Now there is something with the Shadow bloodline that I cannot figure out. On Herolab there is a 'shadow' condition which give a +4 circumstance bonus as long as I am in shadow. That is why I keep casing Penumbra on myself every 10 minutes. I cannot, however, figure this bonus out as to where it comes from (other than from the Shadow Bloodline, as it disappears if I remove that bloodline). I know one of the abilities Shadow gives is a bonus to stealth equal to the level of a shadow spell cast for 1d4 minutes...but I do not thing that applies, as Penumbra is a 0-level spell.
That all said, I will uncheck the "shadow" condition on Hero Lab, and reduce my stealth to +15 as I cannot justify the extra +4 and must conclude it is a system error...I will forward the character to Hero Lab to see what they think. Sorry for the confusion...I took the system as correct without checking all the factors...
Duskade nods her agreement.
"I can get to the far side of that machinery and then we will have them flanked. I have magics to perhaps render them either unconscious or dead."
Not wishing to hit any of her own people, Duskade lowers her crossbow and extends her hand towards the final gunman. In a low voice she murmurs an arcane phrase and a bolt of utter darkness flies from her outstretched hand to strike her enemy unerringly.
From the darkness, Duskade aims down her light crossbow, placing the fool whose weapon misfired squarely in her sights.
She will want to stay in shadow, so I am not sure if I need to roll stealth to stay hidden in the Penumbra she already cast
Duskade nods at the wisdom that the Mistress of Faith is imparting, but is shocked when she conjures the fire elementals and now pits them against the class.
Do we need to roll initiative?
Duskage quickly fades from view moving herself to a safer distance where she can work her magic, or ply her crossbow.
Duskade steps out of the forest gloom, the same unreadable look on her sharp face.
"Why a study of the elements? I believe we all know of the four, but what about the quasi-elements, of which shadow is prime? Do we get to learn about those as well?"
A quick question. I have been looking on various web sites to find out if the spell Prestidigitation could be used to produce a small flame, or create a small amount of water. Some say yes, and others say no. Just wondering what your take would be.
Wow after listening to you guys and seeing your characters, kinda feeling underwhelming as a little sorceress. I guess I can always hide in the huge shadow you make...lol
Staying in the shadows of the great conifers, Duskade breaths in the cool, thin air. So different from the moist, heavy musk found in the swamp and the welcoming darkness of the Banyan trees. She wonders if these trees, like those of her home, have special powers to turn back the fog. But she remains quiet, listening and watching from the shadows as the children take in their lessons.
Duskade is a sneaky character who will be taking some levels in rogue in time. She is definitely a distance damage dealer, or backstabber. I also have her older than most of the other characters, so I hope that does not cause any problems...
Yeah, I can see how it would be pretty difficult. I had thought, because I believe this adventure is done in chapters, each could take a chapter and run it, or something like that...or each runs their own separate game..like I said just trying to think of how to include all the wonderful characters that were made :-)
Oooo..I am very excited and nervous..only 5 hours left!!!
Thats funny because I have a Zen Archer in another game as well....I think Eclis and Pari would work quite well with one another...(Hint, Hint Yorik..lol)
Hey Lexi, its Vik from the Kingmaker game....did not notice you were interested in this one as well...best of luck, and maybe we will get to be in a group together again!!
Here is the completed portfolio for Eclis, my Wayang sorceress. Any concerns please just ask and I can change/alter whatever is needed.
Thank you
