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. :)


27,151 to 27,200 of 54,470 << first < prev | 539 | 540 | 541 | 542 | 543 | 544 | 545 | 546 | 547 | 548 | 549 | next > last >>

So i shall re-file trivial knowledge back to useless trivial knowledge then?

Sounds accurate to me Ed. :)
(I've also always kinda wondered about that. I wonder how those fish live like that.)

On earth... deepest point is 34,994 ft

The max depth for current subs is classified max depth of mine was approx 1800 ft. My class of sub has been decommissioned since the 1990'

So the pressure would be 349.94 times 44

Posting from my nook no calcultor app so you will need to do the math

You may know all this but just wanted to say gravity and pressure are not 100% the same thing, you get pressure because of gravity [or other things,], stuff on a gravity well getting all squished, you may be fine in a pressure hardened ship underwater and the force is acting only on the outside of the ship, but gravity is an "attractive" ubiquitous force, it permeates all mass. A gravity hardened ship may do well in a gravity well but any soft stuff inside, well you get the idea.

Angler fish (especially female angler fish) are possibly among the most horrible animals.

What always gets me about Ironman is the fact hes human and can do a crash stop deceleration of about +60Mph to 0Mph an not have in internal organs rip themselves apart, then I have to kick myself and say, "Its a Hollywood film, really has nothing to do with it" then I feel a lot better

42!

I Would go to help with the defending Kuros, but I'm not sure where I am nor can I deal with plagues very well Ana.

Can't really dodge plagues.

I would go but I'm kinda distracted


Both Doppelganger Except younger looking Factotum 16/Taskshaper 6/Chameleon 10(Gestalt)

Need a ruling on Grim's two feats.

Charnel Miasma and Otherwordly Countenance

Neither description list them being mind affecting, but they both sure as hell seem that way. Which would be mean Ace is unaffected.


Male Human-Reaper/obitu Death Mage 11/oracle 1/grim reaper 10

from a rules heavy game they would both be non mind affecting
but as for rules as intended it could go both ways, I mean how is the sickened condition blocked by mental protections
and there was something in the channel miasma thing about smell so that might not be mind affecting,
and it's not like you couldn't make the save, at least one of them and it's not like shaken is a big deal,
sickened I'm going to have to look up what that exactly entails.


male Aasimar Muse-touched Image gestalt waterbender 11/Disciple of the Healing Waters 5/ Bard (street performer/song healer) 16

I would guess Charnel is a no, while Otherworldly is a yes. Just my opinion.

But both is in that area of immunity to mind effecting I don't like applying.

Mind effecting is just so broad. Couldn't they have many a few sub types in there.

this makes sense

I do want to point out the only reason this is even a question is because of rules light, the powers don't have the mind altering descriptors
because of rules light we can now debate on whether your mental defences work anyway


Male Weremonkey Rogue/Ranger/Trickster

Shaken is pretty much always the result of a mind affecting effect.

I should probably go to sleep
in fact I should probably figure out a way to retroactively sleep, dang this game is addicting
CURSE YOU BIOLOGICAL NECESSITY OF SLEEP!!!!!

It's a necessity? Huh no wonder I decide I'm tired every so often. :p

yep if you say "ALL" mind effecting is blocked the most of what the bard bard dos is blacked, how would a Bard with immunity to mind effecting know if he/she is doing it right, that sad sad song is mind effecting yet they would feel nothing. I think being immunity to mind effecting should have some real drawbacks. No empathy, no insight that kind of thing.

This my thinking


Male Icy Catfolk Image Warlock/Rogue 16

That depends on how you get it. I was born normal and when I passed out and went splat from a couple thousand ft. in the air he was rebuilt and given a Neural Lace. This acts and I quote "as a mental firewall." So it works to block magic, tech, psionic, racial, etc, Attacks on the mind. This includes mind reading, suggestions, etc.
This leaves him open to fear through intimidation and persuasion through diplomacy. I felt that that the way it was worded should leave him open to actually being afraid or persuaded through non-magic kinds of things.
He managed to rig it up to take telepathy but can't figure out how re-block it.
He can use it to communicate with technology but can only do it with simple things like the school intercom and the pen-phone-thing Dave has.

THey seem to not so much be mind affecting as they seem.... physical....

one of them makes you want to heave your guts onto the floor, the other one seems like he is giving you a look and looking back "feels" uncomfortable...

not so much affecting your mind as giving you imput, to recieve a desired end

if arthur finds out about this he will want to examine your thing, see if he can replicate it,


Grushdeva du kalt misht

Melody is the only one which can stand a chance of recreating it


Male Icy Catfolk Image Warlock/Rogue 16

Apparently it's organic so I kinda doubt anyone can.
Plus you'd kinda have to crack my skull open to do so. . . .

Male Human (half forged) 11 invincable iron man/11 generator

daw, next level I will be able to talk to machines with my mind with a thirty foot radius, I can currently hack stuff with my hands by making a knowledge architecture and engineering and treating it as a diplomacy check, needless to say I have that skill maxed

that being said, of course I would enlist melody's help in the matter.

people get their skulls cut open under controlled conditions all the time and are fine afterwards (barring pre existing conditions)

this reminds me what is the procedure for making magic items once you are in game?
I am planning on making a pair of gloves slotting them into my suit halving their resale value these gloves are called the Gloves of Torment, they give +10 to heal checks and have antagonize wound and stabilize at will on them
after being incapable of doing much more than put band aids on 4 ranks in heal this would be a reasonable thing he would want to make


Male Icy Catfolk Image Warlock/Rogue 16

You realize that you're able to do basically everything this does, correct?

Dark Archive

Male Human (half forged) 11 invincable iron man/11 generator

strike that
I misread something
I am vulnerable to mind affecting, and it's advanced tech
with advanced tech I go "ooh shiny!"


Male Icy Catfolk Image Warlock/Rogue 16

So you don't need it or can't use it?

Shadow Lodge

Male. Vaguely humanoid Ninja 3/Bard 1/Ranger 2/Scholar 1

what?


Male Icy Catfolk Image Warlock/Rogue 16

Did you scratch that out of not needing it or because you couldn't replicate it.
It's labeled as "simple" neural lace so I can assume that everyone there has one of these.

Male Human (half forged) 11 invincable iron man/11 generator

I thought you were saying that I could do everything that melody could do
(I weirdly misread this as she) and so I typed up a response to that then when I saw that I misread it I edited it

Re: making magic items. We generally try to have the magic items serve some story purpose. Ex: Nimceleb was originally design to prevent Aegythrax from finding Vai. Sure, constant Mind Blank is powerful, but it has served it's story purpose so it's mostly just extra fluff.

Male Human (half forged) 11 invincable iron man/11 generator

so would I be able to make gloves to let me have a modicum of healing ability?


Male Icy Catfolk Image Warlock/Rogue 16

Oh. Aren't you part construct? Wouldn't that give it to you?
Make a helmet like magneto has!

Dark Archive

Male Human (half forged) 11 invincable iron man/11 generator

yes I am part construct, and no that doesn't give that to me (though it does give bonuses to the saves)
