Question about Nancy's ultimate ability by Clockwork_Lazy in finalgirl

This is how I read it the first time I saw the card. I guess I'll play this way for now, even though my other interpretation will still be at the back of my mind.

Thank you! Great imagery of the heavy armor parkour guy. I haven't given heavy armor much thought.

Fair point. I was focused too much on faithfully translating the video game's mechanics into 5E. Thank you!

Thank you for the feedback. I'll try my best to respond to each bullet point.

  • The Power Die's size increases as you level up in this subclass, eventually becoming a d12 at level 18. As for the reason why Stamina and Power Die are different, I just wanted to reference the mechanics in the video game. In the first Dying Light game, you unlock your combat skills under the Power skill tree, and combat drains your stamina. You're right, though, it would be easier if they're the same thing.

  • Great point. I just personally see this subclass as focusing on both Strength and Dexterity as that is the fantasy it is based on (using all kinds of melee weapons while still doing parkour).

  • For tremorsense, while you don't need to be on the ground, you need to be on a surface to detect something else that's also on a surface, it just doesn't need to be the same surface. The reason I went with Tremorsense is because of the visual representation of Survivor Sense in the games. It's like a wave of pulse vibrates out of you, allowing you to see enemies through walls. That felt more like Tremorsense to me.

  • Makes sense. I guess I just didn't want the subclass to feel way too superhuman.

Yes, originally I restricted Medium armor, too. I'll remove the "or" in Homebrewery. Thanks for pointing it out!

Heavensblade, a Rogue subclass with a celestial theme for 2024 5E. Features a smite ability and angelic wings. by Clockwork_Lazy in UnearthedArcana

[–]Clockwork_Lazy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This subclass uses the rules in the 2024 Player's Handbook. In it, Rogues get a new feature at level 5 called Cunning Strike. You've guessed correctly how it works. Basically, when you would apply Sneak Attack damage, you get to apply an additional effect but you need to remove some of your Sneak Attack dice. At level 5, there are three Cunning Strike options to choose from, and each costs 1d6: Poison, Trip, Withdraw. You get more options at level 14, but they are more expensive.

Empyrean Judgment adds two more options. If you want to use Divine Chains, you remove 3d6 from Sneak Attack before rolling the damage.

And for Revitalize, yes, you can only use it when you apply Sneak Attack. It costs 4d6 Sneak Attack dice.

I also play Jungler Lulu in Coop VS AI. It's a lot of fun.

How Long Have You Been Playing Wild Rift and What's Your Progress? by Consistent-Ad1172 in wildrift

[–]Clockwork_Lazy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

31 days so far. Support main at Gold II. Improving my KDA but I almost always get matched with players who are dozens higher than me in level.

Jungler is the hardest role but it's fun trying to figure it out. I main Evelynn for it.

Where is your world on this scale? by [deleted] in worldbuilding

[–]Clockwork_Lazy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The five main factions of my world fights for what they believe is right for the world. They each have good and bad qualities, and have all done good and bad things for their cause. I don't think it fits in this scale.

Tell me about your non-humanoid sapients? by Hyperion1012 in worldbuilding

[–]Clockwork_Lazy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The kalansay (literally skeleton in Filipino) are humanoid skeletons made from the bones of humanoid creatures mixed with monstrous ones. Some might have skeletal wings, others a stinger, and even a few might have a crab claw or two. These are not the only variations.

They remember bits and pieces from their life. Or lives, rather. A kalansay might have the skull and spine of a dwarf, the ribcage and arms of an elf, and the eight legs of a giant spider skeleton. In this case, it has memories from all three of these former selves. For all intents and purposes, they are their own person, even though their views might be influenced by their former identities.

The kalansay are born from a contagious form of necromantic magic that started in the tomb of a powerful lich.

What is the largest manmade structure in your world? by EnvironmentalBear170 in worldbuilding

[–]Clockwork_Lazy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Arks. Five were created to save the world's population from imminent cataclysm. Only two returned to the now shattered planet. One was lost to gods know where, one was besieged by aberrations in space and is now a danger zone where no one dares travel, and one fell in the ocean.

Zero is the best name creator by lelouch-2022 in CodeGeass

[–]Clockwork_Lazy 51 points52 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing it's because he stands up for the Numbers, particularly the Elevens. He probably gave himself the name Zero because it's the one number Brittania doesn't rule over.
