[DnD] Let's Cast Magic Missile!

Pang, can you link me to somewhere that explains what we can get when we level up please?

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Two minor notes: Gabriel's speed was reduced to 4 due to his decision to wear chainmail, should have noticed that earlier but I don't think it's been relevant. Also, I'll be keeping track of Bob's ritual components henceforth so keep in mind that he has no reagents at the moment to cast Comprehend Languages.

The experience values for each level are pretty simple, you just take the previous level, add three zeros, and add that to the previous requirement to get the new one.

Example: For level 2 you require 1000 experience, for level 3 you require 3000, for level 4 6000, etc. Savy?

Edit: Unless, of course, they've drastically changed it from edition 3.5, which while I find doubtful is definitely possible.

GABRIEL'S LEVEL UP BONANZA. EVERYTHING MUST GO.

Retrain Fearsome Smite to Radiant Smite.

Level 2 Utility choice: Sacred Circle

Level 2 Feat choice: Dwarven Proficiency (hammers and axes... given that I think my current one only covers hammers.)

Anything else I need to sort out, Pang?

P.S.

Why do I lose pace with my encumbered Speed racial trait?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Doesn't he still move at 5 because of the "Encumbered Speed" Dwarven racial trait?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

You guys are right. Retract that notice, yeah =(

You're sorted, Deni. Thanks.

Brady, here's your up-to-date charsheet and your Unstoppable reference card.

Deni, your sheet, your Radiant Smite card, and your Sacred Circle card.

knk, your sheet and your Shake It Off card.

FELIPE NO

Exit stage left for Fescue. Very nice, Pang.

How ya doing, buddy?

Bob will take Shield and Burning Blizzard as his spell and feat please. Also, I'd like to swap Gentle Repose for something else. Are there any once-per-encounter healing of stat modifying things Bob could have instead?

The reagents needed for Comprehend Languages is 10gp, I'm sure someone will loan him that if need be...

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Well yes, it'd be cheap enough if there were any, you know, merchants about.

You can't just go about swapping rituals willy-nilly since, strictly speaking, your ritual book is part of your inventory and not your character per se (though your class does give you free rituals; it's a bit convoluted). Which is to say there's nothing stopping you just finding a new ritual.

There aren't really any rituals that do what you've described anyway. If rituals were any good in a fight they wouldn't be rituals.

Anyway, here's your updated charsheet and Shield reference card.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Ah, I see, that makes more sense now. I didn't realise there was such a distinction between the types of spells, I had ssumed you just picked a bunch of spells and some happened to be rituals, some dailys and so on. Let's hope we find a shop soon eh!

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

Well, now that Fescue's squared away...

Lurker, I should be able to arbitrarily insert your character into what passes for a plot around here during the next day or two. Here's your character packet; take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with your options and ask any questions you might have.

EDIT: Updated as of 10 AM friday with you know uh a bunch of previously-missing abilities oh hee hee hee

Most amazing jew boots

knk and Brady are adorable =)

I was speaking idiomatically.

Aw, lurky is not starting at level 2?

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Lurk's character is Lv2. Whatchu talkin' about, Zerg?

I am beginning to think Motsognir will never get any gear unless I have a monster throw it directly at him. "They're gaining on us! Throw the magic rings at them! Aim for the eyes!"

Apologies for butting my big head in then, thanks for setting me straight~

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

Not according to her character sheet.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

It would appear Pang updated all of her stats to level 2 except the "1" in the level box.

Also, awwww.... teensy little halfling. She should ride into battle on Argumentus' shoulders.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

"Him Blaster. Me Master."

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

Hey knk, look on the bright side. Every time you use your Commander's Strike ability to make Argumentus hit something, the attack gets the bonus of the bracers.

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

That's honestly why I made sure to get them, since +2 damage won't matter if they can't hit anything, sorry fellas. vv
