[DnD] Let's Cast Magic Missile!

Ah, I see. So they don't have to worry about it for a while. Will be interesting to see what happens if they run out of sunrods without finding any illumination. Although I guess as long as Bob is around they'll have some light. I have no idea how much though because I have not read that skills description.

FELIPE NO

The light cantrip only has a 4-square radius, so if they run out of rods they'll just have to cluster tightly around Bob like the meatshields they are.

Indeed so!

The dwarf roared in pain as the fire engulfed him. The flames blistered his skin, singed his beard and heated his armour.



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

Where in the hell did you find that? That's fucking brilliant.

How ya doing, buddy?

Damage via misadventure? How's that work?

And those goblins sure take a beating.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Read as: "as a direct consequence of being dumb as fuck". Knives, axe, boot to the head.

I have to mix it up a little, since the smart thing for the goblins to do would be just to sit on the other end of the room and spit javelins at you all day. Boring.

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

Goblins have feelings too, you know. They're not just soulless calculating machines. =/

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

And one would imagine that eventually, they'd run out of javelins, unless we started throwing them back of course.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Oh, I just got that the thing in front of the northern door is a spent javelin.

I gotta say, Pang, you're doing a great job with the atmosphere.

How ya doing, buddy?

All right, I'm a bail for about six hours, and then I'll be back for a bit.

Take it easy.

NEXT DAY EDIT:

Dropped my track. Now I'm off to play footy for a couple hours before work. I should be able to post again before I leave for the pub tonight if we get around to it.

FELIPE NO

HELLO THERE, VARIOUS LURKERS

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

I know I clicked on it at least twice...

Funny how Bob rolled last in the previous round, and this time he's first.

Most amazing jew boots

If that goblin doesn't die soon, I'm going to run out of movies to quote.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Looking over the player's guide has given me a few ideas about my character, but I want to ask in the interests of practicality and fun factor: would it be too much hassle to make my character mute?

I think it would be interesting to see a "leader" character who doesn't speak, but it might cause problems down the line.

Has anyone tried this personally?

I've pretty much decided that even if he's not mute, I'm going to cripple his charisma to buff strength and wisdom.

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

Well, having a Cleric who's unable to speak puts a crimp on a few things; a lot of the cleric powers involve spoken prayers. If you can work around that limitation I don't see a problem with it; if we can deal with a fighter with no weapons, we can accept a cleric who can't pray.

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

Dysfunctional to the max, eh guys?

I was speaking idiomatically.

A wizard who dresses like a woman. A dwarf who quotes movies. Aren't we a team to remember.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I was thinking along the lines of a monkish Cleric who uses a staff (with holy symbol headpiece, of course.)

I could swing either way, though. A very reserved Cleric works pretty much the same as a mute one for my purposes. I thought it might be funny to see what happens when the more...boisterous heroes don't see Silent Bob motioning them to wait while he inspects the trap door.

Hard to say for sure since I am not the DM, but I have a feeling Shin forgot that no one speaks goblin.

Anyways, how does one determine passive insight and passive perception? The page the character sheet chapter refers to just talks about how passive checks work. Are they both just 10 plus any applicable modifiers?

How ya doing, buddy?

As Pang pointed out, there's a lot of that in the 4th edition manual.

"Thing A is used here."

"How do I figure out thing A?"

"We don't know. LULZ."

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Alright, that battle's finally over. Sorry it took so long, the dice just seemed intent on drawing out the clean-up as long as possible. Kill, Kill, Kill, FUCK THIS BUG IS INVINCIBLE

Yeah, your Passives are just 10 + whatever your total bonus to that skill is. 2 points in Insight yields a Passive Insight of 12, etc.

The dice favors Argumentus. verily

Also I can't seem to update my character sheet, each time I edit the value of the xp it reverts back to the original, despite saving. What's up with that?

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

That's strange, it's working perfect over here. Are you using Adobe Reader 8?

All right, off for the night. Take it easy, hepcats.

I bet this is the issue. Going to bed be back on that in the morn.

Additional Spam:
That was precisely the issue.

I have posted something that could well end poorly. We shall see.

Off to work, catch up on the chaos when I get home later.
