[Recruiting] HUSSies Graduation Exam (Elements of Magic Revised)

[Komodo]

I went and bought the file, but the link didn't arrive. I've contacted customer support, and will commence reading as soon as I obtain the information.

So, chalk me up as a player. Maybe expect a character within two days.

 

[Komodo]

I gots me a question. Do bloodline levels stack for caster level? I wish I didn't have to play as a human, because my code of conduct prohibits it. So, I'm taking a bloodline to stay as far from human as possible.

 

[Voadam]

I'd be interested as well. I'd like to see how EOM actually plays in practice.

I have EOM but not revised so I would play a fighter or monk bodyguard/grog for the team.

Let me know if you were still accepting recruits or if it is closed.

Hello all. I have just had a really bad week at work thats only going to get worse come monday. I will try to answer questions.

Particle_Man> Wow, you had to pick the hardest one didn't you? It is a little unclear. I will have to do some more reading and maby ask Ryan Nock. Your illusionary man will do 20% of the damage a 1st level human warrior will do if the target fails to disbelieve.

Komodo> They sort of count. Things like caster level and DC for special abilities go up. But they don't count for spells known, per day, ect.

Voadam> Yup, still open.

See the equipment manager on your way to the dock to get your gear.

So we don't pick our own gear?

So we don't pick our own gear?

Originally I was thinking that but nevermind. Go ahead and pick out the gear for your character. Lets just assume that you don't walk around in full kit all the time and you can't have weapons and stuff in your room. Therefore, you would have to pick them up before a mission.

Just to add to your woes: Could I do a 20% real version of a 4th level warrior? Of an Ogre? Of a Solar? Could such an illusion (with Illusion Nature as a component) open doors and such? (If we don't get a rogue, its a heck of a way to test doors, etc., for traps).

From what I understand you create an illusion of the base creature so no.

Of an Ogre?

Yes.

Of a Solar?

Yes.

Could such an illusion (with Illusion Nature as a component) open doors and such? (If we don't get a rogue, its a heck of a way to test doors, etc., for traps).

Yes. This is really walking the line of the illusion list but it seems legit to me.

 

[Particle_Man]

Well, how do you want to rule it then? I mean, 20% of a solar's damage and abilities seems gross for a 4th level character, but 20% of a 1st level warrior seems a little weak for a 4th level character. But they cost the same amount of spell points. Should I base it on creatures I have been exposed to (either in life or in training?) If so, what creatures shall my character have been exposed to, in your game?
