The Avalon Chronicles

Game Master lynora

Mkay. I should be on most of the day, so we can power through the scenes I left going (which is mostly what we're waiting on I reckon, I've still got 4 going >_>)

Well I'm here all day, but Tybalt and Dave are at 4:30 am and Sara is like seven so she fell asleep at a reasonable hour for her. So . . . . .
Just waiting for tomorrow.

Ok, In answer to Tybalt's ?

anyway... my android is how how i get most of my posting done on my android, and I wont have the cash to get it turned back on for 2 weeks, so i have to use the actual computer for my posting

Ah. Me too. ^_^
I would hate having to post from a computer. :/
Two weeks will be by faster than you think. :)

Yeah, but I now have no texting, no fun games online, no youtube and NO PAIZO!!!! :'( My life is ruined...

-also In 3 weeks I go to college....
so 2 of my 3 weeks of vacation I'm 4ever alone...

This is why I love having an awesome smartphone and kickass laptop :)

2 things....

1. Dick (no offence :P)
2. I have an awesome smartphone... Just have no $$$ til next tuesday

Ok-
Is anyone waiting on one of my charecters?
Has Gareth responded?

I responded, yes.

Alright, catching up on that. One moment.

Just so you guys know - if Nimceleb is within 30ft or so of Vai, she has a Barred Mind effect.

but he has no defense against melody's ability to not find anything

ooh, Vare, I can summon the dreaded dreamwraiths and dreamshades :) that probably will not make you like me...

:)

Ikea trip accomplished. Half the stuff already assembled and put away. The rest has to wait until tomorrow because my assembly area is halfway full of stuff that needs to be taken to the salvation army. Looks like I will have to take it over there in the morning before I can assemble the rest. And more old furniture from college is replaced with newer less hideous furniture. :)

So are we almost to the point of having the current scenes wrapped up?

All my scenes are done

Yay Lyns back! Ya. I've ready for a while now. ^_^

All of mine are done, except Kezzin who can be handwaved whenever we need to move on.

Yeah, had a nap there. I think Rena and Tryko'Sam will probably be over shortly, and if we need to, we can just fade on Melody and Vai having small talk over their hot chocolate. :)

Finishing Adon and vriskra. Shouldn't take too long, can just be spoilered for that last bit.

Has ardente gone to bed yet?

I sincerly doubt Ardiente is going to sleep tonight.

I wonder... since he's immune to being fatigued/exhausted, if he would even /need/ rest.

Thoughts? I mean, he probably /enjoys/ sleeping... and might have a biological need to, but his training has been pretty harsh.

Either way, he'll be in Ryleh's lair, and working.

Just a confirmation- marcell is going to bed.

Mechanically? No he doesn't need to
For the purpose of flavor/ this game/reality? The human body can, if trained to do so, can go without sleep or rest indefinatly, this is your immune to fatiuge however the mind is different, if you go eight days without sleep or sleep like rest you will go crazy and then die.

Mel is just chatting (like Fireclaw said and that can be wrapped up in a single post anytime

Not really. There is no set limit to how long you can go without sleep. 8 days is a good estimate for insanity, but death doesn't really happen simply because of lack of sleep. On the other hand, it may cause death due to response time, lack of memory restoration, and in general making you a threat to yourself.

There were studies done, about two years ago I think, it's because what your brain does while sleeping is go through your memories and rate how important they are, based in part on how often you thought of the event furring the day, and decides what to through out, and links together what it decides to keep

Bottom line is that one day isn't gonna affect him and the point is now moo.
I don't think that there's going to be a point where he stops sleeping. If there is then we can hold this debate.
Yay useless debate ending!
:P

I think it's more likely that his training would have taught him to survive on infrequent catnaps rather than zero sleep at all. As long as he gets some sleep then he avoids the whole insanity/death problem. I would guess that a full night of sleep would be like a luxury to him.

I'm just bored, and I find psychology and the brain facinating,
I'm not really trying to argue just pass the time and share what I know :)
Though if you don't sleep more than 20 min tonight, I'd say that Ardinate's thought processes will be somewhat sluggish, even if he is physically fine.

Mechanically? No he doesn't need to

Thanks. I feel so much better knowing that. I've only been awake three years...

I can put you in a comatose state for a handful of hours.... if that would help?

hmmm... A wizard did it.

No, actually, since I would still be conscious.

Oneiro. Don't look up fatal familial insomnia.

Actually I hijack your mind... you see what I say you do... :)

(sadly this is where the dreamwraiths and dreamshades come in but still)

Random nerdrage-

Spells that should be removed from existance-
Shivering touch. A 3rd level touch spell that only having the cold subtype makes you immune to, and deals 3d6 dex damage.
OP as heck, especially if you can maximize it, (say, meta magic rod...) resulting in 18 dex damage with no save on a touch, making anything with 18 or less dex helpless with one spell.
Even without maximization, a slightly above average roll = helpless dragon.

Alright, we're wrapping up Vriskra/Gareth, Vai/Melody, and Rena/Tryko'Sam. And then change of day. And I think that those scenes are close to done, so soon. :)

EWWWW! freaking holy crap

I thought it was 4th?
Edit: also, undead, constructs and anything else immune to ability damage are likewise immune

Addendum: it's characterized by a complete inability to fall asleep. Even things like sleeping pills and tranqs don't work, unless you go super high dosage, which makes the patient go Into a deep.unrestful coma.

I think it takes those who have it like a year or so to die once it presents.

Cold subtype, baby! Woo!
^w^

Oh, and the spell lasts for 1/round a level.
Note that this means that you can use it once a round- it states that on the touch, they take dex damage, not a penalty-
Thus- it can be used multiple times.

And secondly- yeah, 3rd level spell. Frost burn is the book of complied overpowered ****.

That's just 3.X in general. Don't like it don't use it. I don't even look for spells/feats from 3.5 anymore.

3.5-
It's either op, suck, good home-brew, or core. (And sometimes, even then, op or suck.)

I like the things in 3.5. If you argue down some stuff it is pretty even. :)

OP in Pathfinder: Frigid Touch. 2nd level spell with no save: 4d6 cold damage and staggered with no save.

Yeah-
"If you argue down"
If you take exactly what it says.... It makes a mess.

My suggestion for shivering touch-
Change it to a dex penalty, give it an actual duration instead of touch per round, and don't allow dex to go below 1.

OP in Pathfinder: Frigid Touch. 2nd level spell with no save: 4d6 cold damage and staggered with no save.

Pff.

Um I think that they ment that the duration was for how long the damage lasted...

Nope. Then they would have said "penalty", not damage.

Damage is permanent, and hard to remove.
