Yeah this fight is no joke so decisions matter; I would say, you could run in there a throw bombs or something if especially if he is stunned. But now it depends on what your Insanity is. So Either you can wait on the GM or roll your own d100.Check what extracts you have, things like that.

"While under the effects of this spell, the target is immune to any new
attempts to possess or exercise mental control over the target"
That is not dependent on the above. It's a completely separate effect. There are compulsion effects that do not give orders or establish commands.
I think you are wrong.
| Derrik Stonesmith |
It is dependent on the save to be suppressed, the current effect is not new it is one that was placed upon the target prior to the spell. That is what NEW means. It is all in one paragraph to describe what the 2nd effect is, otherwise they would separate the effects to 3rd and 4th. Compulsion effects that do not give orders or establish commands are not stopped by Protx regardless, so that is moot. It is a first level spell if can only do so much and is clearly a preventative measure more than a fix. It can force rerolls, which is awesome but it does not stop a person from being mind controlled even if they fail.. it will stop someone else from mind controlling them afterward however.

Hmmmm, what if another character, with a 10' magic circle against evil, runs up to a dominated person, bringing them inside the circle. Is the dominate neutralised as long as they are inside the radius? (Assuming they make the save this time)
As long as both are in the radius of the circle, an evil dominator can't issue commands to his slave.

Most of the mental wounds can be healed by Heal or something along those lines.. If this fight breaks the character they were not truly ready. Oh and overland Flight works like Fly so no Running.. but it lasts Hours tho... The CR of this fight.. is about what Cthulhu is.. but not as bad.
| Derrik Stonesmith |
Well, you are staggered, according to the rules you can technically still charge but only your speed rather than double... so you would have to use your Amazing Init to get a standard to then charge I believe. After that it is up to you as that also puts Koran in possible Death range.
| Radsworth |
Keep in mind, none of us can die from HP loss as long as Deathless is in play... and it covers us for miles.
Al-torac will still probably drown with Yingzen, but no one is really dead yet. Means Daisy is going to be busy. She's hasted though, so she can move at a good clip.

He cast Mythic Deathless.
"The target's soul is strongly anchored to its body, preventing death from hit point damage. No matter how low the target's hit points get, it remains alive (though not necessarily conscious)."

Yes I can do all of those things if you wish Dr. Grimm. Name what you wish to mostly do with the character and I could probably find the mechanics to help that. The more detail you give the better the response of course.

I was hoping to boost bomb damage, increase number of attacks per round and do damage that has no resistance. I guess the saver DC are not so hot for the Philosopher's stone.

Ends Justify the means is the main reason that Evil tends to happen thats how alot of Paladins Fall.. And become Lawful Evil without realizing it. Casting an Evil spell is an evil act just like casting any of the Alignment based spell is that particular alignment.
And e can't Augment it Rynjin Mythic paragon does not allow you to gain such things unless you already have the appropriate level.. which in this case is MT 8. It however does help for other such things.

Okay I think I can cook something up while I am at work tonight.

I've always thought this was the dumbest rule in the game, bar none.
"I killed a child! Better cast Protection From Evil a few times to make up for it!"
| Derrik Stonesmith |
Yeah and as this game was structured being good is alot harder than being evil. Hrmm on interaction with the image I think we would get a save from up close correct? Well those that interacted with him at least.

I had already acted MJ..
Derrik watches the two gossip about the FO's " We havent lost yet split'brain! Just watch yourself lose the bet! You should know by now as I dealt the final blow to you.. As long as I breathe.. I can fight as long as we can fight, we will win! "

Stuffs some popcorn into his bearded face....
Marvelous...nom....nom....the red men were brilliant when they discovered that ye could roast corn into this delicacy favored by spectators ever since....nom....nom.... By the way, Derrik, I believe I've located the reincarnated King David, who slew Goliath with a well-aimed sling-stone, and returned as Jack the Giant-Slayer in the Middle Ages, somewhat after you were Arthur, my boy.... Then he came back as a rather surly young fellow known as Jesse James.... Anyway, his current incarnation was born in the land of Australia.... He cut his teeth battling aberrations and horrors of the elder world in the Outback, blasting otyughs and hordes of ghouls and ghasts raised by Shub-Niggurath, The Dark Goat of the Woods With A Thousand Young, and her cult of insane aborigines and occultists.... He explored the eons-old vaults of the Elder Things under the desert sands of the Outback, battling against Flying Polyps, ropers, and other terrors from the Far Realm of Madness and Nightmares.... He overcame mythic trials against shoggoths, mythic priests of the Dark Goat of the Woods, and sundry other fell challenges, and is of like power and experience to the Fierce Ones.... He has recovered his old six-shooter, an artifact of power like unto Excalibur.... I shall introduce him to ye when the time is right.... He is a friend and admirer from afar of the Fierce Ones, and would be greatly honored to join their ranks to fight against Cthulhu in the Final Battle....

" Is that so Merlin the Great? Though your praise gives much to their capability, I am not sure it this person is as ready as you believe. I am also not sure how I feel about such a sudden occurrence, but if you trust him, he must have some capability. He should e ready for the end of times, and we need every soul we can to stop even the Great Old Ones' fury. I plan on stopping him once and for all! Maybe I can test him a bit before or eventual Clash with the great Titan..? "
| Derrik Stonesmith |
Derrik shuffles uneasily " Alright, just see to it done, and Merlin the Great, We have already been through this.. I am not Leader, No King, No authority.. I am simply Derrik.. or Arthur.. but you need not address me so formally.. I am a simple Son of a Blacksmith who doesnt want to world to go to hell as long as he can breathe "
