[OOC] The Dinner Table

[JohnStone]

Bane, I mean "Diamous" is complete and Present, May god have mercy upon you.

[kaylara]

Well there's her mission as well... her mission/quest to be immortal

[Captain K]

That is a nice picture of Diamous.

Never heard of 'Maenad'. Looking it up suggests some Psionic scumbag. Fair enough. Line up to get murdered.

You need a theme tune. Something which evokes both dinosaurs and crappy psionics

[kaylara]

lol don't think psions weak, there good for a 1 or 2 shot instant killers. there's a few ways to nullify them good and only costs about 50,000

Just to give a sample: if a wilder decides to spend 111 power - DC fort save would be approx: 71, failure = 222d6 (avg damage: 666 hp ), success = 4d6 (good luck) .. oh and they still have power left, in-case you made it

[2nd Chance]

The Incorruptible Lion is currently under construction. Have to work through Friday, so probably won't be done until Sunday or so. Just curious, am I still the only Lawful Good contestant? In the name of chivalry, man, where's the love?

[MundayKnight]

All of the trash talking has got me all hot and bothered, I just made someone as gimmicky as I could.

[kaylara]

Its ok Mun, it should be fun either way. Becides, whos to say people get to recover after battle.. there could be some back to back ones.. so if you spend everything in 1 or 2 fights, by the time you hit the 3rd you might be in trouble.

Alternatively, one could properly read the rules on psionics.

Hello, I'm here too. Don't forget the quasi-psionic prince over here.

[kaylara]

as long as the rule of not spending more than manifester level is effect

There was one where the masses didn't know that was limited and it caused a lot of issues...

Really there is only one rule that matters... Your power point expenditure cannot be more than your ML. So in kaylara's example you'd have to have an ML of 111... That's beyond godlike.

[kaylara]

were playing with gods, no?

Just saying, I once played a game where that rule was 'over looked'

[Muggins]

How do you expect to do that? I can only count three ways to get psionic foci.

Edit: Kaylara edited away what I was responding to. For posterity: No, you cannot manifest "4 quickened powers and 4 standard powers in a turn, all 8 of them twinned" because every metapsionic feat requires psionic focus.

[kaylara]

that's a relief glad they changed it from 3.0 rules, seems like they balanced it a bit better.

3.0 rules were just crazy...

[Muggins]

It was like that in 3.5e, too.

So, still no traits? I mean, I'd like to pick up something like Magical Knack, but apparently they were informally banned.

[AximusLokar]

There's still the loophole of 'Unless I like them'. Still waiting to see how that pans out.
