Well, this is a good opportunity for some IC downtime anyway, so that's OK! I'll go ahead and assume Taldrel accompanies Landra et al to the Fancy Inn, just so that is out of the way (unless he'd prefer one of the cheaper ones, but he doesn't really strike me as the type?).

Flirted with Tempest Fighter or switching to a falchion/fullblade, but decided in the end to mostly keep Landra the way she was: took the Eladrin Noble Birth background (+2 Intimidate) in keeping with the whole ghaele thing I've been growing her into, swapped out Cleave for Footwork Lure from MP, swapped a few other powers (ironically enough, only one of the new ones isn't from the PHB). Goodbye Spinning Sweep, Comeback Strike, Dance of Steel, Thicket of Blades, Crack the Shell - hello Steel Serpent Strike, Villain's Menace, Sweeping Blow, Victorious Surge, and Nimble Bladestorm (from Dragon 366's Mithrendain article, but the Character Builder text says the to-hit bonus is available to heavy blades, where the PDF says it's just light blades and spears. Can I get a ruling on that? If we go with the PDF I'll probably juggle the dailies again.)

My copy of the PDF does include heavy blades for that power (as do all the fighter powers in that article, incidentally). It's adding the full DEX modifier to the attack roll that bothers me a little, but eh, it's a daily and only deals 2[W], so whatever.

Thanks guys. Glad to be back First of all, I've only been scanning the thread, in case you wanted to bring Alagand up to date IG. Do you want to do it that way, or would you rather I read the thread and we just said something like "Annetta tells Alagand what's been happening?" (did I see "Lich" somewhere in there?) Also, I'm kind of liking the idea of switching Alagand to Avenger, which seems to fit him quite well. Is that cool? I would keep the same fighting style, the rogue multiclass and (I'm pretty sure) the same paragon path - I'd change the stats a little. The hesitation I have about this is less about how much it will mess with game continuity, and more about party balance: it's pretty sweet to have two healers. If MMA ok's this, what do people think?

I was thinking along the lines of her affinity for magic being explained to her and to some degree opened up to her by her fey mentor, but for the bulk of it, her power comes solely from raw, barely contained power within herself. Of course, she'll never admit that. I can scare up a sheet if need be. One question though is would I be able to swap my rod for a magic dagger? The rest of my gear I'd keep the same, just wondering.

Nimlach: If people want to RP bringing Alagand up to date, they absolutely can. (In fact, I encourage this.) You're still free to read the thread of course, and if you wanted me to I could throw together a brief summary of what has happened since Alagand's death as well. I'm OK with the avenger thing. In fact, I was almost expecting it.  Regarding party balance, yes it will make a difference, but as both Taldrel and Petra can dish out some healing, you guys still ought to be OK. (Also, I'm probably going to try and recruit a seventh player again soon, so the leader slot vacated by Alagand is likely to be filled.) Other players are welcome and encouraged to give their input too on this, of course.The Transhumanist: That's fine. Feel free to RP/fluff it out to your heart's content. Also yeah, go ahead and change your rod to another implement of equal or lower level. (This goes for everyone; if a change of class/class feature renders your current implement or weapon useless, you may pick one of equal or lower level to replace it. Nimlach might wish to consider this too, as a glaive isn't a particularly good avenger weapon for a number of reasons!)

Is it that you can't get the oath of enmity extra roll with a reach weapon? I was thinking that the polearm gamble/ uncanny dodge/ heavy blade opportunity combo Alagand was going for would be neat with a pursuit avenger - (if you move in to hit me, I attack you, but if you don't end your turn adjacent, I can shift all over the place)

Yeah, it's mainly the low damage dice and the fact that you have to be adjacent to get the OoE reroll. I'm of course not going to keep you from using the glaive if you want to, it's just that I'm not sure if doing so won't compromise your damage output a bit too much. Completely your call!

Edited my new sheet into the game thread: decided to take Iron Will instead of HBO for now to fill up an obvious defense hole. While we're cleaning our sheets up, we should look at inventory: I think we have a rather large quantity of gold to split up - since we funded Alagand's raise out of the statue and some other stuff we already had. Also, worth keeping track of who has the ritual scrolls and the other treasure from the warlord's study. Unless I'm missing something, we have about 3000 gold and about 930g more worth of residuum to split up, plus whatever our casters were carrying before. If we split the gold 6 ways, that's 500 each, and I suppose we can let the ritual casters fight over the residuum. EDIT: Also, re: Alagand switching to Avenger/Rogue, it's certainly fine by me - like MMA, I always thought that was more fitting for him anyway, and we still have Taldrel and Petra, plus whoever else might join.

Post them in here if you can't send PMs so they don't get lost quite as quickly, please.

That works. If it ever comes up, I might houserule that characters benefit from their mounts' abilities even without the Mounted Combat feat, just because it comes up way too rarely to justify the expense in my mind. (Just to make sure, though, you're aware that anyone else using a shield won't benefit from Phalanx Warrior?)

Feat wise, I totally spaced out on my bonus human feat when counting up. Pact Initiate works just fine there. Stat wise, I started out with the 17-15-12-11-10-8 pick. Added 2 to my Charisma for being human. Fourth and eighth levels I added +1 each to Dex and Charisma. Level 11 gets me +1 across the board. For some reason though, the 17-15... start out seems to throw a lot of people off when looking at it, especially the higher you go. Nevermind, I am stupid. See bold. Otherwise, I have fixed up the sheet to include the Pact Initiate pick and some other house cleaning. As for items, interaction between magic weapons and Sorcerer powers are interesting. That said, a cunning dagger +3 (lvl 13) would be nice, assuming I am correctly remembering/assuming that it's property applies when using powers through it. (AV P67) Otherwise, Elemental Twist +3 (Lvl 15, PHB2) for magic weapon goodness. Both would be good too. Ring of Feather Fall, Exodus Knife, Foe Stone and Skeleton Key would be nice as well. Handy things are handy. Familiar looks interesting... hmmm. Curse you choices! Extra Edit: No, I read the chart wrong. Edit: Decided to drop Wild Spellfury in favor of a Familiar. Go with a Rootling for story purposes. Idea being that the continued absence of her patron and inability to provide her new power as she progresses constitutes a violating of the pact, and so nullifies it. However with the Eclipse having sealed off the world it ends up being a not orderly process, instead the magic twists unpredictably, pulling her own latent power to the fore in the process. Some of the magic remains within her, (Eyebite namely) but much of it is pulled free, unable to return to her patron it creates a form for itself out of some plants and twigs, and 'remembering' Annetta as it was a part of her it takes up residence as her familiar.

I'm still investigating my options, but I think I'm going to keep the glaive; among other things, it'll help keep Alagand's "feel" much the same. Course the fact that avenger fits him like a glove also helps -I didn't even have to rename any of the powers  Alagand 2.0 should be up tomorrow evening.

The Transhumanist: I really like the rootling thing. Your defences appear to be a little off though (Fortitude is one point too high, Reflex and Will are one too low each), and History/Arcana should be 12/14 respectively as you have a +1 INT mod, not +2. Also, according to the char builder, hitpoints should be 79. I _think_ that's all. Nimlach: Sure. And anyway, it's not like switching weapons is a terribly big ordeal should you find it really doesn't work out in the end.

Feel free to change your scale mail into plate armour, then (and get a heavy shield if you want). I'm a little more reluctant to fiat a holy symbol into existence, but the party's finances ought to allow for Petra to at least procure a nice +2 symbol, I think, which should tide you over for now. You might also want to edit and resend your wishlist PM. (And don't forget about DOHA. :Þ)

BALANCE OF NATURE
Some druids favor being in beast form, while others prefer being in humanoid
form. However, just as druids seek balance in the world between divine and
primordial forces, druids pursue balance within their own minds and bodies.
You begin with three at-will attack powers. Throughout your career, at least
one of those powers, and no more than two, must have the beast form keyword.
By this means, you have access to useful attacks in either beast form or
humanoid form.
PRIMAL ASPECT
Druidic lore speaks of the Primal Beast, the first spirit of the world’s
noble predators. A formless thing of shadows, fur, feathers, and claws,
this creature appears in many druids’ visions, and they speak of channeling
the Primal Beast when using their wild shape and beast form powers. As a
druid, you choose which aspect of the Primal Beast you most strongly manifest
with your powers.
Primal Guardian
While you are not wearing heavy armor, you can use your Constitution modifier
in place of your Dexterity or Intelligence modifier to determine your AC.
RITUAL CASTING
You gain the Ritual Caster feat as a bonus feat, allowing you to use magical
rituals.
WILD SHAPE
As a druid, you have the ability to channel the primal energy of beasts into
your physical form and transform into a beast. You have an at-will power,
wild shape, that allows you to assume the form of a beast, and many druid
powers have the beast form keyword and therefore can be used only while you
are in beast form.
The wild shape power lets you assume a form of your size that resembles a
natural or a fey beast, usually a four-legged mammalian predator such as a
bear, a boar, a panther, a wolf, or a wolverine. Your beast form might also
be an indistinct shape of shadowy fur and claws, an incarnation of the Primal
Beast of which all earthly beasts are fractured images. You choose a specific
form whenever you use wild shape, and that form has no effect on your game
statistics.
Your choice of Primal Aspect might suggest a specific form you prefer to
assume, and certain beast form powers specify changes to your form when you
use them. You might also resemble a more exotic beast when you're in beast
form: a reptile such as a rage drake or a crocodile, or a fantastic beast
such as an owlbear or a bulette.
BLIGHTBEAST PATH FEATURES
Blight Action (11th level): Whenever you spend an action point to make an
attack, all enemies adjacent to you must move 1 square away from you or take
ongoing necrotic damage equal to your Constitution modifier (save ends).
Blighted Wild Shape (11th level): Whenever you use your wild shape class
feature, the animal form you assume has a deathlike aspect—perhaps even
appearing undead. While in your beast form, you gain resist 5 necrotic, and
your attack evocations that have the beast form keyword deal extra necrotic
damage equal to your Constitution modifier. At 21st level, you gain resist 10
necrotic while in your beast form.
Racial Traits: Elf
Skill Bonuses: +2 Nature, +2 Perception.
Elven Accuracy: You can use elven accuracy as an encounter power.
Elven Weapon Proficiency: You gain proficiency with the longbow and the
shortbow.
Fey Origin: Your ancestors were native to the Feywild, so you are considered
a fey creature for the purpose of effects that relate to creature origin.
Group Awareness: You grant non-elf allies within 5 squares of you a +1
racial bonus to Perception checks.
Wild Step: You ignore difficult terrain when you shift (even if you have a
power that allows you to shift multiple squares).
Notable Skills:
Arcana: +11 (+5 Trained, +0 INT, +6 Level)
Heal: +16 (+5 Trained, +5 WIS, +6 Level)
Insight: +16 (+5 Trained, +5 WIS, +6 Level)
Nature: +18 (+5 Trained, +5 WIS, +6 Level, +2 Race)
Perception: +18 (+5 Trained, +5 WIS, +6 Level, +2 Race)
Religion: +16 (+5 Trained, +5 WIS, +6 Level)

Benefit: You get a +4 feat bonus to initiative checks.

the two rolls.

Wild Shape

At-Will Polymorph, Primal
Minor Action Personal
Effect: You change from your humanoid form to beast form or vice versa. When
you change from beast form back to your humanoid form, you can shift 1
square.
While you are in beast form, you can't use attack, utility, or feat powers
that lack the beast form keyword, although you can sustain such powers.
You choose a specific form whenever you use wild shape to change into beast
form. The beast form is your size, resembles a natural beast or a fey beast,
and normally doesn't change your game statistics. Your equipment becomes part
of your beast form, but you drop anything you are holding, except implements
you can use. You continue to gain the benefits of the equipment you wear. You
can use the properties and the powers of implements as well as magic items
that you wear, but not the properties or the powers of weapons or the powers
of wondrous items. While equipment is part of your beast form, it cannot be
removed, and anything in a container that is part of your beast form is

Disease
There are... were, many druids in the depths of the Everleaf. Some were good, some were evil, some were as impartial as Nature herself, but even before the Eclipse, there were none like Badger. She had felt the call very early, becoming one of the youngest druids ever to watch over her tribe, but even in those first years of practice, her mentors and guides could tell there was something different about her. Badger was a natural healer and protector, curing the sick and injured came easily to her, her devotion to nature was so great that even Melora granted her the power of divine healing. Even this, though, wasn't truly unique. What really set the young Badger apart was her affinity for death. Her goal wasn't to heal everyone, it was simply to help people live to meet their appointed death. Many of the creatures under her care who were too sick to survive on their own were quickly and gently ushered into death. There was no malice or bloodlust involved, only the inevitable turning of the cycle of life and death. Soon, in addition to her duties protecting the tribal lands, Badger was being called on to help ease the suffering of those elves resting on their deathbeds. As the years went on, Badger became more and more focused on death and the dying, traveling from village to village to administer to the dying or fighting against outbreaks of the undead. All was fine until Badger was tasked with seeking out and destroying a strange blight deep in the forest. Creatures were coming forth that were not just undead, but diseased. Already a number of small outposts in the deep woods had been destroyed, their inhabitants having been transformed into shambling, mindless, horrifically powerful undead. With a contingent of friends, Badger set off, ready to solve this mystery. They fought their way deeper and deeper into the Everleaf, into areas that even the elves left alone until, at last, they came upon a cave surrounded by dead trees and brackish, muck chocked streams. Something had corrupted this land and everything that had called it home. Badger was not prepared for what she found inside the cave and neither were the others. She was the only one to return from that quest. The bodies of her companions were never recovered although Badger claims that she buried them in the traditions of the tribes. She has also never spoken of what occurred in the cave except to say that they killed the monster that lurked there. Later expeditions to the cave found it empty, the land around it still dead, but with signs of life doing it's best to reclaim it. What is certain, is that after her return, whenever she transformed into her animal form, it was no longer the sleekly furred dire badger she normally assumed. She now transformed into the skeleton of some strange beast with claws and fangs. Her bones are so white that they seem to glow even, especially, under moonlight. The tribal elders had little time to debate what to do with Badger before the Eclipse occurred. What the did decide, after many of them began to lose their powers, was that if someone had to go outside the Everleaf to investigate, why shouldn't it be Badger? Since then, Badger has been following rumor after rumor, looking for anyone who might know what happened. Soonmot fucked around with this message at 18:15 on Dec 19, 2009 |

Posting largely to go  at Aschlafly. Aschlafly.Also I still need (potentially updated) wishlists from Aschlafly, Clanpot Shake, Nimlach and Stormtrooper, per PM please (or in this thread if you don't have plat); up to 5 items of up to level 16. If you've submitted one before and it wasn't via PM, please just repost it in here, even if it remains the same despite recent character changes. Edit: speaking of which, players who wish to opt out for any reason, be it limited RL time or any other, ought to do so now, while there's still some downtime going on and it's more easily explained away. There's no need to struggle to participate in a game you can't or don't want to commit yourself to, and I would absolutely not hold such a decision against anyone!

Last call for anyone wanting to make changes to powers, feats etc. with regards to the new Divine Power content. This mainly concerns Nimlach/Alagand, but I know that at least one other character has multiclassed into a divine class, so there may be some retraining potential there as well – there are new divine multiclassing feats in general, anyway, so this really goes for anyone, I suppose. Post any changes you'd like to make here and we'll talk!

Thanks for the offer I'll swap out Arcana Training for Closing Pledge. After a fierce internal struggle, I guess that I will also make the predictable choice to swap out Distracting Flare for Silver Shadow. I like that Distracting Flare gives opportunities to become hidden, but I am forced to admit that Silver Shadow is the poo poo.

Is it a common sentiment that this last fight may have been a bit on the long side? I'd like to hear opinions, if only to get an idea of what folks' expectations in this regard are. Purely in terms of monster hitpoints/quantity I don't think it was particularly outrageous by paragon tier standards, although that is of course but one factor among many.

I had no particular problem with it, but then again I also did obscene damage with an at-will. I think the mop up phase took a little bit longer than necessary, but not draggingly so.
