Your efforts are amusing to the dread lord. You are hereby officially granted the title of Catnip Philosopher, sanctioned by the Cult of Snuggles. Benefits include an excruciatingly painful but brief death and subsequent devouring of your soul when the time comes, a life filled with constant dread of our lord and an early retirement.
(Which doesn't bode well for you, for it might attract His attention.)

Re: First time DMing and already killed a character.
I'm not that concerned actually.Being the descendant of a vacuum elemental and some kind of lich makes figuring out if its even possible to die to be too tricky to figure out.
By the way can you tell him to stop sending these bugs,or at least change the type? It was ok for the first hundred thousand but watching them suffocate is getting kind of boring.
Re: First time DMing and already killed a character.
Theres an elemental plane of vacuum and while I don't think the elementals appeared in any wotc official book there are conversions to 3.5th edition. Plus the plane still exists and therefore has elementals.
Basically this is one of those question you probably shouldn't ask.

On a test run of one of my homebrew monsters (Milon of Poison) I managed to stick like, 47 ongoing poison damage onto the Warforged Fighter before he successfully saved against the damage.

You have failed your spot check.

I mean really, it is almost like you didn't realize this is a treed about Cat and its many manifestations. That should be obvious from the title. or you know from reading it.

At first I thought he was trolling...

And in case people get further funny ideas: CATNIP FOR THE CAT GOD! YARN FOR THE YARN THRONE!! CATNIP FOR THE CAT GOD!!! MILK FOR THE MILK BOWL!!!!

I thought it would be appropriate at this time to put up a quote from the 16th post:

Re: First time DMing and already killed a character.
I have continued my studdies of this matter and in the process stumbled upon a set of ancient glyphs. It appears to be some kind of character sheet or at least a stat block. I have only translated part of it so far but if the trasnslation is accurate it proves my theory about Snuggle's not actually being evil. Unfortunately its a lot worse. I am sending the notes but sealed them for those who don't want to know.

Re: First time DMing and already killed a character.
The pathetic attempts to quantitatively analyze our dread lord is doomed to fail, for it's beyond mortal understanding. But qualitative analysis might lead to some glimmer of understanding.
In this instance, that understanding is also wrong.
Spoiler
Belkar's mentality is as close to the dread lord as is mortally possible, which has prompted blessings upon him by our master (shown by one of the heralds of our master's accompanying of him).

No clue what you're talking about, as I only read the first post.

As I said it seems to be one of the mystical artifacts known as a character sheet and that is the translation according to the best translation books never written that I could find.
Spoiler
My guess is that an allignment detection spell could result in the summoning of a halfling ranger that would stab out the persons kidneys. Also there are rumors(never found the actual source only posters commenting on it) that the entity known as the Giant declared that Belkar had no back story. The cult of Snuggles has mentioned that Snuggles is supremely evil. There are also entities made of allignment. Therefore I stand by my esitmate that Belkar is in fact Snuggles morality in halfling form. This would also explain why he is destined to die at the end of an in comic year and never return. There is no prophect twist. Belkar will simply wind up being in the back of Snuggles head with the rest of the voices telling the cat to kill things. Which to him would be better than paradise giving him no reason to return. Although this brings up two interesting questions. How did Mr.Scruffy go undetected in a city ruled by paladins and is Shojo actually good like he claims to be, I mean was associationg with cat from this side of the mirrorplanes?

Cats do not rule us, we rule them! For even the humblest of clergy have the power to defeat the evil of Snuggles, and that power is Create Water! Fear the theurge who has prepared Resilient Sphere and Quickened Create Water, Cat God.
