Bacon of Hope

[Darth_Asparagus]

OK, this is silly but: Am I the only one that continuously reads "Beacon of Hope" as "Bacon of Hope"?

I would like to make a power that more appropriately reflects the sizzling fat aspect of clerical magic. Any ideas? I this an attack or more a utility power? Is it daily (breakfast) or only for weekends?

--Utility, obviously; it's Bacon of Hope, not Bacon of Burning Thine Enemies.

--Encounter. Don't tell me you've never had bacon for a meal other than breakfast.

--Details...hmm. I'll think about it and get back to you.

What's ironic is that I actually read the thread title as Beacon of Hope and not Bacon of Hope and was confused when you started talking about bacon.

OK, I see now that the whole Bacon of Hope idea only leads to insanity of the worst kind.

Heck, we could make this a running cleric build. How about...

Blazing Bacon​

​

​

Cleric Attack 3​

You invoke the most holy of meats, and your weapon sizzles and crackles. When you strike your foe, a blazing strip of bacon burns its way into the foe's forehead, guiding your allies' attacks with its divine aroma.

Meanwhile, Clerics of Veganism must take the "Fakin' Bacon" feat in order to use these powers.

Incidentally, since bacon is primarily a breakfast food, I think they should be daily powers. Unless of course you're counting second breakfast, elevensies, etc.

 

[Stormhound]

You've never had a BLT? A bacon cheeseburger? I agree with the person above...Encounter powers, definitely.

Shouldn't this do fire damage from the sizzling fat grease?
