Hmm.

I think I can have some fun with this. Gonna look into using something I've been eyeing for a while, lemme get back to you later.

4d6 ⇒ (4, 2, 1, 1) = 8 7
4d6 ⇒ (4, 2, 4, 4) = 14 12
4d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 6, 6) = 20 18
4d6 ⇒ (5, 3, 4, 3) = 15 12
4d6 ⇒ (2, 2, 1, 3) = 8 7
4d6 ⇒ (5, 4, 4, 3) = 16 13

Gonna try to get some friends in on this.

This is very interesting, but I'm curious; are the saves in the base classes different from normal save progressions on purpose?

Edit: With the 3rd party stuff, I'm gonna look into finally getting into something related to Akashic Mysteries stuff. More information to come when I actually make decisions.

Hmm.

Too bad Thassilonian Specialist is from Inner Sea Magic, I've always wanted to play this AP with an archaeologist wizard who's fascinated by Thassilon. The kind of guy who's likely to be feeling out over the Runelords even while they're trying to kill everyone and he's trying to fight them.

Granted, I can still do that with a Wizard just fine.

I'll see what I can put together.

Another question about Briarblood; is it meant to duplicate the "X Affinity" abilities that the geniekin races get? If so, it needs to affect sorcerer spells and abilities. That's why wildblooded geniekin are so good.

Ooh, I've had a Soldier rattling around in my head for a while, utilizing the cybernetics archetype if I can get it to work. Dotting for interest.

Alright.

I s**@ you not, you can check yourself if you like.

Never touched it. Not one time.

OK, dragging myself out of the morass of inactivity to say HOLY BALLS.

Floating an idea, too. Adril is apparently fond of Simulacrum. Simulacra are Illusion (Shadow) school effects. If I were to look at the Adrils under Arcane Sight and noticed all but one of them radiated strong Illusion (Shadow) magic, this might indicate that the one without it is the real Hestram. Correct?

I don't care if there's no bandwagon for it, I would move mountains to get into a good Exalted 2E game.

But the fact that we are probably getting them from a government contractor means bureaucratic nightmares and delays. But the supplier thinks they can get it to the base 2 weeks after the mission departs. It will then be another 2 weeks before the Receiving Inspector has a chance to inspect the package, another 2 weeks to resolve the discrepancy with the lot number on the packing slip, and another 2 weeks to move the package from the receiving dock to the end user. And if you are thinking of going to the receiving dock to get the package yourself, the labor union is going to file a grievance against you.

Well if they wanted to do the work they shouldn't have waited a month to get me my damned knives. xD

Apologies for the delay. I'll get Zhu Li organized for the new scenario tomorrow, then post. Everything feels kinda... grey. Makes it hard to do anything.

Man, I hope Ioun Resonance doesn't make these things explode.

OK, seriously now, can someone please explain what the flying hell is up with Beaky III?

Hmm...

Would a physician of some kind be middle class enough for the influential merchant? I'm thinking maybe a Druid or an Investigator, crossed with something else I'm totally unsure of as yet. But I figure a medical professional with a reputation for good work might be safer than most in a place like Galt.

Maybe an herbalist or an alchemist who offers medical treatment as a side function of their business?

Sahess right now.

Misread the posts. Disregard my last IC post, I'm making a proper one after Arnaut's OOC post.

Why limit ourselves. set up a city, and in 30 years, we have bombers

Sounds like a great way to get mugged by the Technic League.

Hm... It's been a minute since I've played a knight. Let's see what I can come up with.

4d6 ⇒ (2, 5, 4, 1) = 12 11
4d6 ⇒ (1, 1, 4, 2) = 8 7
4d6 ⇒ (4, 4, 1, 5) = 14 14
4d6 ⇒ (3, 4, 1, 2) = 10 9

4d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 4, 3) = 14 13
4d6 ⇒ (4, 5, 4, 5) = 18 14
4d6 ⇒ (4, 2, 1, 2) = 9 8
4d6 ⇒ (3, 4, 4, 3) = 14 11

Point Buy it is, then. Wow, those rolls are butt level.

I'm interested. This sounds like a great place to play a very frustrated wizard.

Skelg: YEET

Looks like we could use a good old conjurer. I'm doing pretty much nothing at work today, so I think I can have something ready by EOD.

Is there a way for me to clear up Voss' eyes?

Hm.

Dot.

Stats: 4d6 ⇒ (6, 2, 5, 5) = 18 16
Stats: 4d6 ⇒ (4, 5, 5, 3) = 17 14
Stats: 4d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 6, 3) = 21 18
Stats: 4d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 6, 2) = 13 12
Stats: 4d6 ⇒ (1, 6, 1, 6) = 14 13
Stats: 4d6 ⇒ (4, 5, 5, 4) = 18 14

Update: my grandmother doesn't need surgery, they can fix what's wrong without it. Still planning on the trip, I leave tomorrow.

I was going to post saying I might be slow for a week because I'm going on vacation, but now my grandmother has been hospitalized so that may or may not be off the table. Updates to the plan to come as I have them, but if I don't check in for a while it's probably because of something s@~&ty happening.

Hmm... I'll see if I can come up with something good, and bug my buddy into the same.

4d6 ⇒ (6, 4, 1, 3) = 14 | 13
4d6 ⇒ (3, 2, 6, 1) = 12 | 11
4d6 ⇒ (2, 1, 1, 5) = 9 | 8
4d6 ⇒ (6, 6, 1, 1) = 14 | 13
4d6 ⇒ (3, 4, 5, 3) = 15 | 12
4d6 ⇒ (1, 3, 4, 6) = 14 | 13
4d6 ⇒ (2, 4, 2, 6) = 14 | 12

Welp, I just burned a good bit of negative dice karma. Have fun, guys.

Ooh, have fun everyone!

So, I'm trying to make Doctor Facilier's shadow, essentially. I'm looking at a Figment Improved Smokeshade familiar with the Shadow Form evolution, but it doesn't quite work; Shadow Form lets a corporeal creature affect incorporeal creatures. Would it be reasonable to assume it lets an incorporeal creature interact with the material world?

Long day at work today. Expect a post in 8 hours or so.

Ace has 35. Slacker :P lol

But is Ace's INT only 13? :P

So, due to an odd set of circumstances (namely my having an odd number of RP left over and hating increased stats via RP because they're bland and munchkiny), in addition to Common, I have 32 languages to pick.

Suggestions?

So, I'm not sure I quite grok the Favored Class Bonus thing: if I'm a Human with the Fast Learner feat, do I get +1 Skill Point and +1 HP for every single favored class level?

Edit: I'm also a bit fascinated by the Kingsglaive class from FFD20, but being beholden to a king wouldn't really work well for the character I'm envisioning, so how's this for an Artifact?

Hand of the King: A prosthetic left arm made of crystalized magic, created by the sheer will of a former Kingsglaive turned high traitor, seditionist and rebel when he lost his arm in battle with his former king. The arm has full function, as though it were a flesh and blood arm, and also allows the wearer to utilize the class features of the Kingsglaive class and gain levels in the same without being sworn to a king (though obviously one does not gain the salary of the Kingsglaive Armament class feature). Additionally, when wielding a Glaive from that class, the hand of the prosthetic does not count as occupied for the purposes of Spellcasting and class features such as a Swashbuckler or Fencer's Precise Strike, a Duelist's Canny Defense, or similar.

The Hand of the King can be destroyed if its wielder freely swears loyalty to a king and is then lawfully (though not necessarily justly) executed by that selfsame king.

War: Yes, this means violence. Obviously assume the same PG-13 standards of the site (I’m not big into ‘shocking gore’ in any case) but people will get hurt, by your actions or inactions. If you want to always win and save the day (and the NPCs) this might not be the one for you.

:D

A shifting context: Winning a battle is not winning the war. Even if you succeed, the larger tides of war may go against your faction’s wishes. This is not to say your choice won’t matter (they will be the crux of the game) but don’t expect the results to be what you (or your high command) expect.

:D

The Host of Freedom

:D

I am very flexible about alignments and classes, so feel free to experiment with LN paladins or LG barbarians.

Ooooooh mama!

As a rough idea that I can flesh out after I know it's not doomed from the start, how do you feel about a CG Virtuous Bravo of Cayden Cailean?

Also, any plans for Kintargo? My second idea is a Silver Raven, but I don't know how you'd feel about that one either.

Reminds me of the Dwarf Fortress steam page.

"Time is subjective."

Alright, ironed out that ranger who I answered the questions as.

Kenneth Avery is a sad figure of Roslar's Coffer. Newcomers know him as the strange man who speaks with ravens and occasionally comes to town to trade furs and meat for various supplies, such as arrows. He says little on these trips, and is often seen looking at the outskirts of the town with a pained expression. Natives recognize him as the son of the ranger Micah Avery, who perished twelve years ago when the town was destroyed, giving his life to defend innocent civilians as they fled. Micah's animal companion, a raven named Tremaine, had been tasked with getting the boy to safety, a task the aging bird accomplished by bringing the child to the unkindness of ravens that resided in the nearby forests.

Kenneth was raised by the birds for the most part, living off the land for much of his teenage years until the town began to rebuild. The young man tried to rejoin the community, but couldn't bear the sight of the scorched earth where the homes of his friends and family used to be. It's a sight he torments himself with on his trading trips, where he does his best to support a community that it would hurt to much to become a full part of, and in return obtains the supplies to make his hunting and living in the woods easier.

Hey guys, can you bot me for the day? Just... I dunno, try to bless Sahess' sword or something.

My head's not a good place right now, and I'm stuck in it.

Hmm... I think I might have something for this. No promises, but I'll see if I can work something out.

Stats: 1d10 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16
Stats: 1d10 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8
Stats: 1d10 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15
Stats: 1d10 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

Ew... Two eights, and combined with that free 18 and the two higher rolls I'm over 30 so I can't even knock one up to 10.

Level 20 Adventurers are probably terrified of doors through sheer Pavlovian conditioning.

You know, I always thought it was funny that rogues of all people got the "immunity to Flanking" ability, when they're confined to light armor and so it's just not going to matter against a high level creature.

Edit: Ditto Barbarians, whose motto is "My AC says no, but my Hit Points say 'yes'."

Huh. I always used Chileaxian to refer to matters of the state or organizations affiliated with it, and Chelish for characteristics: IE "Chelish Pride".

Learn something new every day. I'll try to watch that in future.

Hmm... I think I have an idea for a Trapper Ranger. I'll hammer it out and post it later, but the questions I can answer from his perspective now.

1: If we're in or near civilization, disarm and restrain them, then escort them to a town with a jail. If that's not feasible, tie them to a tree and make sure they stay fed and watered until it becomes feasible.

2: Orchestrate a fighting retreat. Make the opposition bleed for every inch of ground they gain, but make sure they don't catch us.

3:... Solve the puzzle. Not sure how this one is a question.

4: We can squabble over a game of darts in the tavern later. Comrades do not kill comrades. There are less bloody ways to solve problems. (PvP combat is bad juju, and we're here to have fun. We can work things out like civilized people.)

5: Surrender for now, bide my time and wait for a chance to spring a trap on them. Haste makes waste. Any good hunter knows the value of patience.

6: Organize the party and divide the room into sections. Sweep the room by the most efficient means possible. If available, sacks of flour or the ability to conjure water will make everyone's life easier.

... Please tell me the school year hasn't killed you.

I'm unfortunately not going to be able to post today, owing to having passed the hell out up until it was time to get ready for work. I'll try to have something up early tomorrow, but definitely tomorrow afternoon at latest.

Hmm...

Has anyone seen Hadestown? I found it recently and I've got one hell of a drive for some people sorta like that interpretation of Hades and Persephone: one all about the steel and electricity, one all about nature, opposites that fit together but also fight a bit.

Bonus points if you're willing to pick up Perform (Sing) with me. XD

As Douglas Adams once said, "I love deadlines. I love the whooshing sound they make as they go by."

The hype increases! Good luck everyone!

Ooh, five more days will be enough time for me to finish a second submission, and maybe get Sekiro to something resembling playable.

Too bad there's not a Bear Skald.

Barbearian made me laugh. But seriously, this is actually a really strong sphere, it's kinda scary. It does a little bit of everything.

Yes. That would be immensely helpful, especially since... bloody faction missions.
