I can't wait until Selina gets back.
"Hey, Selina, could you pull out this laser rifle?"
(He would, of course, use a copy of the blueprints. And probably color it in some.)

You're a theist, you just don't worship. I... guess?><The way I look at it, being a theist means you actually worship a god. Besides, theism implies religion of some sort, which implies belief in something without proof. Awful hard to be religious when you've had a nice chat with God.>
((Naytheist, because they acknowledge that you exist but refuse to worship you because you're a bitch.))<She's not a bitch, she just has issues. A lot of them. Besides, naytheists would be people who deny the existence of God despite having met Her. You're describing something more like antitheism.>
((Ah, Darnos.))
Kyle begins drawing up plans for a laser rifle to show that he can do it better than Selina.((This should be funny if Selina gets back before you finish.))
Kyle frowns and... throws the damn thing out the window because it obviously is a very poorly crafted gun.Will catches it. (He was outside last we saw.)
"Interesting. Kyle's an idiot, though."
"Greetings, Qi. I am William Warren, better known as Will."

« on: December 24, 2013, 12:04:53 pm »Nope. The way it is in the book is that it increases your ECL.Same difference, honestly. >___< I think how I put it is how they word it in the books, but that's basically the effect.Actually, looking at at the OP I'm not seeing a LA restriction. Doesn't it just make you level up slower? Also they get nerfed a bit by the houserules (no polymorph/etc.)No, it makes you level up the same speed but have fewer levels.

« on: December 24, 2013, 11:53:41 am »Depends on the type of mining.Well, it's the city and the mountain. So not very big. But having a lake was a concern because I wasn't sure how to simulate the effect of a massive mining operation on the lake. So I am going to go with just a river, no lake.So it turns out that world build is not easy and takes more than a few hours to decide whether or not to have a lake.Only one? How big is this map? England? Europe? Eurasia? What?
EDITEDIT:Ranged weapons are pretty underpowered compared to melee weapons in core. And, of course, both pale in comparison to casters.Quote• If you have at least 4 BAB, you can Precise Shot with any ranged weapon you are proficient in and are treated as if you have the Point Blank Shot feat without actually taking it. Also see feat section.Is broken?
We have a wizard, a bard, and a monk. Probably a rogue, too. We have the skillmonkey, the mage, a support guy, and whatever the monk is supposed to be.
I'll take a druid.

It's a cult of crazies that think they're vampires.I dunno about the small creatures, but that sounds a lot like adolescence.
Reports have been popping up of children being kidnapped and replaced with beings that eat without end by small creatures that glow slightly.

« on: December 24, 2013, 11:23:42 am »As to the first: No, it isn't. Mainly because you don't care about extra cutting nerves or veins when butchering, and because you're trying to cut things apart rather than open, and because you need to do stuff once you are in the body. It would be better if you were trained in autopsies.Why not? Surgery is just butchering somebody without killing them and some of the effects of the poisons are beneficial to a patient if they survive."I'll volunteer for chief medical human because I know how to make some poisons and I have some experience with butchering"I don't feel comfortable with you being a doctor. Or a nurse. Or anywhere near the medical areas, really."
2. Big if.
3. When your only qualifications are something that kills people and something you only do to dead things, I would rather have an unqualified doctor.

« on: December 24, 2013, 12:29:04 am »So. Probably the latter.Ciro levitated there and took the ridiculously damaged hit. No dice roll for the attack either. FFS stated the rolls are required for acts of resistance, meaning Ciro didn't resist the attack.But what happens to the body of Ciro without the SoulOfTheTarget/NarrativeControl?What happened for the one round he was alive last time we did it?
Would Ciro continue without hesitation on the current objective, or would the body become limp and useless?
If we had enough for everyone to have one? Sure. But since we don't, let's give one to two of the three characters likeliest to be around next chapter.More like I'm thinking that we don't know who is going to be in the party from one chapter to the next, not even the main character. Better to spread those inventory slots around!What, you think that switching perspective to Goom-Bess before she runs is likelier than not doing so?You say that like we don't have the power to shift perspectives for extended (and possibly indefinite) periods of time!Also stop hatin' on Goombess just because she's a merc, since when do we play by the rules of this place? We're totally gonna morph her into some kind of awesome monster, may as well be a monster with some pocket room. Plus, shipping grid calibration (the size of their hearts grew two sizes that day!)And if we don't? Let's face it, those inventory slots are going to be used to carry random loot between Storage units. They might as well be on someone we know 100% won't run.

Snoop Dog was recruited by the CIA for a secret mission to infiltrate a Colombian drug cartel.
The "rational" explanation was stranger than the apparent situation.
