Re: Should Belkar keep the new look?
Vampires are repelled by mirrors and cannot attack anyone who boldly presents one. I admit it had not occurred to me that one looking through the mirror might not see the vampire. But there can be no doubt that if Belkar wore Aviators he would present them boldly!
And now it's confession time: in over forty years of gaming, I never once before now thought of Aviators as useful items for an undead hunter to have. Or any other character. There are hundreds of gaze attacks, and when I consider how many savings throws I've failed against them...

Each one of us, alone, is but a drop in the sea
Our powers pale compared with the great heroes
Our battles don’t hit theheadlines or shake the earth
But they are few, can’t be everywhere, and we, many
So, when the world or universe needs saving, they come
But when people needs saving, we are the ones to appear
We're underdogs, but we rise up to the challenge to be heroes.

Re: Should Belkar keep the new look?
You know, considering how often he is face to face with powerful magic exploding around him, with all sorts of arcane energies and unknown types of radiation, wearing proper eye protection may actually be quite beneficial to his vision and health in the long-term.

Re: Should Belkar keep the new look?
Where can I buy the album?
Has anyone considered the magical properties of dark shades?
My guess:
+5 Charisma
Intimidate as a free action every round.
Interrupt Action - by sliding the glasses down and gazing over the top, wearers of these glasses may interrupt any action the target of the gaze is performing. Spells fizzle, skill-checks fail, and attack routines halt. If the recipient of this effect is also wearing dark shades, a Hipster Battle may ensue.
Hipster Battles occur when two prominently bespectacled characters use their gaze on each other. The battle consists of dismissive and derisive gestures, pithy quips, and long-suffering sighs. The battle is apparently won when one affects a greater degree of boredom than the other.

Re: Should Belkar keep the new look?
But like....seriously...
The shades worked right?
He's just pretending they didn't by stabbing a bird that can be resurrected and then a cleric who 1. he doesn't care about and 2. can cure themselves.

Re: Should Belkar keep the new look?
The shades will have absolutely no effect on the Domination. It's maintained telepathically, not visually.

Re: Should Belkar keep the new look?
It may not have worked now - but if he does break Domination later, the shades would prevent the vampires from realizing his eyes were no longer swirly.
I would imagine the only thing that might break it is if Ms. Vampire with the Gloves tells him to do something unhealthy to Mr. Scruffy.Last edited by skim172; 2018-06-29 at 09:06 AM.

Re: Should Belkar keep the new look?
No he shouldn't. Eyes play an important role in displaying reactions for OOTS characters. I doubt he'll have the sunglasses for long.
