THAT said...are we in a rush to go? Is there more to this plane worth trying to investigate?you were leaving? the horn merely calls your conveyance to the main island.
Ah I missed that somehow. THAT makes more sense.
As for gnoll killing holidays...I say pass. They can rot on this island...maybe with a few stabs in them if they try to assault us before we go...
But anyone can kill efreeti, after all, they like attacking big cities and making a spectacle. Gnolls, they hide and stay in places nobody wants to be, like the desert of strange pocket planes. It takes a real expert to take down the curs in these types of places.
I say we begin to head back to the pier. Perhaps after some normal healing, and, if necessary, some rest. I am sure that Voodoo can find us lots of trouble without us hunting it out ourselves.
Maybe we can just collapse the demiplane on the way out? That would solve the gnoll problem.
Ok, so I am fine just waiting until we can get the diamond dust to have Varkata heal me. It's not that much of a detriment right now. I would like to keep the Cloak/Ram skin. Varkata or Amir can have my +1 Cloak of resistance.
I certainly can, though of the two of us, you've been the more hard-done-by from failed saves. :)
I suppose the logic is that if I live I can undo the damage?
I'll update the sheet to reflect it.
Well the logic is unreasonable because Amir is a cranky old man, but your spin makes a LOT more sense to be sure ;p
Now he is a cranky old man. But, he used to be a cranky old bastard.
Didn't think Hydrae were that fast. Crud. No time to cast spells still.
they can't (20'), but charging double move + 10' reach just gets there. actually, maybe couldn't reach Amir, but eh... spreading the love.
Should have tried Grease, but with 4 legs etc. I thought a Will save was the better bet.
So...another snow day here!
We actually didn't have more snow. Yesterday, Wednesday, was the second day above freezing since early January for us. At least some of the 3'+ of snow we have on the ground melted.
It's so ridiculous here. We got 6 inches, so they have to cancel another day of school because the building service workers stayed home and couldn't clear today's snow. I'm from the midwest originally, so we wouldn't close school there for any less than a foot of snow. We've had so many snow days at this point that they take them away from our spring break...Which the wife and I planned to have a little mini vacation in SC. I love the days off, but hate that our plans our going to be ruined.
Just want to say that this campaign remains one of my favorites and has been one of the top 2 throughout its entirety. We still have 3 out of 4 of the original players after three and a half years which is pretty amazing for pbp, and Varkata/Tilnar has done a great job replacing Faelar.
Anyway, lets keep having fun as we head for the City of Brass, hopefully without too many additional medical ailments (death, disease, polymorph, etc).
Sorry for the delay, family crap and phone explosions.
Its another day of 45 degrees and clear skies. A veritable oddity around here as it has been closer to 55 and grey...which is par for the course.
I hear you about snow days though, I'm from CO originally and I used to have to walk to high school in a foot of snow, lol. Both ways. But living in the NW does show that if you don't have the infrastructure to handle the snow then even a couple inches is hard to contend with.
It is another beautiful sunny day here. Ok, so there is 2-3' of snow on the ground and it is 20 degrees. However, there are rumors swirling about the meteorological circles that we may get above freezing this weekend - for the second time since New Years.
Karethas is a little girly man.
But we love him anyway because before he was like a little brother type and now he summons creatures that maul people and fires laser from his eyes and stuff. ;p
Yup, our party consists of the old man and the girly man. Look at the positive side, Faelar is not with us or we could really have fun categorizing him.
I prefer "aged" man. Like a fine vintage of...something...
Well, yay. I'm the most butch one here. :P
I prefer "aged" man. Like a fine vintage of...something...
Vinegar?
Don't forget there is "piss" in there too...
Maybe with the exception of Varkata I have to imagine that our group is sorta paranoid at this point, lol. Too many div switches, betrayals, twists and what not its no surprise that the moment someone is nice to us we look at them askance like they are sure to soon do something to screw with us.
Oh, no, Varkata isn't terribly trusting of anything she finds in a weird magical trap dimension.
Sorry about the wierd posts. My computer died and I'm having to use an iPad v1...
It's a miracle it even connects to the Internet anymore.
No worries -- I can relate, really -- I've had a few weird phone-inflicted posts every since they firewalled away my access from work.
I have also suffered from similar issue recently so I empathize.
Likewise, I remember the dark days of working with Window's machines and the frequent crashes, which resulted in hours, or more, of lost work.
It seems a bit pointless for a creature to have a great stealth and then have to take its surprise action reassembling. I'd give it an 'ambush' SA for a free attack against a surprised creature, but it rolled a '1' anyway.
Well, if it had been a thoughtful and insightful god who created the creature, then it probably would not be left in a barren wasteland broken into small pieces.
I've never so wished to see a rust monster.. ;)
It's a cool image. If you didn't make it stealthy, then stupid players would try to stop it from assembling.
What, and ruin all the fun?

i'm away for spring break, but prob back by the time Amir gets around to posting again.
; P
After 5 months of winter (we have had snow on the ground since late-November), we have finally hit 60 for two days in a row. Might even get to 70 today. What little snow is left will probably finally give up the fight today.
Our average temperature in February was the second coldest on record, almost 10 degrees below norm, which is not good for a usually cold state, New Hampshire.
It became spring here around January and until the last week or so of March and now the passes are snowing and its getting colder? I dunno.
Not sure I love the idea of loading down with restoration spells rather than more useful spells -- but then, not knowing if I'll be able to use any magic at all, it might make sense to do so.
Of course, I might also be able to channel them into ash.
I could try a few Delay Disease spells, which provides temporary immunity -- and, worst case, I could use some higher slots to get more "useful" spells.
Barring that, probably my usual spell load-out, replacing divination with something a little more direct like Holy Smite, Persistant Vigor or Spiritual Ally -- or an air walk for Kzrira...
Karethas- I don't think I said that you needed to recharge the staff. You just get 5 charges to use each day.
Ohhhh....awesome! Need to char some more stuff :-).
I'm basically assuming that for most of this day I will not have access to my spells, except before and after the fights. So if we fight the ghasts and then we back up and I can use restorations to get the martial characters back to full for any additional encounters, then to me it is a good use of the spells. Memorizing a lot of control and damage spells aren't going to help in an antimagic zone. I have some of each of those, just not as many as normal.
No, I get it. Just kind of sucks equipping one's self to be the healbot. ;)
At least you HAVE combat usefulness besides your spells. I'm going to be cowering in the corners :-).
You have all sorts of skills Karethas. You can tell us how to kill the bad guys. You can run around screaming like a girl to confuse the bad guys. You can ask Gen whether she would condone you using a weapon and fighting.
seems like this is a big enough battle that I should have a map up, but I am having technical difficulties at the moment.
Remember that period of about 20 minutes when we had a paladin to be our meatshield instead of just one squishy little battle cleric?
Good times.
