Opps Shaylir is my new halfling druid/cleric I just started playing. If your have a moment Shayuri (ha) What more do we wish to do to create this first lyncanthrope?? Have to have something posted with silver and the moon. Maybe the moon will be full this night.

Am thinking on it "little sister".

Okay, here's my thoughts.

There's two kinds of lycanthrope: cursed and natural.

I have a kind of specific scenario I want to write that describes the creation of 'cursed' lycanthropes. This scene you're doing now is just fine for the creation of natural lycanthropes.

Both silver and the moon are symbols of Silhouette, so my suggestion is to have the wolf's transformation be incomplete somehow...have its own power not quite be enough to make the change entirely. Silhouette can then use her power to help it along.

Thus, the lycanthropic power to shift forms comes, in part, from the moon. It surges when the moon is full (causing accidental changes), and wounds caused by silver (moon metal) can't be healed instantly via shapeshifting (ie - DR doesn't work against it).

Neither of those side effects is intentional. This is new for Silhouette too.

Yes it is, these guys are 20th lvl Barbarians (see Dieties and Demigods pg. 200)

I hope that DR 4/- doesn't prolong this to much I wish to get back to the RPing while I figure out what to do about combats. Pbp is no place to run a large combat that will last 8-10 rounds. that could take almost two months

Dang, this could have serious repercussions for my damage potential. Using 3.0 damage reduction really sucks for me. It almost totally negates my spiders ability to injure these giants. If it were 3.5 damage reduction it would be different. In the current round my damage just dropped from 90 to 18. Ce la vie.

Trust me GE.... I KNOW your pain only mine isn't the DR it's the fricken Fire Resistance.. heh

Very Nice I will update tomorrow night then with the beast trying to change more but unable to. And will try and get the "moon metal" in there as well.

You are in for a surprise too but not from "The Big Bad Wolf." LOL

And that is what I was thinking on myself, it may take forever to play out a fight like this (at least 10+ rounds at 18hp dmg per round)

We will figure something out.

The simplest solution would be to use the 3.5 edition rules for divinities.

They're in the SRD, so no new purchases would be required. In most ways the two editions are identical. However, damage reduction has been simplified and scaled back.

I think the game would benefit from both.

As for moon metal, don't worry too much about it. I have an idea for including it in my reply. Plus, it's really just a side effect. No need to make too much of it, IMO...

Well, that was just one attack for Ubariya. Next round she'll be able to full attack and the damage should be substantially higher. I was concerned at first because I haven't really built her with spellcasting in mind; she's not exactly a frontliner but she's no slouch in the hand-to-hand department. At least, I don't think she is.

HM as far as streamlining combat for Heliasillyel: those rocks can't hit her whopping 48 AC unless giant boy gets a natural 20. Just roll like 3 or 4 rounds worth of attacks, if he does get a natural 20 subtract the damage from her DR and the rest will go off her HP (unless they have +4 boulders lol).

She will be doing, on average, 50-70 damage per round so it's safe to say in 3 rounds (after the 2 that have already passed) she will drop him.

 

[HolyMan]

I thought dieties of the same DR (Div Rank) ignored each others DR (Dmg Red) boy is that wierd LOL. No seriously I thought I read that and that was why I chose these guys to fight.

HM

Edit: Not so you could hit them but so they could hit you LOL
