[DnD] D&D Discussion & Enlistment (Save Ends)

Uh, he just gave Hawk his toolkit for the express purpose of opening it. If Zerg was playing pure CharOp he would've been desperate to keep the obviously-trapped box shut since the tight dungeon corridors severely limit his archery options. Cal is a pretty three-dimensional character even if he is horrifyingly skeevy.

Springing obvious traps, getting into easily-avoidable fights... this... this nostalgic feeling~!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Garr's got Sweeping Blow; between that and Gheth's Dragon Breath I don't expect to see another turn for Team Goblin.

Fresh urine is actually roughly PH neutral (assuming we don't get into the physiological difference between humans and changelings which I refuse to do). Enjoy your +4 vs Reflex, 1 damage (from broken glass).

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Shhhhhh if he wants to cover the sticky glob in chunks of broken glass let him do it

I was speaking idiomatically.

Yeah, you'd attack twice, you'd get counterattacked twice, and your ally would get a free attack twice.

(And the "risk" of the counterattacks is really kind of minimal since you have the highest AC in the party)

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Hmm. Unless it turns out be an issue let's just treat Bluff/Intimidate/Diplomacy as minor actions from now on, they don't really strike me as all that powerful anyway.

(and also you guys keep treating them as minor actions anyway)

How ya doing, buddy?

You can just declare it whenever you get hit, you don't need to ready it.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

But the goblin did leave a position adjacent to him (albeit in order to enter another position adjacent to him).

If you had just had him shift twice you could have got him to the same place safely, though.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Fine by me assuming nobody else steps up (and Zeph seems to piss off nearly as many people as you do, so...)

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Oh, I just figured everybody could just look them up in the shop section of Char Builder.

Just for clarity's sake:

Stag Helm

This helm sports a set of antlers and makes you as alert as a stag.

Level: 5
Price: 1,000 gp
Item Slot: Head

Property: Gain a +2 item bonus to passive Perception checks. Also, you can take a minor action during a round when you are surprised.


Flaying Gloves

These tight-fitting gloves allow you to deal bleeding wounds with a light blade.

Level: 4
Price: 840 gp
Item Slot: Hands
Power (Daily): Free Action. Use this power when you hit with a light blade melee attack and have combat advantage against the target. That attack deals an extra ongoing 5 damage (save ends). If the attack already deals ongoing damage of any type, this item’s power has no effect.


Jester Shoes

These colorful, pointed shoes help you stand out—but not stand up—in a crowd.

Level: 2
Price: 520 gp
Item Slot: Feet
Power (Encounter): Immediate Interrupt. Use this power when you are pushed, pulled, or slid. Reduce the distance you are pulled, pushed, or slided by 1 square and fall prone.


Phylactery of Action

When tied around your arm, this black leather box lets your mind or body escape restraint.

Level: 3
Price: 680 gp
Item Slot: Arms

Power (Encounter): No Action. Reroll a saving throw against any effect on you that applies one or more of these conditions: dazed, immobilized, petrified, restrained, or stunned. You must use the new result, even if it is lower.


Belt of Resilience

This common and well-worn belt aids those who aid you.

Level: 1
Price: 360 gp
Item Slot: Waist

Property: Heal checks made to aid you gain a +2 item bonus.


Potion of Clarity

This cool cyan liquid hones your physical and mental acuity at a critical moment.

Level: 5
Price: 50 gp
Potion
Power (Consumable): Minor Action. Once, before the end of the encounter, when you make an attack roll with an encounter or a daily attack power of 5th level or lower, you can reroll the attack roll but must use the second result.


Inferno Oil

Your weapon leaves behind a faint trace of oil, but it’s enough to set your enemy ablaze when it’s exposed to open flame.

Level: 5
Price: 50 gp
Alchemical Item
Power (Consumable): Standard Action. Apply inferno oil to your weapon or to one piece of ammunition. Make a secondary attack against the next creature you hit with the coated weapon or ammunition: +8 vs. Reflex; the target gains vulnerable 5 fire (save ends).


Onslaught Arrow

This black arrow trails a bright pennant, flagging its target.

Level: 2
Price: 25 gp
Ammunition
Enhancement: +1 attack rolls and damage rolls

Property: When you hit an enemy with an attack using this ammunition, each ally that can see that enemy gains a +1 item bonus to attack rolls against it until the end of your next turn.

Seeing as I'm going to be away from my computer for the next week and a half at least, chances for lethality in June are pretty bad (assuming Garr doesn't finally succumb to the alcohol poisoning he's been courting for a good long while now).

That being said, I'll be at Sass' place for the next few days leading up to the meet, and while I'll probably have some time to kill during the day I won't have access to my campaign files or Maptools so uh feel free to continue as normal and by normal I mean don't open any doors or fight anybody.

Once the meet starts of course I don't expect to be online at all unless it's to transfer potential blackmail materials onto Youtube. I'd open the door to guest DMs like I did last year but 60% of the party will be at the meet anyways so it'd be a little pointless.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

You guys know that if you let Zerg steer the boat all on his lonesome long enough, you eventually count as NPCs and become valid targets for his organ-harvesting, right?

Like, right now, he's trying to investigate a suspicious bit of architecture by shooting at it. We all remember how that went last time.

Somebody start a fight so I can determine if Skex is paying attention. Just attack the staircase or something. Maybe it's a mimic.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Yeah, we just generally assume that everybody in the party knows everything that anyone else in the party knows, because fuck keeping notes.

Zeph I need to know what you want Banana Ape to be intimidated into before I can take his turn

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Eh, none. The pedestal isn't tall enough to cause issue and I'm sure Cal can aim past a 2-inch-wide staff.

How ya doing, buddy?

July 2 was GFF D&D's 2nd anniversary!

But what does this mean for you?

First, it means that you level up after the gorilla battle thanks to a birthday bonus of 730 XP each!

Second, it means "wvlfpvp, send me a 7th-level character sheet; we're making this a sextet."

Third, it means a new game of Werewolf!

Okay, rolled for it and the yellow ape took 11 damage from it meaning that after Glenn's latest attack it's bloodied.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Silverback's dead as of Puyet's turn. (We'll assume Garrmondo delayed). SOMEBODY KILL THAT APE

Well, since the apes were from MM3 they had the new damage boost pre-applied and I added my houserule boost on top of that. It seemed like a reasonable challenge for an encounter I literally threw together in 5 minutes to get Skex's attention.

You must remember that I am (honest!) trying to murder you, whereas the official rules only want to provide the illusion of murderousness. I wrote an ill-conceived analogy here about masseuses vs. prostitutes and then erased it!

I'll apply the level up changes once Garr responds with his choices.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

MP2 and the two race books (dragonborn / tiefling) added to OP.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Ehhhh, three weeks is a long time but you're covered and we're rotating someone in sans death anyways so don't sweat it.

That's kind of down to when he gets his character to me. Either route will have opportunities to write him in, but if wvlf has an opinion he's welcome to pipe up.

FELIPE NO

There are several shades of grey between "Bears have been sent to your house to eat you" and "go ahead and poke that bear with a stick; it's vegetarian".

Nobody's seen her since she went over to your house a couple days ago

You know anything about that

Yes, it's a legendary and powerful artifact, on the opposite side of a pane of unbreakable glass.

Can you think of anything crueler to do to Zerg?
