changes to some very complicated old code. I have been there.. no fun.

I never had a horde of people expecting it to work, if I break something!

Yeah. It's gotta be hard. Make sure you give them encouragement and support. I've been doing that - one of the few that doesn't just complain.

People need to know their work is appreciated, even if it does annoy us that we can't play our games while they're trying to figure it out.

Agreed. Developers tend to only hear the negatives. Its so nice to get a positive comment about dev work.

I should jump onto one of those threads and let them know.

Do so here.

Getting a post together.

Posted! Thanks for the link.

Just a heads up I'll be away from technology for the first part of tomorrow, taking a little trip. I'll post in the evening at the usual time.

Don't forget that in 5e, you can freely move within a creatures reach and not provoke the OA. It's only when you *leave* their reach do you provoke.

Yeah, but where would I move to, I can't disengage and attack at the same time? Oh wait, thanks for reminding me, I finish the turn by moving Jax a little south so other heroes can get in.

Is everyone alright with Urth taking the plate armor? It's clean and ready for anyone if they want it.

I think Dymm has the highest Intimidate. Do you want to lead the questioning of the hob. A couple of us can give you advantage.

Are we all short resting to recover some hp and resources?

I will also be taking a short rest, which means everyone gets an extra 1d6 healing. So make sure you add that to your regen.

If someone wants to help out with my Persuasion. (which was higher than my intimidate. I went nice cop route.. But if someone wants to give me advantage that might be good.

I am assuming after the interrogation a short rest is in order. I know I could use it. Recharge my Inspirations.

Sorry, been a busy few days. Will update with social roll results in a few hours.

Still here, but I've been busy and didn't have much to add to the interrogation. But I'll catch up on posts and see if Pindleton can contribute something helpful. :)

Hobgoblin warlords have 14 int, they are cunning war masters. In their spare time, they study the vector calculus of electrodynamics (div, grad, curl etc) by candlelight mounted on the skulls of the fallen.

Behind the Massacres, Hobgoblin Warlords, next on VH1.

After this one, would you guys be ok with me rolling group checks?

You can always make any check you like for Jysson. And especially so if the group is waiting on me.
