OOC - [Epic] Scions of the Endless Falls - Full

[Ferrix]

Just some notes:

Some forms of blindsight/sense are negated when the creature is deafened/silenced/etc. When a creature has blindsight/sense it is often described how it attains this information, and if it's a very specific way (a bat's sonar) it says when it doesn't work (silenced). Also some forms of blindsight/sense require line of effect, therefore you can hide behind a physical object and they still don't notice you.

Tremorsense is often foiled if you aren't in contact with the ground itself (going tree to tree, or onto a table, wall can get you away from this).

Yep, and standing behind a rock or in a fog bank prevents people from seeing you, but it doesn't make invisibility any less useful. Also, not every creature with the ability specifies how it gets it; oozes and dragons, for example.

Well, perhaps you cannot sneak up on your fellow Epic characters, but I guarantee you will be all but undetectable to most other creatures in the multiverse. Let's let this conversation quiet for now, and continue with the IC plotting. Nit-picking abilities can wait for a while, okiday?

I looked at the bard spell list later, I think your case is strong enough that I won't further add to that mess.

On the second point, if your character has some deficiency (and it is an if) then it is FUN to try and find ways around it. Believe me, playing the invulnerable ungodly powerful guy gets boring. If you want such a spell to exist, research it yourself or have someone else do it for you (problems with playing a spontaneous caster).

Lastly, you can't turn into a dark stalker either (You are half-fey, your type is fey and you can only change into things of your own type) Also, just so there isn't some misunderstanding, you would gain +2 natural armor from being a Dark Stalker, the spell only gives you the gross physical qualities, not extraordinary abilities.

Also - Rikandur Azebol, I haven't had time to go over Tsunami closely, but she looks like a really fun character. You can post her in the alternate rogue's gallery if you wish.

Playin' the game!

 

[Kelleris]

Doi! Completely forgot that my type changed. Thanks for the catch. I wouldn't be so worried about blindsight if it wasn't so darn common, especially at epic levels. If it was class ability granted by 7 levels of a specific prestige class or something, it would be a different thing entirely. But it's an ability granted by a cheap item that a pretty large number of creatures (and maybe NPCs, if they realize how powerful his ability is and how little it costs). There are entire types and subtypes of creatures that are just assumed to have it. And I do enjoy finding ways around things, but this just seems too... endemic to the game to not be covered by a pretty standard ability. I want to have all the really basic things covered, so the DM can throw us for a loop with something creative. It should take something really powerful or unusual to surprise someone who's XPed their way up to 30th level.

Kangaxx - Sorry. I feel all hiatused right now, or I'd've said something. Want me to pop you a quick bit of telepathy? Nothing like out-of-the-blue telepathy to stoke the fires of paranoia!

You shouldn't act out of character just to say hi. I was wondering more about Solarion and Sigrun who appear to have just stood still for an hour while Caira and Rahveon (who I'm assuming did actually ignore Pilmer since they left) did their thing.

Edit: Nevermind, life moved on while I was typing the post.

 

[Kangaxx]

I'm going to need some more info for the upcoming conversation. Isida, how feasible would it be to attack the gods? Are they known to reside on certain planes or places where we could hunt them down, as per normal D&D canon?

Pilmer has Knowledge(religon) +24 and Knowledge(the planes) +23 if applicable.

 

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

There are places and planes where the gods reside, though they are difficult to get into, of course, and heavily guarded. Such things are canon to anyone with religious training.
