Would dragging an unconscious party member provoke further attacks of opportunity? I'd rather not do that, if I can heal them, and they probably weigh more than I can drag, but...

Depends on how you move them. If you have enough strength to pick them up and carry them around as "gear" you should be ok, barring possibly an Attack of Opportunity on picking them up, but if they're heavy enough to need the specific "move heavy object" action then yes, Attacks of Opportunity and a drastically reduced move speed.

Full attacking was possibly a bad choice with your BAB. You actually rolled a 17 on the first one, but -4 from Two Weapon Fighting and then -1 for strength and... Well the follow up attack has a -9 total penalty.

Just ouch.

Wat? I said Full Attack, not Two Weapon Fight. I don't have the feats for that! I'm using it as a Two Handed weapon, not a Double Weapon.
(Yes, mechanically there's no difference at my Bab between Attacking and Full Attacking, but Full Attack sounds better, and I didn't actually need the action for anything).

Ah, it seems I'm really bad at interpretting your actions. Really sorry about it man, I'm still really new at this. I'll go ahead and just redo that.

For disclosure: I have a person in another thread that uses the term full attack to mean "Two weapon fighting" so... I just sorta took your wording to mean the same. Will be fixing it momentarily. Sorry again.

I'd say judge it based on what their fighting style is. A Sword-And-Boarder? Not likely to be using both unless they have Agile Shield Fighter. A Krazed-Kukri-Kritter? Probably gonna be two-weapon fighting whenever possible. My guy? Doesn't even wield 2 weapons.

Rules-wise, a Full Attack is a Full Round action that allows you to take advantage of any extra attacks you get from, say, High BAB, TWFing, Natural Weapons, etc.
An Attack, meanwhile, is a Standard Action that only allows one attack, regardless of what extra attacks you have available (with some limited exceptions).
Since Two Weapon Fighting is a fairly terrible fighting method, and utterly horrible for a Druid, nope.

Ooh! Our first crit! By the way, Silthuri, I think you used the wrong size for the longsword. It should be doing 1d8+Strength. Sorry I didn't realize it sooner. Congrats on the crit!

Oh, and natural numbers are denoted by [#!] as opposed to
  • for numbers that are modified. Just thought you'd like to know that.


Less happily, the Gnome is down... This campaign might be more like dark souls than I had hoped! So, raging success! Sorta...

"Damned beast!" The Druid exclaimed as she fruitlessly attempted to parry blow after blow. She was more dexterous, but the hollow never seemed to tire.

"Have at you!" And suddenly the Hollow's head was rolling on the floor as its body made one last pathetic attempt to strike the druid before joining its former compatriot in deaths embrace.

"Sorry I took your kill," Freda quipped "I just wanted to get ahead in the fight."
... So should we post, or just leave you here to play the characters yourself?

To be honest I'm just playing around with different ways of posting. If it's bothering you I can stop. Just trying new things.

Lyra bent down and seized the head of the fallen Hollow. "Where is my Snuffles?" she demanded.
"He's just down the hall and to the right," the Hollow responded, "please don't hurt me any further!"
"Fine." Lyra spat out, dropping the head and walking over to where Snuffles waited.

This is the kind of thing that happens when people don't stick to playing the roles they are supposed to. Don't go down that road; it might look pretty and shiny at a distance, but it is a trap that murders games and teabags their corpses.

Sorry man. Like I said, I was just trying to flavor up the posts a bit. You don't like it, that's fine. I understand. I've already removed it from the post, it is non-canon, and you can roleplay it as you see fit. I apologize for overstepping my boundries as the DM.

Well I for one like what Nerjin does. If you want, Nerjin, you can continue to do the flavor with Freda.
