Wednesday I have another maptools game, but the other days are usually open.

[The Fool]

While Barbarossa's idea of a dragon touched warforge sounds crazy, it might not be impossible. If something that could be dragon touched, maybe an acid or lightning elemental (relating to a power supply), was used in the warforge's construction leading to an ancestral link. That way you could have organic dragon wings sprouting from an inorganic creature. There is also no guarantee that warforged don't bleed battery acid, or some alchemical blood that used a living creature to create it. If that is the only problem with warforged not having a dragonblood subtype then I'd personally be OK with it.

As for having a spiritual connection, it wouldn't explain the wings. Growing organic wings from an inorganic being without justification is strange as is. Which is why I'd go for a linage thing instead.

Proposed homebrew feat:

Dragonforged [Draconic]

The specific sort of warforged that you are was forged by, for, into or out of a dragon. Or something like that. The net result is that you're pretty draconic in addition to being a warforged.

Prerequisite: Cha 11, warforged

Benefit: You gain 1 hit point, a +1 bonus on Listen, Search, and Spot checks, and a +1 bonus on saving throws against paralysis and sleep effects. In addition, you can select draconic feats as if you were a sorcerer of your character level. Finally, you count as having the dragonblood subtype for the all practical purposes, despite not having blood, draconic or otherwise. Any draconic body parts that you gain via feats are just as metalic as your warforged body.

[Shoruke]

If you take both feats at level 1 and justify it as having *lots* to do with dragons during your backstory (which is possible in this world but involves spoilers), then I'd be okay with it. Bonus points for having been built by a polymorph'd dragon. (or whatever spell it is that they use to disguise themselves)
And when I mentioned the paying a bunch of money to have the wings constructed, I meant that it would be in place of the feats.

[The Fool]

I made a mistake when I said that I was free on Tuesday, because I actually work til late. I have Wednesday off, and I'd be an hour late on Monday. I was looking at last week's schedule. Sorry about that.

[RedWarrior0]

Hm... There's a spell in a drag mag that turns a snake into a sword for 1 min/level, granting autoproficiency with longswords on the caster for that duration (and only for the snake) and dealing the snake's poison in addition to poison. 4th level wizard/sorc and cleric, 3rd druid and ranger. There's also a spell that grants four arms in spell compendium. If fenrir and lyca both die, and Fool, Mael, and I all take vipers as companions, I cast the four-arm spell on Mael and wild shape into a viper, then we could have a guy charge into a fight quad-wielding snake swords. Is it just me, or does that sound AWESOME?

You are a genius. I was considering grabbing a viper at first, too.

Alright. I'll have it up later.

Oh, it stemmed from a GitP discussion I saw in which someone mentioned having his familiar (a viper) use him as a mount for using the venom, and then one thing led to another.

Here is the character sheet for Grim Rubyguard, Dragonesque Warforged Fighter. It's not quite done. I have yet to type up the backstory or add in most of the items, but it's got most of the mechanics in there.

Kusari-gama can be found in the DMG under the 'integrating other cultures' section, I think it's called. It's the section that also has stats for the wakizashi, katana, pistol, and other 'foreign to D&D' weapons.

As for your flaw thing, I don't exactly know what it is that you are trying to do... Meagre Fortitude seems to have been quoted verbatim from the SRD, and you're trying to add the fear of worms as a flaw too.....? You'll need to explain exactly what you want to happen here. However, given the circumstances, I think it would be fine for you to apply a flaw and feat while not taking a level. (Unless you're trying to say that Scoleciphobia is a good flaw because it's always on... which it isn't.)

What I was trying to do was find a flaw that fits appropriately. I felt that Scoleciphobia was called for in some form, but I couldn't quite find anything that had that sort of thing plus fit with the Always on. As such, I decided to make up Scoleciphobia and just set that to be on in general. I don't have to get anything out of it, so that's part 1 of the Flaw.
Part 2 of the flaw is something that would be fitting and meet the requirements. I considered Meager Fortitude and found enough justification in it, so I added that to Scoleciphobia.
So Scoleciphobia is more of a side-effect, with Meager Fortitude being the real flaw.


As for time Available, I will not be available until sometime around 8:00 PM on all three of those dates for next week. I should be able to have reoccurring Tuesdays the week after next though.

This is, technically, a programming language, albeit a very bad one. If anyone is interested in programming, they could look up the maptools wiki, grab a macro, and try to figure it out...

[Heron TSG]

RAM, I have been doing extensive work with the MapTools macro system to make playing PTA way easier. It's actually not a whole lot different from the macro system from b76, they just changed a few tags, breaking all my old macros. I abs(love) the new eval function, though, you can use it for anything.

Here is the character sheet for Grim Rubyguard, Dragonesque Warforged Fighter. It's not quite done. I have yet to type up the backstory or add in most of the items, but it's got most of the mechanics in there.

PS: It's level 4 because I doubt I'll need it in the next few sessions. I should have it done by the session later. Also a journal.

[RedWarrior0]

So, when's the session? By the looks, nobody has a conflict on Monday.

[The Fool]

Until Shoruke says otherwise lets assume that there is a session on Monday. Just to be safe.
