Ain the watcher's page

Yeah there's something going around lately i hear. Although may just be where I'm from

This entire place... Should be cleansed... Preferably with fire...

Ain walks over and waves a hand, casting prestidigitation on the handle to clean the mud... Hopefully its mud... Off.

this place is....filthier than i imagined

unfortunately i cannot, i only know the spell because the courts at my home dealt with necromantic magic frequently.

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21
Spellcraft: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13

identification is not my strong suit but, that one you have is Vampiric touch.

Those debuffs really stack...

Ain moves and casts burst of radiance in front of the back window to catch 3 of the ogres. Ain whispers a chant in celestial, at the edge of the silence bubble, in an instant there's a massive burst of holy starlight as he snaps his fingers

the red lined and single yellow, its a 10 ft burst

rounds: 1d4 ⇒ 2

damage if evil: 5d4 ⇒ (2, 2, 3, 3, 3) = 13

Its a usual thing this time of year. Holidays bring shoppers more than usual. Which means getting out late because 20 people decided, Hey that store closes in... 5 minutes..lets pop in

That said it'll get quiet soon enough and the extra pay for dealing with holidays is nice

Sprry for the hold up, I'll drop a post tonight or tomorrow.

Holidays get incredibly busy for me this time of year.

Merry Sanguinala to all

So I'm in the process of writing a small series of one shots focused on heroes of legend taming a land filled with kaiju level threats ie level 18-20 however with restricted gear.

The entire idea is the players are essentially being tasked by the leadership of their nation to head to a mystery land and kill monsters that are a threat to high level pcs.

I'm considering making a False Hydra one of them.

However im coming up with a few ideas, at some point i may need to workshop and test them. It'll be a bunch of monsters

So... Was watching dnd videos... Found out what the False Hydra is

Happy birthday, GM! WftC always looked amazing to me, I hope it lives up to the hype when you get to play it!

Side question anyone here own a steam deck by off chance? I'm wondering about quality

I have one! I'm very pleased with it. I don't know what games you're planning to play on it, but I find it works wonders with basically anything that isn't something really new and demanding. The one time I caught it really struggling to keep up performance were Baldur's Gate 3, and Honkai Star Rail, but then I mostly use it to play indies and older games.

You also have direct access to the Linux distro that the Steam OS operates under, so with some know-how you can basically let the thing do anything you want. You can (attempt to) load your Gog games and your Epic Launcher games on it, or download any launcher-independent game you want and just manually add it to your steam library so you can run it through Steam OS.

Bg3 was on the list... But so was Hades, Terraria which ive been wanting to try... Slime rancher

Its the combination of thanksgiving, Christmas and everything in between that does the damage lol

Sorry I've been quiet. Holiday season in my job can be annoying and i haven't had much to contribute. But i am here i promise

Ain is following, quiet. Keeping his eyes open

perception: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (11) + 15 = 26

I'll be little quiet this week, i work in grocery so ... You can imagine the problem

anything else about them? Details to figure out what type of giant. We can mount a counter offensive

odd collection of monsters...any clue why? If they're anything like the one we've already found, Big, dumb and have a severe dislike of fire

Ima be straight with yall. If those are the best candidates either side has, they should all just quit

the spider is at least Dazzled even if it passes.

Insert this whenever my turn drops.

Ain will cast burst of radiance behind the spider, its a 10ft burst so only it's affected. If it fails its blinded, if it succeeds its Dazzled.

He 5 foot steps back, presumably just out of the spiders range.

rounds blind or dazzled dc 17: 1d4 ⇒ 3

alignment damage, If its evil it takes: 5d4 ⇒ (2, 2, 2, 4, 4) = 14

I can, Stay close. Ain moves in

i can clarify, Ain moved to the front of the barn double move. i can move inside if we want to rush this and just provoke the spider to come out so we can go school yard bully tactics on it and actually start real combat. i only have spells to damage at the moment. if its the next round, Ain will move in, shield up to provoke the creature to come out

It'll be fine, I'll post when i can. Assume i am paying attention even if i don't say anything. I would normally go in blasting, but fire plus spider webs usually doesn't go well

I'm sorry, irl issues did hit me. Grandad passed away and I've been dealing with that

Ain will double move to the front of the barn, Shield drawn, either acting as an obvious target or a distraction for the stealthier teammates. He also keeps an eye out for aggressors

perception: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (3) + 15 = 18

no aversion at all, Ain ain't sneaky, he blast6

Ain ain't a sneaky sneak either, he's following and observing. He's the point and cause mass destruction sort

You're fine, i am here lol. Unfortunately my teenybopper siblings brought the Rona into the house and im laid up sick as hell

Do your strike, Get whatcha need. Businesses need to be taught a lesson

not all fire is deadly, mine can heal if i so will it. But if you need something burned, simply point and i shall unleash divine flame

So as it stands my group has an on and off friday 5e game

And a consistent sunday Pathfinder game

In the 5e game, I'm having a ton of fun playing a Haregon monk. I have a 55 move speed at level 7. I'm about to get the rogues bonus action dash. I have mobile. So basically i can move anywhere i want and it's been incredibly useful

I don't think so, only because we barely have time to play the games we do lol. Thank you for the offer though

Yeah my group plays a sunday 1e pathfinder game. Homebrew setting
I'm playing a crafting wizard, and the only other player is some combination of Skald paladin.

We run a much more extensive 5e game, not out of preference but the others in our friend group started in 5e whereas myself and our sunday Gm started in Pathfinder

If it is...that could be troubling... a bad sign

Allow me to thin the ranks friends Ain holds a finger out towards the pack of dogs and ogre, a small ball of fire builds into a larger ball, eventually turning blue.

fireball dc 19, Solar bloodline, Spell focus: 5d6 + 5 ⇒ (6, 3, 5, 5, 6) + 5 = 30

aimed at the red dog enemy, 20 radius to avoid hitting us if possible

Ain quietly observes tension in some, curiosity in others. He himself, seeming passive, almost alien in mindset, detached ti some plights and then possessing a child like curiosity in others.

His tone of voice keeps the same temperment, making him difficult to read I wonder how they define outsiders, by territory, religion or blood

I'm a bit of a bread connoisseur. I like my sammiches.

Miami onion rolls, Black pepper focaccia and sourdough are the best

Cilantro is evil and tastes of soap

Prefacing with context, I grew up in New England. I like to cook and recently i wanted pancakes but lacked flour. However i had cornmeal... So i played around and made pancakes from cornmeal...and they were absolutely delicious

Ain is quiet, watching from the back, listening to the conversation. He doesnt necessarily introduce himself directly. Whether its because he doesnt understand that, thats proper social protocol or his mind his wandering is up for debate.

he carries his eeriely calm smile as normal, pale as his mithral shield, My goddess would not approve if i turned down such a request. I was lead this way for a reason...There is more going on than is known. I do recommend caution, before we act.

Decided for now to just pick up a headband of charisma. Nice class boost for a man intent on chucking divine fireballs

I'll do some looking tonight then

Ain enter later than usual, an odd magic starry glow to his eyes fading as he does. A calm grin on his face, I would be glad to help Shining one. My lady has not yet released me from service here so i would be glad to accompany thee to whatever trouble is next.

Works for me. Thats money for more runestones and dwemer essence. And oracle things i can't think of atm

I'm saving cash to buy more things later. Hopefully the enchanted stuff we sell goes for a bit lol

Go for it, Imo. Its best put on an arcane caster

No arcane spell failure. It's classified as a shirt pr robe taking up the chest slot

The snakeskin tunic being an item not armor would be decent for anyone who can't use armor

Alain also had a mithral buckler and Mithral breastplate. Feel free to abscond with those if anyone wants to use them

Mith breastplate is a top tier item and I'd feel weird taking it myself

Yeah, i low rolled

but its a dc spell craft 26. My bets on it being powerful or pricey
