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. :)

Lyn, Dami's being disorderist. T-T
:P
But in a serious way.
Some characters are built in a way where stuff like that can't be avoided. Me for instance.
A way to make that a more general thing is to have someone else play an important part of the character.
Like Tarka and Lewis or Arthur and Hermes.
I would suggest the same thing to Capt. Wombat. If you could find another player who is on at similar times as you to play one of your new PC's heads, the interaction becomes a bit more genuine. It may be a bit harder, with posting ability and all but it makes for a better experience.

On the other hand, self interaction can be used in good ways too. Most of the times other PC's never ask the right questions or say the right thing to get a character development response. I'm not saying that's kosher, and you shouldn't search out your own characters to do it, but if other PCs pull you in with yourself, just go with it.

Exception to what i said about stone to mud-

A transmute rock to mud spell slows a stone golem (as the slow spell) for 2d6 rounds, with no saving throw, while transmute mud to rock heals all of its lost hit points.

But it isn't acting normally there.

Um... No. Roll normally, or just listen to him. You're effectively polymorphing part of his skin... Sr makes sense here.

(The reason it's an odd case with the other is because golems are immune to most all magic, except a few, witch basically skrew them.)

The layer is very thin. Most of the skin is already off, only a tiny bit is on the neck. You'd need the Nantes to do literally all the work on a cellular level if you want to remove it with no injury. Little injury, however, is easily possible by someone trained with a scalpel.

It was a joke... and also... How did you remove most of it from the /Back of your neck/ not exactly the easiest workspace...

I didn't.very little actually stuck to me when i was teleported out of the stone. But, what did come with me is... Problematic.

Also, meant stone, not skin.

Can someone fill me in on the Elven politics I should know?
My parents were well respected magical scientists.
Also I came to the school late last year so if any older people (as in not totally new this year) care to already know me, I'll roll with it. Make some stuff up. It's all good.
No it's not. Nothing is all good.
Quiet you. Ignore him.
*punches self*
*shoots self in foot*


Hmm...

Magical scientists as in they studied magic, or they used magic with tech?

Either way... there are only two established elven kingdoms on Agartha. Laeren (Ehos and Tyrrin's home), and... uh... Tamina's country.

Either way - Ehos actually bears no title - calling him a "Prince" is actually disrespectful among his people, since his mother isn't queen. Same goes for Tyrrin and princess.

Beyond that... if you want to be from Laeren, PM me, otherwise you can probably make your own stuff up.


Male Gian&Nero Half-Fiend Half-Celestial All Elf 3 cleric 3 wizard 10 mystic theurge / 8 fighter 8 gunslinger

Like experiment with magic and spells and stuff. No tech.
In technicality, I'm a failed science experiment.
They expected the two spells to counter each other and instead here I am, all wacked up.
I think Laeren would work better. Just cause there's more stuff to work with.
You can send first pm if you want.

The funny thing is, adon could die here, and I'm totally fine with it. I never meant to change this into a small crisis, but it sorta became one.
I guess we can't get through a day without a crisis.


Male Human Nurd

Noooo Adon can't die Carl needs him


M Extrodinaraly Contrary Meatbag Fourm pyromancer 1

Meh. We'll see what happens.
(Funny, you're more worried about his death then the guy who plays him.)

Your character, your call. They'll make an effort to help him of course. But in the end no one is dictating the outcome but you.

And, duh, this is Avalon. We just try to get through a day without a large-scale crisis. :P

I'm a robot. . . .

Hermes doesn't require any repetition.
He repeats back step by step instructions to the letter as Carl gave them.
"Is this correct?"

Is Hermes a PC or not?

If hes a Device that dos not have its own mind and all it can do its copy then I can get the Auto Pilot to do that and no need for Hermes, if hes a PC, Hermes needs to adaptively think or there is no PC to play in my book, hes do different from the data-Tablets


N/A Male voice Robot Ninja10/Machinesmith 1

Well he is a sentient robot. Think lieutenant Date from Star Trek. He's a robot and a person. He is a character but he doesn't forget things either. If something was to happened he has the ability to think and make a logical response and can improve things as well. He can at the very least perform a textbook flight. He won't make it any different but if something is inefficient or wrong to him he'll try to improve it and work more optimally.
What I'm saying is: He does have a mind. And a damn good one. He simply memorizes what you tell him without forgetting it. If you teach him exactly how you land it then he can land it exactly how you teach him. For all intents and purposes you can consider him a near emotionless, highly intelligent person with a photographic memory.


I have no say on this, but I know that Lynora has nixxed a 'perfect memory' character before, but of course take that with a grain of salt.

Beyond that - since Lt. Data is the source material at least in part for Hermes, it /would/ make sense for him to be able to repeat exactly was Carl has said.

Beyond that, not sure. Hermes would need a great deal higher Int than 28 to represent that, if this is the case. We're talking 50+ Int score.


M Extrodinaraly Contrary Meatbag Fourm pyromancer 1

Real life people with photographic memory aren't that smart at all, are they? They tend to live rather normal lives. Maybe high intellegence work, but overall, I'll ask this-
Can you name a single person in history who has become very iconic and significant due to photographic memory?


3 people marked this as a favorite.

Nikolai Tesla was possibly the greatest scientist ever to have existed - up among such giants as Isaac Newton and Einstein.

There have been claims that he had a near perfect memory.

Too bad he was bad at marketing, and that Edison was such a dick.

I only really say that because he is just a little more than a robot at this point. He's going to become more and more human.

His score is an attempt to be within reason for here. It could really be as high as numbers can go of you give him a while in the library here.
If he was human then yes his int would have to be much higher to represent having memory like that, but as a robot his memory and the sum of his knowledge and thought power can exist independently from each other.

Never knew that about him. Sweet.

But would you give him a 50+ int? I wouldn't, someone like that could have invented cell phones in the Bronze Age.

So... I've noticed a distinct lack of my favorite race in this game: halflings.

There is Professor Agave, but she doesn't get much screen time, even for a teacher. Thus, I'd like to make one. :)

Anyone got a list of character types already in play?


M Extrodinaraly Contrary Meatbag Fourm pyromancer 1

See, as far as i can tell, our 30 or higher in people here really don't act like thier int score. It's not intentional, we jut can't do it, because they are so, so far above ours.


Male Weremonkey Rogue/Ranger/Trickster

Ace has an Int of 36, and even he doesn't have perfect recall, and I'm not talking about just his missing memories either.

He's gotten drunk, he's had serious emotional experiences, suffered a a few concussions/head injuries, etc, all things that can affect your memory.

Of course, you're playing a robot, so in this case, you're cheating. Nothing normal can mess with your memory. EMPs or other electrical/tech effects might, but you're probably protected vs them, aren't ya? Maybe not immune, but likely a lot less susceptible.
