I think I have this right: Klale is +14 +1 +1 on attack, and +14 +1 on damage. I can take a 15 for an attack roll. I can subtract up to ten from my attack and add to damage. 15+17 = 32 to Attack. I can make it 15+7 and always have a 20+.
Based on that:
21:46, Today: Klale Tsolo rolled 12 using 2d10 with rolls of 2,10. Damages.
2 + 10 +1 = 13 Damage
10 + 10 + 1 = 21 Damage
I'll caveat all this with "Eru will need verify everything I am saying is correct", but here is how I understand damage is calculated.
There are a couple rules that could throw a curve ball into the formula, but...
Melee damage should be: weapon damage + STR bonus + misc. modifiers (stuff like feats, spell effects, etc)
Two-handed weapons give a modest boost to damage for both strength bonus and power attack.

http://www.d20srd.org/srd/feats.htm#powerAttack
If using a 1-handed weapon w/power attack:
- weapon damage + STR bonus + power attack bonus
If using a 2-handed weapon w/power attack:
- weapon damage + (STR bonus *1.5) + (power attack bonus *2)
So, if we were to pretend you were a troll with a 30 STR, attacking with a 2-handed weapon, using power attack 10, then it ought to look something like this:
- weapon damage + 15 (10 * 1.5) + 20 (10 * 2) = weapon damage + 35
Depending on how much STR you ended up with after Nestaels blessing, you might be doing some pretty super human damage!
