Dibs on Haazheel's spell! Please charm my bow. I'd hate for my good die rolls so far to go to waste.

Re: Out of Character Discussion (Walking Softly)

We could edit our descriptions when we get something magical that everyone else knows about to keep track of who can do what.

It's always nice to be able to reference the descriptions to see what a character is wearing and obviously carrying.  We don't need an inventory of everyone's pockets but we could probably see that Volsh is carrying a spear or that Breunor is wearing a toga.

Re: Out of Character Discussion (Walking Softly)

I probably would have known better if I had been around longer.

As a new player it is hard to know what others have gained. I figured at level 2 there was a good chance no one had a magic weapon. And was wrong. :)

In reply to Haazheel Thorn (msg # 966):

OOOH and how wrong you were... our kind DM gave us a bunch of magic stuff. I got a wonderful necklace that helps me to see in the dark (Which also makes my eyes shiny blue) and an bracelet that let's me breath underwater.

Though it might be a good idea to make a thread like that... just what people can see

Re: Out of Character Discussion (Walking Softly)

I'm of the opinion that:

1. Magic weapons don't often show up until they're a little redundant - i.e. when everyone can afford one, finding isn't special.

2. Magic items are fun.  And they don't have to be game-breaking to be fun.

If no one else gets around to it, I'll try to dig up our magical treasure in the next couple of days.

Also, we have to start a new thread soon, 'cause we're about to hit the post limit on this one.  That is also something I'll do in the next couple of days here.

Re: Out of Character Discussion (Walking Softly)

Rather than a new thread for who has what magic item, if it's known, they can add it to their
"Character Description".  Then folks don't have to search a thread, just click on the "Cast" and then the character they want to look at to see what they're using.

Re: Out of Character Discussion (Walking Softly)

That works. It also helps when casting spells that have typed bonuses. There are times when it would benefit one over another deflection, resistance, etc...

Also remember that we've been "Blessed" by the Stone Tree for this encounter when you're swinging.

+1 to hit and +1 save vs fear.

In-laws are in town from out of the country (came on on Thursday) - will be incommunicado until Tuesday night, late!

Re: Out of Character Discussion (Walking Softly)

We're level 2??? Hmmm... (read, read, read). My spells are right, my HP is right, skill points are right, just my level and XP are wrong.

DM, please advise me on my current XP when you're finished with your visit with the in-laws. Thank you!

Sudden unexpected internet connection, Batman!

Narthian, should be 1000 XP, last time I checked.  We'll be racking up some more here once we resolve this crow-foe.

Re: Out of Character Discussion (Walking Softly)

Narthian, see msg #20 in Redhaven, a soldier's town. Narthian & Averdante had the arrowheads put on bows while they were in town. :)

The arrowheads were described as "silvery arrowheads inscribed with more moon symbols." Dante found them in a secret compartment in a sarcophagus with his moonbow, and shared half of the clearly enchanted arrowheads with Narthian, the pair of them being the primary archers in the group at the time.

Re: Out of Character Discussion (Walking Softly)

Cool, thanks. They were never marked on Narthian's character sheet, so I have fixed that much. And at least I will confirm if they are magical. :)

Re: Out of Character Discussion (Walking Softly)

Considering they were found shiny as new, untarnished, despite having been entombed over half a millenium... yeah. And I'm pretty sure we did confirm that, back when, although I don't have time to hunt it down just now. :)

It's what they do that was never established.

Re: Out of Character Discussion (Walking Softly)

This might also be an ideal opportunity to see if someone has an identify scroll, or, if someone has the spell in their repertoire, perhaps the components for same might be available.  Or something similar.  Your credit is running fairly high right now.  ;)

Re: Out of Character Discussion (Walking Softly)

Hey all, my apologies for Bruenor's absence, and just after our thrilling victory of sorts.

Ended up spending a weekend with a surprise appendectomy!  I'm a week on now, but still slowly getting back to life as normal.

I should be able to get a post up tomorrow. :-)

Re: Out of Character Discussion (Walking Softly)

Surprise Appendectomy!  The only kind!  (But I do hope you're feeling better.)

I had a moderate meltdown on the 9th, and had to spend some time getting back together.  Should be updating all the things on Wednesday night.

These things always travel in 3s, so appendectomy, meltdown..???  I almost feel as though their should be ominous music playing in the background.

Re: Out of Character Discussion (Walking Softly)

Some help with Farian's Healing abilities.

In Farian's character sheet, there is a domain spell of Cure Light Wounds.  If I read the spell right, I can only cast it once on one person.  Correct?

Also, there is the 0 level spell of Cure Minor which heals 1 point.  I could cast it all 4 times i'm allowed and then heal 4 points of damage to one or multiple people.  So 0 level spells are not unlimited, correct?  I come from a Pathfinder background.

Finally, the previous player didn't prepare any other Healing spells in slots for Level 1 or Level 2 slots.  Are there any other ways I can heal other than my Domain spell and the 0 level spell?

Re: Out of Character Discussion (Walking Softly)

It may be that you can substitute healing for another spell of equal level. (If so, you never list a healing spell as one of your prayers.)
