NC Game Day VII - April 23!

[Clueless]

Regarding my planar game... here's the rough details on what pregen characters I'll have available for folks to use. I'll also field questions on them.

Gareth Earthsinger : Male Planar Dwarf (former Signer) Wizard 8. Male. CN
‘Maatkare’ : Female Aasimar cleric 7 of Nephthys. (member of the Ash sect of the Doomguard) CG
Milo Truehand : Male halfling fighter 8 (member of the Order of the Planes Militant). LG
Ardrith ‘Toutbane’ : Male tiefling rogue 7 (ex member of the Drowning Ravens, a gang in Sigil’s Hive). TN
Ashayt : Female tiefling paladin (of Anu) 7. (Member of the Harmonium). LN.
‘Xia’ : Female Air Genasi Wu-Jen 7 (member of the Transcendent Order). NG

Aren't oyu missing one from this list - or are you already counting her?

 

[Henry]

Old One, I have a few last-minute questions:

--In "Armor as damage conversion," does the armor count SOLELY for damage conversion, or damage conversion and AC? I assume the former from reading it, but wanted to get your take.

--Are you using "exploding d6" in place of multiple d6 rolling, or when we spend action points, are we rolling 2d6 and taking the best one? 9th level is sufficient level in Grim Tales and Black Company for this, but wanted to see what we were doing.

--If I understand it correctly, if a spellcaster casts a spell that exceeds his hit point total, he is just knocked unconscious, correct? Can we die from spell drain?

--Lastly, does halfling taste like chicken in your campaign world? (Just kidding.)

Henry,

In reverse order...

1) Halfling tastes like twinkies

2) If accumulated non-lethal damage exceeds current hit points, a PC falls unconscious. It is not possible for non-lethal damage to kill a PC

3) Each AP equals a single d6 roll (not multiple dice, as with the BCCS chart). The exploding dice comes if you roll a "6"...then you get to roll another die and total the results.

4) Nope. Under Armor Conversion, armor provides its normal AC protection and converts its AC value from lethal to non-lethal vs. physical attacks.

hmmm...

Boy, am I glad I asked!

 

[Belen]

So, what am I forgetting?

How much do we owe you? I will need to have some cash handy for a change. Also, what would you like us to bring? I can bring some hamburger and hotdog buns and some paper plates if you need them. I will also bring a pack of hot dogs.

Ah, good question. For those planning on partaking in the BBQ, $4 each will cover it just fine. That will let me "super size" one of the PDQ's just to make sure there is "a mess of food". Beyond that, if I collect a buck per hot dog then that'll cover the remaining expenses of hot dogs, buns, chips and paper products.

Dave

You're absolutely welcome to bring anything you like but I'm planning on covering the necessary paper products and having a good supply of plastic cups on hand. Maybe a bag of ice? If somebody wants to bring in S'Mores fixins then you're welcome to but as a diabetic I draw the line at providing the marshmallows (Shemeska's offer notwithstanding - BTW, Shemmie, get working on that cure and I'll be first in line when it's available at my Doctor's office. Until then...I've seen too many mad scientist movies. The monster ALWAYS meets a bad end.).

 

[Rel]

1) Halfling tastes like twinkies

Dammit!

 

[Shemeska]

Aren't oyu missing one from this list - or are you already counting her?

She isn't one of the available choices there since you already snagged her.

 

[Riggs]

Insofar as the food situation goes, I think I'm planning on getting 5 PDQ's from Ole Time but that includes an extra for Henry to take home to his beloved. That's enough BBQ and fixins to feed about 12 people a generous plate of food. This is slated to feed:

Me
My wife
Henry
Old One
Tiberious
die kluge
Nakia
Cthulhu's Librarian
Riggs
NCSUCodeMonkey
BelenUmeria
Alenda

If your name is not on that list it doesn't mean that I don't like you or that you can't have any BBQ. It just means that I'm crazy busy right now and I forgot or was not aware that you wanted in on the pork. So let me know if I left you off or if you're on there but don't want to be. On top of that I was going to get some hot dogs, buns and condiments plus 2 or 3 bags of chips.


So, what am I forgetting?

Just for logistical completeness, don't buy any BBQ for me, and count me in for hot dogs.

Noted. I'll modify my list a bit.

Edit: And stop using those color tags before you give somebody eye-cancer.
