<Trickery makes the invincible vincible. I remember this one time Uncle managed to punch out a god. A minor god, but still.>
<Boo hoo. It seems like someone takes down a god every other month where I'm from. Sometimes not even a superpowered person. Anyways, if they're ever vincible, they're never invincible.>
<No one cares!>
<Do demons have periods? 'Cause you seem to be on one right now...>
Angel twitches violently.

So? It's the right scale, give or take an order of magnitude or so.

I get the feeling you weren't as overpowered as I originally thought...

Maybe I shouldn't have set the average encounter to somewhere around CR 9?
...
No, you shouldn't have. Why would you do that?
I thought you were all crazy overpowered and had seven people. That brings your effective party level up to around nine.
1. Even if we had eight, that would only be double, putting us around 8.
2. Me? Overpowered? My druids get beaten up by typical monks.
3. One powerful enemy is not a good solution for a large party. I'd cite a WotC article on the subject, but I can't find it. Basically, the problem is that it swiftly becomes difficult for anyone to survive or hit it, let along kill it without being killed. A better solution is--perhaps unsurprisingly--to provide more enemies. Sending two of these smoke things instead of one advanced one would be better. (Or three, if you really wanted EL 9.)

I shall role up another character. That was a joke, I don't expect you to apply Paranoia rules here. There was something in the Paranoia XP SP1 about what if Popular Fantasy Roleplaying Game™ were like Paranoia.
Which reminds me, what happened to that Paranoia game Remuthra was going to run?
Still waiting on applications.
Ah. Who are the Commie mutant traitors who have failed to return their character applications?

...HOW IS THIS CR9?!
The normal one is CR 6. I scaled it up using a program, which said that 13d8 is CR 8. Thus, 15d8 is CR 9 or so.
...
How many HD normally (guessing 7?) and what type is it?
7, and Elemental.
[/quote]
Ah. Well, um...hate to say it, but elementals get +1 CR per 4 HD. So, unless, it increased in size (+1 CR), it would need a total of 19 HD to be CR 9. If it increased in size, then you need another 8, which takes it to...it increased size, didn't it?

Necromancy!
+1 If we take the book, might as well learn about what we can do with it, with less risk of getting caught
+1. Also:

"How are you over two centuries old?"

"They are metaphysical abilities that are granted to us under immense physical or mental trauma, as for where they come from isnt it obvious?

They dont obey any of our niverses laws of physics so they must logically be coming from another."
The oracle considers this.
"Maybe. All I know about it is what I see in my visions, and they tell me that the powers came from the Holy City and the Five Horsemen, and we are their Chosen. But where do they get their powers from? Could it be from elsewhere? ...The visions do not suggest such."
He shrugs.
"What were we talking about again?"

((In case the poll doesn't tell you Gold, I've no idea how they work, I have read the extra content.  Also, due to mostly lurking during my time on various forums, I am uncertain when it is considered polite to bump the thread.  Please advise.))
((Nice timing. I was partway through the above bit, then got distracted, then you posted, then I returned.))

Still likely forgotten in the calculation at any rate :P
If he just added HD, by the rules the save-or-die ability doesn't change the CR modification.
On the other hand, he shouldn't have sent us against a version with twice the hit points plus higher attack bonuses and stuff...

Waiting on Weirdsound. I'll go ahead and take the mist's turn, though.

The demonic smoke creature swoops down upon Emriro, clawing and gnashing furiously! Its wings buffet him to the ground, its claws cut his chest open easily, as though it were tissue paper, and his diving maw rips out the unfortunate spellcaster's heart. Swooping over the now-vanished wall, it dissolves into mist and surrounds the Darfellan.
27, hit, 11 damage
23, hit, 7 damage
33, crit threat, 29, confirmed, 16 damage
28, hit, 4 damage
23, hit, 4 damage
Total: 42 damage.

Kre!aqil needs to make a Fortitude Save: 13. You breathe in the thick smoke, and feel the claws scratching about within your innards. You take 9 damage.

Seldain gets an attack of opportunity as the fiend moves away.

Surrah makes another Fortitude Save: 12. The claws burrow deeper into her chest, and she takes 8 damage.

((Whoops.))
...
That's more attacks than an evil tree!
Fortitude is my second-best save by one point, this shouldn't be too bad.
[20+7!]
Kre!aqil barely reacts to being reduced to -2 hit points. Aside from falling unconscious. Because he only had 40 hit points. Oh, wait, that 42 damage wasn't me. Kre!aqil doesn't react.

Didn't Remuthra say this was supposed to be one of the easy encounters?!?

>Sleeping with a, as you people call it, 'wannabe' of a mastermind world conqueror is not a good thing.>
<Actually, it might be a good idea. If he succeeds-->
<If you finish that sentence with Meme still on the line, I can't be blamed for what Stella and I do to you.>
<Ooh, the half-dragon and the nerd! I'm sooo scared!>
<...>

>The last time I gave something the benefit of the doubt, it happened to be the Nemean Lion.
Took Herakles a damn while to kill the monster, and not before it killed half the women in Nemea, and half my men.
Tis a shame Anima didn't catch his soul before he reincarnated, though. Would have been pretty nice to have an invincible lion as a pet.<
<Not to question the moral, but...if it was killed, how is it invincible?>



Class continues. Is anything going to happen, or will today be one of the fairly normal days? Well, fairly normal for most people, weird for the magic girls and boy. And the superheroes. And Meme.

Selina isn't sure what to ask with Lina a lot of the time.
((I'm sure Nuriel could come up with some ideas...
"Why are you picking on me? I've gone through some character development, idiot."))

Grace stops and her sheeps glow green " I am the bone of my sword, Enlarge weapon!"
((...Huh. I expected that it would be harder to resist making a bad joke.))

Have fun
 With your gun.
Darkness rising
 Better run
Wait, gun? No no no. Think more like "hockey rink packed full of explosives".

Probably.

"Ooh.. I'm gonna call it Cherubim!" She says with a very soft inflection, as if it was pronounced "Sherubim."
Eh. According to Wikipedia, this:
Quote from: Ezekiel 1:5-6
Within it there were figures resembling four living beings. And this was their appearance: they had human form. Each of them had four faces and four wings...
is a cherub. Also, "cherubim" is plural.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Eh, he doesn't seem to much like RP-heavy games. He enjoys the minimalists and the Perplexicon genre, but things like ER and...well, your attempted "game" aren't really his style.
