Let me have a look... Male it would seem Giant Dwarf... yup Geek 8/Jock 4 (Am. Football)

It would seem so. Some can only be affected by them at certain intervals (1/day, 1/hour etc.), though, but that seems to mostly be the "positive bonus" powers.

So the Deceiver can simply clamp the mouth and neck of the pirates and simply watch them bleed to death.

That appears to be the case.

I think they get a save, but I'm still trying to confirm that. Also, if it doesn't kill them immediately they will awaken and struggle.

As far as the save, they are considered "spell like abilities" where they mimic spells and "supernatural abilities" where they do not.

Bleeding Touch is supernatural and should not get a save, I think. [EDIT: Now I reread domains again, p49, I think he DOES get a save.]


A couple of Klingon proverbs come to mind at this point in the game:

A running man can slit a thousand throats in one night.

Act and you shall have dinner. Think and you shall be dinner.

I really think you'd like Warhammer Fantasy RPG. There are no alignment restrictions for starters.

I think the Deceiver is doing pretty well on his own right now. Give Syd a fair fight and he'll 'leap into action!' (that will be meaningless of course unless you've read Wigu Adventures)

...must stop making obscure quotes...

Hey Fabes, have you played Warhammer RPG? The maker, Games Workshop, is based in UK.


Male Human - dash of elf Miniature painter/ Heroic

I played first edition in the very early '90s - first proper RPG I played - what an intro! Percentile dice, mutants, cults and sordid cities. It is also funny, but not in a sadistic way.

Dark Archive

Got 2nd edition... very creepy, particularly the Tome of Corruption.

EDIT: Just got lots of time to kill waiting here in the office for the meeting to start. It's 4:31 in the afternoon, April 3, 2008 here where I am.


Male Human - dash of elf Miniature painter/ Heroic

I took a quick look at 2nd Ed. 1st is much darker and weirder. All the more so because it's more down-to-earth in its imagery and writing. This was before the Warhammer world became so elaborated on in the battle game.


Male Human 17thFighter

What is up with this site! I got boot last night and just now was able to get back on! And now you got post going everywhere WTF

BTW-LOve the gnome avatar!

Philippines, actually... pretty close though.

Your only limit is reduced WIS and CHA, and those do not affect your domain powers as far as I can see. Can anyone see anything in the rules that would stop him?

What about school powers for wizards?


God I hate making NPCs without a computer program.

Hey Kruelaid, just got my Freeport D20 Companion... it has some cool rules for firearms.

Kruelaid how long does it take for you to get stuff ordered from Paizo?

Got my last PF in less than 2 weeks, got it before some Americans apparently.

Dark Archive

Kruelaid, sent you an e-mail with attachments.


Awesome, Rad.

Parlay, Fabes?

Hmmm. Never planned for this.

Think, think, as Winnie the Pooh would say.


Male Human - dash of elf Miniature painter/ Heroic

Eeek. I hate when players pull something crazy out of the hat; I really thought it was where the narration was pointing.

Cheers for running with it, in which case. Although I feel that it could end badly... them's the breaks. :D


All's cool. I'm fine with whatever you guys do. I was worried the railroading was too straight - I did it to get you guys together and give you a little common experience to kick things off. "Yah, we met in a slave hold of a pirate ship..." You know?

It's in the code.

Let me see... "Par-lay?"


Radavel wrote:

It comes from French, parler, which is pronounced par-LAY and means speak - parler is the infinitive form of the verb. The pronunciation of the infinitive is the same as the passé composé or past tense: parlé.


The guns look great, Rad. I'm going to make them very rare, though. In fact I think I may order the Freeport companion.

The only other player who will have some experience with them is Jon, because my "Asian" inspired continents always have firearms. I justify it because I like my "Kara Turs", "Celestial Empires" and "Tian Xias" to suppress magic and magic users, so I always add a little more tech.

I don't exactly know what going to happen next now that Syd wants to parlay other than a scripted event I had planned.... but then Syd might foil even that doom. We'll see what happens in the next few days of play.

How long could it possible take a pc to learn to shoot a firearm? A hour if that...

Dark Archive

Ah, but first you must find a firearm....


Tian knights do not use firearms, it is not noble.


Male Human - dash of elf Miniature painter/ Heroic

A modern one, perhaps.

Flintlocks and matchlocks are an entirely different proposition.

Dark Archive

Kruelaid, you plan on getting a copy of Art of the Duel from Sinister?


got it

Dark Archive

en garde then!


life is ephemeral...

"like tears in the rain."


Male Human - dash of elf Miniature painter/ Heroic

"'ere mate, I seen dem attack ships on fire off da shoulda uv Orion."

Syd would have made it a bit more clumping.


Male Human - dash of elf Miniature painter/ Heroic

I know Syd is pretty opposed to the rest of the group; sorry if it's cramping anyone's style. I might be in the wrong party, I feel.

Rackham's with him.

He'll learn. Kill and take it stuff.

I forgot our ex-paladin. His thought process re: pirates vs. Prostitutes made me chuckle.

Pirates vs. Whores. More divisive than Pirates vs. Ninjas.

Eesh, that's a tough one.

As we are in the mood for some poetry, try this haiku:

In blossom today then scattered
Life is so much like a delicate flower
How can one expect the fragrance to last forever?

This is just something I read in a book.


Fabes, I made a grid overlay in .psd format so you can put it over any maps you draw instead of putting you terrain and stuff over the grid. I tested it out on GIMP and it works fine so there shouldn't be any problems. If there is a problem let me know it's probably easy to fix (for example I can change the line stroke weight).

It's posted on the Silver Rose discussion thread. Disseminate it as you wish.
