Who knows? (Who knows what these characters know about each other? How did Cyme know that Quillathe was a whip expert and to take away her whip?)

Standoff I'm glad to hear that feat's in the book - that's a cool ability. His eyes darting toward where the elf is headed, Cyme quickly cartwheels back above the fallen rapier (in the same square as he was before), dodging low under Quillathe's back-up whip. "Uh-uh-uh!" he taunts, wagging a...

Rules, rules, rules Thanks - I didn't notice the whip hardness info in the original post. And I think your house rule about a bludgeoning weapon not being able to sunder a whip is entirely reasonable. After all, if we're trying to promote a Whips book, it wouldn't do to destroy all the whips...

Theoretical Question Theoretically, if I wanted to destroy the frost whip, what hardness and hp would you give it? I assume I wouldn't have to make an attack roll if I'm holding it myself. I couldn't find any info on whip sundering in the PH, other than that leather has hardness 2 and 5 hp/inch...

Cyme managed to keep the whip, but now loses the rapier (12 + 15 = 27). With a huff of frustration, he follows Quillathe towards the tree, Tumbling to avoid an attack of opportunity (11 + 22 = 33), and belts the elf woman (19 + 16 = 35) for 11 points of damage (2 + 6 + 3 = 11). Quillathe: 39 hp...

Whoops! Sorry for the confusion. Because of the time difference, almost 10 hours is passing between each of our turns, and I got a little over eager. Cyme barely manages to keep hold of the frost whip, rolling a total of 26 (11 + 15). Then he Tumbles after his opponent, rolling 24 to avoid an...

No-Brainer Oh, and Cyme declares Quillathe as his Dodge target (duh!), bringing his AC to 28.

I would've thought the opposite, actually, but in light of the roll results in this particular case, I guess it doesn't matter.

How Cyme Gets His Kicks "Did your master teach you how to fight without your toys?" taunts Cyme. Holding Quillathe's whip in one hand and rapier in the other, he launches two roundhouse kicks, spinning in a whirl of his cloak. The first goes wide as the elf nimbly ducks under it, (10 + 16 =...

Retry Reeling from being lacerated by the bladed whip, Cyme steels himself and tries to snatch it from his opponent's grasp again, rolling a 29 this time (9 + 16 + 4). With his free hand (and second attack), he attempts to grab the rapier, rolling 31 (16 + 11 +4).

Game Time Through Sunday I'll probably only have the chance to post every four hours or so, but come Monday morning, I'll be able to post constantly every day from 1100-1800 (Moscow time).

Disarm Attempt The honor system is fine with me. The editing I did in my previous post was changing the tense to match Quillathe's. "Taking advantage of his opponent's pause, Cyme runs at her with blinding speed (60 ft. per round) and makes a move for her whip, trying to wrench it from her...

Cyme's Initiative Cyme will start closer to the door, and rolls a 10 for initiative, for a total of 17 (the bonus listed above should be +7, not +4, from his Dex bonus). "Eyeing his opponent's lethal-looking whip apprehensively, Cyme's blood starts racing."

Meet Cyme Cyme: CR 10; Male Human Mnk10; Medium humanoid; HD 10d8+20; hp 68; Init +7; Spd 60 ft.; AC 27, touch 25, flat-footed 14; Base Atk +7; Grp +13; Atk +16 melee (2d6+3/x2, unarmed); Full Atk +16/+11 melee (2d6+3/x2, unarmed); SA flurry of blows, ki strike (magic, lawful); SQ human...

10th Level? By 10th level, do you mean ECL 10, CR 10, or a core race with 10 character levels?

Definitely Interested Please count me in. I'll post my character shortly.

Frank Mentzer's take According to Frank Mentzer's article "Ay pronunseeAYshun gyd" in DRAGON 93, it's pronounced both ways. As far as I know, this is the most "official" word on the subject that's been published.

Umber Check out Andy Collins's Umber Setting at http://andycollins.net. I'd love to be in his gaming group.

Hear, hear Ditto for me. I liked 1E and 2E, but always felt so limited by them. The flexibility of 3E to create practically any fantasy character imaginable got me back into the game after 8 years.
