Nik minor image only can create an illusion of a single creature.

Oh really? My bad.
I thought it was an arbitrary illusion in those 10'cubes xD
Can I make one gargantuan elemental that's missing the back where the beholder can't see? XD

edit: oh it does say an object ^^;
It also says I can move it within the area of the spell though, maybe it makes sense for it to dodge around a bit? I guess it's too late to edit the post but I'll get rid of 5 of those things

Thanks.

I'll allow it but if the beholder maneuvers around it, it will get a save.

In that case, I'll go with the slightly safer and more believable Large Elemental xD

This not-a-beholder is dumbass.

Well, that elemental seems totally useful suddenly xD
Also, I can't tell if you're going easy on us or if some die roll was involved in the targeting and we got incredibly lucky xD

Its the latter, but it sees when its abilities fail and can learn.

Its also funny that Nik choose to make an illusion of an elemental. Being on the Outlands you don't have access to the Ethereal plane, and thus the Inner Planes. To summon an elemental Nik would have to have a spell key, which is an additional a thing he has to do to make a spell work that wouldn't normally work. This is something that you can research and may add to the casting time. Even with a spell key there maybe more subtle effects.

But since not-a-beholder doesn't have know planes, it doesn't know that.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

lol, Nik should know these sorts of things xD

Summoning is almost always affected by the plane you're on. You are only able to call creatures from the plane you're on or neighboring planes. The Outlands borders all the Outer Planes and the Astral. But not the Prime Material, Ethereal, or Inner Planes. The Outlands for the most part is very forgiving for summons, but elementals are the one thing that you need a spell key to summon.

neat xD
I feel even better about relying on shamblers instead of Summons now, haha
Also, I'll need to do some spell key research stuff after we're done un-uglyfying Jek xD

Assuming this not beholder doesn't ace his next set of rolls and TPK us :)

I find myself wishing I had that sweet shield that reflected eye beams on Baldurs Gate 2. Minsc basically cleared that whole dungeon by himself with the rest of my crew just hanging out in the back and talking smart.

Always loved those games!

I only ever hit once with a good, full, mounted charge with a Ghost Rider.

Crit too. Did less than that cause I was only level two but it chunked the bad guy pretty good.

Fun times.

Always loved those games!

Baldurs Gate 2 is still my favorite RPG of all time.

So. Many. Hours. Spent.

A year or two ago I ran a Blackguard through the original and 2 back to back. I find that these days I don't have the patience for managing casters and caster battles at the end of 2 and TOB.

@GM: can Jek count as mounted for double damage lances and Cavalier charges? :3

Natural Mount (Ex)

A charger counts as having the Mounted Combat feat only for the purpose of meeting feat prerequisites, and substitutes the Acrobatics skill for any Ride skill prerequisites when acquiring feats that have Mounted Combat as a prerequisite. Because of his equine form, a charger can wield a lance one-handed as if mounted and deals double damage with a lance while charging. A charger can never gain the benefit of the Mounted Combat feat (or other similar feats or effects, such as Trick Riding) if ridden by another creature.

This ability replaces mount.

That's really kool :O

The charger cavalier archetype assumes a centaur but accepts any tauric. Centaurs have a hoof attack and bariaurs have a horn attack, so the abilities are adjusted accordingly. Here's a link to the charger archetype.

neat, thanks! xD

I can't wait 'till you're level 11 and using overrun to charge stuff xD

Miss and miss, not-a-beholder action incoming! Going to take me a bit to write it up.

Can I un-favorite a post? :D

The not beholder is technically still alive, right.

With Jeks Merciful Lance only knocking it out?

Cause dragging it around and it waking will be hilarious.

speaking of nonlethal damage, if you manage to give a creature nonlethal damage equal to their maximum HP, then all nonlethal they get after that is converted to lethal xD
So if you accidentally do their 2*maxhp+1 in one shot, even if it's all nonlethal, they're still bleeding out xD

Dat crowd

Lol, I wanted it to be clear which tokens were fighting. So yes very apt.

Just a heads up some people are reporting that they aren't seeing new post notifications.

What are the objects of our collective affection doing during all this?

The butcher and her husband, they are the red bordered tokens.

Right...what are they doing, how are they reacting?

They must possess these two beauteous people, who are cowering in the center.

I think they're still cowering...

Gee it's almost like some lizard dude, accidentally or on purpose, gave these two some of that stolen beautify magic.

right? they stole the sheen of Jek's fur FOR THEIR OWN NEFARIOUS SHENANIGANS!

@Rinika Bwahahaha. Oh I needed that. Sorry for the delay I'll get some resolution up tonight.

Sorry, I had to peek and favorite that post after seeing Delmoth's post above xD

Just don't let the cat out of the bag and spoil it for everyone else.

I'm just happy that she can think inside the box :P

Why is there blood droplets on my keyboard after reading those?

Speaking of bags, too bad Vaascht kept that sweet woven masterwork basket Gilly made. Jek could have made use of it!

you know, I just realized we have a sewing needle with a spool of black thread xD
I think I'll keep the spare needle and string/twine I just bought though...

Updated map and an image of the tower.

Holy poops that's exactly the sort of thing I didn't know I needed out of Planescape. Well worth the price of admission.

Definitely, do not see that every day!

Just a heads up I'm going through a system conversation at work starting the 11th. If it goes the same way the last time it happened I'll be pretty exhausted that week. So don't be surprised if I'm not responsive, hopefully things will calm down by the 18th but I can't promise anything.

Sounds good, best of luck with the work.

thanks for the heads up ^^
good luck with your system conversion D:

BTW, I just found out firsthand how annoying making a grid in google slides is, and so I made this.
Not sure why google slides is still really bad about rendering it when I tell it 10" wide and 6" tall, but w/e...

Yoink

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I'm posting it here 'cause of that one time you grumbled about the grid causing you trouble xD

Enjoy!

(It's actually 1001 x 601 pixels so that you get the black lines on all four edges, but a 10:6 ratio is close enough...)

When looking through the various magic bits and bobs creating Conor I very nearly grabbed a ring of feather fall.

Might regret not doing that now...

Ring of Featherfall is a staple on all my noncasters.

you guys are making me regret not getting a ring of bone xD

Does Rinika have a treasure chest or did that disappear with the rest of the tower?

Right? If she has a whole bunch of gems, I know what feat I'm getting next level >:D

You have a treasure chest.

ohdamn, nice!
