Announced (and heading your way Gen Con 2015)!

I ran this 5 times at GenCon. I had a blast. It was awesome. It usually ran 3.75-4 hours. It takes a lot of prep, but is so much fun for everyone. Great scenario.

Thanks for the responses. I like the variation with Role Cards too, since that really doubles the number of character options you end up with. I have incorporated a lot of what you mention. There was an obvious line drawn between Seoni and her, since the Dragon Initiate Role Card was already out there. I have adjusted the heal ability as you suggested and made the auto-recharge a power feat. I traded cards between spell and Ally, but that also came from Seoni. I adjusted the acquire magic and damage reduction.

Finally, for the crusader card, I removed the Armor proficiency (she was an Archmage so never wore armor) and added another power up to the heal.
You may reveal a spell to choose a character at your location. Shuffle 1d4 (□+1) (□+2) random cards from her discard pile into her deck, then discard (□ recharge) (□ shuffle into your deck) the spell you revealed.
I also added the □ Add 3 to your combat checks when using a weapon you mentioned and modified the blessing ability. □ When you play Blessing of Shelyn, or you play any blessing on any check to acquire an ally, you may recharge it instead of discarding it.

Thanks for the insight. As all of us do, I tried to walk the line between being feasible and thematic and not over-powered. I will post the card my friend made as well to get input on it.


Hello all;
I am making a character I played through the tabletop version. She was a rather ditzy cross-blooded Brass Dragon Draconic/Celestial Sorceress. In the early levels she used her Heavenly Fire special ability from Celestial to heal party members, so I have tried to emulate that ability.

She worshiped Arshea (Empyreal Lord of Freedom, Physical Beauty and Sexuality). During a portion of her career, she multi-classed into Paladin. You are all welcome to read the Celestial Obedience of Arshea to get an idea of how I played her with this.

Wrath was rather challenging with me not really being up-to-snuff with arcane casting, so she re-trained out of Paladin. My role cards below follow along both possible paths for her.

Here is what I have.

Spoiler:

Note that ...’s greataxe has the vicious property on it, but that his damage reduction prevents any of the return damage the +2 vicious greataxe would deal back to him.

I am trying to clean up the question and make it as direct as possible.

Does the DR of an Invulnerable Rager prevent the damage caused when using a vicious weapon?

Even in this thread there is discussion around it and I have not seen a developer respond regarding this, yet.

Thanks,
Bob

Has their ever been an official statement about how this combination works? Vicious is a +1 weapon enhancement and it seems people are all over the map as to whether the damage (to the creature struck and the wielder) is energy damage or the same type as the weapon. It seems people run the though that either the damage done always goes through despite any dr on the monster's side or the the wielder's dr allows him to get a free extra 2d6 damage. I am perfectly comfortable with the damage to the creature being an extension of weapon damage and the dame to the wielder being something that bypasses dr because it is almost the charging force behind why the weapon does what it does. You don't pay it don't work kinda thing. I would really love something official in an FAQ.

Thanks,

Stephen unfortunately isn't going to make it, since his Ninja is currently stuck in a module, so we have room for up to three more people. As it stands the game will still happen, I'll just be running a pregen if no one else signs up.

Current Roster:
1. Jeremy Chapman - Bard (Archaeologist) 3
2. Kim Boyer - Magus (Kensai) 3
3. Kevin Screen - Sorcerer 4
4. Bob Lambrisky (Namerius Magus 6)

Hoe are you rolling on here? Also, shadowyfox, it looks like yours are adding all 4 dice and subtracting 1, not 1 die.


I would be very interested as well.
