Question! Is it possible to do both? Make a few clones, keep them on ice and then become a Lich?

Poster decides do to some soul searching with regards to topics being discussed. Actual healthy change a possibility - at least, as much as we can all gain from a little soul searching*. Attacks keep on coming. Classy! And to clarify for those chomping at the bit - noooooobody can really know...

Clones are sciencey. SCIENCE!1 Lich's, being undead, are more METAL!1 It's a matter of style..

Yeah, I like it - well put!

You keep telling me what I'm for. Again, I'll try to clarify: The purpose of my initial response and my further responses having nothing to do with keep folks quiet, silencing those standing together and the like. Stand up to attackers - awesome. If you re-read what I wrote, I hope you can...

Oh aye, community support I can get behind! And no one should feel they have to do.. well, anything really, perhaps ideally. Strong statements can have their place and do a lot of good. And as I've repeatedly said, strong statements can also undermine the very intent behind the statements. I...

Sure it totally on them. And we can choose to let them get on with it in the hopes they actually, ya know.. do something about it or we can work with them to help them change for the better. Of course, there's also the option of: Not bothering to do anything about it. Which is fine. I just wish...

o-o What made you believe I need coddling? I give coddling professionally. Often big strong people! :) And from my limited experience I like to perhaps kid myself into thinking I know what leads to healthy change and what doesn't. Honestly, it's not that hard (and yet sometimes, can seem...

See my clarification post. But hey, if we're going for sound bites, I'm insisting that it'd be lot quieter if folks did more and shouted less. :D ..but really, I'm challenging the action and questioning its effectiveness while attempting to highlight how such action can be detrimental and in...

To further this - and to clarify my own intent: I'm not looking to argue whether calling something out as wrong is an action that should or should not be taken. I'm hoping to nudge people into considering: What comes next? So we've labelled all the 'bad ones*' and listed their crimes. What...

On the flip side, I see the same half-efforts with folks not willing to go the distance. And then expecting, as if by some miracle, folks to change. It becomes worse when others see such efforts and support through doing more of the same, until it becomes the norm - and anything beyond this norm...

To be fair - while it wasn't the worst movie released that month, it was a pretty terrible Ghostbusters movie. If it was its own thing, not connected to two very popular movies, I doubt expectations would have been so high. They were, for better or for worse, so the comparatively quality...

Not saying its your responsibility to do... anything.. really. You do/be you! :) Simply pointing out that.. pointing things out is easy. And not likely to change anything. Worse, it can actually make constructive, healthy change potentially that much harder. Specifically with how some folks...

Just letting you know how, 'telling people they're asshats' isn't very effective in terms of promoting change in others. It's a failing strategy, one that promotes confrontation and polarizes opinions. If folks want a fight, ok, then its a great way to get one. If folks really want to promote...

I reckon it'd still work. At least, at our table I'd have no issue with it working as normal indoors. Because, well.... ..it's magic. :) Spells that are dependent on environmental conditions typically call them out - Call Lightning springs to mind as a good example. Now, if you really...

See, to me this is just remembering folks are human. Best intentions, sometimes crappy behaviours. It does drive me a little nuts when such phrases used aggressively (and often, passive aggressively) because if there's something you learn in professions where the focus is on helping folks change...

Just here to give a shout out for the lovely College of Swords bards! You folks are awesome! <3

Wisdom save, DC = context (Cackling over the death of parents whilst wearing their ears as a necklace? Higher. Sobbing in the corner of a tavern during a mid-life crisis with an apology list? Lower). Possible Disadvantage if surprised by the meeting. Even then, with a save, you'll need to be...

I think they key word is, 'need'. It implies weakness. A dependency. And of course, needing things is fine. I need help with my medical scans. And central heating system. The trick being, I choose to find someone to help me. Choose someone to need. When folks assume you need help, it gets...

Head and shoulders above most others..
