RoW: Let's Thaw the Frozen Stars! (Inactive)

Game Master Daxter

Fair enough, I also know how feared it is, and so I mentioned it. While I have made Paladins fall in the past, it was more for ongoing issues than a 1 time thing, and was also to teach him a lesson :D

For me, it's real life issues. If I am slowing things down, feel free to GMPC me. I just got very busy offline with a new project is all.

I will be unavailable from October 19 through the 27th. I am celebrating 25 years of wedded bliss in Disneyworld!

Congrats, Avora! Have fun.

Oh, and congrats on the cool new work gig with CoastCon!

Mez - any chance we could have used up the day's other healing spells before we bedded down for the night? Ankih can burn his flame spell for a CLW, and Avora and Lachna may have some CLWs left as well. Kalt is down 6 hp, so would appreciate a boost to start the day off right.

And I presume we'll we heal a bit from 8 hrs rest, right?

Thank you!

Yeah, that's fine, I kind of figured that would have happened.

Ankih cant burn his flame spell, its a domain spell slot

You can spontaneous cast your domain spell unless you are a theologian:

She cannot use her spontaneous casting ability on domain spells...

pg 41 Core book...
Spontaneous casting...The cleric can " lose " any prepared spell that is not an orison or a domain spell in order to cast any cure spell of the same spell .level or lower
Sorry...XD

Hey all - just a heads-up that I will be camping Friday to Sunday, so no posts from me during that time. I can post up until Thursday night, and will dive back in on Monday.

Just a heads up for my gamer friends.

A combination a poop-ton of work and my wife losing a family member yesterday have made it difficult to get on the boards and post. This little crazy time should alleviate sometime between now and Saturday, and hopefully I'll be able to get something on the boards very soon (like tonight).

Thanks for the patience!

Welcome back Kalt.

Welcome back Kalt.

Thank you kindly, sir.

A Reminder: I am going on vacation starting Sunday until the next Sunday (the 27th). I most likely will not have the ability to check in during this time, much less post. Please GMPC me during this time, as required.

Is the troll wielding a two-handed spear or a one-handed spear?

regular spear wielded two handed

I was considering grappling him to keep him from kiting us and from using that spear.

Note to self....prepare sun metal spell from the ultimate combat book, next rest, should of had it prepped, but forgot to look in that book til now.. XD
Sorry for making him flee Sven but I'd get wacked healing Kalt elsewise...At least I hope he fails his save...

Well he's not going to be fleeing until after Sven gets a whack at him in either case.

Hopefully Sven drops him here. Kalt already roughed him up pretty good.

Unfortunately, Kalt was right in that the Troll had healed up on his own before the fight resumed. Prior to Sven's smite, he had only taken 9, which healed to 4 during his turn. Sven's hit only put him to 14 damage taken, which will be more when the AoO finally lands on the Troll's turn.

There are 3 flasks of oil, 2 alchemists fires and a lit lamp in the entryway of the cave. Somebody burn the darn thing!!!! XD

Sven probably can't keep up with it but he'll toss another javelin next turn.

Depending on what happens with Lachna and the others, the AoO might have a chance to drop him. Then there is just that annoying Oracle to deal with...

Flying oracles aren't Sven's job!

I hope everything's okay with Bugsby. I'd check on him but I don't really have a way to contact him outside the forums.

Same, I sent him a PM, and I know the GM of the Kingmaker game we're in together has also. I just hope everything is OK with his work and family.

We should be getting back Avora at least after this weekend.

I need to leave for dinner. If the 22 was not enough to spot the troll and finish him, Sven will use that roll to grapple the oracle.

I don’t think he can try to break the grapple and use the freezing touch in the same turn. Were you just flavoring his touch attack as his wrestling struggles?

Don't have the books in front of me so I can't check what type of action it is to frost touch, but you are probably correct that it would be a standard, and therefore negate his ability to try and break out of the grapple after freezing you. Consider it only as a damaging attack and not an escape attempt.

Yeah it's a standard. I figured that was the plan. Thanks for clearing it up.

The oracle is currently pinned. I don't think he can make touch attacks.

I looked at the pinned condition and saw nothing about inability to attack. Can't move, but nothing about not attacking

Pinned characters typically cannot attack.

Would it help if I dug up some sources for you?

Please, away from my books and only have the online rules which did not say they couldn't attack

Sent you a relevant PM.

Would email be better?

I forwarded the PM to your email just in case.

I was waiting on a response to the stuff I sent you.

I looked at the email and PM, and thought it over. It's a supernatural ability, so no issue there. I agree that under normal circumstances, he cannot make an "attack" while pinned, however since he basically freezes his body to deal damage, and you are crushing him against your body, I'm going to GM rule that he can still affect you with the ability, and it's your choice to hold him still for everyone to beat on and take the damage, or let him go.

Okay. In the future can you warn me when that will be the case? I pinned him with the belief that it would stop him from attacking and even asked ahead of time.

Just so I'm clear for the future, touch attacks from supernatural abilities circumvent the pinned condition?

Touch attacks that can be projected from a body can always occur when some one is holding onto the target. Like grabbing an electric eel or many ooze effects.

Can you get on gmail for a bit? I'd like some more clarifications.

I just realized that Sven’s better off using his fists than the dagger. =P

Okay, Sven, time to get some position on this thing so that we get AoO's on it as it backs away. Or we flank it if it doesn't back away. And then we killllll it.

And a little Bugsby grease wouldn't hurt, if he's got any left.

Catching it in a flank is going to be rough. It's got to be pretty hurt still. It only had a turn's worth of regenerating.

Sven mounts the troll

Won't Avora get jealous? Badumpcha! *dodges rotten fruit*

Other kind of mount!

*hurls fruit*

Should we total up the extra damage we're doing or will it not matter?

Naa, as long as someone keeps beating on it, it won't be getting up.
