Viealna (The Unbounded World): The Aeterian Expedition [OOC Thread]

[Kalanyr]

There are two master zen archers, you could have learnt under, one is the Emperor's Nephew, Chun Hou, who you would have most likely trained other since the other trains commoners. Chun Hou, tends to use excessive meditation and on-foot hunting as his favoured training methods, he is regarded as something disgusting by most of the nobles byt they don't dare speak against someone so closely related to the emperor.

I guess it'd be Knowledge (nature) then if that's what covers religion where he is from. I just figured knowledge (religion) covered all religions, I'll change it to nature if it fits where he is from better.

 

[Kalanyr]

Yeah its an easier enough thing to think, I should have made it clearer.

And now a more general question: How often do each of you post in a PBP ? I aim to update at least once every 24 hours or whenever everyone playing has posted once (unless interaction would prevent it) and so far that hasn't seemed to be working very well since I see to average barely more than 1 post per update, and today I got zippo in the last 24 hours.

 

[hafrogman]

I try to post as often as there's something compelling to respond to. Your last post didn't actually give much to work from. I've responded to Duncan's comments, but there isn't much Teppic is going to do in response to the ship continuing to sail to Aeter, it's not very surprising to him

There can be conversation and discussion galore, but the I feel that the DM needs to post something definite in order to provoke responses. Mysterious Woman appears to deliver cryptic message = increased action. Mysterious woman leaves, boat sails onwards = lull in action.

 

[Kalanyr]

Yeah if Duncan hadn't prompted discussion I would have done a more major update thats one of the interaction things I was talking about.

Teppic has been updated to level 17

DrZombie, I was chatting with Kal about the Mark Outside Time and what it does and I noticed you forgot to add the wisdom bonus to Skor's AC. This lead me to realize that you still had to update skor to the new level, and, seeing your note that you still have to crunch skor numbers, I though I could lend a hand and crunch some of them for you. I have almost all good news for you.

- Skor's hp should 169 = 13*10 + 13*3 since Kal gives us max hp per level

- Skor's AC should be 32 (now 37 with the Mark)
10 base +3 dex +3 wis +3 monk +4 natural +8 armor +1 dodge (+5 insight)
Touch 20 (now 25)
Flatfooted 28 (now 32)

- You have 27 skill points left to spend. I'd suggest some Listen (class for shintao monk) and Tumble (class for both)

- You didn't list amonk his monk's abilities Wholeness of Body. Skor can heal himself up to 16 hp per day. He can also use his Stunning Attack 9 times per day.

- I'm afraid you used one stat point too much. 86 base +14 from half dragon +3 from advancement total 103, not 104 like your sum. This is the only bad new.

- You have around 6700 gp left to spend.

- Skor's special abilities are:
Darkvision up to 60'
Low light vision
Immunity to sleep, paralysis, cold, stun and slow effect.
Breath weapon: 30' long cone of cold 6d8 damage 1/day save DC 21
Natural attacks: Bite 1d6+14, claws 1d4+14

- Skor would now have 141,560 xp, that would make him an ECL 17 char with 14 class levels. You'd need about 12k xp to pass to the new level.
I's suggest you though to accept Kal's offer and reduce your level adjustment by spending some XP as detailed in Unearthed Arcana. That way you'd have 130,560 xp, you'd be an ECL 16 char, but always with 14 class levels (i.e. you wouldn't lose anything), only this time you'd need only about 6k xp to gain a new level, and you'd take them faster because you'd be a lower ECL than the rest of the party, so the challenges would be greater.
BTW when you reach 15 class levels, you can reduce your level adjustment of another point.

I hope this helps. Now everything's ready for Skor's new level. If you need any help, feel free to ask, you're welcome.

 

[hafrogman]

since Kal gives us max hp per level

Where are you getting that fact from? I never noticed that.

/me contemplates having 208 hp

 

[Lichtenhart]

Where are you getting that fact from? I never noticed that.

Uh, probably from a conversation in the chatroom, since I can't find it either.I always had full hp listed though. I may be wrong. If I am, I'll be happy to roll them.

 

[Kalanyr]

Hmm, strange, it should be in my house rules under Character Creation. Doesn't seem to be, but yes you should have Max HP/HD. Hmmm, musta accidentally deleted it wiping out stuff that was only applicable to low-levels.
