Got a fancy expensive phone (Galaxy S7), turns out it's completely locked down chipset so I can't install google apps, which this phone does not come with because China.

Now I'll have to go through the refund process, if it's even refundable since I already opened it

Two years.. so long ago...

This is kindof a letdown

Due to unforeseen circumstances, I don't think I can have a session tomorrow.


*unforeseen circumstances = my glasses broke and I have to go get a replacement tomorrow afternoon

I used to draw things in Paint and come up with stories about what was going on, like filling in half the canvas with brown and then making little tunnels with the eraser and pretend it was moles digging out a home or something.

You know, I thought I was the only person who ever did crap like that. I'd pretend it was ants though, I think.

I did this too! For me, it was drawing little spaceship skirmishes and sci fi adventures in Paintbrush (MSPaint for Windows3.1, on my Grandpa's old IBM).

I did the same thing, but with GeoPaint on the C64. I remember having to erase my picture s when they reached the colossal size of a kilobyte.

add another one onto the pile, MSpaint on win95!

End of session! 1000 XP to all involved.

(...Considering the fact that so far you have met only one non-mindless enemy, the Elemental, I am not sure this chest was that helpful)

TL;DR of session: The party spends a ton of magic scrolls, even summoning a Hound Archon and a Chaotic Good outsider to bring down a gigantic Outsider. However, the poor Outsider is killed during the combat. "Let's not do that again," remarked Bernard

It's definitely not a limit of pixel art to stick with a single face shape, just a general Art Fluency thing.

Err, I was talking about the 'realistic' portrait versions, not the originals... It's more obvious when there's more detail.

Finalized to be a Warforged Warblade, character name TBA.

Here are Nightly's characters starting scrolls. Since they have put zero points into UMD or Spellcraft, Bernard or BWOF may prefer to take them. Also, I shared a note with the scrolls on it with everyone in roll20.


​A feather-light scroll that has the spell Capricious Zephyr inscribed on it.
  - A ball of air pushes targets around and trips them: bullrush (+6) to trip
  - Lasts for 5 rounds, can be directed
A rock tablet with the spell Spike Stones on it.
  - Seven squares turn into spiked stones that must be moved through at half speed. Also deal 1d8 spikey damage.
The spell Languor on a scroll.
  - Give a 1d6+7 STR penalty with a ray attack for 7 rounds. Additionally, will save DC 18 or be Slowed.
The spell Boneblade on a sinister-looking scroll with endcaps made of bone.
  - Turn a long bone into a +2 longsword made of BONE. Deals +1d6 to living targets and +1d6 to Good ones. Blade lasts for 20 minutes.

Additionally, I wanted to give out a couple more scrolls as loot during the session but it takes quite a bit of time to do so, so here's three more scrolls each for Bernard and BFOW.

Bernard:

A large sand-colored scroll of Summon Desert Ally 9: Summon a 9th level desert creature for 17 rounds (two minutes).
A scroll of Eagle's Spendor: +4 to Charisma for 3 minutes. (SL2)
A scroll etched into raw hide. Bite of the Wereboar: Partially shapeshift into a wereboar, gaining +4 Str, +6 Con, +8 Natural Armor for 7 rounds. (SL4)

BFOW:

A small, brilliant bright scroll of Moonbolt: 2d4 Strength damage to a target; if it is an undead, it is made helpless. (SL4)
A scroll with very dense lettering, of Replicate Casting: Can copy any spell or spell-like ability you see, as if your caster level were 17. (SL9)
A scroll of Lesser Planar Ally
