Off To War... Recriutment/Discussion

[Myth and Legend]

Done with Lora's lvl 4 changes, let me know if it's OK before i factor them in the sheet. I also noticed that i haven't been updating my spells in the actual sheet, need to fix that.. And possibly select the spells i will prepare once Lora rests tonight.

There are so many excellent level 2 spells i just don't know what to take first. The magic tattoo thing i found just now (honestly, didn't know i'd find a use for Lora's drawing skill). Ray of Stupidity is awesome when empowered and combined with a quickened True Strike - bye bye mr. 4 Int Bear! (now don't make everyone a super genius to counter this though ) OR better yet: a regular True Strike + a regular Ray of Stupidity = bye bye mr. Hydra! Yes i do beleive Lora will be able to one-shot that pesky Hydra once she rests.

There's also Combust, true it's touch but it's 10d6 fire damage at CLVL 10 with no save plus a chance to set one on fire. There's Protection from Missiles of course, which Lora will need ASAP to avoid being turned in to a pin cushion . There's Blink, Mirror Image, Bull's Strength, Swift Fly, Balor Nimbus, Baleful Transposition (the "any target" variant of Benign Transposition) etc. etc. etc.... Most of those are from the SC though, but i will continue to provide writeup.

My question is, Since we are Lvl 4, will we be getting the according wealth for lvl 4 characters any time soon? I really need to boost Lora's STR score and get her some scrolls for sure.

LvL up looks good ML also sorry I forgot about Lora speaking orc. Let's just say he grimaced as the human female started growling and grunting. It came as a shock to the elf and Brend jumped in so quick shs sure he heard but didn't understand.

@DW not sure what to do with Jareth. Can you post him telling Rizella thanks amd leaving then head where you wish. Remeber Lora is still technically in charge of the group (which is falling away around her lol), so you must decide how your character treats his old companions.

Update tonight which will entail ending the interrigation and some (equipment/researching time) I'm such a nice DM

p.s. the gold per character lvl is not in use remember I have you take on crazy ELs all the time, but I am working on getting everyone something nice for their end of year 1 gift.

Okay... I was waiting on you for an update. *shrug* (EDIT: See post 211 in BaHM.)

Is the level-up good, though? Because I still haven't changed his RG posts, as I have been waiting on the "go ahead."

Sorry have been reading on Arcane Channeling. There are plenty of forumns out there about it. And I looked up Touch spells in the PHB (not much there) I still would like to see some examples of it in use.

What happens on a crit, why are range touch spells not usable (a touch spell is a spell with a range of touch, but I think some spells fit both catagories?? still looking into that though) and what are the effects of Special attacks - trip/disarm/etc. It says may cast as part of a standar melee ation which some of those are.

Everything is good other wise (just no go ahead because I didn't know what Arcane channeling did) so put you lvl 3's in the RG and change Jareth won't be long before the big mass combat and you can try out what you have learned.

Crit should be resolved normally, with the weapon dealing crit damage and the spell having its' effect. There could be an argument for a crit'ed Channeling dealing crit for weapon and spell (which I wouldn't mind ), but you could also consider the spell to be extra dice of damage, and therefore not subject to crit multipliers. Just to let you know, though, any spell that requires an attack roll can crit, according to the rules (specified in Complete Arcane, but there in PHB also). I'll abide with whatever you choose.

As for Trip/Disarm/etc... Those are attack actions, Arcane Channeling is its own standard action, so they cannot be combined. (Or, that is how I see it, anyway, and would rule if I were DM'ing.)

Well, I'll edit the RG posts with the new info. I was mainly asking for the OK on his HP, skills, feat and all that. Arcane Channeling could take a while to use, since combat could be a some time away, with the posting rate.

And do you want me to come up with something for Jareth to leave the luncheon, or could you just post something about the lunch ending and Rizella having to take care of her own duties/whatever? Despite being rather surly most of the time, Jareth would not leave a lady alone, after being invited by her to a meal. He was raised in semi-courtly surroundings, after all.

 

[Frozen Messiah]

Does anyone have any ideas on how to get any info from the bloody elf? I mean I thought about bringing in Jareth but I don't believe that he would be very receptive to the idea. I am totally out of ideas, anyone has any sort of spell that may help?

 

[HolyMan]

You already got the info you need, I will be posting an update tonight with all of it and we will move forward.

I personaly would try to reason with him and try to find some ways of communicating. Perhaps Lora's drawing skills could come in to play? Although she'd rather just throw him shoveling dung out of the stables

Oh wow i read the reply. We were all deceived by Deskjob's posts of Marko hearing nothing but insults and raving i think.

 

[Deskjob]

Deskjob

I was deceived myself. Lolz. I kinda thought the elf was just rambling on again... Guess he wasn't. Good thing HolyMan did that last post for me too. I would have just translated Marko's perspective.

"What did he say Marko?"
"Uhh, that your Mom is an Orcish whore."
"Really?"
"Yep. Thats about it. Bag em' and Gag em'. Looks like were done here..."

 

[HolyMan]

That's one of the things about reading the RP instead of being around the table alot can be missed (body language, facial experrsions, etc.) I will try and convey more emotion through my fingertips. LOL

@Deskjob didn't anyone notice my good cop bad cop routine???
