[QUOTE="Warpiglet, post: 7397469, member: 6689161"] I realize I am late to add this... I have been the DM for the most recent campaign. We faced off against a goblin shaman as well as three hobgoblins. The hobgoblins are thinking surrender (since only the leader is left) and the shaman steps forward and rolls a 20! for inflict wounds on a second level character. Well...I was not pleased. The first three rolls were 9, 9, 2 (20 damage!) with three d10 to go. I assumed that was that and "fudged," since the character engaged in the fight and did nothing supremely stupid. Hell, he just ran up and got it. I hate fudging and was overjoyed to learn that as Aasimar he is resistant to necrotic damage! Any other character would have been dead, dead, dead. Ever since then I have been thinking about characters that use sinister touch spells like that. A cleric wizard (necromancer) might be kind of cool. Perhaps a cleric warlock with upscaled inflict wounds and fiend or hexblade with soul-sucking healing might be fun with it as well! [/QUOTE]
