Stratus sighed with some relief. He invited the others who had been near him during the worst of it to sit at a table and pulled up a chair. It was a large oak thing, but it looked much too small for him.

To be fair, I did suspect that you might be right from the beginning, but I wanted to try it!

Halving... Force damage? I don't think there's any subclasses that do that. Haw! Both, I suppose, but I don't mind an OOC thread being chaotic. It's part of its nature!

Yeah, sure. I'll live with it until you feel like handing something out!

Looks like by RAW (not that I care much for RAW, but it serves as a baseline) it will take 5gp, 4 hours, and finding someone proficient with Painter's Tools. Not quite as easy as you suggest!

I figured that you did! Yeah. I mean, I try to respect people's feelings, generally, but I don't - quite - understand why anyone is too put out by that sort of thing (barring some sort of internalized trauma). I guess what I'm saying is, while I think that your hypothetical GM ought to show...

Hey @TaranTheWanderer , I was levelling up Stratus and two questions occurred to me: 1) Is he going to be able to find a new shield? Because it might influence my choice of Fighting Style. 2) Ditto for Holy Symbol. It occurs to me that he can't cast spells with an M component now. You...

I figured you knew how it worked, I just think that you underplayed the very important part. You can gain a lot of HP with it, sure, but you won't be doing much else. I've mostly seen it used between combats, or when a PC is in very dire straits. It's good (in that you can start every combat...

I think @Umbran had it right, but reversed it to make a point. The more important point, IMO, is that if it FEELS like WINNING, then you've won. And that's the only way you win, in RPGs. The good news is, it's easy to create that feeing!

It's not 12 THP per round. It's 12 THP whenever you use your Action to get 12 THP.

Team Ambush Saphirion dove out of a tree and flew at the orc mercenary's head, all wings, claws, and hisses. The orc stepped back, waving his arms at the flying cat, and Lorent, who had jogged down toward where the road switched back toward the north, downhill. He sent a bolt of eldritch energy...

No worries. I think we're going at a pretty good pace. Though I'm starting to think that @Kobold Stew might have been right regarding splitting the threads. I like having everything in one place, but it feels "messy" to have two separate groups talking over one another. IDK. We'll see...

I wouldn't say that the passengers would come along, so I wouldn't teleport a kayak, but I don't see why you couldn't use it to move rocks (H2 or H3) they are both large size. While I characterized H3 as "bigger" than H2, what I meant was H2 is like a pile of sharp rocks, where H3 is more like a...

But then Stratus overheard a citizen speaking in awe about a person left outside who had yet to fall from the overwhelming horde. Had they missed someone? Stratus felt ashamed that he'd been so distracted by the chaos. He looked for a ladder or stairs where he could climb up on the gatehouse. A...

Having nearly been taken down, Stratus was relieved to hear the healing word of Corellon. Though he was very devoted to the tenants of the religion of his upbringing, the Sky-Father, he was often unfamiliar with the Gods of the smaller folk. He was glad to know nothing of Dark Gods. He helped...

Perfect! I had placed it like that when I first built the map, but I decided that I wanted spots where you could safely "breathe". It's true that the whole river is "swift current", but I guess there are eddies that are worse. There's a few "behind the screen" things that you aren't aware of...

Team Ambush Terrin's javelin gained so much momentum as it hurled down from on high that it seriously injured the cultist as the scoundrel hurried from the wagon to the cover of the trees. The second javelin buried itself among the tree's roots as the cultist attempted to return fire. He and...

@Tonguez - I'm not sure I understand the specifics of your post. Did you dash? (That would require 2 successful checks, one for your "safe" movement, and one for your Dash Action.). For Shade-9 to get to S-13, he'd be moving 55 feet! In case there's confusion, I'll give you some advice, so it's...

It's based on the same mechanic as skills, though - an ability score and proficiency bonus. I mean, I see why they're generally trying to avoid both the cheese of stacked builds and the slow-at-the-table of rolling two checks for one activity. IDK if I think that they found the best approach...
