Isn't the gnome bard already a boom box? Small-sized music source.

Indeed he is. Now if I can get him to roll off a little Sabaton or Powerwolf on his ukulele, that would realllly set the right mood.

On a different note, I'm oh, so sad. In honor of Supperman's brilliant visual, I was able to take my current avatar icon, and add in a boom box in the background. It was a subtle, yet meaningful addition to the picture. Unfortunately paizo does not currently allow customized icons (they say so in their help pages).

I like the mental image of Kwai Chang break dancing around to trip intellect devourers.

That cinches it! Kwai Chang is bringing a boom box to the next battle.

The Party Does Things Right?!?!?!?, Played 07-Feb-2018

...but so that Voren could finish crafting Bara's Headband of Vast Intelligence +4.

Bara will soon speak... what will she say?

Easy... "Hey, can I have more of those little brain puppy things? They're like little popcorns..."

... So they didn't want to destroy the third golem, figuring it was defending the morlocks, so we got: Malek raced forward and jumped into Kwai Chang's arms. Kwai Chang spent Xi points to put his movement up to 280. Yes. That is not a typo. I told him he could put himself anywhere on the map, because there was no way he couldn't reach it.

Well, it's not a typo, but it is a... GM-o? I guess it means I am soon to be in some situations that will require Kwai Chang to do some showing off: The 280 is my "normal" max speed (light- or un-encumbered). Remember monks have fast movement to begin with. If I am hasted AND use my Ki, I can get up to 480. (I plan on entering the Kentucky Derby if ever we make it to present-day earth.)

Cheers.

"That monk must be coming towards us: he's blue shifted..." humorous quip from a campaign I played in a while back.

I was trying to avoid that giant spider in the room...LOL...

::fails Will save::

I guess our monk is note quite as wise as he needed to be just then...

OK, got that outa my system, many pardons if I offended Kwai Chang's player...just being silly, not trying to be an ass-hat.

"Up 'till now, the soup has been fine" (A seven year old boy had grown up and never said a word. Everything else about him was normal, but he just didn't speak. One night at dinner, his mother asked him how he liked the food, and to his astonishment he looked up and replied, 'The soup was too salty.' Amazed, the parents asked him, if he could speak, why he had never said anything before. He replied, "Up 'till now, the soup has been fine')

And with that, I humbly submit my first post.

Along this lines, up until now, Kwai Chang had done really well at lots of various types of saves, has improved evasion, an outlandish Acrobatics bonus, and a handy number of built-in monkish buffs. But the Ki points? Ooooh, those are like gold. I only have 7 (I used my level-up bonuses for extra skills and feats). I really need them. I plan out the battles, especially the big ones like the spiders, with how many Ki Extra Flurry attacks, Wholeness of Body heals, Extra Speed movements, etc that I will need. And I can't (usually) use up the last Ki point - in case it is needed for damage reduction. And Abundant Step takes two of those puppies, So I tend to conserve them. And this was to be weighed against .... what? ... an Escape Artist roll? Easy schmeasy. Or so I thought. Sometimes the dice just don't like one.

The other thing that had me drooling, so I reallllly wanted to stay in the battle and not just vanish, was an extra +12 on trip attempts for a spider (for a +30 total, and that's not including the buffs from the party). Granted these guys were gargantuan, so had a large CMD, but it would have a fun challenge indeed. Throw in immunity to poison, and I was ready to go. Then I go and roll a 2. Followed by a 3. (The usual "meh!" emoji just doesn't cut it here). They teach us special stress-reducing techniques at the monastery for just such occasions.

No offense taken. I like the commentary banter. You'd have to try really hard for me to consider you an ass-hat :-) Cheers.
