[OOC] Dungeon Builder Monster Extraordinaire

@Mae

Think you can drop that pdf for the game? I’d like to give it a look so I know what I’m doing.

[VeyrinDay]

how do I find the list of abilities?

[VeyrinDay]

Am I the only one lost here, scratches his head.
I didn't think it would be so complex,it's like learning a new edition in DnD.

@Kenshi

I'm starting to see why you are so right somehow

[Mae]

@VeyrinDay Here's the Zealot link, I also just PM'd everyone the PDF, let me know if it works ok.

Here's some examples of how your ability section might look:

if you wanted to take the Conniver's Intuition if you still like the look of it:

Channelling: : You can spend stress to Invoke tier 2 and tier 3 spells of your chosen deity’s domains. Each god has two domains which act as magic paths.
Intuition (Flexibility Slot): Others are an open book to you. You can spend stress to establish a target’s emotional state, though it must be a reasonable emotion for them to be feeling. You take +1d when you act on that knowledge.

or you can pick from the ZEALOT tree, Unholy Ritual as an example:

Channelling: : You can spend stress to Invoke tier 2 and tier 3 spells of your chosen deity’s domains. Each god has two domains which act as magic paths.
Unholy Ritual: You gain a downtime action which you can only use to incant rituals. On a success when incanting a ritual, you gain a dark heart.

or if you want to have a vampire racial and only occasionally do magic:

Racial - Vampirism: : You can spend stress to remove the bloodied condition, so long as you can drink someone's blood.
Weakness - Sunlight Sensitivity: : You are weak in sunlight.
Defiler: 0/4 Tick this clock once each time you defile something sacred or beautiful that is antithetical to your god’s domains. When the clock is full, a tier 2 ritual immediately manifests in that location and you start a new clock.

or if you want to lean more into the succubus side of things:

Racial - Alluring: : You can spend stress to turn on the charm, TRICKing victims into coming closer to you.
Weakness - Holy: : You have a weakness to the Light's power.
Defiler: 0/4 Tick this clock once each time you defile something sacred or beautiful that is antithetical to your god’s domains. When the clock is full, a tier 2 ritual immediately manifests in that location and you start a new clock.

@Mae Like my Kobold's picture?

[Mae]

@Dark Cloud he's the most majestic kobold I've ever seen, how dare he be so beautiful.

seriously though how did you find a majestic kobold

[Dark Cloud]

@Mae Very long search between pinterest & google images, also I want to discuss a possibly interesting hook for Zaz.

[Mae]

@Dark Cloud ooh cool, what are you thinking?

[Dark Cloud]

@Mae The only hint I'll give here in the OOC is this: Look closely in the background of Zaz'ak's picture.

[Lucius Cypher]

And with that my dude is done. That being said I do have some questions for ya @Mae.

For the Living Weapon ability, what exactly does Grappling do? In my mind I imagine it's basically Darc reaching out using one of his tendrils or boney limbs to both hurt and them grab onto his target, so he can drag them away or throttle them.

[Lucius Cypher]

@Mae Changed it from a Skeleton Key to some oil so Darc can slip away quickly.

[Dark Cloud]

I'm great at trickery, skilled in perceptibility and stealthiness but okay with precision as well as crafting.

[Mae]

@Lucius Cypher Excellent, approved! When IC you can start posting straight away.

also sorry for missing your post, Grappling would have +effect when stopping movement so you can use it that way.

@Dark Cloud sneaky tricky kobold definitely wont wake up any dragons or anything

[Dark Cloud]

@Mae Tippy toes and Yippy doges = Kobold with lotsh of goldz.

[Dark Cloud]

@Mae Question: The defense we start with fills our high quality starting slot right or...Is it something else?

[Dark Cloud]

@Mae Also the PDF was too large a file to load.

[Mae]

@Dark Cloud nope, doesn't have to! Any of your items can give you a defense against a certain situation, doesn't need to be your best item that does it. You could conceivably have a feather that gave you defense in tickle wars, or something.

For the high quality slot, it can be a tier 1 concoction (a potion with a positive and questionable aspect, like Suregrip: allows you to climb surfaces but items stick to you) tier 1 contraption (like an invention, powder or bomb, again with a positive aspect and a questionable aspect) or a tier 1 magic item (same again, and has limited uses, so think a cloak of invisibility except it only turns you invisible if you're buck naked with the cloak on) or you can take 1 gold, which would allow you to recruit the first minions you find.

Also rip, seems like the PDF is a problem so I'll zip it.

[Lucius Cypher]

Cool. I guess I'll just wait for you to finish the first post and then I'll dive in, right @Mae?

[Mae]

@Lucius Cypher I don't want to pile too much pressure on the new players too quickly, so I'd like to see where we're at tomorrow and get a feel for how everyone's doing. I'll drop a PM your way

[Dark Cloud]

@Mae Didn't load still, but I think I can figure stuff out as we go.
