I am not from around here, you are right my dear. I am from an area of the river kingdoms called Daggermark. He pauses with an odd look on his face

Pay no attention to any stats in my aliases I use for this, I try to reuse them where I can. Ryst is not a Cheliax Inquisitor.

Cyrdak gently accepts Idril's hand and begins to walk in the town. I have been all over Varisa and I must say that was one of the best examples of traditional dance I have seen. I had not expected to meet someone so talented today, what a fine festival it will be. Is there anything you'd like to see before the show starts? He asks her with a politeness and grace that is surprising for a man.

As Little Chammady starts to dance she notices a man eyeing her from across the dance floor. Confidently, perhaps aided by the beverage at his table, he advances towards her and bows. May I have this dance He says in a foreign accent

Alias created...mostly anyways.

Uhmmm...starting health/wealth and stuff?

Not 100% on health, but I know Dunebugg said max starting wealth to a previous question about it.

Yes, this is basically what hand-eye coordination is.

Although, I think there is a difference between touching your nose and, for example, running down a set of stairs (or worst, running down an uneven or irregular set of stairs). The former is such an easy task that you can succeed despite terrible penalties (speaking in RPG terms).

Driving is more difficult than touching your nose, but you can still rely on the fact that the wheel, the pedal and the shift stick will always be in the same position, regardless of conditions of the road. If it wasn't for the road itself, you could easily drive without looking at the control.

When fighting or moving through difficult terrain, your sight becomes much more in demand, to the point that it become terribly difficult should you be blindfolded. But even if you could see what's in front of you, I remain convince that part of your own body awareness comes from own sight (of yourself). Even if we're talking about a split second via your peripheral vision, you need to know where your foot is in order to move it if your brains interpret that it might be in danger, and part of that knowledge comes from sight. Remove that awareness through sight and you would be handicapped. Not crippled to the point of not knowing where your foot is, but you'd be "taking a penalty".

This is more obvious when you try shooting with a handgun without looking at your weapon. The handgun is simply an extension of your arm and yet, your brain needs awareness of the position of both your handgun and the position of the target to aim, and much of that awareness is conveyed through sight. I think it would be similar with a sword or a bow.

I also agree that this level of detailed realism has no place in a RPG like Pathfinder however, and I can easily live with the fact that you cannot see yourself when invisible, and that there is no...

Unle the stairs are invisible running down them is not difficult, do you look at your feet when you run? Hey if you want to penalize your characters invispower go ahead. I don't have to play with yall.

Closing your eyes is equivalent to being blinded; that condition already exists with its own set of penalties.

The question was could you see yourself. If you can not see something you are essentially blinded. My point is even if you could not see your body parts, you would be aware of where they were and what they were doing.

Acording to Herolab, Sensei is the only one that stacks with Qinggong.
