RPG Addicts | We Know You're Hooked

[[OoC: Are you saying "Warrior in full plate wielding a sword as long as she is" isn't imposing enough?? ]]

Threatening, yes. Good to hide behind, no.

[[Don't hide behind her, hide away from her. Because she'll be tanking all of the attacks. Need to figure out how to get her the Shadow Blink maneuver so she can be a proper mage destroyer. mmm...Shadow Blink...*drool*]]

[OoC shadow blink is a Desert Wind manuever isn't it?]

[Edit looked, shadow hand.. so you need a glove/gauntlet slot free for an item, then have a set of Shadow Hands created.

Quote:Shadow Hands-: Shadow Hands look like hands carved of jet.
The carvings are incredibly detailed, depicting every mark of
a humanoid hand, down to fi ngerprints and every crack in
the palm and knuckle. When someone places
both hands over the Shadow Hands so
that his shadow falls over them, the
carved hands vanish, and a pair
of black silk gloves appears on
the person’s hands. These
gloves can be removed normally,
whereupon they
become hands carved of
jet that look exactly like
the wearer’s hands.
-You will need a set that are Master level for a Swordsage 7 ability
Price: 3,000 gp (novice), 15,000 gp (scholar), or 45,000
gp (master).

[[Shadow Blink is a Shadow Hand maneuver. Swift action 50ft teleport between shadows. *drools*. Pretty sure she can Martial Study it at some point.]]

[OoC That's why the Master Shadow Hands item.. gives you 1/encounter use of a manuever useable by a 15th level swordsage.. meaning up to an 8th level manuever.. there are cheaper items that do the same but less times per day.. anklet of translocation (MIC) 1400 gp for 2/ day swift 10' foot.. or Shadow Cloak [DotU p. 101] - +1 deflection bonus to AC, 3/day immediate action one of either: concealment for 1 round or teleport 10' LOS... its cheap too - 5500gp. , and the cheapest Chronocharm of the Horizonwalker - swift to move 1/2 your move speed 1/day = 500 gp.. get all three and you are a MENACE]

[[That’s the point. But with Martial Study, she can get it with just a feat. The question is will she have any to spare.]]

[OoC since it is a swordsage 7 ability I think you have to be kevel 13 before you can take it, since we are doing a feat at every odd level rather than every 3 levels, you should be able to spare one.]

Hide Check = [1d20+6] = 5+6 = 11
Move Silently Check = [1d20+8] = 18+8 = 26
Spot Check = [1d20+1] = 11+1 = 12
[OoC: Kubo steps silently, crouched low into the glowing light of a furbee, and pulls a see no-evil. ]

[This is a 'Fur-Bee.'  That's not their real name but it's better than the real name so we're going with with it. ]

Kubo sneaks through the heavy foliage like a cat.  Not a single leaf so much as quivers.  Kobu then carefully parts a large fern to look out into the clearing. Meanwhile, one of the Fur-bees gets curious about what the dwarf is doing so it floats over and positions itself above where Kubo is squatting.  The haunting glow of the pollen stuck to the fur-bee's legs acts as a sort of spotlight, shining down upon the dwarf and in his eyes, thwarting his hide and spot attempts.  

Already frustrated with the buzzing, spotlight hovering above him, Kubo squints to see what's in the clearing but is suddenly startled by another disembodied voice...

[OoC: For the record, Tomeal is 5'4".  

Kidding!  He's about 6'4".  So he basically towers over all of you.  ]

[OoC2: There was a lot of OoC chatter.  What exactly are you guys doing? ]

[OoC: Kubo tries to quietly wave the furbee away, and then will try once again to peer into the clearing to see what is there.]
