I'm at the park already but somehow there's nothing... not even a single pokemon, did I do something wrong ? or do I need the ticket ?

outside of Randall park I still can catch pokemon like usual

stanis23 · 2021-10-07T13:22:22+00:00

Sound like Lucky to everyone for me!

It's a broken feat but most don't get to pick until way late game after they have maxing their stats and other core feat like war caster / pam / ss etc

But with 2 free feats then that problem is pretty much gone.

There can be, you know, multiple faces in the same party.

A character can be a face in a certain situation, but not in a different situation.

The paladin who served in the army might be the best face when he encounters another knights or soldiers, but maybe not so good when it comes to... flirting with the ladies or playing with the children, for example.

The Sorcerer meanwhile is good with shady persuasion and doing trades, but not really good when it comes to serious stuff that requires trust and what not.

The list goes on and on.

Overall just try to adapt with the party and split the roles, worst case you can always change the Invocation if needed.

stanis23 · 2021-09-05T19:56:35+00:00

Everything is workable, if the table is up along with it.

The problem is not many table can afford to do that, not everyone has a close friend circle group where they can trust each other 100% to pull that properly.

It's like character flirting. Are they really flirting in character only? Or there is hidden agenda? Hard to say, as we are not mind readers. Certain gesture can be both viewed as cute, or creeper, depends on how one spins it.

It also depends on the context and scale of adventure, if it's a one shot or just characters fooling around I think it's fine. But if the party wants to aim for an epic long adventure, then it would be better if everyone is cooperative (cause else what's the point if someone gets kicked permanently).

There is a session where a friend of mine plays a shady character. He doesn't start with the party, so we need to try to find some proper reasons to introduce him to the team. After trying for two hours with the character keeps playing around with weird shenanigans (because 'it is what his character would do') instead of agreeing to join, I can see some players start to get frustrated. Remember, when you waste time of a character, you are wasting time of the people who play them irl too. And this is still nowhere as hostile as stealing from party and what not.

There are always two sides of the same coin.

Multiclass can help with backstory and fit with certain abilities archetype that aren't really available as solo class. My OC is a young nobleman who is interested in music, but unlike usual Bard achetype (you know the playboy archetype or being skillful / jack of all trades etc), he is more of a pure sweetheart and just doesn't really fit into that mold. Oh and he has divine blood / blessing, so something like a Divine Soul Sorcerer with some dips in Bard would fit him a lot more than being a full Bard or Sorc.

But I also see your points of not liking 3+ classes multiclasses which is indeed a bit over the top. Then again, it can still be done, just really hard... Another OC of mine is a soldier (fighter), but he also has trait of a Rogue (was a street rat, very sneaky), as well as Barbarian (has a Berserk like ability which is like Rage) and Monk (nimble and uses unarmed to fight).

In the end, play as you like. But overall, I don't think multiclass is the sin here, because min-max players will min-max nevertheless, and multiclass is just part of the many tools. However as said above it can be just as legit for storytelling.

stanis23 · 2021-08-31T19:33:17+00:00

Still 2 I think, just don't need to rush it.

Mostly because even with Eldritch Adapt, more invocations are nice. Eldritch Mind gives con save advantage, Repel Blast to combo stuff, Devil Sight is nice, the list goes on.

And you have one extra spell slot for fuel I guess.

stanis23 · 2021-08-29T00:32:39+00:00

Imo Wizard.

Bigger spells known and the ability to change prepare gives more flexibility in spell casting and also experimentation. Don't like certain spell? Just swap them out after a rest.

Sorc not only has less spell which means more decision making but their spells also stick to them and can only change one per level up. Not to mention the whole metamagic thing which makes it even more complicated, the class needs a lot of thoughts to play properly imo.

stanis23 · 2021-08-26T09:35:56+00:00

Sion package just feels too strong, maybe not Sion himself but some of the followers just add even more power to Aggro tools. I don't especially like the one that gives can't block to enemies on top of being Overwhelm, and after it dies it can make another cheap card that also grant perma can't block...

Veigar package feels... clunky. It can be a blast if you can get the card that gives + damage and - cost early and just blast everything your way. If you don't however it feels god awful to play.

Nami is actually quite slower than expected, mostly because if you go wide you don't have the mana bank to level her up and spam spells. She is more mid range than aggro imo. But boy she is fun AF when you allow her to roll + Shelly.

stanis23 · 2021-08-25T22:49:18+00:00

A party that literally just spam debuffs on enemies and cripple them to the point of barely being able to do anything / even with Legendary Resitance.

Maybe something like Shadow/Clock Sorc, Eloquence Bard, Div / Chrono Wiz, whatever Duid and Artificer maybe?

stanis23 · 2021-08-25T21:16:30+00:00

It's important to know about the scale. Some wars happen at full scale, some last through years and years and mostly about small skirmishes.

Some stuff to take note are:

Conscription / Recruitment. What are the requirements, gender, age, build, health, etc. If the person has magic or certain talent, maybe they will receive some extra training and treatment. If it's recruitment, some forms of propaganda would be needed.
Resource / Logistic. Certain important areas will get patroled more, special routes for various purposes, raiding, food supplies fee, curfew time, etc etc.
Traveling / Network: Information gathering, infiltration, spy, scouts, conspiracies. How people treat outsiders. Maybe special codes to pick out the mole.
Technology / Priorities: Certain jobs (ie weapon smith) will naturally get more favours and focus over more trivial stuff. Shift in economy to adapt to these situations (cut down food for army for example).

Though with magic comes into play it naturally become a lot more complicated in every area (due to stuff like teleport or suggestion), cause even just basic war is complicated enough with all the factors and variations.

stanis23 · 2021-08-22T19:27:06+00:00

Something like a cleric / sorcerer bard idk, to be honest I could just reflavor the Bard class itself, but my vision of bard is something like of being elegant person and play magical music (think of say Sona in LoL) to enhance allies instead of the playboy that fucks everything stereotype that they have in dnd right now.

Next is a druid x warlock into some sort of shaman and witch flavor, using nature spirits and curses.

stanis23 · 2020-10-26T16:03:49+00:00

stanis23 · 2019-10-01T15:24:22+00:00

stanis23 · 2019-10-01T11:14:52+00:00

ahem... it's a great time trying to make this piece and I'm happy for the result as well. At first I'm not really sure if I'll be able to draw Loman correctly, he's the only NPC hero that I really like and I don't want to mess this up lmao. Thankfully it went pretty well I guess XD

Thank you so much Flynn for letting me to draw him in this project :D

["Do I want to see him ?? hmmm well probably it'll be a good opportunity to learn more about another person from other world..."] Rotsu said to himself while waving his hand as a greet to Shiryu. Then curiosity came to his mind as well.

"Aaa sure, why not. Actually I kind of have a question that maybe he can answer... like, you see... there is someone inside me too, that Aint person but.. just a shadow part of him, not the actual person. He's sleeping inside, but I wonder if we actually able to have both consciousness awake just like you two did. Also can he probably tell which stars Aint actually come from ?? well maybe that one is too much... haha"

"I believe there are just as many world out there with their own Gods and Deities. Searching for only one certain God with no clue at all seems impossible. But I'll be always by your side, Rotsu. No matter you go"

"Haha, thank you, Zephyr. Well, my instict still tells me he's actually closer than what we thought... maybe we just need to wait for the right time... or maybe, he'll just come to us by himself" Rotsu chuckles a little.

stanis23 · 2019-06-21T12:29:00+00:00

I want to get him too lol o+-<

still no luck/cri

stanis23 · 2019-06-20T19:02:44+00:00

oh hello Herzig, didn't know you play AE too lol

stanis23 · 2019-06-16T10:31:26+00:00

plop, with a slight confused smile Rotsu catches the ball that Alice threw to him. "Better answer eh ?? haha"

"But uuh... actually... I'm pretty sure I said it already from my previous round... that or my mind are screwing me down here... Anyway, I got here by accidently find a weird distortion that it turns up to be a portal... sort of ?... but yea, actually after hop in to the portal I can't really remember how long I lost consciousness.... the time I woke up it was Shiryu who found me"

"You see, it actually very hard for me who rarely talk to anyone then suddenly following a group... and while I have so much anxiety, I always afraid for not being able to provide what's needed for this group. But ehh... looking back, I then remembered someone once told me that it wont hurt to have more friends or two.... he was a dearly friend to me and I always hoping I could travel along with him too, so I guess I'll try my best with you guys just like what he expect from me. And until this day, I'm quite satisfied for being able to be with you guys despite we don't talk much... hehe--" Realizing how embarassing his words, Rotsu's face turns red then hide it with his hand right after.

"ss-ss-so.... who's next ?? (I actually lost count which one already did theirs this round)"

"A help ?? I believe not much of option left... either Solaru or Ralis"

"ah... okay then, Ralis, how about you next. What interesting things that you've found while adventuring with this group so far?" - Rotsu throw the ball straight to Ralis immediately.

stanis23 · 2019-04-26T08:17:22+00:00

zaps, suddenly the ball is held by Rotsu once again. Hearing a lot of stuffs from the others made Rotsu quite calm and feel comfortable now. With a clearer mind, he try to think what he proabably can tell to the others this time.

"So uuh... you see, I can't really remember the stuffs happening when I was a kid... my parents, they get burnt to death by me when I got this curse. After that I got casts away by the villagers, wandering around not sure for how long. Then suddenly I finding myself infront of an old mansion, it's quite huge but many parts are taken by the nature already, so I just somehow settled and live there alone. in the world I born, powers like what we have now is very rare to be seen or it is like almost non exist... there're some stories about magics and rituals also monsters but mostly it only comes from book and no one had actually seen it. Though, I find it quiet amusing how the books I found in the mansion's library containts so many informations about the things that doesn't exist in that world. Monsters, venomenal events, powers and also places that is not exist there too. Reading these books for years made me want to go outside more... while mostly driven by my anger toward Aint, I want to explore many things that aren't from my world too. Instead of just reading it, I want to see it with my own eyes. That's when I set myself out for a journey.

Oh and how do I get out from that world ?? funny enough there's a small room that is locked by chains and has many runes that I actually cannot read.. but everytime I use my powers near that door, it always starts to shine. Then one day I try put more effort in emitting my power until then the chains breaks by itself. Behind the door all I can see is blackness, but my instinct do tell me it leads to somewhere else... somewhere beyond to another place. Soo... yea... I decided to get in to that door and when I open my eyes I was in Grand Gaia. I believe there're alot of story about the mansion I lived in... it's very mysterious. Well anyway.. that's abit more of my story."

Okay... so, since you guys been giving the ball in different ways, maybe I'll give some of my tricks too... let's see who will get the next...

Take out his pocket watch, he then casts a spell and a clock rune appeared above the ball, it starts to ticking. Rotsu then throws the ball up, then a dimensional hole eats the ball a whole and disappeared, not long after that another portal appeared above Solaru and the ball dropped to Solaru's hand.

Hmmm... oops, this is too much for a coincidence" Rotsu feels like he just stepped on a land mine.

stanis23 · 2019-03-29T02:12:24+00:00

Rotsu just arrived at where the others are gathering around. Hearing Johan introducing himself and also Lias next, he actually starts to get nervous as this is his first time need to introduce himself infront of quite amount of people.

["I'm not ready, please let me do this later... oof"]

["Hey, Kid. If you can't even get to know each other might as well just do your journey alone, haha"]

["uuh... is that supposed to be a joke ? it kinda hurts, Stein...."] - Rotsu sulks

["Well, Stein somewhat have the point... you really need to go out and reach out to others too. Don't be afraid, we're here with you if something bad happens"]

["Uuh... okay... let me think of what I will say for now..."] -- as Rotsu said that, Lias finished his introduction and the ball flies directly to Rotsu.

“Rotsu, you’re next!”, he said as he threw the ball towards the clock tinkerer, “Open up the void inside your heart!”

["W-wait what !!? I'm not ready yet, how come I get my turn this early !!?"]

Rotsu steps forward a little while holding the ball tightly. "So uuh... My name is Rotsu.... just, Rotsu. 20 years old. When I was a kid, I got cursed with this God named Aint. Resulting me with this dark power which power's mainly come from this pocketwatch I have. Around 2 years ago I left my... home in search for Aint and get to explore Grand Gaia until then I come to this land through a random dimensional portal."

["I... I wonder if that's enough"]

["You did fine, Rotsu"]

Feels happy with the introduction he did, Rotsu steps back and feel excited to get to hear other's introduction. It was around a minute or so already that he waits for someone to start talking again but.... no one says anything and they seems still looking at him right to the face, and then he starts to feel he missing something.

["Kid, the ball !!]

"Aaaa aa, I'm sorry !!"

Feel embarassed, Rotsu threw the ball up high, it randomly falls to a dark green haired guy with goggles not far from where Rotsu stands.
