Where did Cav fall to? Is he still on the roof with everyone?

He is 3 floors down.

To get back up, you can go to the elevator and climb the guide rope up or go to the stairs.

Rules Question: My dream form is a conjuration, but I don't know if it's affected by difficult terrain, can provoke OAs, take fall damage, etc. Anyone know off the top of your head?

It occupies no squares and can float. It is unaffected by the enviroment and thus difficult terrain. Normally they can't be attacked or physically affected. This is not the case if the specfic conjuration says so, obviously.

Here is the text for the Dream Form:

Hmm, I'll edit my post to reflect the new information. I'm trying to get it near the ledge above Cav so I can attack the wizard if I need to.

Vaine's paragon path is dreamwalker (where he gets the dream form from). To be honest, it was the only path that lined up even close to how I built him: Attack will and deal psychic damage. It's encounter attack power, however, is a thorn in my proverbial side. It deals psychic damage, but it attacks reflex. Here it is:

Spoiler

Mind allowing me to change the attack to be vs. Will? The main reason is that I get a +1 to hit vs. Will, so this attack uses a different attack bonus than the rest. I'd be willing to lower the damage (2d6, perhaps?) if you are concerned about balance.

I don't know everything about conjurations, but the power says that it occupies a space. I don't think it provokes OAs because IIRC the shaman's spirit companion does not provoke OAs. I would imagine that it is affected by difficult terrain, unless it floats, but I have no idea about taking falling damage (I guess if it floats it wouldn't fall).

@Felhammer: How far down is Cav? You said 3 stories I think, but how many squares or feet is that? I may be able to get him back a bit quicker than having him climb up the stairs or elevator ropes (assuming Sploosh's super blitz megaton smash attack against the ogre felled it).

The Subscription didn't send emails to me. Sorry for the delay.

Cav is down 30 feet.

EDIT: I am fairly sure the Dream Form is unaffected by terrain and does not provoke OAs.

I will update tomorrow morning/afternoon.

As of the time of this posting, Fishy has not replied. I will thus assign each other player a number, then roll a die. If your number pops up, you receive an action point.

Are we in the market for a replacement, then? Sorry to see it happen.

As for the action points, didn't we all get one earlier? If so, that makes Vaine with 3. Eep!

I'd hate to loose Fishy but unfortunately the game is slowing down due to her absence.

I should have looked at Bren and Saal's amazing turn more closely last night. I had no idea you guys pumped out that much damage!

That Ogre went from "Rawr" to "SPLAT" in a single turn. Well done!

Since I may not be around this evening, I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume you guys take 10 or 15 minutes to loot the bodies. If not, ignore this post.

I've created a new map template which we will use going forward. The biggest change will be an on-map location describing all of the PC's, Allies' and Enemies' basic statistics - including HP, Defenses, Status Effects, Initiative and Passive Insight/Perception.

What do you guys think?

I will try to post tomorrow, but someone just quit at my job and so I'm covering extra shifts with one other guy. It's pretty busy. On the plus side though, once we find a replacement, I will get bumped up to a better schedule. Anyway, the point is I'll be squeezing a post in whenever I can. I suspect that I'll be able to post tomorrow, I'm just too tired right now.

@Felhammer: Nice work on the map .

Heal checks.
(1d20+8)[15]
(1d20+8)[26]

If either fails and they're still alive, he'll simply "rouse their spirits" with two uses of Majestic Word.

Rouse their spirits by violently shaking them and yelling at them to get back in the game

Seems fine to me, though we may have the number of posts per page option set differently. There is a well known error of the first post of a new page not showing up until a second post is made.

I've decided to give her until Friday to come back. If not she will, sadly, have to exit the group. I know she is currently in the middle of family problems but her character's absence from the party is hurting the progress of the campaign.

Her last post in the IC thread was on the 17th of January. By Friday, she will have missed over 3 weeks of this campaign.

Have you considered a replacement yet? It seems like a good time to introduce a new character. I can make suggestions if you don't want to throw out rerecruitment thread.

Given that we have the 4 roles covered with the 4 remaining characters, then the 5th can be almost anything, even a second controller. I think Vaine does a great job, but one who has more forced movement / area damage would be of value. Of course, the other 3 roles (defender, striker, leader) all work great as a 5th wheel.

Also, you can put Vaine's initiative at +8 in the first post of this thread.

Anything could be welcome at this point. I don't think either encounter showed a lack of anything in the party at the moment. We seem to be doing ok.

If you do decide to recruit someone else Felhammer, I'm sure you'll get plenty of bites. Paragon 4th edition should be pretty popular and all roles are covered so potential players can play whatever they want.

And it's Eberron . I'm tempted to apply with another character and play two of them .
