Thanks for the clarification post, Loki - that helps me understand things a LOT better!
 
"You'd think I would start prooreading my posts one of these days. "
 
If you want, since I'm an English Major, I'll help you proo-read your posts any day, my friend...lol.  Sorry, that ^ just struck me as funny, and you know I hafta give ya a hard time, SOMEtimes.
 
*is speechless at the post by HT*
Wow, Hi'el. Have I mentioned lately how much you ROCK? Thank you for listing this! Speaking as someone who doesn't have very much info. at all about the Gods and Pantheons, this is a tremendously helpful post! Any way we can link it in the Library Stacks or something? *just an idea*
 
Okay, I'm still not exactly sure what to post for Sia, Gwen and Darien, but I know I need to post something, so I am off to do that now.
Toodles.

Thanks for the input Bro. Much gooder. I have heard of maybe half of those + a few from my old God and Demi-god hardback. Extra info is always a plus.
 
Play thru my friends.

((OOC: This might take a while, hes a kender looking around a house. He'll check every little nook and cranny, and maybe even end up with his pockets bulging a little more than usual. Ill get to the cooking part later... which should be just as interesting. lol.))

Ummm, you know that "off-hand" arm swallowing trick the Pit Lord's trying to pull... well, it must have a really big mouth to be sucking on Kur'ai's medium shield and his arm... just wanted to point that out.  Care to clarify what the Pit Lord's a doin?

@ HT. Oh yea, sure, I see your point, that is gray isn't it
Ok then, I would say that it can obviously swallow two men whole, maybe more. One, when its  head splits open to its shoulders and unhinges and one, in its stomach mouth
 
It just swallowed Lita as an example of what size it can consume. I let her feet hang out one round in case anyone wanted to pull on them, but she's still large as a shield for referance.
 
I think your underestimating its size valiant knight. You may have a point when it comes time to swallow you and your shield both but I'm not that far in into the fight yet. We'll see. (you know I'll make it a possibility no matter how unlikely)
 
Double the diameter of whatever you're currently thinking the Lord is around.. Its one fat ass demon. Hence three legs to carry it smoothly and 30 limbs to constantly feed it add in its rubber stretchy skin and you get more of the truth. Its a walking cave with teeth living.
 
And even if I wanted to change a post due to an oversight I can't edit. Orginally the script read that the shield was maybe being destroyed but I factored the totem against it and skipped it alltogether, which inadvertantly left out the image of his shield disappearing in this things clapping mouth. I made mention of it once but it must be next to the post I did for Angel?
I did assume the shield in question was of the traditional smaller horsemans variety and not the taller footmans version, so maybe basing posts off your pic wasn't the wisest of me. I do see where you said medium so I'm roughly ok on its size
 
Sounds as if you willl have some negatives to any phys rolls and I have shield-in-mouth to deal with, lol.
 
Does that have anything to do with, or help, your question?
 

 
Ok Raven well probably just glaze thru that part. I need to catch everyone up to you yet tho

Um, yea, I am kind a uncertain about the proportions of the critter I'm fightin... 15' tall was about all I got with a mouth in the stomach, tentacles for arms and 2K+ lbs.  I see now that a heavy battering ram would be more effective.  Okey dokey, well, time to go berserk. ;)

So who's fer sure dead?

Lita (pretty sure, Lita fondoo), Gwen (almost sure, barbeque priestess), IB (hole through the guts has a tendency to do that)?

Unfortunatly Lita is toast.
 
Gwen, you see is mostly immune to the IB's fire on account of the totem so I'm going to give her a break.
 
IB doesn't look bad at all considering his size. BUT you see how pure magic can affect him. Consider the totems the heros carry. Now they to can harm him with thier spiritual holy energies. Melikki has imbdued her defenders with her knowledge and power over all living things. And IB is partial demon wrapped in living orc so they have certain immunities and weaknesses. IB seems to have an initial immunities to all forms of physical damage while BC was immune to magics. (not that Kurai knows all this necessarily)
 
In fact IB looks incredibly pissed off and ready to shred something.

Correction Jake! Angel is using Humaniod Biology, at least thats what Raven has and I'm sure he taught Angel. If you have Human instead, change it to Humaniod.
This is for Lokis reference as to what shes actually doing as well. It's a specialist biology proficiency, I think it's an alchemist proficiency... I'm not sure. Kinda like a doctor... a non-priestly, non-magic healer.
 
Little kender has a mouth on him when he gets mad... lol.  Keep in mind he is a 33 yr old halfling, and he's also lawful good. Which means protecting a real child is his priority right now. I kept it PG13... lmao.
I just hope he can pull this off without getting himself killed. Even though he's only 3rd Level, he's a powerful little halfling. Peppin is the first Kender character Ive ever had so far in my long RPing career, so Im trying to do my best at it and keeps things interesting with him. RPing a childlike character isn't easy. lol.

I gotcha, NP here. I think everything is fine as far as technicalities go. I guessed correctly on the alchemist aspect of Biology. That made sense. Thank you.
 
Peppin is alot of energy to get across. Kender always are. I tend to aviod playing them because they're difficult for me.
 
PG13, lol. Its your site. You know I don't mind. I think it sums up the scene. I hope you can pull it off or the others will be using a spatula to get him up.
 
I don't look forward to too many funeral rites this month.

lol. Well he pulled part of it off, the rest will be next round.
 
man... I hope a thousand feet is enough to get off a couple psionics dude? Thats why I didnt pick 100 or 500 feet, 1000 feet straight up is pretty dern high. I wanted enough time to get at least two psionics off, from the point of drop, and still have a round left to use them. Plus he's done this before, but just use levetation to come down. This time he had psycho chick along for the ride, so he phased first... not wanting stabbed or dragged down with her. So hence he went a little higher this time, to try and allow for another power activation and usage. Anyway... your the DM, so just letten ya know the plan.
I think a little obscenity is ok if its done tastefully, and with moderation. Also when a special occasion calls for a little Kender taunt, well... ya know the rest. I also do not lay claim to the site. Many people here helped to evolve ES into what it is today, I could never take all the credit or claim. I just guard the keys is all, and make sure things keep flowing smoothly around here. lol.
I hope Pep pulls it off too, it would be some killer XP for the little guy. lol. Hed jump to 4th level easy.

You know what I mean. You have the say so. I have been especially good about my language so don't give me a reason to go off, lol.
So far everything is been fine by me. As long as no-one confuses my char with what I persoanlly feel, which is two entirely different things. I think Skeetch is a scuzz, BC is an idiot, and Ironbar is a powerful idiot.
Charyn is a self serving hoe, and the rest of them you'll just have to see. Unless of course if they're dead. Like Amagato, he's pretty much toast. I might have to go get Slaine and my blind kensai back out if they kill Charyn. I'm really glad to see some bad guys. One of these days maybe I can run a goody two shoes to!
 
And 1000' will give you at least a couple rounds to do whatever you like. And know that Ironbar, Skalla, and Bonecrusher are all enforcers of the Horde, not just no-bodies. So who ever is involved should expect some of my custom compensation in addition to the xp. Nothing great but maybe it will make taking all the hits a little more worthwhile.
 
*shrugs* hard to say
 
Above all, have fun
