Luhal swings again, but this time with the flat of the blade, still hoping to take a prisoner. http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=861417 give me 5 subdual damage.

Vampire is a general term for anyone who drinks fresh human blood and receives a mystic benefit thereby. Keeps the players on their toes. Heck, once had a player seriously consider having his character initiated into a vampiric cult for the potential benefits. -Albert

I've been thinking about how I'd want to change the magic system. Here's an idea I'm offering for feedback: Magic-users have four broad scopes of magic that they can use. Trivial: Magic of trivial scope can generally be used whenever and wherever the magic-user wishes. Particularly potent...

*shrug* I'll just chalk that up to a place where the system doesn't do the best job of emulating reality, then. I'm not asking for a retcon, by the way, but this is more what I wanted to do: Luhal moves out, and while the orc is surprised, puts his scimitar in position to threaten a deadly...

Well, the entire point of holding a sword at his throat was to threaten with a presumably deadly attack if he doesn't comply. Since the orc attacked, can I get in a quick attack first? I think I remember that I automatically critical if my attack hits at all, but I can't find that rule on the...

7, or 6 once you factor in Charisma. Drat, apparently. -Albert

Yeah, but since he has fiendish enemies, it would make sense to come up with a way to dispose of them that doesn't violate his agreement. -Albert

I admit to some surprise that Mostin doesn't have some method of chastizing demons and devils. One allowed by his understanding with the Host, I mean. If Iua - or her sword - isn't a major arcane connection to Surab, I'd be pretty surprised. Design and cast an anti-evil spell through that. Of...

Would be nice to know how the attacks played out. Also, does my orc seem to speak Goblin? -Albert

I am, of course, still in. If anyone wants to try a different system, I'm checking interest for a modded low-power Exalted game. -Albert

I'm looking for 5-7 players to play a low-ish level game of Exalted. For the next few days, I'm just checking the interest level - if enough people respond, I'll start giving out the pertinent details. Stuff You Should Be Aware Of: -This is _not_ "Rebelling Against the Evil Queen". Umergi, The...

Luhal rushes out with Manclaw at the ready. Instead of swinging to kill, he holds his scimitar at the orc's throat, hoping to take a prisoner. "Hold still!" he snarls in Goblin. -Albert

Luhal has seemed even more withdrawn the previous evening and that morning. In the morning he chants briefly, restoring the Carper to his full vigor. When they begin moving, he enchants his staff once more. He does insist on being one of the litter-carriers for Iando. Spells for the new day...

I think it's actual physical damage, since the spell is Instant and can't be dispelled. Of course, DnD magic is occasionally dysfunctional. -Albert

Pretty sure brain damage is what Feeblemind is supposed to inflict, and the only spell in the core books capable of mending that is Heal. (Well, and miracle and wish and limited wish.) -Albert

At 5th level that sounds, if anything weak. Consider that a 3rd level Fireball didn't cap at 10d6 back in 1E. -Albert

In the Fighter varient I'm tinkering with, Fighters have 1) The equivalent of d12 hp (d4-d8 Scratch, d4-d8 Evade, and the best progression in Heart Points and Dying Points) 2) A base of 2-4 Physical Skill Points, 0-2 Study Skill Points, and 1-2 Awareness Points per level (5 + Int bonus per...

And Albert once again abuses Wildshape. Heavens Above I love that power. -Albert

Swearing sulphurously, Luhal jumps down once more, changing form, as he dives, into a largish shark. Scenting fresh blood, he follows the tide of crimson until he finds the battered body of their elven friend. Gripping the suddenly frail-seeming body as gently as possible, he makes his way...

*shrugs* I'm enjoying myself, although I hope I'm not hogging scene time too much. Hmmm . . . hey, Cerubus666, it's been about a few weeks since you posted. Are you still interested in playing? -Albert
