Aubrey's Other Eberron Campaign - The Unbinding (Inactive)

Game Master Aubrey the Malformed

Cold. But at least its dry here in Texas. (And up in the 20s and 30s)

SIngle digits in Boston, Fahrenheit.

Hawaii (barely even the real US)

Ha your are one lucky Grippli Living over there i hope tenro

My home computer blew up last night, not sure if it'll be fixed in a hurry, or if I need a new one, or what. Posting might be a bit disrupted.

Ouch...i hope you had everything in a back up drive.

I can sympathize, Aubrey. My home computer's been dying a long slow death by obsolescence. Like Will I hope you had back ups.

No, although its a few photos I have actual prints of in albums so it's not a biggie. Possibly I can get it fixed, or I'll have to buy a new one (although a similar spec machine is now cheaper and better performing than the one I have now, albeit its an expense I could do without).

Hawaii (barely even the real US)

That's barely even the real world!

<-- mucho jealous

Sorry to hear about your computer, Aubrey. Hope you didn't lose anything important.

Aubrey if the hard drive still works you could get a slave cable (about $20 USD) which will let you get any important files off of it by treating it as an external hard drive and accessing it from any computer.

Thanks for the advice.

I forgot about my home laptop (on which I am now typing) and so can get full access using this. My desktop is now at the shop - he reckons it's a graphics card problem, but hasn't fixed it yet.

Lucky its the desktop graphics card. At least they are often replaceable. My laptop graphics went, but it was soldered to the motherboard. Good luck R&Ring that.

Yup i had the same problem with my laptop.... couldn't replace the graphics card

On my troubles with the computer, the guy couldn't get the machine to play up and couldn't find anything wrong with it. I've got it back now and it's working perfectly. But I am now ever-watchful for betrayal by my silicon nemesis.

I hate that. It's like when your car breaks down, and then you spend the next month wondering about every little squeak or rattle.

Ebon, thanks for taking Rehil's turn. Sorry about the delay guys. Work has turned ugly this week.

grumble grumble stupid lizard grumble grumble lucky shot grumble grumble gonna get him if it's the last thing I...

Wow... this seriously took a turn for the worst.

Maybe next time I'll have you fight a barn door.

If there is a next time....

it ain't over yet cole...

Maybe the L-men will die laughing at us?

Man, that situation was set up just for Rehil. Oh well...

I know. You did set it up nicely for him. Take down L5 and sweep into the enemy's flank virtually unspotted. L8 might take another arrow shot at him, but he'd be behind the other two. Sneak attacks galore! If his hit points held out. I'm thinking about that potion.

Cole and Wultram down. A smattering of wounded. Three fresh lizardmen....

Hey, when we're all re-rolling characters, I'm rolling a dusk lizard. I hear they're TOTALLY BAD-ASS.

(I'm kidding. You guys can totally do this.... hopefully).

i will sure try not to die :)

Reminder: if your character is dying, you can use an action point to stabilize (ECS, pg 46).

Warforged just go inert. :)

i will sure try not to die :)

I wanna put on, my my my my my running shoes!

;-)

Oouuch!

It's not looking so good now. Rehil's on 1 hp.

Grazzat down 2 con has 9 hp -18 is -9 hp . Current con is 15.

6 rounds to death if he doesn't stabilize.

Portforged just spent the last of his power.

well i built Nalverren before it was clarified that his main class ability (that he hasnt gotten yet) doesnt work with ranged combat. so if he doesnt die, i will be asking to tweak him a bit (when a story-appropriate time comes)

Nalvarren, I just noticed you seem to have given yourself some traits. We aren't playing traits in this game.

ah, woops. I shall remove them.

Regarding my level-up: the investigator's main ability (studied strike and studied combat) were clarified to only work on melee attacks after this character was made (the wording was iffy and the stance and reason were clarified by Stephen Radney-MacFarland).

On that note, would it be alright for me to change my Point-blank Shot to Weapon Finesse?

Yes, that's fine.

Aubrey, I don't think I ever got an official response from you on how Rage will affect Cole (as a warforged). Or, more specifically (since he's immune to fatigue) if Cole can flip Rage on and off more-or-less at will.

It won't change much about him except for a few rage powers that are selected.

I tried searching but my google-fu is not up to it. How does HP gained from leveling work between rests? In my case the difference is being at 0hp or at 6.

It would certainly be nice to automatically receive those HP, but Im guessing we'll need to sleep to get them.. or, in Cole's case, repair himself.

Speaking of which... HP: 1d12 ⇒ 10

Also, can we just say Grazzat's dead? Trying to go back and track his HP and resources is kind of a beating. It definitely makes this moment more grim and our situation more threatening, IMO.

has he been MIA for that long...

He dropped the game back in December citing RL stuff.

Also, Cole's updated to 2nd level. Ready to rock!

it has been already that long?

I hope i can find some way to "deal" with you cole cause you are a serious drain on healing resources :)

Well at least you eventually have High AC..

Lol. Watch it! I've got decent-to-good AC already... you just happen to have ridiculous AC for our level.

As for healing Cole, ayep... the best bet is likely to be for some of our other caster or caster-analogs to pick up the Repair spells. Wultram would be a good person for this.

I'm also considering picking up a few rage powers to put HP's back on Cole, but he can only use them 1/day ... so not all that reliable. Unfortunately, i'm also entertaining the Superstitious rage power chain... which will make healing Cole all that more tricky. But I'm really not sure if i'm willing to go that direction because of this very problem.

you are talking about renewed vigor? i would def take it ...

My official response was that I was cool with it.

On the Grazzat front, I think he might be dead anyway but I didn't track it. I agree, a sort-of party death helps concentrate the mind.

Infernal healing would work if we had someone to use it, I think fast healing works normal on warforged. Via wand I mean.

It's up to you if you can justify it. I'm not sure how it would work from a RP perspective, unless we reskin it as a warforged development (Cole being a slightly experimental model).

Give yourselves half of the increase immediately, the rest can follow as you heal.

Oh, excellent. i missed it. Thanks.

And it won't come into play any time soon, anyway. I went with Swift Foot as my rage power (I HATE slow characters).

EDIT: @ level-up HP's... NICE! I'll toss 7 more back onto our team's damage sponge. :)

So rolling for hp it seems.

HD+1con+1FCB: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

EDIT: Oh yeah no more squishy for me, well not as squishy. Profile also updated.

well at least you have lots of hp cole...
:)
