The Avalon Chronicles

Game Master lynora

This is a high level rules light game set in a school for magical kids, kinda a mash-up of Soul Eater, Harry Potter, and X-Men. :)

Also, are you using magic to hide them, tesadrian? Nothing can hide them from me, short of being on another plane.

I can't argue with you anymore, you only paid for five minutes.

What, Jen?

I'm in the same time zone as him. Usually I'm next door to him. Right now I'm a couple states upwards on a mission trip. Still the same time zone.

Yes. But what does that have to do with anything.

You see everything. Renkai can't be seen.

There is a rather large difference in the detail of jerran's and orenio's

I left Oneiro's deliberately vague.


Well, it seems like an argument of "I can find them anywhere, unless they are on another plane" and "Epic magic super stealth scarf"

What about a silence spell? :D


M Extrodinaraly Contrary Meatbag Fourm pyromancer 1

Oh, his scarf makes it so there is a "black" spot where ethos is.


She/They Entropic Axiomite Doodler 1/Author 5/Talespinner 7/Ad-Lib Artist 2/Worldbuilder 5

Pretty much. Two people are saying they have unbeatable things that are directly opposed... and now they're being put to the test against each other, and neither should be able to fail at its requisite task.

This is against me finding tesadrian's swords.

The scarf has been destroyed thanks to Anahita. (Geez, she's a troublemaker ain't she?) It has since been replaced, but the new item can have severe consequences if Ehos is not careful. I think we ruled that it doesn't really help Ehos stealth (At least, unless he turns invisible) - he can still be seen visually just fine. I was more thinking two oddities interacting. I agree with Icehawk that Ehos would register as a 'blank' zone to Roel.

Melody: I /love/ minutephysics. Great guy, awesome videos.


Female [Classified] Bard 16 / [classified] 16

@ Renkai. I had Melody leave the room so you could talk to her without revealing yourself. or are you the kind of boyfriend that is just a stalker now?

Concealment , even total concealment- like being behind something one cannot see through, but counts as no object for the purpose of attacks and does not give cover. Unless your clothing gives cover, i see through it.

First of all wearing armor so your argument is null and void

And 2nd Actually :) they are stored in their own personal demiplane..... So..... Undetectable

Not according to sails. His bag of holding, when disabled by adon, dumped everything out instantly.

I understand the want to use pictures instead of text descriptions... But they really really ought to get important details like hair colour right. Otherwise we end up with a situation like this. Not everyone can remember all of what people look like, especially not the two newer folks in Orthos and Jen: we have to work with what you gave us. Perhaps Treisdan's hair shifted colour because he lost his pacts, or something?

When he lost half his soul he lost the ability to illusion himself constantly


She/They Entropic Axiomite Doodler 1/Author 5/Talespinner 7/Ad-Lib Artist 2/Worldbuilder 5

At the very least it wouldn't hurt to have a short text description next to the picture link of "like this except X Y and Z changes" >_>

Renkai, Icehawk. FFS, take your argument to PM.

I am getting tired of reading "I shot you. No, I shot you. No, I dodged." arguments that drag on and on and on in the discussion thread. I mean, didn't we all get enough of this crap when we were kids?

While this is directed at Renkai and Icehawk at this particular moment, everyone, please, in the name of all that does not suck, take these kinds of arguments to PM when they form.

This has been said many, many times by Lynora, DB3, Fireclaw, and now me. And probably a few I have not mentioned.

He also comes from a different deminsion


Male Icy Catfolk Image Warlock/Rogue 16

I don't think it's an argument, Mr.Lurch. They're just trying to hash things out so we can play our game and get things right.
also it kind of needs to be here because PMs can't go three ways. :)
I do understand not wanting to get Lyn upset, but this still needs to be decided and this is the easiest way. :)


What me and icehawk did was sorting out stuff: we both gave concessions to reach a suitable answer.

But Renkai and icehawk both refuse to budge. At that point, it should go to PM. Honestly they should've discussed this before, when Roel was in the room with Renkai. That way they could have avoided assumptions.


Male Icy Catfolk Image Warlock/Rogue 16

If you want you can move it to our discussion page. It gets it somewhere else, ne?


"male" Ooze? sorcerer 6, fighter 16, ??? 10.

Alright. Read some things, it checks out. Have to retcon so much it's not even funny.
Btw- only the sword thing was wrong. I can still see him perfectly.

he assumed stuff, and is using his ability in a way it shouldn't work which makes it difficult to respond to... I laid on the thing so he couldn't see me and avoid the problem entirely...

Actually, i just give a more detailed discription then "that sword guy".
Problem solved, moving on.

Not really. I can disrobe you hair, hight, build, everything except color.
I'm trying to avoid massive recons here.

Here is the rules

rules wrote:

Some creatures possess blindsight, the extraordinary ability to use a non-visual sense (or a combination senses) to operate effectively without vision. Such senses may include sensitivity to vibrations, acute scent, keen hearing, or echolocation. This makes invisibility and concealment (even magical darkness) irrelevant to the creature (though it still can't see ethereal creatures). This ability operates out to a range specified in the creature description.

Blindsight never allows a creature to distinguish color or visual contrast. A creature cannot read with blindsight.
Blindsight does not subject a creature to gaze attacks (even though darkvision does).
Blinding attacks do not penalize creatures that use blindsight.
Deafening attacks thwart blindsight if it relies on hearing.
Blindsight works underwater but not in a vacuum.
Blindsight negates displacement and blur effects.

Argument is over. Anything else is handwaved. Problem soved. Now can we please stop?


Male Human Rogue 16/Magus 9
True Seeing:

Blindsense (Ex) Using nonvisual senses, such as acute smell or hearing, a creature with blindsense notices things it cannot see. The creature usually does not need to make Perception checks to pinpoint the location of a creature within range of its blindsense ability, provided that it has line of effect to that creature. Any opponent the creature cannot see still has total concealment against the creature with blindsense, and the creature still has the normal miss chance when attacking foes that have concealment. Visibility still affects the movement of a creature with blindsense. A creature with blindsense is still denied its Dexterity bonus to Armor Class against attacks from creatures it cannot see.

Blindsight

Is diffrent. You are using the wrong rule.
Can we please, please move on?

Girls girls your both pretty. Can we stop with the back and forth? I'm about to sound like an old person in a minute but, que sera sera

When the Avalon campaign was started it was a place where we just had fun not a place to try and one up each other. I might not be around as much as was in the beginning, but damn. I've seen it since the beginning of the new school year. What the hell happened?!


M Extrodinaraly Contrary Meatbag Fourm pyromancer 1

I'm trying to end this conversation now.
Just handwave. Problems all soved.


M Extrodinaraly Contrary Meatbag Fourm pyromancer 1

I'm going to take a break. Be back in an hour or so.

100% this. This is a place for fun. People get far too competitive, and that is the main problem. There is no "winning" in this game. Hell, there's not even loot or XP. Just Story.

If we wanna talk about who has made the most boss character, I'll get Pun-Pun in here. Otherwise: stats and abilities are just a way to express the story in unambigious terms. That is why this is a rules light game: so that the stats and rules do NOT get in the way of telling a good story.

Failure is part of life, so too should it be part of the game. Honestly, I have more fun when my characters struggle: look at Ehos. He screwed up big time, and so many different little stories spawned from that. Same thing with Vare.

Further: the other players in this game are your co-authors in this story. They ought to be your friends, but if you can't be friendly, at the very least be civil, and if you have a disagreement, either settle it in a private forum, or ask someone to mediate. DB3, Lyn, Myself, Dalesman, Kryzbyn, and Misterlurch are all people who know the setting well.
