Well. That was a third of my HPs. ACK. Rashes. Lleneth finds himself suppressing an incredible urge to scratch his arm, but with Gorogon on the bridge there isn't exactly much room to avoid a battle. He starts telling a story about a young man whose life flipped over from a sudden relocation to a small Brevoy town. Inspire Courage, first round for the day.

So I've been slow of late because I was being hung up about posting here while working on a thing for which I have managed to f'k up colossally and lose all my data for, causing me to have to recheck over something like 80 pages of boards at this point. Then I decided that was stupid and posted. Shouldn't happen again.

Lleneth would be moving to O4 on his next turn, or as near to it as he could get, assuming he can manage to break free.. Escape Artist1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20 Which he can. On his next turn he'll be trying to trip the stupid goblin guy. Through cover. This might be crap. Luckily it's a reach weapon. Trip with the Whip1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12

Including beast totem, it counterbalances to -6 AC. That's still really problematic considering you're relying on just armor (Because shields are for pansies and TWF Fighters)

As for the down-low I do not really talk about guides much. Armored Hulk isn't bad for having a high armor class. The problem is, if you're raging and using Come and Get Me, that's a -6 to your AC already. If you have Reckless Abandon on top of that (And Reckless Abandon is awesome so you probably want it), that's another -4 at 12th, when CAGM kicks in. That makes -10 AC... I can't make AC relevant at that point, and the AC bonus is the big upside of Armored Hulk.

On an unrelated note... Here is a prototype for my guide. It does not have feats, rage powers, or equipment done yet. I would appreciate feedback, but I would also appreciate keeping this on the down-low for the moment. Because I am keeping it on the down-low.

Ah, dear. The fighter was down, and so Lleneth had to help in direct combat. He was never the best at this sort of thing. Still... He tried, lashing his whip to try and trip the wounded dog before him. Attack defensively at a -4, tripping the wounded dog right next to me.1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22 AC is 19 this turn.

On his turn, Lleneth will be stepping next to Gorgoron while pulling out his own wand. Then he will be zapping Ansruath with it. Step to K8, and procure a second cure light wounds! Sadly, I lose my buckler for the turn because I'm still holding a whip. Ahh well. Cure Light Wounds1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Total Bardic Rounds used: 4. 7 remain. With naught but one goblin left, Lleneth opted to stop his rousing tale of daring just before it got to the good part. Not wanting to let any of the goblins escape, he lashes his whip once more at the only goblin still standing, aiming to trip it up and prevent its escape. Trip to Goblin A:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13 "Beautiful hit there, Alyoma. Thanks a million."

As the goblin stands up, Lleneth attempts to get in a dig with his dagger as well. AoO: (Because he's using the dagger in his buckler hand, I lose the bonus to AC.)1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11 Damage1d4 ⇒ 4 Bardic Performance: 4th round As he continues to talk about golems and the men who stumbled into them, he then gives his whip another go, aiming to trip up the only goblin he could see still threatening Anrusath. Trip on Goblin D:1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27 As the earth shook-would someone be a dear and get the one running away, please?: "Ahem... anyways. As the earth shook before the might of the awkakening golem, the digger shook with fright. He took drill in hand, and immediately thrust it at the monster. It broke on the indestructible hide of the creature, and the digger thought he would surely be killed. However, the golem did not attack once it fully awakened. Instead, it opened. It revealed within what appeared to be a myriad system of levers and buttons, and a seat with room enough for a single person. The digger and the fire-eyed man looked at each other, and after a moment's pause spoke in unison. 'Race you for it.'"

Bardic Performance: 3rd round Tripping worked so well last time, that Lleneth tries it once more, aiming for the goblin just behind. Trip again, this time on goblin F:1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27 One day, while digging, the man happened upon a marvelous sight...: "He was out digging on that day much as any other, with his mentor and only friend alongside him, a man with eyes of fire and the strength of a bear that had the strength of ten gorillas. The digger's drill hit something which was not a normal piece of earth. Dig as he might, it would not give way. And so with the help of the fire-eyed man, the digger began to excavate... and found himself staring at a golem of pure adamantine, one several times larger than any he had seen before. The digger laid a hand on the leg of the beast. As he did, the world itself seemed to quake in fear of an awakening power. There awakened was a fierce octarine glow in the golem's eye, and the digger prepared himself for battle against a newly awakened power, one he knew would be unstoppable."

I generally found that old thing debate good for some fun. Then I accidentally won it typing in all-caps with horrible grammar. For the martial character. I'm still not sure how the flying heck that happened, but I'll take it. New subject seems to be how things 'ain't proper fantasy' and all that stuff. I'm staying out of this one. I invented one meme by accident already, I don't even want to think about this one.

Everyone, make sure to remember your +1 to hit and damage rolls! Lleneth aims to trip up the goblin in front of him using his whip, without even forgetting to continue his story. In the meanwhile, he draws his dagger into his other hand, in case the goblin managed to stand back up. Improved Trip using a whip1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18 2nd round of Inspire Courage... also using my move action to draw the dagger into my other hand for any AoO's that may be afoot. Also note that any attacks with the dagger will be at a -1 penalty, and will drop my buckler from my AC. Hopefully shouldn't be an issue. It was into a world like this that he was born...: "He was a young man who worked tirelessly, digging new tunnels for the people who lived beneath the earth. To do this, he used a magic whirling weapon to dig through the earth, a long, grooved lance known as a 'drill.' In this way he lived his life, day in and day out. He, like all men, dreamed of one day seeing the sky."

Initiative 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11 When his turn comes up, Lleneth will start talking. Inspire Courage as my standard. +1s for everyone! This reminds me of a story...: "Long ago, before man lived in the sun as we do now, he was forced to live underground in a world of caverns with no exit. Light was at a premium in this primordial time, you see, and mankind fought to keep this precious resource from the evil creatures of the dark. Legend told man of something aboveground called the sky, and man yearned for this blue, light filled expanse even as they fought for their life against the horrible denizens of the darkness."

I guess if Alyoma's taking care of the cleric, I should do something about a thiefy skillmonkey character. Hrm... I will have to think about this. I could make an archaeologist or a rogue, though Rogues have never meshed well with me (I can do them, but they end up weird). ...I'll throw some builds off a wall at myself today and see what I can come up with.
Male Human Bard 3
Well, nobody else in my usual group is really capable of the accounting needed to play a full caster, so I usually end up doing it, or we end up going without. Let's just say part of the reason AM is so very good at hitting them right where it hurts is because I know exactly what makes arcane casters tick.

...ooh. Still neat. :D Hrm. Honestly, I could try making a divine caster or a full-on arcane caster for you if you'd like. What's the character creation rules? Ugh. Playing a casty. *shudder*

I thought I'd check here to see if Alyoma had changed her mind about the game, or to see of Lleneth would be interested? If Alyoma isn't interested, I guess I can give it a shot. TBH I've never quite been able to wrap my head around divine casters, but I'll be happy to give it a shot for you. What's the current party makeup? I'm showing you have an inquisitor but I'm guessing he's one of the ones who vanished.
Male Human Bard 3
Awesome. Go out after breakfast, kill some goblins, be back in time for dinner. I can go for that. Lleneth will be helping Dehrisan find the second in command for the watch, before retiring back to the inn, giving the patrons a couple quick stories and poems, and heading to his room for the night to check his gear out and make sure he's ready for tomorrow.
