First Impressions Haikus

Last year, I decided to try writing the backstories of people's items. They would request it, and I would write it. However, I didn't expect life to blindside me, and quite a few of the "Item Fanfics" fell to the wayside. Once again, sorry about that.

This year, I'm doing something that is much more manageable. I'm going to be taking the items posted in the upcoming "Critique My Item" thread and writing a short, little haiku of my first impression of the item.

I will still post full critiques over in the CMI thread, but I think this will be a fun little way to get a little bonus with the critique. It is also a way for me to at least cover everyone's item, since last year I didn't do detailed critiques on everyone who posted in the thread.

Anyway, haikus will begin once the CMI thread opens up. If I do a detailed critique on your item, I will post a link to the appropriate post in the CMI thread.

This will be fun! ^.^

Good point, I should probably go into each individual thread over in that forum and drop the haiku in when I get the chance. (I'm at work now)

I have an early day tomorrow. So Page 2 Haikus will have to wait until tomorrow afternoon/evening. My work is starting to get on me about paying too much attention to this contest. They were okay as long as I was still in the running, but now I can't be on the computer as much.

See y'all tomorrow!

Thanks for the feedback. Yes, I got a little carried away with the regrowth aspects of greenwood items. I couldn't figure out how to keep the thematic benefits without getting so complicated. Looking at the top 32+4, it seems clear to me that you're absolutely right about it lacking punch. I'll use that as a guide for next year, to be sure.

My first time reading it, it felt like there was a wide variety of things to do with the face, and they all had a "grabby" theme to them. I liked your item. For whatever reason, the "breath underwater" made me giggle each time I read it.

I'd like to take you up on that critique offer of yours, please. My item was the Needlenose Arbalest.

Thanks,

Pretty awesome stuff, Brigg!

You were suggesting you might give more nuanced reviews if we asked--if so, would you mind expounding on Chemist's Retort a little bit? I love the positivity, but it wasn't top-36 worthy, apparently, so I'm looking for whatever feedback I can get! :)

@Dieben:

Don't get me wrong. The visuals of the item are very nice. And you stick to the mosquito thing very well. The restriction of "Once per week" really put you in a bad spot in my eyes. This is because when you use it, all it would take is for the grapple to be broken, then you have to wait a whole week to be able to use it again. This would actually make it VERY difficult, if not near-impossible, to ever pull off the second ability. And the risk of putting your weapon out of coolness for a whole month was the final nail in the coffin.

You had a great theme, but the crunchy mechanics really needed to be thought through better.

@Terminalmancer

First off, I consistently upvoted your item.

Once again, I want to applaud a good catch in excluding Alchemist Bombs from this weapon's ability. I probably would have felt a little differently if you had not done this, or worse, encouraged it.

I'm curious as to whether or not you considered every possible alchemical item that could fit the bill to be put in this weapon. I mean, what's stopping me from putting a flask of silver weapon blanch and firing at my allies' weapons from 50 feet away to trivialize an enemy weak to silver? Or maybe firing five shots of a vial of flash powder? With iterative attacks, no less!

Anyway, it got my gears turning that way. You have a great item and very good design. I would just be wary, and plug up any Power-gamer-exploitable holes. The 50 gp limit for 5 shot stuff is good, but firing more expensive stuff, even at a single shot, may have some unexpected results.

Thanks! I really appreciate it. You also made some very good points... since you asked me some questions, I'll respond:

Regarding the consideration of which alchemical items I considered, I did consider a number of items but there are so many, I did admit I did not consider them all. (Whole thing came together in a couple hours, most of which was plugging loopholes. It was a busy week before RPGSS...)

I felt like the item itself provided a number of constraints on the ability:
1. It's a crossbow. Almost nobody uses crossbows as serious, optimize-worthy weapons.
2. It's an exotic crossbow.
3. It takes a full-round action to load a bolt case. Unless you're invested far enough into crossbows to be a crossbow master, if I remember correctly. I think that might speed up repeating crossbows.
4. It costs 12,700 gp... that's a pretty hefty investment for something that helps you throw alchemical items further.

Given the type of weapon, the price of the weapon, and the problem of crossbows being so thoroughly suboptimal that nobody powergames them, I felt like anyone who was willing to spend 12,000 gp on a heavy repeating crossbow could probably stand to get some utility out of it. Making a full attack with a vial of flash powder wasn't exactly what I had in mind, but it was the kind of awesome thing I wanted to enable. I'm not 100% sure that 50gp was the correct limit, but there is an essentially infinite variety of possible alchemical items out there and I would be surprised if there wasn't something that was maybe a little more powerful than I thought. But still... it's 12k, it's an exotic crossbow that doesn't benefit from rapid reload.

Now, don't get me wrong, I didn't want to enable absolute craziness. But silver weapon blanch is a mere 5 gp, flash powder is expensive but DC 13... these are the kinds of items that an experienced adventurer could be taking advantage of anyway, assuming that you're carrying the item in the first place. And in most cases you're giving up a turn in favor of loading the blanch or whatever into the crossbow. In a lot of cases, you could get a similar effect simply by taking Quick Draw as a two-weapon fighter and loading up a bandoleer with alchemical splash weapons.

Anyway, thank you! I really appreciate the feedback, and it's something I'll keep in mind for my next item(s).

What I really appreciated about your item is that you were specific about everything you NEEDED to be specific about: What can reverse the petrification, creatures that don't breathe are immune, wind can blow it away, even the hardness, hit points and escape DC.

Some may see it as annoying, but by listing all that stuff there, you effectively prevent players and GMs from having to leaf through other books to figure it all that stuff out; especially since lassos are not commonly used. I like it!

Now, the effect, I would probably scale it back to maybe 1d3. But that's just me. having it done only once per day was a wise choice!

One final tiny nitpick: The phrase "green petrification gas" would have sounded better as "noxious green gas" or something along those lines. Reason: The paragraphs after it tells us that the gas can petrify the target. If a villain were describing this while using it, that little change in the text becomes the difference between him saying:

"I will petrify you with my petrification gas!"

and

"Hold still, breathe it in, and turn to stone!"

Still, loved it, and voted it quite consistently.

yeah 1d3 would have distanced itself further from calcific touch, and the writing tips are quite welcome as well. Thanks for your thoughts (will get a critique of yours after I finish the top 32+4).

Weapon blanches have to be heated and take 1 minute a full round to apply to a weapon, so I don't think shooting them at your allies' weapons would be an issue.

Also I consistently upvoted this item as well. Well done.
