Hey no worries if we all end up blinded, then I can set off the pyrotechnics spell at close range and not worry about blinding anyone else by accident.

And now I am stealing from Shakespear......He was not referred to as the Bard for nothing.

I think I messed up with crushing despair. I don't think I have access to it yet. Maybe had it based on an earlier document. Sorry about that. Also, would Serenity apply to spell-like abilities gained from worghest?

Yes, it would.

Did you ever do a knowledge skill break down for hags / covens?

Try Knowledge (lore) or Spellcraft.

I meant something like this:

Hag and coven lore Knowledge nature or arcana

DC 15

DC 16

DC 18

DC 22

The DC 18 spoiler is for a specific hag coven, not just all hag covens

KNOWLEDGE (INT)

In many cases, you can use this skill to identify monsters and possibly their special powers or vulnerabilities. Not all creature types have a dedicated Knowledge skill; some can be subsumed into other skills. Recommendations are as follows, although some overlap is assumed.

Creature Type / Knowledge Skill
Animals, plants, and vermin = Survival
Constructs = Spellcraft
Dragons = Knowledge (lore)
Fey = Survival or Knowledge (lore)
Humanoids (civilized) = Streetwise
Humanoids (uncivilized) = Knowledge (warfare)
Humanoids (monstrous), giants = Knowledge (lore)
Oozes = Profession (mining)
Outsiders, elementals, and undead = Knowledge (the planes)
Sea monsters = Profession (sailing)
Subterranean (any) = Profession (mining)

The knowledge gained depends on the check results, as shown below; information gained is cumulative.

Check Results / Information Gained
10 Type (fey, outsider, undead, etc.) and features common to that creature type
15 Creature name and environment
20 Organization and (Ex) abilities
25 (Su) and (Sp) abilities
30 Information unique to individual

The various check DCs listed are in no way dependent on the CR of the creature; however, the rarity of the creature can modify the check DCs needed to gain specific information. Monster frequency can be determined on a campaign-specific basis by the referee, or can simply be taken from the appropriate entry in the 1st edition Monster Manual, Fiend Folio, etc.

Creature Frequency / DC Modifier
Common -5
Uncommon 0
Rare +5
Very Rare +10

For example, learning the name, type, and environment of a Rare creature would require check results of 20 or higher.
Action: Usually none. In most cases, making a Knowledge check doesn’t take an action—you simply know the answer or you don’t.

This spares me making a separate table for every single monster.

The hag/coven/changeling have so much information that I wanted a very specific way to get the job done. Yeah most of the time I give limited information, though I have done a few of these for different things....

Especially Monsters that never got to be in PF

Kelgan should be up, correct?

I believe so

Was he also no blinded by the spell?

Yes, but blinded =/= unable to act

No complaints about my song!!!

I had to put pelt in there. The second verse I am thinking will have the word belt in it....

Sorry, guys, I totally dropped the ball there!

No worries. I'm still here!

yeppers

Yep!

You are up Kelgan

Just a heads-up: starting tomorrow a.m. I'll be out in the desert and unable to log on, through the end of the month. Hopefully we can pick back up when I get back.

I'm a lurker here, but thought I would share that Caspian's player has been MIA almost since the last post he made here. I think I found a couple posts from the next day.

We have been waiting for him in a few games and, frankly, are a little concerned. Anyone know him in RL?

I wish I did. I love having him in the PBP, and I like his posts elsewhere. People occasionally drop off the boards, so hopefully that's all it is. Hope he's doing well.
