DND Ashren OOC
Ask your questions here.
As to your last question. If you want me to use a certain skill with your action lemme know what that skill is and what the bonus is and I will use it instead of using my judgement to what skill goes along with what your doing.

Re: DND Ashren OOC
Ok, my backstory is complete including my "holy symbol", which is a simple crown made from a single branch.
Also, when I say my skin is bronze, Im meaning something like this
from the neck down obviously.
I am repeating my question from the other thread: I just noticed that the sheet contains a character traits/flaws section. Are we using this? And if so how would picking these work?

Re: DND Ashren OOC
What should I say? I just did a strength check and it became a 20, let alone the +3 bonus I got anyway. XD

Re: DND Ashren OOC
My thought was to provide the initial distraction for the group with a reasonable excuse.
Given their numbers and our lack of equipment, I dont think now is the time to stage a coup. But we certainly could set the conditions for a later fight right now. That is what I was trying to help do basically. Also, Bob hasn't posted anything so we should give him a chance to act as well.
Can we even talk about such things in here? Is it ok to like talk about what we are doing so that the other players understand our motives and then just keep that separate from player knowledge? If we can I think it might be wise to do so because it seems that once Jacon updates, stated actions are final, but if we discuss what everyone is thinking in here first we can make sure to post more cooperatively.
Also are we allowed to make our own rolls for things, or do you just roll for us (I would prefer the latter at least until I know what I am doing)? And Im still wondering about traits/flaws.
If needed I can make another IC post in about 5hrs but probably not really before.
Thanks

Re: DND Ashren OOC
Here is my char, as it has not been perma-linked yet:
http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheetview.p ... tid=735725
and also a list of cleric spells (got level 0 and 1 so far)
http://www.systemreferencedocuments.org ... pells.html
I can cast a level 1 fog-spell to create some mist or summon a monster, giving us some time to free those who cannot free themselves.
I also still got my natural weapons, two 1d4 claws. Thanks to my strength, they are even 2x(1d4+3) which can deal 8-14 damage without any crit.
I got the strength and healing domain, so I can increase my strength by 1 (cleric level, so more after levelup) and enlarge one person (anybody, not only myself).
I would wait a bit and see how they behave, on the other hand I just got my hands free.
If we wait, I think I might purify our food and drinks, don't want to get sick by it.

Re: DND Ashren OOC
It can be made permanent with a permanency spell
Edit* it's a level 5 spell and cost 500 xp to get enlarge person made permanent

Re: DND Ashren OOC
But only a wizzard or sorcerer can do it and as far as I know we aren't allowed to have them, or was that changed?

Only sorcerers are prohibited, and Bob plays a wizard specialised in conjuring

Re: DND Ashren OOC
It was kind of a joke, but I will think about it.
Sorry if kind of jumped the gun by trying to care for people's feet. I'm not trying to be like the party leader or anything, but Im kind of not sure how to play it since Tokryn is a paladin and he is going to have a tendency to be sort of out front at times.
You guys let me know how we can best handle this as we go along.
Thanks

Re: DND Ashren OOC
Well, my character completely misread the situation and thinks your trying to make a break for it...
I suppose making the half-elf big would break the cage...or the goblin could just knock it over if made large...

Re: DND Ashren OOC
So since I'm a conjurer and that, I thought my daily could be that I can summon something much stronger than the normal summons. How about a summon monster-like ability, that spawns triple amount of summons and for triple more time from the highest level of summon available for me, or something of the like?

Re: DND Ashren OOC
I would suggesting asking Jacon for a boost on all summoning spells as strong as he would allow it for a daily.
Maybe like Hitdice of summoned monster times X, or cast with level +X, something like that.
Then the rest comes automatically from the rules, and you don't have to formulate the conditions so exactly.
A higher number of monsters can sometimes be a weaker result than one with their combined hit dice for example, so I would not formulate. And it can depend on the situation. Sometimes swarming is the best, sometimes one strong hulk. Flexibility often triumphs over strong spells in D&D.

Re: DND Ashren OOC
It's fine to discuss plans on this thread.
Flaws and traits are just fluff for now. Their is a machanic for that kind of thing but I don't know it.
If you want a summoning daily might I suggest being able to cast a summoning spell two times above your caster level. ( For instance being able to cast summon monster 3 now at 1st level.)
I might have to tamper with it later on if it's to powerful but it's a starting idea and we could see how it goes.

Re: DND Ashren OOC
Thanks for the info Jacon.
What about rolling for checks and stuff. Do we do that or would you prefer to? Or would you prefer us to? Let me know.

Re: DND Ashren OOC
It's up to you. If you do just let me know what the numbers were. ( 13+4=17 etc.)
If you want me to roll for you just let me know what check you want rolled.

Re: DND Ashren OOC
Ok thanks.
I plan on approaching the human to appeal his decision to not let me tend to the elf. But I will post that IC as soon as I can.
Well....I guess we are doing this now. I will not act first, but I will act once everyone else does.

Re: DND Ashren OOC
I was thinking about that, but than, when (and if ) I reach 9th level spells, this becomes pretty useless. Even though I guess that on level 17 you are powerful enough and don't really need dailies.Jacon wrote:It's fine to discuss plans on this thread.

Team Ashen...
When you absolutely need complete shenanigans to be caused!
PS - I added a pic to my sheet. Its close enough except for the fact Tokryn doesnt have hair or use bows.

Re: DND Ashren OOC
So our situation currently is this, trying to summarize it:
Tokryn (goblin paladin): free from shakles, but guarded by one hobgoblin (1 of 4).
Kaliss (troglodyte cleric): free from shakles, but one hobgoblin guard approaching with new rope shakles (2 of 4). Two more are maybe watching him. (3+4 of 4)
Cade (halfling rogue): still shackled wit ropes, trying to free himself this turn with a sharp rock. Not guarded right now, but might draw attention soon.
Adrena (halfelf duskblade): still trapped in the cage, trying to fake-faint. Not guarded right now. Not sure if fainting might draw attention or help her get rid of it.
Gendalr (human wizard): still shackled wit ropes. Not guarded right now, but trying to draw attention from what Cade is doing.
Enemies:
1 human, fat, leader of the slavers, mace, wooden shield, chainmail.
1 scruffy hobgoblin guard, maybe some kind of sergeant. rusty long sword.
3 hobgoblin guards. rusty long swords.
