Haha. As a matter of principle, I approve of whoever was DMing that game!
The whole "Mage hand" shtick of the Arcane Trickster got me thinking of that Voodoo wax hand you see in pop culture, the one that gets lit to talk to or control the dead (yes, I just watched Constantine the other night)...

That would be [MENTION=11520]Scotley[/MENTION] and [MENTION=29548]mleibrock[/MENTION] . They are running a mythic level game for us, Wrath of the Righteous: Sword of Valor. We started at 6th level and skipped the low level adventure and I'm happy about that. There is something to be said about starting at first level and developing up but I am soooooo dying to try out some high level... stuff. And in PBP 99% die and since you started at one you just don't get anywhere near the higher levels. It's depressing. So I was really happy to get to try out that Fireball and I was surprised at how well I rolled. Whew. But I think most of us are still waiting to get really challenged with all our new powers. Can't wait!
That is seven kinds of awesome. One for each sea.
Ya know, I feel like Observant is an underrated feat now? Or perhaps, more accurately, an under-utilized feat by GMs. But not you, sir! I love it. It fits my idea of Nia perfectly!
It's so rewarding when the mechanics of the game so closely match and support a character's concept.

Agreed! That is an awesome find, [MENTION=8058]Queenie[/MENTION]! Thank you for sharing!
[MENTION=4936]Shayuri[/MENTION] Good, I'm glad you feel that way I have a paragraph on each of your characters which I consult now and then to make sure my posts are speaking to your characters' unique strengths (and sometimes weaknesses).

Er...most of the stuff is just practical notes (like passive perception, special abilities from feats, etc) that you wouldn't find interesting, but here's my notes on Katarina (minus secret DM stuff)...You're welcome! Do we ever get to see these mythical paragraphs?

Hey everyone, a quick request!
[MENTION=51930]fireinthedust[/MENTION] pointed out that I've been unclear about formatting posts (due to my being new to running games by PbP). I wanted to apologize to everyone about that, and particularly to [MENTION=51930]fireinthedust[/MENTION] if I came across as singling you out.
From now on, if your character is whispering something or speak confidentially to someone (for example, Nia Steeleyes' whisper to Katarina, or du Tourbillon's private conversation with Katarina and Barrington), please use SBLOCK tags! And in the SBLOCK subject line just make it clear who you're whispering or speaking confidentially to. I will do the same from now on too. Thanks!
My background is mostly face-to-face games, where players can easily differentiate between things their characters know or don't know thru social cues or quick questions to the DM. In PbP we don't have that luxury, and I was incorrect to assume differentiating character knowledge from OOC knowledge would be similarly easy. Learning curve
EDIT: Also, [MENTION=51930]fireinthedust[/MENTION] I've officially filled your PM storage to the max!
