Gack, g*!*#% it, I forgot about that, apologizes...

That said, as you worded it, you cast the Forbiddance on the area of townhouse and the mindscape is a distinct demi-plane from that original area and so it could be argued not affected.

I'm not saying this is necessarily correct but it seems like how I'll play it going forward. The Organization did offer the rod of Threnodic spell which helped make this possible, so I'm trying to help here...

No worries! I'm trying to reconcile Gift's action with Pontiax and family being a programmed illusion and the solar casting a defensive spell on them.

I'm tempted to go with Gift's action because it looks cool and have the solar attack. What do you think?

rule of cool


I will be traveling next week. It probably won't impact my posting much but conceivably it might.

We're between arcs so I might put out an ad for another player. Starting them close to the arc's beginning might help someone stay engaged.

Sorry a bit distracted, will try to get a post up tomorrow.


Traveling today and working tomorrow, so I'll post on Tuesday.

Hope you enjoy the latest arc concept.


'Scuse the delay in posting, I was recovering from my trip.


So this latest arc is yet another effort to have a different approach to PbP. It's a bit challenging but hopefully interesting. Let me know if you have any suggestion.

Give your character wide latitude find stuff also.

Does Arlo have time to say goodbye to his wife before he leaves? Mainly for RP purposes.

Yes - but this will be just a quick trip. The adventure won't really begin until you enter the "resort" where you'll use your reputations...

I will have to wait 'till tomorrow to post. Sorry about that.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

OK, there is much to learn about this situation. Assume that complete of a given NPC or quality requires concentration (and forgive me for missing earlier rolls and investigations ).

But now, focus on one or two of the characters/qualities/possibilities at a time, describing the investigation if possible. "Do two people seem to be enemies" is a great question but a complete answer to questions like that won't necessarily come immediately. (And keep in mind "rival" is more mild than enemy).


Well,

I feel like I have to give you a little more to go for this.

Apologies if folks weren't sure how to proceed earlier. I'm hoping this will clarify possibility...

And any questions or comments welcome.

Well, now the discussion has become fascinating.


Due to a situation where a friend got into an accident driving my car and insurance and threats ensued, I have been occupied with high grade baloney and must postpone posting until tomorrow. Hope you find this arc interesting...

Assume Likeness (Su)
An ascendant psion of 8th level can assume the likeness of any Small, Medium, or Large creature as a standard action that does not provoke attacks of opportunity. The ascendant psion’s abilities do not change, but he appears to be that creature, relying on his Bluff and Disguise skills to deflect suspicion. Alternatively, the ascendant psion can simply alter his appearance to not look like himself. In either scenario, an ascendant psion gets an additional +10 circumstance bonus on Disguise checks when using this ability.
This ability replaces the discipline ability normally gained at 8th level.


So this arc is winding up. Message me if you have any for requests for upcoming arcs. I do have an idea but input is always useful.


Gift is going full god mode, her plane and minds will I hope shift to a higher, possibly shimmer plane, who knows. Where they end up is up to the GM, I loved playing GIFT and she was great to play.

Arlo is OK I think I may go back to playing Lyra.
We can find a good baby sitter. HAHA, we know a Dragon who may be a good bet.

Or I could make a new PC, I will have a think. I think Lyra may be fun again. Given the missions we are on.

How Arlo and She deal with Gift subliming [see notes] who know. The Sublimed don't tend to come back and interact with our reality. Why to much fun up there in the higher planes.

Let me know what you think Arlo and crew

GM_Panic, returning to Lyra sounds good to me.

Could Arlo also be sublimed as well?

Whatever you want to play.

Let's see, other arc ideas... I still like the idea of Terexaltherin unknowingly acquiring a powerful magical book (maybe even a sapient one) for his library, having it cause some odd things to happen and then perhaps have someone powerful hunting it down. Maybe a non-Dark Trader but still evil force seeking after it.

I do also like the idea of defending the Organization against a Dark Trader attack. Or maybe having to go to the rescue of another Organization team (one Terecho was with could be neat).

Arlo can be sublimed, there's a logical place in the narrative coming up.

Lyra is very welcome to rejoin and another character could be an option.

Arlo Gift is going to become the positive force in this new cosmos, If you enter the orb, she will pull you to her side and elevate / sublimed you so you can survive the experience od being there when a new prime reality comes into being. By all means leave an heroic imprint :)

Hi all,

A close in fighter with Arlo
A Wise, sneaky rouge with Terex
A massive mage Azzim.

Lyra will be as she was clothing and with a long range rifle of some kind. A ranged fighter, sniper. Some tech crafting skills and gagits.
Tech head in other words.

I just thought Terexaltherin, Gift made dragons
Feel free to do as Arlo did and enter Gift proto-Plane
to teach the Dragons there. I think that would be really cool.

Azzim would you like to also contribute to Gift plane?
Like add magic into the plane, There is Psionics but magic can be there as well.
Feel free too

I prefer the "never even got to say goodbye" thing, and at this point it'd take a retcon for Terex to be involved.


I shall post tomorrow, it's been a long week. You folks have outdone yourselves, btw.

I've been toying with the idea that Terexaltherin (and maybe Azzim) might have some long-term after-effects from whatever going through that crystal inflicted on them. :D Not sure what said after-effects might be, though...

Mm I'm wondering if Azzim lost something as a result, memories certainly but maybe something else too. Quite possibly this was for his own protection.

Odd holes in Azzim's memory could be interesting, yeah. I'm debating about Terex starting to feel a bit... unstuck from material reality, like his repeated brushes with these entities that live outside normal space and time is starting to affect at least his mind, if not more. Like every now and again he catches himself looking where someone will be in a second or where they were a second ago, or sometimes he briefly feels like he got a glimpse through his surroundings to... something else. Nothing major enough for game effects yet, probably, but enough to be worrying.

Terexaltherin, can I ask whats tyhe range on your Telepthy Hub mind?
if its not super long range thinking Lyra may give out encrypted comms units

Terexaltherin's telepathy range is 220 feet--pretty good, but if we split up in different locations not enough.

Ok cool, I will get Lyra to give you all long range comms units, miles etc, but not world wide etc.

Didn't we get permanent group telepathy for one of the previous missions? That doesn't include Lyra but it could be extennded.
