What do you mean I'm cursed? Cursed how? What's cursed about me?

I mean, you know, maybe it's me, I'm feeling a little angry at these people who thoughtlessly breathe the air that they do not deserve maybe, but I'm cursed how? I mean, cursed like bad language? I curse at you, I'm here to damn you? I'm here to damn you to the mighty djinn? What do you mean, cursed? Cursed how? How am I cursed?

I don't know what you're talking about. How do I know? You said I'm cursed. How in the name of al-Rabb am I cursed, what is cursed about me? Tell me, what am I cursing about!

-Shamal, not cursingly.
Point taken. lol
 


Team Lake

We've slowed down a bit, so I think we may need to discuss what you all mean to achieve here. You appear to be making peace with the Lizardfolk, which is okay, if that's what you want to do, but Guldred (the Outcast) specifically was hoping that you would stage a Coup for him and, frankly, assassinate Muragh (the Usurper).

My point is, if you make friends now, you alienate a friend you made in the past.

I'm only saying this because I feel like you may have forgotten these facts - or heck, maybe I've forgotten that you didn't learn it? I'll have to look back when I get a second.

At any rate, @Steve Gorak - I think that Muragh is willing to talk, if that's what you want to do.

This is why I did the synopsis. I found it odd that the group was making friends with the lizard folk chief that had been put in place by the cultists. So, you did not forget to mention it.
 

Double post:
@FitzTheRuke my character sheet still has one inspiration marked.

I’m not sure if it was used to force the houndsman to reroll a successful save against the hold person and, if it wasn’t used, if it was used against the wizard’s acid attack.

If not, I’ll keep it on my character sheet rather than go back in time.
 

I'm sorry for the triple post:

Graze vs Mirror image.

I missed. So, I assumed the graze still works and, IC, I rolled to see if it affected one of the images (which it did) so I assume one of the images goes away.

BUT,

My google search result implies, that because I missed, the mirror image is unaffected because it only is interacted with on a hit. Which means the Graze damages the wizard(3 damage). Which would force her to make a concentration check. Which seems kind of powerful to auto-force a concentration check.

Woah! I love weird rules interactions, and that... huh. RAW, seems to be the case.
 

If you hit the caster, you hit the image instead, if you miss the caster there is no roll. Damage is not "a hit" ...I'd say it doesn't trigger, but I admit not to be expert on weapon properties :)

So, you didn't actually miss the caster when you're redirected, you hit. It is just that what was hit was an image.
And when you miss, you don't "hit" an image...nor the caster...hm... :D argh!
 

I think this is actually very simple if you look at it like this: great weapons do graze damage because they 'sweep' through the area

Mirror images trigger on a HIT
Graze triggers on a MISS

They are mutually exclusive, the original caster gets minor damage and needs to save. Imagine if there weren't any images, but Haste (for example) - the caster would have to save...it is the same here.

And if he cannot save vs 3-5 damage...yeah, he needs new career :D
