[QUOTE="Larrin, post: 5681518, member: 55816"] The theme dead rat deserter lets you turn into a tiny rat, and in D&D encounters my scout has that theme: The only penalty is that you can't attack. So last week I realized that I could still make heal checks in rat form, so when the cleric went unconscious I went into rat form and made a heal check, flavoring it that i climbed into the clerics mouth and massaged his uvula. Even with a -1 due to my 8 wisdom, i still made the check. It was much more fun than just making the check in normal form. Since then I've been trying to think of fun things to do using: * tiny (can enter others space) *climb speed 3 * humor My first idea is to climb up on allies, and let them move me around, then popping back to human form on my next turn. this morphed into a couple of further ideas: *do this with the defender, to make it impossible for them not to trigger his anger if they try and mellee me * aid another with defense or attack by grabbing their hair, a la rattatouille I wouldn't spend a lot of time doing this, but as a scout I'm often the first one down to low health, so i'm interested in safe ways to use my rat form defensively and funly. Anyway, Any suggestions? I'm not trying to power game as much as use the power uniquely and amusingly. [/QUOTE]
