yea... rpgwebprofiler.net is definitely down, and out. I'll try to have Drum redone by this weekend

Sorry about dumping Drum, Trias. I considered if the devil would actually be so evil as to delay getting backup, but then I figured he had a sound interest in seeing this through, and Drum can probably remain undetected for at least a few rounds.

By the Wei, did you take a look at the second part I sent you about Canzon's background?

Ok, Drum is being created as I type - also, it seems that I'm not the only one having issues with rpgwebprofiler.

Muahhaha!!!

ok- sanity to my life (though, not to Drum's) will be restored after monday night (genetics midterm) - Drum will be finished shortly thereafter.

In the meantime, all i'm doing is studying, sleeping, and eating applesauce.

Hey, for what it's worth, you chose a pretty damn good time to have a hard schedule in RL--it concided with mine quite nicely (2 big-ish essays in close succession). I've just returned to doing non school stuff myself.

Also, having lost character sheets for Min and Ixa, I've made changes to them to make more balanced characters. (both have a higher level secondary casting class and lower int scores and save DCs in wizard to avoid all the problens save or die is causing me at the moment)

Well, I think the game has halted so we can give Trias time to re-make his sheet.

hehe, yes, sorry for the delay, just turned it into Wei- so I guess we can continue (minus the items - which i'll have very shortly)

For the time being- (say if we need to resolve combat immediately)- let's just use Drum's base AC, and pretend that he has two +2 longswords.

Yeah, I got the both. My attempt at being clever and funny in the first PM has apparently failed. Sad (I think this is the first time I've ever used a sad face on the PW forums. Just saying.)

AHahahah! Sticking out tongue

I just realized there was a smiley in the PM... wow... talk about missing the boat. Ok, so here's the nitty gritty for Drum's combat, just lemme know if all this works out:

-2/-2 penalties for 2 weapon fighting, +2 any attack with a longsword attk longsword (weapon focus, greater weapon focus), +2 base damage bonus (strength), +4 damage longsword (weapon specialization, greater weapon specialization) , longsword +3 forehand (additional +2d6 vs Lawful, additional 2d6 vs Good), longsword +5 offhand

So the +2 attack with any longsword (weapon focus feats) negates the -2/-2 to 0/0. Then the Base attack Bonus is +16/+5 (forehand), and 0/-5/-10 (offhand) (all the extra attacks with the offhand are due to Improved 2 weapon fighting, and greater 2 weapon fighting)..

Therefore,

Forehand with longsword +3 =
Attack: +19/+8
Damage: 1d8+9 = 1d8 +2(str) +4(grtr wpn specialization) +3(magic)
**an additional 2d6 vs Lawful/or Good creatures; an additional 4d6 vs Lawful Good.

Offhand with Longsword +5 =
Attack: +5/0/-5
Damage: 1d8+11 = 1d8 +2 (Str) + 4(grtr wpn specialization) +5(magic)

*18-20 x2 critical (Improved Critical: Longsword)

*an additional +2d6 for any successful sneak attacks

Looks right to me, but I find lots of numbers frightening, so I could be missing something important.

*Shivers* I hear the creaking on the long shut, bolted, barred, and thrice death-symboled door of M**h (dare not speak the name, as it might open the portal to the most dreaded layer of the abyss! :shock: )

Oh, Ben, by the way, would you like to continue the Awakening (at least on the weekends)... I havent heard from Cern and Dialexis in a while, but no matter - actually - it was more fun for me having a solo adventure.
Whaddya say?

Sounds good! And I agree about those grades, though I think it came from me escaping into my gaming books while the teacher talked, too... Puzzled

Sorry about the late inactivity guys, I've been sidetracked with starting out a game inspired by the Goblins webcomic.

I'm back to regular posting at Planewalker now. Commence the kickassery!

Just popping in to comment that I checked out the link. That comic is sixteen kinds of awesome. Seriously disturbing... but awesome.

Sorry about the double post. The offer for a few sessions using screen monkey is still open if everyone is free at the same time.

Also I'm trying to improve my feeble narrative skills by writing a story-version of this campaign. It's been changed a bit to make things flow better and make more sense. (I was having a hard time deciding what exactly Min was at the begining of the campaign. It shifted from very fiend-blooded mortal transmuted by an inasne prime wizard to an arcanaloth-propper. I'm still trying to make the changes make sense in campaign and I'm not doing so well, I think. (Min is only called Min because I've not gotten to a point where it makes sense to reveal a more yugloth-sounding name))

the archon that realized that it's alone upstairs with Drum and started locking itself in a room - would it be possible for Drum to sneak into the room behind him/her and continue studying for a death attack?

Probably not. You were too far away from the archon to reasonably expect to catch him before he closes the door.

http://www.d20srd.org/srd/specialAbilities.htm#invisibility

some rules about invisibility that I did not know before

Visually undetectable. An invisible creature gains a +2 bonus on attack rolls against sighted opponents, and ignores its opponents' Dexterity bonuses to AC (if any). (Invisibility has no effect against blinded or otherwise nonsighted creatures.) An invisible creature's location cannot be pinpointed by visual means, including darkvision. It has total concealment; even if an attacker correctly guesses the invisible creature's location, the attacker has a 50% miss chance in combat.

yes, Drum can stab them now, though they aren't moving, so it isn't so hard. It's rteasonable to assume that they die when you kill them so feel free to narrate however you choose.
