Piratecat's up-to-date story hour (updated on 8/10, come game with PCat at GenCon!)

Actually reincarnate could be a decent way of neutralising a cloudgiant

Im not sure how a cloudgiant would react, reincarnated as lets say a human, or a kobold or....

Reincarnation is optional for the soul being affected (just like resurrection).

I can't find it in the SRD, but IIRC, the subject knows the name and deity of the person trying to raise them. I distinctly recall reading that somewhere.

And this is why I miss playing Nolin. This would be meat and potatoes to Nol. Politics and blackmail, influence and extortion, all done with a smile and a wave of his [perfumed foppery] hand.

Aren't there all sorts of permanent domination effects in the XPH?

Anyhow, just this once, my vote is for the "nuclear proliferation" route. They go true resurrection, we go trap the soul.

What's the worst that can happen? (Superman II notwithstanding...)

 

[Maldur]

ok, there goes that plan.

I just found it funny, I can see adventurers hurrying a reincarnation so they get the bbeg in their clutches as an halfling so the "enemy "does not reincarnate them, and so they have a prisoner that is easily "handled"

Wouldn't turning them into undead solve the problem?

I'm a big fan of the trap the soul option. Can't raise 'em if they're not dead...

Now THERE's a plan Mara and Malachite would get behind...






...and cut to little bits.

 

[Sejs]

If it wern't for those pesky paladins and their undead hating ways, I'd say you could always just raise him as a big ol' zombie and stick him somewhere safe.


Like, say, encased in a block of stone somewhere on a good aligned outer plane.


Possibly under a rhino tree.





Edit: *looks up* Of course, I could always suggest it an hour after it had already been suggested by someone else. That'd work too.

 

[WizarDru]

...and cut to little bits.

Exactly. Problem solved.

 

[Henry]

Exactly. Problem solved.

D'OH! @^#$%!

Forgot about Malachite's ability! Otherwise, killing the undead would mean it could be raised again. But not with Malachite's Tanned Finger on the Kill Switch.

Ok, been a long time since I last visited here, and I see P-kitty isn't any more caught up than usual

I remember that someone was compiling the P-kitty thread into downloadable files. Is this still happening? Would anyone happen to have the page number, or a link, to the links to the files?

Wasn't there a sticky post here about archived story hours, whatever happened to that?
