There's the Robe of the Archmagi which is essential for Clerics and Mages, but other than that Rogues, Clerics, Mages and Rangers aren't meant to have high SP because of their other advantages and the roles they play. Barbarians and Knights are meant to be DPS/tank classes that soak up the hits, and need SP. I like the way it is with relatively low SP for most classes. I figure you know this already but just in case...

QM Note: I did. By doing nothing, do you mean recovering from stunned? Because if you do not take an action it will linger.

"Damn!" Hybros snatched at the thin air where the vampire once was. "Let us go quickly." The imp began sprinting down the hall to the lab, where the combination locked door stood in their way. He banged it fist on the door once in frustration. "...Any ideas?"

Must... go... Seriously, this sounds awesome.

Hybros held his scythe tightly, waiting for the vampire to reply to Erik. Maybe there was more information they could get before killing him.

Alright, thank you both.

A question that's probably come up in the past but I'm not clear on: Do attacks that have damage nullified by elemental multipliers or immunities still transfer effects as applicable? For example, if attacking an Ethereal enemy with a fire-elemental weapon that can deal the Sealed-effect, 0 damage is dealt but is Sealed inflicted? How about if high defense nullifies an attack?

"Hm, an indestructible ship, an undead army and a destructive beast? Melville may be insane but he has the firepower to back up his claims. We need to kill him and fast." Hybros nods to Erik. "Then let us check the cannons again." Hybros leads the group back to the canon room and sticks his scythe out the window and swings it upward to try and hit the vampire he hoped was up there.

"Hm. Well if Illdria trusts Jules and he trusts you, then you are trustworthy enough for now." Hybros still eyes Omen suspiciously. "Tell me more about this other from the Cold Circle. Why does it need talking animals to do its work? Why did you and the other one go rogue? I believe I know of the other one... should I warn its companion of the danger he might be in?" Hybros shivered and readjusted his wings. "We should not linger much longer. If Thalion can pick up the staff with those gloves..." He looked over concernedly to the Artisan. "We can check the lookout tower next."

Hybros also reads the memoirs. When he is done, he looks to Omen. "Tell us everything. You are from the Cold Circle? Why did you leave? Or are you still in it? Why did Jules agree to train this maniac? How many other like you are there?" His head was swimming with questions. He could think of one other like Omen who revealed itself to him, a chicken belonging to another hero... He addresses his companions. "How do we even know to believe these memoirs? It seems Melville lost his mind long ago. He could be making it up..."

I strongly agree that healing classes need to be buffed. In general, potions are much more useful because they're a guaranteed, low-cost heal that anyone can use, while Clerics and the like have a 2/3 chance of healing a lot, but it's a big risk to take a turn to heal when it's needed when an enemy could be targeted to prevent a free hit. As an Alchemist I think I've outpaced any healing class in terms of support; potions are chump change for me and I can use them whenever I want to for a guaranteed +10 health (+20 thanks to the Kjor Tongue). It's an awesome skill that I don't think should be nerfed, but when Clerics pale in comparison in terms of healing abilities, there's something wrong. I like this idea a lot. As long as the heals are as or more powerful than potions and there's a guarantee to heal when it's chosen, I think that would go a long way to solve the problem. As for Mages, I think it was Waterbrick Down that brought up the idea of having ether cost be based on power. I like this idea as well because once you have a Prophet or Arch Mage with 70+ ether, spending 1 ether to cast a spell more powerful than a normal attack is nothing. Not to mention the rolls that restore ether.

Hybros frowns at the spectacle and gives Thalion a hand up, careful not to touch the staff that seemed to have strongly affected the elf. "There must be ancient and powerful magic at work here... unless this insanity is of his own making... The same symbol over and over again. Perhaps this Bonaparte admiral took his own interest in these dark arts too far..." While still supporting Thalion by pushing up on his torso (Hybros was too small to lean on), he looks over at the silver objects to try to determine what they were without touching them. "I never took the words so literally, eheh..."

And the Hall is alive once again. I must say that Vind's dialog is impressive. Also... this is still Arthur's last visit?

Spectacular MOC, Nemo! The snow technique is awesome, and I really like the way the houses are built. The lighting is also something to notice as it gives a quiet yet intense vibe with the snow looking as though it's glimmering in the night. At first glance I thought it was the famous last scene in Kill Bill: Volume 1. Wolverine's colors even match.

"How about saving the rest of the fleet from being attacked by necromancers controlling this base?" Hybros rotates the first slot to ship.

OOC: Pie, going through the topic I found this. I think you forgot to add the XP. Hybros inspects the lock, and recalling the scribbles on the back of the game night schedule, flips the pictograms to show a ship, a bird, and another bird in that order. "It seems the Bonapartes have poor taste, not that that is a surprise, eheh. I almost liked this place better when it was crawling with auto... ehem, machines." "Perhaps it is almost time to consider a new career.... heheheh."

QM Note: To be clear, I plan to run that special as activating at the beginning of the next round, according to the wording. Never mind, I've realized that it's meant to activate immediately and go through the next round. Oh, and my Internet is back, hopefully for good this time.

No, you can only use what is listed as suitable.

QM Note: Sorry for the spotty updates lately. My Internet isn't working and I have to update from a library, and I'll also be gone for Wednesday and Thursday this week. Kint, you forgot to distribute one Deadly Venom. The party sees fit to head to Gust Ridge for the next battle. Mountain creatures lurk on the windy rocks sparsely covered with moss. A few Bugbears scout the lands beyond their forest. The Dryad's electric cousin, the Sylph, dances on the tips of her toes. But none take too kindly to the heroes' presence. PREPARE FOR BATTLE!
