Ruin the Quick's page

I dont think they did mix up the terms, i think it kept things clear by NOT saying they CAST the prepared powers, they are saying they still manifest the powers like psionics. In fact the 8th level power allows them to ADD S,V to the power, tells me that they ALSO DONT have those when being used, unlike SPELLS that do. So you saying that the powers are silent, stilled spells in the same spell slots then? That they can start to take same powers that copy spells and just fill them in and use them like that?

Its going to be up to the DM to make a ruling in the end, but RAW it looks clear cut until a dev comes on and says "This is what we meant"

O course he has to prepared it as a spell, he is a mage, but when it is used that is where the definition should if its a spell or power.
Does he wave his hands around and speak? No 1 check vs power, can he augment the power to make it more powerful like a power Yes check vs power. Does he need material compounds NO?

If it looks like a dog but swims, quacks, and flies like a duck is it a dog or a duck? Maybe its just a really ugly duck :)

while it does say:

These powers can then be prepared as spells, taking up a spell slot for that power‘s level and can be manifested by spending the spell slot.

All through the text though say manifest not cast

Alternately, the psychic mage can expend a higher level unprepared spell slot to manifest a power he has prepared and treated the power as if the number of power points needed to manifest that higher level spell had been spent on the power.

I look at it as you write down the power in your book and prepare it in your mind using your training as a wizard, then you manifest the psionic power like psionics does using PP or converting your energies into psionic PP from the psy mage training.

great......

looks like i dont have anyone at the levels your runing, Sark MAY be 3rd but cant say for sure, unless Maaarv 4th level PC drops down to lower for The Frostfur Captives [Levels 1-5] not in any of the tiers.

i assumed gameplay was for just that ;)

Rah did you want to gather our group and run something for us?

I am also running a game for gamesday on mythweaver for 3rd level PCs if anyone wanted to join that.

Hey Rah thought i check in and see what games you will be running for next Gamesday.

thats too bad as running a game for 3rd level PCs

hey guys i am going to run a game on myth weaver if any of you wanted to join it check out this area and just post interest(when i get the thread up later today)
http://www.myth-weavers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=19749

In march sometime, i think i will give a hand and run something next game day on myth weaver

BTW i am confused about the 1st reward, looking at the other warfinders none could be bought for the std 2 PP since the costs are over 750, so how do you add enhancements to the wayfinder?

got mine, we missed a few items :(

your all a bunch of jobless bums :P

1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18

Ruin will see if he can find the current holy book of this god and see what the other 12 passages could have read if possible, maybe asking the Master of Scrolls.

did we miss the faction mission?

"will the good lady allow us to use some of her equipment if we return into the caves? The wands would be most useful." Ruin asks

Ruin nods "yes there could be more mysteries to uncover in the other passages."

Ruin points out that there is a healing stick in the halfling bag.

Ruin makes his way towards the group, "Well that could have gone alot worst, everyone ok?" He hands the halfling pack back to her and says "You forgot this, we used very little from it."

na he is playing it safe, one hit from that axe and he is a dead monk so

Ruin is unsure what he can do, he moves closer and readies to throw his bag if he can get a clear shot. He does add his 2nd style to his first one combining them in some strange snake/crane combo movement.

i am a monk ,what choices do i have!

Ruin moves around trying to a place where he can throw the bag at the beast, but does not want to get too close. Ruin will wait until the halfing is out of the way to throw the bag, his idea to get the beast to charge at him into the water foiled by the party all coming across.

i really dont want to get closer than i am but i got -4 to attack with a -4 for melee missile fire so not really feeling trying to throw it just yet.

1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21

Ruin gets off the log so others can come across, and takes out a tanglefoot bag.

"I got an idea to try to get the beast into the river, either get across the log fast or let me try to get it to charge at me!" Ruin shouts at the others across the log.

leonides you cant run through diff terrain and can only run in a straight line i think.

Ruin continues to run for the log, slowing down to try to cross the wet wood. It seems he did not slow down enough as his feet are taken out from under him he crashes face first into the log with a loud thud.

arco: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9
Ref: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17

i am afraid to say i wont be much use with no missile attacks, only thrown weapons and to use them i got to get far too close for my likely.

Ruin has an idea to help and rushes off towards the log across the water.

Ruin steps up where Faerin dies on the ground and flicks(Swift) his hand where a Kama appears in his hand. He swings it down to cut through the blob.

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

can anyone use the wand of burning hands ? i can throw the fire but you two will take damage

ok i will ready an action to throw it if the blob comes down the hall at us

Ruin uses one of the new items from the pack, throwing the alchemist’s fire at the blob.

throw: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

As he races through, "nothing just some undead that needed to be put to rest, will be back in a moment."

Ruin sticks to his plan and ducks out as the group moves forward, running all the way back and hopping over the pit he looks around for the pack and any sign of the Halfling or the beast.

Ruin seeing no one has the backpack of the halfing, and reading the note decides to make his way back to the entrance to pick it up and return. Tells you all to go on and he will catch up.

"We must find the source of this evil plan and laid it to rest."

you know what we forgot to do, pick up the pack from the halfling, it must have lots of supplies we could have used lol.

flurry: 2d20 ⇒ (19, 13) = 32+2 each
dmg: 2d6 ⇒ (3, 1) = 4+3 each

Releasing a flurry of attacks, Ruin punches foe 1 then if it falls, moves to foe 4. His fists hit hard bones but he seems undated by that fact.

Ruin goes from silent to deadly in a flash,he drops into his snake stance(swift), then move forward to punch one of the undead creatures in the ribs before they could act.

AC 13 ATM
charge: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

Ruin will charge in surprise round, Since he was in front should be able to get that off before Selkin moves in way.

once they move into to attack as a immediate action will make a sense motive check and use that instead for my AC.

sense motive: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (17) + 10 = 27

so our mission was to find out what the gillman are doing, i guess we have done that yea?

Ruin nods then quietly makes his way down the tunnel with Daijiro behind him.

[occ=ooc]take 10 stealth for 20[/ooc]

While some of the group plays in the water, Ruin asks "Anyone want to check out this smelly tunnel with me?"

Ruin watched with amusement at the group's acts. Once the magic washes over them he tells them what he found.

Ruin will move down each of the hallways using his sunrod for light to see what is down each path. he will only go 30 feet down each and return.

"use a cloak to guide them"

"Can you tell us the ones you know of please?" Ruin still has his paper out ready to write it down.

Ruin makes notes of the gillman's story and what has transpired up until now on this quest. Ruin will walk around the chamber to see if he can find any other exits not noticed before.

Then he asks "Whats east and west of here?"

perc: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15

Ruin frowns as the group just gives up why they are here, ruining his bluff. With no armour or weapons he feels he is the most non threatening of the group. He waits for the Gillman to reply to either the question about the city or why they are here. When he says he is alone Ruin is not sure he believes him.

sense: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (10) + 10 = 20

i think ruin has the cloak no? if he does, he will bring it out to show the gillman.

"Well we wanted to see what they are doing, best way is to just ask, guys cover me incase things get dangerous" Unless someone stops him Ruin makes his way towards the gillman saying in common "Hello there, you must be our guide, sorry for not waiting for you at the entrance , we are here to see your leader, he should be expecting us."

bluff: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17

While the group looks over the drawing, Ruin swaps his shiny red cloak inside out to make it a dark brown then moves forward down the far tunnel keeping to the shadows and looking for recent tracks

take 10 on stealth(20), take 10 on tracking(17)

Ruin watches the crazy dwarf jump across then hops over with the ease of a skilled acrobat after him, handing one end of his rope to one of the people before hand. Ruin ever aware of thing around him silently looks at the new writings on the wall.

take 10 for 16 jump

perc: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26

so do we need to go down the pit or can we continue on?

Ruin takes out his grapple hook, ties it to his rope and throw it to grab the cloak out of the water.
