sorry, I was waiting for my init to come up, and then I realized that everybody was holding for Grok.

 

[Yttermayn]

I must admit my ignorance here. Not sure exactly how to handle a character trying to use raw strength to rip a tiny creature in half. I'm open to suggestions.

 

[Voda Vosa]

How about rolling a strength check, and if it's superior to the creature's hp+ CON bonus, or a Constitution roll, it gets destroyed? Just brainstorming.

sorry for putting you in a quandry. if it's too big a deal, I can have him just toss it on the ground and try to smash it with his mace.

I suppose you could use the grapple sequence since we're already in a grapple. in that case he'd be trying lethal damage and would be at a -4 to his grapple check to deal damage. he'd then get 1d3+4 for damage. not that i'd expect that to kill it, but if it did, then perhaps the theatrical could be the gruesome ripping in half.

Not a problem, man. Figuring this out is how I learn and grow as a GM.

I think I will use grapple rules, with a higher target number for doing lethal damage. You will have to establish a Pin, trying to get a good solid grip on two halves of the creature. Then we'll use a healthy strength check to determine the ripping. I'll post what rolls need to be made in the ic thread.

At least he isnt t4rying to grapple a silver dragon like a cirtain swashbuckler i know tried . . hey ! why are my fingers pointed at me?!

 

[Voda Vosa]

Yeah but it worked nicely when certain centaur did the same.
