Rhun's Greyhawk OMEGA OOC Thread (ToEE) - CLOSED!!!

What about situationaly appropriate poetry? Or Haikus? He could become the legendary warrior/monk/poet!

A rose by any other name would smell as sweet, not so your face once it's met my feet.

I totally missed seeing that those bandits were already blind! Was that due to Sir Merrick's nifty ability?

No. Merrick's ability only requires him to give up an attack to make himself a giant glowing "target me" sign so everybody can see in the dark, which he himself can already do without the ability. But it does look cool.

Hey, thanks for keeping things going. I'm going to be out for the next few days (should be back Tuesday) so hopefully I'll finally get a chance to contribute.

 

[Rhun]

I should have the next post up today. The last couple of days have been hectic.

Take your time. I'm running a 12k on Monday so I won't be around til Tuesday.

Jinx leveled up. Guess I'll be needing to select two new spells and all, eh? Would you like to do the honor of rolling his HP, Rhun? He'll be taking another level in wizard, of course, so it's a d4.

Sorry for not reading the IC carefully enough, especially there at the end. I basically saw the combat round declaration and got fired up with an idea for Jinx and neglected to read that combat was actually over. Heh. Fits Jinx well enough, though...small, easily frightened, often full of himself, largely useless, and always on the tail end of things.

Yep, select your new spells. Hitpoints are average rounded up, so Jinx gains 3 + Con.

Hee Hee! I really like Jinx, actually. I'm glad you came back to the game.

Wow, I'm glad you reminded me to put my character sheet online when you did, Rhun. Just a couple days ago my hard drive dropped dead and I can't seem to revive it anymore.

That's why I back all my PCs up to my thumb drive as well! Can be too careful in these days of electronic storage.

Rhun, for your approval re: Jinx level 3 wizard:

Fortitude and Reflex save increase by +1.

Feat: Improved Counterspell

Skill points* (6 to spend):
+1 to Concentration
+1 to Decipher script
+1 to Knowledge (arcana)
+1 to Knowledge (architecture and engineering)
+1 to Knowledge (religion)
+1 to Spellcraft

Spells: Spiderclimb, scorching ray

*In conjunction with his theology discussion with Aeron and Ciaran in the barn, I would like to have Jinx take his first rank in Knowledge (religion)--thanks Dichotomy and IVV. Jinx's also seen a bit of magic and some interesting architecture since level 2, so I'd like to have him increase in Knowledge (arcana) and Knowledge (architecture/engineering) as well. Spellcraft--he's been casting spells, so that fits. Same with Concentration--particularly during the last battle when he tried to nail the bandit lieutenant with ray of enfeeblement. And, cheese weasel me the player wants to up Decipher Script for no other reason that, well...I just like that skill and want to.

I would like to take Improved Counterspell for Jinx's feat. I've never used that feat before and I find myself curious how well (or not well) it will work. Jinx is a generalist wizard, so it helps that he doesn't have any schools of magic barred, hopefully making Improved Counterspell more useful. On that note, for spells, I've tenuously selected spiderclimb and scorching ray for Jinx. I would have prefered resist energy over scorching ray, but with me wanting to go with Improved Counterspell, it seemed prudent to take something from the evocation school.

And any ole time you find yourself wondering whether to tailor treasure to the party, Jinx would love to find a scroll with a 1st-level transmutation spell (he's got all the schools covered at first level except for that one) or some sort of magic item that helps him counterspell.

If any of the above isn't acceptable, let me know and I'll gladly swap it for something else.
