I'm gonna let Ing kick things off here considering the situation.

[MikelaC1]

Just getting going with a subscription and reiterating my claim of Blue

[Starsign]

Alright, I might as well do the same. Usabhar is Slate Gray and Nasiri, who looks like she's about to crash the party made me completely misinterpret the line, is Yellow Green.

[Ridai]

Rahja is ready, speaking in dark red.

Also, I think I found her theme song of sorts yesterday. Especially the beginning and the last minute.

[Starsign]

Right, I almost forgot. Here's what my total +10 Enchantment bonuses from Dreadnaught's Array will be (items are my Lance and Greataxe)

Everdancing added to Greataxe (+8)
Valorous added to Lance (+1)
Bane (Giants) added to Lance (+1)

[Emperor Ing]

Since people want to keep track of my character sheets...

Lord Wero
Prince Zurkar
Praetorian Korshim
Gyrus and Core

So I single-handedly outnumber the party :P

[Starsign]

Okay, posted my sheets on my second post on this thread. Also apologies but I'll need to post tomorrow morning.

[MikelaC1]

+147 on a perform check?
Celestica suddenly feels rather small. Good thing that being a musician is a secondary part of her character.

[Ridai]

I blame the Artisan of Beauty's +5 per level bonus to Perform. Without that, Rahja would only be very slightly above Celestica's level.

Still, if it helps, Rahja doesn't compare others to herself, so she thinks Celestica is the most amazing artist she has ever heard (well, apart from Shelyn, but that is in no way a fair comparison). She might actually want to learn from Celestica.

[MikelaC1]

The result would have been marginally better if the roller hadnt been so mean to me. 3d20 and all I get out of that was 18??? Thats like, an average of 6 per die. But then again, the forum roller has always had it in for me.

[Emperor Ing]

The forum roller has opinions based on my specific characters. Lord Wero has always rolled good, but Mikela, i'm sure you remember Prince Zurkar's unholy good luck from Lyca. I have another dragon character in another game named Malathot, who for a while, the forum TOTALLY had it in for him. At times, the GM would have me roll d20s just to see if I could roll over a 10 (spoiler alert: didn't happen.) He rolls pretty reliably well now, but....that was truly scary.

[Ridai]

I'll need to wait for where Celestica wants to go. Right now, everyone is all over the place, approaching the enemy is a no-no for this round and the next and we still don't know anything about the cracks. Buffing is kinda difficult right now.

[Starsign]

Realms, how big is the hole that Korshim made? Can Nasiri be able to fit through it in order to ferry people across?

[MikelaC1]

Are we in initiative right now? I know we rolled, but the DM didnt post an order or anything, or call for attack rolls. Unless thats not the way he does it, if we are in attacks, Celestica is going to use her bow.

[Emperor Ing]

We can post out of initiative order, once we all posted he'll organize it and give us a list of effects, then an opportunity to use our immediate actions or do some last-minute corrections to our effects.

And I talked to Realms on Steam. The closest ones are about 1000 ft away with the larger ones further back (but only marginally so)

[MikelaC1]

"the smaller ones die upon impact with ground"

I can just imagine the thoughts of the fiend. Ive been waiting in the Void for over 10,000 years, nows MY CHANCE splat awww, crap

[Emperor Ing]

On the bright side Lord Wero doesn't have to do anything to fulfill his promise of making them bleed for every square inch

Also, I dunno why I didn't do this before but...

Knowledge Arcana
(1d20+50)[56]

Knowledge Planes

@Mikela: With the bonuses Rahja provides to Celestica now, I think you can already let her hand out can of divine whoop-ass even with the range penalties.

Its not the range penalties that get her, its the range increment limits. I dont know (away from CRS right now) if she has a composite short bow or composite long bow...but if its short bow (which I am 99% certain it is), its range limit is 70 ft., a projectile weapon can fire 10 range increments, which still limits it to 700 ft. If its a long bow, then its range is 1100 ft, and I can shoot. I'll check when I can see the CRS, and adjust post accordingly.

Your sheet says your bow (which is a composite shortbow) has the distance special ability, so your range increment is 140ft, not 70ft.

[Starsign]

Sorry for the delay everyone, I've been busy with getting ready for college on the 4th of September. Will make a post hopefully soon.

[Realms of Chaos]

Okay, back online.

1. The hole in the ground should be 10 feet in diameter as per the limits of a disintegrate spell unless there's something I'm unaware of.
2. Lord Wero learns nothing new from his checks.

Damn, you my sheet better than I do. I will post attacks later today.

[Emperor Ing]

Yup. 10 ft space, enough for a Large sized creature or 4 mediums or 8 mediums who are squeezing.

Anyways, apparently with one of my orbs i'm threatening a crit, so....confirm?

(1d20+54)[59]
for x2 damage

And lemme just clarify what the rolls are for: Top two are maximized orbs, next two are Intensified, and so on and so on.

[MikelaC1]

Posted Celestica's round one attacks, instead of waiting, she fires, due to having distance enhancement.
Now, other people appear to be taking another round of actions, should Celestica do that as well, or are they using spells to do so?

[Emperor Ing]

Realms has suggested that we post our reactions and next-round actions in the same post. Considering i'm not using a reaction i'm posting my 2nd round of actions.

Yes, we already post our second round actions if whatever contingencies and immediate actions the character can make use of aren't needed during the first round. Here is the post where Realms explains:
http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showp...1&postcount=47

So feel free to send another barrage of arrows towards the enemy. Also, be sure to adjust the range penalty accordingly, since all enemies are 240 feet closer (only -8 instead of -12, which, funny enough, I forgot to include in my rolls).

[MikelaC1]

Celestica notes the appearance of her first two 1s of the game, fortunately, the rule on a 1 missing is overturned by the multiple d20s rolled in the attack (?). Or am I wrong on that, because only a single 20 turns it into a threat. Oh, and by the way, Celestica still hasnt been blessed with a threat. Just sayin', roller.
