Being neutral is just that, somewhere inbetween the other four possible components of alignments and pending on the other half of your possible alignment putting you closer or further away.
@Comic:
I would prefer at least using Magic Missile as well over giving a melee-er flight, but between the two I think Lenny with his better chance of bypassing DR (Power Attack, Higher BaB, Str, Greatsword, etc) would have a better chance then Rocky trying to Sneak Attack.
Problem about fighting Area of Effect-using monsters is if you divide enough they have to try and concentrate on certain targets more, along with the healer having to travel further just to heal a fallen comrade.

Also, when fighting AOE monsters splitting up is something you have to do, if they can hit the entire group anyway, then splitting up will reduce their damage by around 3/4.thnx to Starwoof for the fine avatar

Re: Our Little Adventure: A fun, original fantasy romp
Outsiders are basically the monster equivelent of Tier one, along with dragons, so I'm not surprised she has so many powers you loose count. It must come standard with the colossal stick up the arse of most devils.

Re: Our Little Adventure: A fun, original fantasy romp
New comic!
Should certainly make things exciting for those on the ground. The tide was certainly turning against the erinyes prior to that summoning. I just wonder if Lenny got in a hit in after she summoned them, or if his action was the parry in panel 2.
Anyone have any monster details on the devils?
Time for Rocky to go to work...

Re: Our Little Adventure: A fun, original fantasy romp
The reinforcements are bearded devils, aka barbazu.
The Erinyes isn't using her abilities as effectively as she could, but then I guess neither are the party. The biggest threat to them right now is if she just Charms Lenny, removing the party's only real source of damage against her.I'm the author of the Alex Verus series of urban fantasy novels. Fated is the first, and the final book in the series, Risen, is out as of December 2021. For updates, check my blog!

Re: Our Little Adventure: A fun, original fantasy romp
And so, half of the victory is assured!
I almost feel sorry for that poor Blind Beardie... More then likely because I live with a blind man and fear the day that may or may not bring such a fate to me.
And since it has been pointed out to me the author does grant extra exp for defeating summoned creatures, its only more likely for the team to level up.
I'm personally kinda confused as to why she didn't use more of her SLA's and the Imp left as well when he can easily continue with his spying mission. But then those little buggers are more interested in Numero Uno till the boss wo/man catches up so that seems to make sense.

Re: Our Little Adventure: A fun, original fantasy romp
I meant largely getting in a Charm on Lenny or Rocky before they could try to close in. Even at the chance of an AoO it could of saved her some damage.
Hindsight is 20-20 I guess.
Level-up get!
That Wounding ability that Bearded Devils have is quite annoying imho.

Re: Our Little Adventure: A fun, original fantasy romp
Oh my... So few posts yet so much stuff has happened since!
#332, 333, 334, 335, 336, 337
SpoilerNice catch there Dane (who posted at the forums over there) on some of the references. Some how I totally missed the Terminator or even the Captain Jack bit.
I'm going to have to bet that Jack is a Bard class mostly because of his ability to use scrolls, claim to be able to heal himself, and his roguish good looks. :)

Re: Our Little Adventure: A fun, original fantasy romp
So the group's now in Autumnson...wonder if this town will prove to be as "busy" as the last one
And with a full month of voting under our belts this time, unlike during May where we missed out on the first five or six days, we are steadily hovering around the #120 ranking. Very nice! Let's take it to the next level ;)Last edited by Great Dane; 2012-06-20 at 10:45 PM.

Re: Our Little Adventure: A fun, original fantasy romp
Oh man, new PC. I'm guessing the party is finally getting a Cleric. Not that Julie wasn't filling the healing needs for the most part by any means but she can do more bardic things now!

Or better yet, if they are lucky the cleric will do real cleric stuff, and not just run around healing.

Re: Our Little Adventure: A fun, original fantasy romp
For a while I was hoping Pauline would return...but the group's weakness is the lack of a cleric-type. Think they've got it now, so bring on higher levels.

Owww... little Angelicka looks so happy to receive her sister's affection... not.

PC: Excuse me, what?
DM: I said, roll for initiative. They like their cheese really ripe in these parts. They have the ooze type.

Any guesses as to who the two town criers are? It's suspected their real identities are disguised right now...

Oh please. They're hardly disguised at all.
Combine that with their terrible acting skills...

It's Sophia and Malchior.

Re: Our Little Adventure: A fun, original fantasy romp
You only get one major double-cross (unless they're utter simps, which the party isn't), you just gotta bide your time for the right moment. Yes, she has had times when she could have got somebody killed but that doesn't mean she has to jump on it and vacate the party. She can do just as much damage by keeping notes on the party and biding her time till she has either a piece of the Magicant or nothing more can be gained. Neither goal has been achieved, so she can make nice just fine while hinting to the readers, if not rest of her party, that she's not up to anything good. I believe her sincerity in her research topic of obscure flora and fauna as far as I could throw her.
