Whirling Frenzy is now officially A-OK!
Sleep is easily countered by being level 6... okay, not so easy for low-level people, but still.

So, Red basically wants to drop the Uldra-only requirements for a Prestige Class? Alright, but I'll give the class a minor nerf in exchange. The Cloak of Winter's Chill effect can only be used 1+cha times per day initially. At level 4 you can use it 2+cha per day, and 3+cha at level 7. This basically represents that you aren't as naturally gifted at ice-ness as the Uldra are, and it takes you longer to do it as well as them. I'll do a similar thing to the amulet; reduce the price to 21,000 gp and make it so that the Sleet Storm is only usable 2/day. The feats look fine. As for the elemental, I am wary of letting you give it a "Touch attack of Fuck You", but I'll let it slide for the SOLE reason that the only way to find one is to use a level 9 spell.

Any 2nd-level spell that can do 16 points of attribute damage all at once is not going to happen, so Phantasmal Assailants is a no-go. On that note, Spirit Worm is a no-go as well, not as a level 1 spell. If Phantasmal Assailants did 1d4 dex and 1d4 wis damage, that would be okay.

Boiling Sphere spell looks okay to me, although things are going to be weird if you try to use it on objects. ("I'll burn the door down!" "With what?" "Water!")

Game is in 2 hours. Server should be going up in 1 hour. On a tangentially related note, 12 hours of Banquet Serving tends to make one stiff. And also richer.

[Shoruke]

Server is up. Time to inaugurate some newbies, and do some plot-ness.

In other news, I'm strongly considering changing the amount of experience that journals give. Kogan pointed out that they tend to counteract the auto-correcting experience system, so that'll need to change. I'll try to come up with my own newly-balanced journal system, but I'll hand out goodies to anyone who comes up with supremely good ideas. Support your community with the power of thought!

[Heron TSG]

I'll be on my way shortly. As for journals, how about they give (Average Party Level)x100 instead of (Player Level)x100? That would slow down the higher characters and speed up the lower characters.

[Heron TSG]

Speaking of journals...

Spoiler: Maelrigar's Log (click to show/hide)

That bone-headed deerperson has finally left us. He couldn't handle the return of Vaba, so he just wandered off. Van Baelian'zair has also wandered off, too. His new peacemongering ways weren't suited to mercenary life anyway, so it's likely a good thing. As for me, I'm about to undertake a mission for the Eriden government. Glory awaits, I am sure. Mysteller, Kimiko, and I convened to hatch a plot to steal an amulet from the temple of Boccob. I still need to return that staff...

Anyway, the amulet will be returned after this coming mission, I am told. That is good. I hope it aids us well, because we are sorely lacking in replacement warriors now that we have lost 3 of our tribe. I will be back to write more after I learn more of this mission - and perhaps undertake it.

Glory awaits.

[Yoink]

Doesn't look like I'm quite gonna make it to this one, still finishing my sheet.

[Heron TSG]

We'll be playing for hours. Take your time.

[Shoruke]

Kimiko, Andre (quite well-done, considering how little happened), Mystellar, Pheron/Stihe (but only one of them  ), Raspul, Van/Felrook, Kenneth (funny to watch a paladin misspell the name of his own god  ), Ethan, and Maelrigar receive their journal experience. IN THAT ORDER. And then Vaba, from the next post.

As for finishing your sheet, Barbarossa is right; we'll likely still be playing five hours from now. If you connect to the game before you finish, you can ask us for advice in real time, too.

Spoiler: Vaba's Journal (click to show/hide)

The last few days have been mostly uneventful, mostly just being random wandering around the docks looking for Bote.  Despite their control-freak-ness, the Githzerai were right about this planes inhabitants; most of them are complete bastards.  Can't even show me where Bote is.

On the third day, I found the ship.  When I yelled up to the crew I was greeted by Van, Pheron and Maelrigar.  Van was thick-headed as always, and Pheron just wanted me gone.  Maelrigar however was fairly nice and welcomed me aboard.  Then two men walked near to the edge, one hooded and standing in front of the sun so I couldn't make anything out; the other was armored and quite large, apparently a bodyguard.  Then it hit me, half the bodyguards face was rotted off.  THEY HAD REPLACED ME WITH A NECROMANCER!  I was completely amazed by this- I shot a completely evil creatures young; he enslaved people corpses!  Ethan walked up at about this time and joined with Maelrigar to advocate my return against Pheron.  Van also reluctantly joined in.  Mael seemed to want to let me in provided I proved myself on the next mission.

Then Nael and some armored paladin walked up.  Nael was quite drunk and just said he was happy to see I survived the desert.  The paladin seemed suspicious of me, until he was told I was exiled for shooting at some baby dragons, at which point he offered to let me join him on a quest for redemption.  I agreed, simply because it's not too hard to cross the desert, and he seemed like the sort that would take offense to me rejecting.  Best get an early start on an alliance with him.  And then he voted me back on.

Pheron seemed to get quite angry with me joining and then began to pack his stuff up.  Good riddance.  As he left I spat into his horns and boarded the ship.  No-one objected.  The Necromancer seemed quite happy that I had attacked children, apparently more for the fact they were children than them being dragons.  If it weren't for the oath I have had to swear several times I would slit his throat in his sleep.  It seems to be reciprocal.

Apparently Pheron had been paying the crew, and now that he was gone Kenneth took up the slack.  It seemed that they charged him more, but ehh.  Not my money.  Maelrigar also has gotten a wolf named Fenrir, whom had been wandering the streets. I went to pet the dog but he decided to try and pee on my foot.  I like Lyca more.  The necromancer started complaining about how hard it had been to get a companion, while the orc just found one on the streets. Serves him right.  I went to the hold to get some well-deserved rest.

In other news I just woke up and it appears that Van has left.  Something about how this crew was too chaotic for him.  I think he joined the guards.

I basically completely forgot about journals until I saw the "UNBALANCED JOurnal xp"

[Yoink]

Ok, so it's alright if I just connect, and ask you guys a few questions? I'm a little confused, still, but almost done.

[Heron TSG]

Yes.

[Vherid]

I got dropped and now player name already in use?

[Heron TSG]

That just means the cache hasn't been emptied of your name. Unless you want to wait a long time, just reboot maptools.

[RedWarrior0]

Eh? The original PrC had a human for the sample.

Also, the Cooling the Fire was my addition; it seemed thematically appropriate, and I felt throwing a disadvantage would compensate a leetle bit.

*Re-reads the thing*
Oh, huh. I'm a bad reader. Alright, forget about my nerfs. You can keep your own nerf if you want, but I won't make you.

And I'll see about making the Party Pog Repository bigger. Maybe add summoar rooms, with labels... one for the PC tokens, one for summons, one for backups/unused stuff, and one for just futsing around placing random tokens. And I'm going to update the exp in the OP someday, I swear it.
