Re: OOTS #1020 - The Discussion Thread
No you wouldn't. :P
A scroll mishap has a random effect which is not necessarily (and in fact not usually) dealing damage to any enemies in the area. It's just as common to deal damage to yourself specifically as it is to explode.
The one thing an intentional scroll mishap can do pretty consistently is make a loud noise. Which is good if you really need to get someone's attention and are size Tiny. It's not so good if you are an ordinary size PC and have much better ways to deal damage and/or make loud noises without any risk of hurting yourself.

Re: OOTS #1020 - The Discussion Thread
Oh, this is beautiful. This is absolutely beautiful. I never realized that you could weaponize how delicate magic is and how easy it is to make a "mistake"

Re: OOTS #1020 - The Discussion Thread
Not only is panel 8 my favorite Blackwing line, it may be my favorite 4th-wall line as well. Thanks, Giant!

Re: OOTS #1020 - The Discussion Thread
I'm glad to see we're back to the main characters at any rate.
To speed up forum loading, you can turn off Signatures, Avatars and/or Images separately from one another. See 'Visible Post Elements' under 'Thread Display Options' under 'Edit Options' in the User CP (Control Panel). Only works once you're logged in, though.

Blackwing is one of my favourite characters for a reason.

Well, if you're gonna roll the dice, that's not a bad way to do it.

Re: OOTS #1020 - The Discussion Thread
Yup. Familiars have Evasion, so all they need to do is to make the Reflex save (if they don't, that's bad, because looking at the marks on them it seems they have suffered a lot of damage already). On the other hand, swarms take 50% additional damage from area effects like this. It's the perfect trick to use in this situation.

Re: OOTS #1020 - The Discussion Thread
Well, the thing is the spell isn't Locate Animal. It's Locate Creature.
Range is a bit short for Serini-finding purposes, but there are uses it can be put to.

And throughout all of this the guest character's tiger is conveniently off panel.

Re: OOTS #1020 - The Discussion Thread
I wonder if a message can be discerned from the scroll, like how there was a message in the runes when Darth Vaarsuvius was summoned.

"...the GOOD news is that I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing!"
Can I get a T-shirt with this line?

“Evil is evil. Lesser, greater, middling, it's all the same. Proportions are negotiated, boundaries blurred. I'm not a pious hermit, I haven't done only good in my life. But if I'm to choose between one evil and another, then I prefer not to choose at all.”
