earthbending
firebending
bending basics

Useful seeds in this circumstance include cold blooded firebending, excavate,

Your bonus to the check is +35 for cold blooded firebending and +34 for the others mentioned
According to your sheet you also have stunning fist with a +2 to the DC

This is what happens when you take monk levels on top of bender levels and have a caster level high enough to cast haste
On the other hand, chao's haste castings and Ki points (and quick runner shirt useage) are very limited, so you'd beat him in anything long distance easy

Barely faster than chao when he's pushing hard enough to potentially kill himself or chao at the speeds mentioned in the first post?

So yeah you can go racing bike speed while still having time to stab people or highway speeds when not

What's rakki's speed
Also as a note if I'm willing to damage myself to do so I can go faster than the speed mentioned by as much as 30 ft per round without falling unconscious
Though not for long.
Good for the short burst before the finish line

doing a bit of number crunch and Chao Yin can hit a base land speed of 115 on a take ten (120 on 11, 130 on a 20) and knows the haste spell for 145 (150 on an 11, 160 on a 20)
that is very fast for a land speed.
that is faster than any of my characters bar Dave's fly speed
on a 20 that's faster than any of my other character's speed bar none

Did some calculations and that's 91mph... On foot...

important question though, are bending abilities affected antimagic or by Dispel magic (it might also be a good idea to know if they're affected by SR)

Because if he runs into an AMF and that's capable of turning off his wind boost he could go down from 160 to a "mere" 70, reducing his speed by more than half in an instant. That'd be a serious acrobatics check to avoid falling on your face (and then your butt... And then your face... Then your butt.. Then your face... Butt.. Face... Butt...)

Does anyone else have a similar land speed?

The one bit of excitement happened when chao and a couple of other boys use a rather impressive combination of magic and bending to pants the young avatar in front of his crush and probably would have gotten away with it too if they hadn't been heard laughing their asses off.

When they make their way to the designated teleport area one of the masters approach with a sullen looking Chao Yin in tow. The old master explains that chao still has much to learn, but that they believe themselves not to be the ones best equipped to teach him

Ah right, ok on reflection I have no idea what the answer to the "you thinking what I'm thinking" thing is,
Perhaps I need to be better about thinking like an a+!#!#@

As Chao is making his rounds in the temple, a couple of other, slightly younger Air bending pupils wandering the grounds as well. they stop when they see Chao and huddle together as though they are planning something. One of the boys turns toward Chao waving him over, there is a hint if mischief in their eyes.

pssst, hey, Chao, come here. they whisper. Chao soon recognizes them he has gotten into a bit of trouble before with them. they are definitely not very skilled benders. But they have potential, if, properly....motivated.

chao walks over a grin on his face "you have my attention"

With maybe some *ahem* appropriately cautious master benders looking on from a distance?

Hey sun, Mindori (weird autocorrect tried to get me to say "nudity") would you like to see Chao as a sparing partner?

I can guarantee that Chao will kick Midori's ass: she's level 3. ;)

But hey, I'm down.

he wouldn't be using his bending or spellcasting or any SU abilities, just a weapon only spar buuut his AC is really really high,

Alternatively there is grim, or you could use a random monk dude

Hey sun, Mindori (weird autocorrect tried to get me to say "nudity") would you like to see Chao as a sparing partner?

@lang: cool :)

Really? That'd be instant hate territory for me.

Oh, wait. I'm horribly mentally unstable.

Carry on.

lang's also a monk, so there's that.

Cool cool... Not sure how to help though
Chao could try to embarrass him when he tries, perhaps do something like use air bending to make him spill his drink on himself, perhaps trip him with a glider, make him fall on his face.
Not sure if you could call that "helping" though.

Lang feels someone glaring at him at that line, though if he looks around he most everyone seems to be enjoying the festivities

TNCIT should no rule this city because clowns scare small children and when I get scared, tornadoes happen.

Chao shorts, both at the audacity of what the younger child and lizard say and at the concept of Lang teaching him.

A young bald child similarially decked out in tattooes stands out from behind one of the masters he raises one eye contemptuously at the others around Lang, but for now, in the presence of the masters he holds his tongue.

Lang she did see it,

Her heart sank. It was just as well that Lang decided to assist her landing.

Likewise I did see your post, I'm trying to think up what to post, that and pack for vacation

I was thinking that the rivalry used to be at least somewhat friendly but he grew/grows jealous at Lang being the avatar/at the elder's differential treatment of Lang, somewhat petty as typical for children, beyond being somewhat petty in his jealousy ("I'm just as good as he is, probably even better, why do those old windbags pay him so much more attention than me! fine be that way I'll study and learn how to shut your bending down and I'll use my lightning and bending to kick your butt that'll show them" ) I hadn't decided much (for example not sure how long it will last)
I was thinking that him being designated as a sifu at such a young age was something he takes great pride in
Yup a dejin sorcerer somewhere relatively close in terms of geneology

Sure, you got anything in mind?

Ok, so not tonight, gotcha.
...
Wait... Isn't the timeskip tomorrow?

guess I can roll call here as well.

Lang: just returned form the temple tour getting ready to bed down for the night. (Midori can sleep naxt to me)

Mel: talking to Ginni, I think waiting on Ace since he came by to say goodnight to Ginni (in case he wanted to say goodnight to mel too <wink>)

Sun: being a pillow for Sara

Julie: sitting with Morrivan. about to doze off in her chair.

when do you want me to show up

hey lang, I'm done with the basic stuff,
even got a pic, give me a bit and I'll post it
