The first one nearly skins the creature...
((Um...do you my any chance mean merely skins the creature or something? Maybe skims or something, instead of skins?))

Charge at them. Attack a beast that is near enough to Selina to attack with the blades on my exoskeleton.

My point was more that he should have to deal with stats he doesn't like if the rest of us do. Not that I'd mind being allowed to reroll some of my stats...
Indeed. That's second edition :P.
I find it absolute hilarious/slightly disheartening that people are wanting to have such ridiculously high stats. They think that if you have a single stat under 10, you suck and deserve to die.
I have a 5 for strength. I could literally only lift 10 pounds before taking a penalty. Half of my stats are under 10, and I love it. I love having flawed characters because it's more fun.
Losing is fun.
It would be nice if I was flawed in the things that I don't need instead of mildly incompetent in the things I need.
And heck, it's not even like I'm that flawed. I mean, below-average Wisdom and low Charisma, plus above-average physical stats? Alexander is a bit short-sighted*, and sucks at people stuff, and he's kinda mediocre overall, but that's about it. If I'm flawed, can I at least have interesting flaws? I need to write an inferiority complex into him to be as interesting as some of the more extreme characters can get!
TL;DR: It's not the presence of flaws that bugs me, more their location.

*Ironic, because I named him after one of my dad's characters who was even cleverer than most tended to be.

Strangely, that frees you up quite a bit. Everyone else is pressured to get the most done every round. You can afford to be the guy who opens the door to let everyone in, or closes it to keep the monsters out. There could be a lot of combat opportunities that don't involve making attack rolls. Just being there to stop the monsters from flooding around and surrounding the party is meaningful.
I'm giggling a bit inside just imagining how my cantrip could help. Especially since it's evidently a hybrid of 1st ed cantrip and 3.5 ed prestidigitation...

"We need to kill them because they're attacking us, you idiot!"

((Joyce isn't near angel yet))
((Wasn't she talking with Selina, who is holding Angel's hand?))

Yes.

((... oh well so what does everyone suggest happen to the manipulators, considering they were self bought?))
((Grate would probably appreciate the ability to not suck.

Speaking of which, he's planning to help with the amp user if anyone lets him have a useful weapon. Anyone have spare heavy ordinance that they are willing to lend to the HMRC's youngest member?))

Roll To Dodge / Re: Dino Arena - Round 2 Turn 7 - Heads or Tails? Yes.

Attack the body.

Einsteinian Roulette / Re: Einsteinian Roulette mission 11: MAYDAY
« on: November 15, 2013, 04:11:19 pm »
When it comes to Xan, I intend to wait till I can find a psychic, and then pump said psychic full of all the gene stuff. Grate, I dunno, could be any time. Feyri too.
((I'm on Steam, but if it costs you money to gift it, don't bother.))
I think you can gift your own games to other people for free.
((Oh. Sweet. Yeah, if you can do that that would be great. Do you have/want Galactic Civilizations, by any chance? ...Or a quick description of how to do this game-gifting thing?))

Keep following lars.
"O Captain! My Captain! our fearful trip is done;
The ship has weather'd every rack, the prize we sought is won;
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring:"
((...Blanking on some clever reference. Dead Poet's Society.))

You check your rifle. 7 of 10 bullets remaining. Not a lot, but enough to kill 7 teammates Enemies.
((...He has to remind himself not to kill teammates...mind control?))

STEPHEN HAWKING invents helping.
((Didn't he already do that?))

Amper located, he's in a big room beneath the nuked crater. If anyone's in a position to help, it would be greatly appreciated. Be warned, he's extremely dangerous, don't come alone or unprepared.
"Hm..."
Try to locate some kind of clever weapon that isn't in use and that no one cares about--say, one that someone is willing to lend Grate--and someone else heading to the amp user. Once both are located, head to the amp user, quietly and stealthily. And hopefully not-dying-y.
Maybe this:
((Does a gauss rifle count as heavy ordnance?))
((Did it have its guts ripped out to make an electrolaser? If not, it's a ton heavier than what Grate has.))
((No, it didn't. Ask and ye shall receive, Anton has both another weapon, and an MFM to keep him armed.))

((Ahaha I hate you.))

"Sorry, May, I don't know what came over me. One moment, please."
Execute whatever die rolled that horrible overshot as an example to the others.
"Now then. Terribly sorry. Um, you might want to call your Pokemon back before they get completely destroyed. Also, is there, um, anything I can do to make this up to you? I'm pretty good at surviving here, if you feel you need protection. I'd be better than that crazy guy who's talking to himself."
Ask. Protect self and May if needed. It had better not be.

I whisper in Harold's ear.
"I dunno what you were doing, I told her to quit being such a Snorlax."
Nice, you totally got him slapped.
Also, punch him. In the face, ideally. Don't injure him severely, just make him hurt. Injure him to the full extent of the dice.

((Let us have a moment of silence for Michael. Yes, we know Stephen Hawking invented silence. Shut up.))
