    Is'Merith - Campaign Thread

    Shen's personality melts away as soon as she enters the darkness. She carries herself lower to the ground, keeping her feet level as she walks to displace as little sand as possible with each step; when the light catches her, her eyes are wide and emotionless, her head turning this way and that...

    Are these the mines Isaac knows already? I thought we were still approaching the compound or something, but I'm not totally clear. Isaac, Shen, Daedarai, guy, Mina, Alejandro sounds good to me (you can consider that my vote if it comes to that). Given the environment I don't think we can trust...

    "Works for me." Shen crouches at the gaping cave tunnel, trying to see anything further down; green, in particular. "Temperature should keep a little better in there than outside. 'specially if there's some kinda body heat." Can't see anything, of course. She rushes to catch up with Alejandro...

    Hey, this wasn't my idea. Well that was, but still. We just had a literal D-measuring contest. But I will err back on the side of caution.

    D&D 5E (2014) The City of Is'Merith

    Given that every single thing in Australia is poisonous, it doesn't surprise me.

    Shen raises an eyebrow toward Isaac. "Sure. I also do free dental, so you let me know when you're tired a' havin' all them teeth." Shen clenches and opens her fist a couple times for emphasis, with a barely-concealed grin under her tough-guy scowl. It's like being back in the army. (...) Mina...

    If Shen hears anything about trying to sell javelins, she'll buy them from you. And she has only a cursory idea of how valuable coins are. Meant to say that earlier but kept forgetting.

    When the box finally comes to a stop, Shen can only lay curled forward, face planted on the ground, half in grateful supplication and half in the unique of misery of your stomach feeling like it's going to shoot up your throat and commandeer the boat itself if it doesn't cut out the infernal...

    Is'Merith - Campaign Thread

    Shen lets the others part from her, walking down the street as though she has somewhere to go as they split off in their own directions. She sticks to the larger streets, keeping close to anyone else she finds, to avoid being singled out in this unfamiliar place. She watches the city change...

    D&D 5E (2014) The City of Is'Merith

    Not the DM, but the devs confirmed a while back in errata that the two-handed property is only relevant while "using" a weapon, i.e. attacking with it. Otherwise you can hold it in one hand while doing other stuff. (Bows wouldn't make sense otherwise.) But I've heard of DMs ignoring that in...

    Shen leans over to Mina, half-whispering so Alejandro doesn't hear. "Who's 'Amenome?'"

    Met a sand goblin once. Fungi. I'd lichen him to a young me.

    @TGG, if I slap you I'd have to slap myself, I always write more than I planned. But I love your stuff, so I'll only slap you if you're into that. I have a copy of the RP I once did with some friends, which was at least 150 pages long last I checked; enough text to seriously lag my computer...

    "Fits," Shen replied to Alejandro under her breath, so as not to disturb the important talks. "Might be best to make us all code names if we're gonna be sneak thiefs now." She takes a swig of her beer - better to stick to the light stuff after today's, uh, sampling. It's mild and tastes like...

    The meeting adjourned, Shen gives Alejandro a big thumbs-up at the suggestion of "pub." "Be there in a shake Al, I've gotta get some memorabilia first." She tips her hat to Kyle, gives Daedarai a bow and a quick "pardon, Boss," and hurries off the boat, pockets newly jangly. In truth, more than...

    Weathercock's Better Berserker Barbarian

    I do understand that, but it just feels very flat. Usually upgrades like that are more uses of some resource, but even then, subclass features rarely take that form, since they have to account for a lot of character identity with those four or five features. Removing the condition for that BA...

    Hey, I've been staying home sick today, and it only just occurred to me that I had to post for this campaign. I'll get in something tomorrow, but no one wait up on my account. Sorry ;(

    Shen gulps down the remains of her drinks like they're water and bounds to the newcomers, shaking their hands in turn enthusiastically. "Hi! Shenemnenmone Tanner, at your service. Bodyguard to the boss there, right now," she explains with a thumb jerked toward Daedarai. Then, in a half-whisper...

    Weathercock's Better Berserker Barbarian

    Frenzy, as presented here, invalidates Bloodlust. It's as if you don't have that feature anymore, which actually puts you behind the curve at that point, as well as making the archetype feel sparse. Making Bloodlust a BA seems counterproductive, for the reason above and for the conflicts with...

    Edited the relevant section, hopefully that matches up better. Leaving the previous explanation to Alejandro as-is, it's close enough. Looking forward to our new member!
