[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 7061116, member: 57383"] One question is, do we want the ability to allow the Paper Warrior to cast two standard-action spells per round? The Choker's speed ability would let it do so. Maybe we should have something along the lines of "this gives the paper warrior all the benefits of the [I]haste[/I] spell. In addition, if the paper warrior folds Origami while speeded it produces twice as many origami creations as it would normally." There's nothing in the original text to indicate that it can't have multiple shield beetles running simultaneously. I was assuming the beetle would have to put itself on the line-of-effect between an attacker and the target to interpose and block the attack. I'm not sure it could even be in the same square as the Paper Warrior without impeding it - most of these creations are Medium sized, so it would apply the "squeezing two creatures into one square" penalties if that was how it worked. 'Course, maybe it's an exception where it's just "floating around" the Paper Warrior like a [I]dancing shield[/I] would. Indeed, it's pretty similar to a [I]dancing shield[/I]. That said, I like the idea of the Paper Warrior being able to assign a beetle to shield another object or creature. [/QUOTE]
