Hive: Musings about Crothian

[Crothian]

Not when I was reading the comics! Oh, sure, he'd do that in public, but he could read printed text. He could feel the ink on the page. He was a 1337 ninja that way.

but he was still "feeling" it like brail, and not seeing it. Oozes don't have the super ability of extra ordianry touching.

Hi. Long time Bard player and captain of the Bards Kick ass society. Nice to meet you.

Bards are a very versatile class but not always strong in combat, and that is what most people base their wrong analysis on. In a solo game a bard is perfect. They have lots of skills you can have him use, they have a bit of magic including healing magic and that can be a life saver, they have great interaction ability with anyone.

Also, if he wants to talk to creatures, let him. In the mind flayer example, I can see the Mind Flayer responding in a curious manner like if your hamburger started talking to you. it can be some great role playing and also through what the MF says show just how evil they are.

Hah. I've been wanting to play a good Bard myself, but I've never had the opportunity. A Rogue/Cleric might be a better combination overall, but Bards just seem neat.

Yeah, I'll let him talk to whatever he wants, but I'd expect most mind flayers to be like, "Hm, my hamburger is talking. ... Yeah, interesting for a little while but I'm still hungry. *chomp*"

Some, though, might toy with him and keep him alive, though. We'll see how the game goes.

So what you're saying is Daredevil > Oozes.

 

[Crothian]

also, maybe having a first level bard run into a mind flayer is a bad idea...just something to think about

no, he just has different powers. In a fight the ooze would win. He would attack with his billy club, it would be dissolved. he would punch or kick, and then he would be dissolved.

Heh. "Welcome to the game! You're in a town. You see a humanoid-like figure except his head looks like a squid. Everyone is running in terror, but the odd squid-man is walking towards you. If you had to guess what he'd look like smiling, this would be it..."

Hm, okay. So what you're saying is that Daredevil > Oozes in a speed-reading competition.

Then Oozes got the shaft, man! You should be at LEAST as cool as Daredevil!

/me imagines an Ooze with a mask.
"You'll never guess my identity!"

only if you define reading as not osmosis. ?Using that process we can absorb thousands of pages a minute, much faster the DD can "read"
