Korm used his Whirling Blade ability (his sword lets him use it a couple of times daily) and hit both of the boomerang-throwers, and I think he critted one of them. And Luna fired off her Arc of Lightning and the same guy blew his save. I think he went to -30 or something. I described it as one of those cartoon moments when all you have left are two smoking boots. And Gareth did a Smite + Divine Might on Halak when he was down to 20 or so hp and took him well past -10.  True. Korm was putting out 20-30 pts of damage a hit, since he was Power Attacking, and Gareth was doing a base of 4d6 (Holy greatsword) and had a modifier of something like +25 on that (Smite, Divine Might, etc.) on the killing blow. Of course, they could have just gone for nonlethal damage at that point, but nobody considered it. Six probably would have, but he wasn't in the fight.I'll have one up tomorrow.It's from Races of Eberron under the Shifter Druid substitution levels. The druid gives up an animal companion and gains a floating stat boost (+2 to start with, rising gradually to +4 and then +6) to any one stat, and a bunch of special abilities as she increases in level (just as an animal companion improves). Very nice option, and I've used it with non-shifter druids too.Thanks. It just seemed like a flavorful way to explain the fairly rare skillset they brought with them. The boomerang-throwers were Ftr2/Rgr2/Rog3 and Halak was a Bbn1/Warblade7. Their stats are up at the rogues gallery thread.</blockquote>
