You realized what you just did, right PN?
You realize what you are doing, right Projeck? If the gatekeeper is outside wrecking a fire elemental's shit, then who's inside, preventing minions of the Sultanes from entering?
Void, obviously.

Then what's the point of the gatekeeper? I would think that someone with the designated role would be integral to that process, otherwise they need not possess that occupation.

The Gatekeeper does what Void can't do 24/7. This is technically a state of emergency on the Creation end of the gate, so it's understandable that Void would watch the side of the gate that's in the void.

Also, yes, stats will come here soon.

Wait, so, seeing as Void controls that entire realm, couldn't they just rig the area around gate to do it automatically? Why does he need either himself, or the Gatekeeper to stand guard?

Eventually, they'd get through anyways. It's more effective and safe for the Gatekeeper to stand guard.

Twi, you and I both know that you have more than enough free time to keep up with RotMG. It's not that time consuming, either. Especially when we're waiting for fights to resolve.

Then don't. Have a character with their own priorities to deal with who pops in whenever you actually do have enough free time. That way, you don't need to know much about what is happening, after all, your character wouldn't know much about it either since they'd be busy with their own affairs.

So...we're ignoring the drawbacks rules and the way TNs work and all because PN feels like it? >_>

Yay, I get to do nothing effective for even longer this combat.

*sigh*

Whatever. Doesn't even make sense, but I'm not the current GM. You guys would get pissed if I tried doing something like that during my plot, though.

Now to try and figure out what Kaotaro was doing.

EDIT: Was the damage Spensir took taking into account his +5 DR and his +2 to dodge rolls?

I feel the need to argue about initiative and that Franziska simply was too slow to simply steal Walpurgas spell.

Furthermore I argue that a negliable spell from Walpurga is not actually strong enough to lift and throw a whole person, let alone Icaeus who is much more heavier than that. Considering resistance rolls, it's also very unlikely to be dealing 18 damage.

And now don't go argueing that she just steals the type of magic and then does with it how she pleases. That A) would require knowledge of every kind of magic there is, and B) is not what happened at all in the previous turn, where Franziska clearly redirected the spell.

I also wish to add that to be stealing a spell that is not even aimed at you, and that has no visual representation of what is actually happening before it happens strikes me as arbitrary. Please some consistency

edit: Also *nope*  Kansa send the lightning at Elysa, not Franziska. The one without powerarmor to tank the blow.
