Old people are overpowered.

It's because they have all those mental bonuses.

It didn't seem appropriate for Skaar to fully understand all of the teachings. I feel like his chaotic nature would clash with ancient zen wisdom.

sorry guys. havent been so well today.

For my 1000gp of items I will just get masterwork breastplate and Rapier.
670gp. I'll save the 330gp left for the future if that's ok.

I might go some critical feats eventually.

Hmm. I'm blanking on the name, but I know that there is a buddhist god who represents that the path to enlightenment can come through extreme emotions just as it comes more commonly through meditation and detachment from desire. So, I've never been completely sold on the necessary lawfulness of monks.

Like I mentioned to the DM, I don't really like the Mysterious and Powerful Orient trope that's so common in fiction. It was cool in this instance because it gave Skaar a reason to be introspective (and us tortured types love being introspective) but in general I hate the trend of It's asian so its better.

Why can't the musclebound wrestler be as effective as the wise kungfu master? Why is the honorable samurai straight up a better swordsman than the scarred crude mercenary?

also got a masterwork shield. I'm alot tankier now and will try to help flank alot

Better armor and weapons, clearly. Eastern armor is the bomb.

Whether that's true or not I'll leave up to historians.

I hate when fantasy shoehorns it in.

Heh. I can only go by the numbers they give me. Tien dwarves must be the best smiths ever. :-)

Just dotting that I've ready everything. Long party night (theater kids and their crazy parties). As far as I can tell from a quick read there has been no new questions presented to me. My Sunday is awfully over-scheduled, and my Monday is none too nicer

Toramin is ready! Just to clarify we haven't slept so none of the used daily powers are back yet?

You can choose to delay until the morn if you wish. You're on a tight schedule but a few hours won't kill you.

Or will it? Dun, Dun, Dun

We good to move on?

Is there a good app to read and reply to these boards?

What kind of smartphone/tablet do you have?

iphone 4S

There's a number of RSS feeders you can use for reading and keeping track of updates.

For actual posting I just use safari.

Yeah, Bjorkus picked out a loincloth of resistance +1.

It used to be a cloak of resistance...

I think we are all silently agreeing not to talk about it. ;-)

It's being repurposed.

I'm an eco-friendly minotaur.

"Recycle. Reduce. Reuse. You can close the loop. You can close the loop."

Precisely.

No Halfings were abused in the making of that trinket.

They weren't using it!

I have a coworker, a tiny asian girl, that wears adult t-shirts as full body sundresses. This is like that... but reversed.

It's just good to know that your magical items are cruelty free. :-p

Well it's not like I'm wearing an actual halfling as a loincloth.

That'd be awkward and unhygienic.

That would be service with a smile.

I've always been of two minds about the drow as they have developed in D&D and Pathfinder.

On the one hand, they are elves++; and they have sex with demons for fun and profit. Cool. On the other hand, the whole their skin was blackened as an outward sign of their evil always strikes me as some epic level curse of Ham nonsense, which is much less cool.

Yeah, Toramin, I'll second that about their skin color.

Bjorkus, don't you know that rolling above ten is the devil's work? :-p

I can't help it. It's what I was born it.

Has Gabriel heard anything about the purge that the Aasimar (who I am assuming he wasn't told about) spoke of?

I'm predicting some sort of Fullmetal Alchemist-level city-murdering ritual.

I already predicted city-murder. :-p

Though in all fairness my example was continent-murder.

I don't wanna be a philosopher stone!

doesn't matter anyway. We're gonna die from con damage before we even get out of the sewer lol.

Did any of you tell Gabriel, maybe in passing? Omen, was Gabriel briefed at all on what occurred in the tunnels?

Bjorkus would have told him if he was at all curious.

I'm not sure we know enough even to be curious. For all I think we know, you had a nice walk through the tunnel. Nobody has mentioned anything in character, even Geoffrey. Who could have been like, "Hey, Gabe, we just apprehended your mom's killer." The guy seems a little odd.

XD Gabriel would have asked about their trip in the tunnel, especially after Geoffrey's comment to Bjorkus and his team about 'would have died down there without them'.

Bjorkus definitely would have mentioned the anti-paladin. It's not often he runs into people as strong or stronger than him. It's even rarer he meets people that literally cannot die.

Feel free to notice Gabriel being weird then. XD I've literally had him stop in the water, and he is muttering to himself.

I would actually like to roleplay out said discussion instead of going: "update!" How and what information is represented is important.

I would have too, but we skipped ahead while I was catching up on sleep thanks to my fever. :P

When did Bjorkus tell you any such thing? I don't mean to be terribly difficult, but the antipaladin reveal should happen in character or at least there should be some record of Bjorkus telling Gabriel that. If people think I'm being silly, I'll stop. But, I want to keep to in character knowledge.
