the OOC and general Q&A thread!

[jojolagger]

See, you'd think I'd be worried about the giant anthro-whale. No, no, I'm worried about the tiny little spider. What is he plotting? He looks like he's plotting something. Doom, perhaps? With a side of bacon?

Actually, I'm freaking out about the empty pedestal right now. After that, the kobold is the main threat, followed by wob nair.
Of course, I definitely don't need to worry about the spider.

Can we get a list of who the players are in this game?  Clearly we have:

sirp
shiki
impk
venn
jojo
phae

It seems there are 11 of us, unless one or more of them are NPCs.  Who else is involved?

Also, I think the empty pedestal is the most dangerous entity here. I'm actually having some trouble remaining rational due to it.

[HeadofVecna]

OK to yell stuff at the other characters at this point?

Having seen a bunch of his creations I fear PhaedrusXY. I don't know which character he's playing but ... (shudder).

Sure, if you want.

Well, what if it's just literally an empty platform? The Wizard could be messing with everyone. He seems the sort for psychological games.

[ImperatorK]

I think it's a pixie.

No, he wants a proper fight. His goal is to see who is best at fighting, not play petty tricks on us.

I think it's a pixie.

If that's the case, we'll see him when the AMF's turn on. However, I doubt 4 LA would be a good idea in this game, considering that the DR 10 is far less valuable than normal.

Pity my character can talk. What I wouldn't give to say "kill, maim, destroy" at this point.

[ImperatorK]

Maybe it's an Alchemically Invisible creature (PF template)?

I have pics for the anthro whale if the player is interested:

That second picture is quite literally the same one on his character sheet.

[ImperatorK]

But I'm gonna imagine him as the first pic.

[HeadofVecna]

I almost went with the first pic. Too cartoony, but funny.

Curse my lack of automatic and bonus languages... Wait, what happens if your Int bonus is higher than your number of bonus languages? I might be able to get common, if overflow bonus languages can be (any).

[ImperatorK]

Will we have any kind of indication that there's an AMF active or do the characters have to figure that out themselves by noticing that some of their abilities don't work?

If you want to get technical about things, the PHB/SRD states that all characters know common

Race And Languages

All characters know how to speak Common. A dwarf, elf, gnome, half-elf, half-orc, or halfling also speaks a racial language, as appropriate. A character who has an Intelligence bonus at 1st level speaks other languages as well, one extra language per point of Intelligence bonus as a starting character.

It's probably an oversight of the people writing the PHB, assuming everyone would be playing one of the races in that book, but there are rules to support you at least knowing Common, if you want them.

It's basically going to be crackling obvious magick draining purle lightning or something similar. I know AMF's don't destroy a wall of force, but meh. Epic level wizard does what he wants.

I'm really interested to see how the tiny spider plans on protecting the pile o' goodies. He's got to have some kind of secret.

Let's play a game called reach into the pile of treasure without 'finding' the spider. Wouldn't it be terrible if you put some armor on with the spider inside? Considering my character can actually fit in pockets, I wouldn't count on finding him before he's out of the AMF's LoE, and I'd hate to know what nasty presents he'll leave from the pile o' loot.
