[OOC] Psionicle

[GnomeWorks]

The Negate Technology power works the same way as Negate Magic does, mechanics wise, with the obvious difference (affecting tech rather than magic).

To sum it up: the physical laws within the area of the power are inverted - and thus, technology cannot operate, because it is based off of physical law. Psionics still work normally, b/c they work through loopholes in physical laws. Magic operates "outside the box", and so just ignores natural laws anyway, so this has no effect on magic.

A welcome from me as well Dkoz!

What level are those power stones created at? Makes a difference for duration, primarily.

What level are those [darkvision] power stones created at?

Tenth (10th).

 

[Jarval]

Since Syld's got natural darkvision we're going to have a spare power stone. Could be useful.

Have stats for Desimus been posted? I was wondering what spells he's got available. Or is this deliberate, as we don't know much about him yet?

 

[Hand of Vecna]

Welcome aboard, dkoz!

 

[dkoz]

I haven't posted Desimus's stats because I thought it might be nice to have a little mystery.

Hints: He's not spectacular (especially in HP...d4 hit dice is tough on the body), but I think he will be useful to have around.
He doesn't have magic missile. He just isn't that kind of guy.

If any of you really think not knowing information like his spells, skills, or abilities is detrimental to the flow of the game let me know and I will post them. If you are just curious about his magical abilities you could ask him in game and I am sure he would be willing to answer any questions.

Oh, one more thing. It seems everyone is going to have darkvision in the tunnels except Desimus. So, he will still have to carry a torch. At least in 3E light doesn't affect DV anymore.

Edit: Added last paragraph.

Hmm...

I could justify this either way, but I'm going to leave it in the hands of the players.

I already have Desimus' stats, so I am aware of what he has and is capable of.

However, dkoz - I think that posting your combat abilities, at least, is a must. The party should know what you are capable of in combat, and how much you can handle. Otherwise, they'll have to guess about your abilities, which might not be a good thing. Just a thought, that all of you should probably take into consideration.

 

[Jarval]

I don't mind if you keep Desimus's stats a secret. Makes things a bit more realistic in a way, as we've only just met him. But I think Gnome has a point about the combat stats. We need to know if and when to yell "Cleric"

Oh, and the Darkvision power has a range of Touch, so one of us psionic types can manifest it on you if you want.

As long as we don't roll low on Desimus' PR check, which shouldn't be that hard comapred to the caster level of the stones.
