>>31801
I thought all Outsiders had Auras?
Also, what's Tracy's level? Is it overwhelming?

I need to leave in a bit more than 30 mins, to go to a parade my brother is in...
>>31802
Ah, wait. I was mistaken for Fae's aura.
Idk what Tracy's is though.

>>31801
"Good, I will prepare Mr. Trash Man for summoning. In the meantime..."
Torc begins to walk towards the stables, hoping to catch Trollestia before he leaves.
the sound of spaghetti launchers cocking can be faintly heard

>>31800
Brings a shaking hand down to pet pony, but is entirely unable to look at her. He appears to be shaken and disturbed, with a sort of thousand yard stare

>>31802
Technically, everyone has an aura, but most auras are only discernable by detection spell/ability, except where specifically indicated. Fae, as an example, does not have a specific aura, so her aura pertains to her alignment, the intensity determined by HD.
Tracy has an obvious (and in some cases visible) aura, of a particular distinction and intensity,... but its nothing next to Thez'. Xp
>>31804
21 Spaghetti Salute

>>31806
>21 spaghetti salute
Yep

Alright, I'm gonna do some meat-space for a bit. When I get back, Thez is gonna have the I'nis compass in hand. So, Infernius' player, I hope you have an idea of where he went, where he's going, what he's been doing, what he is doing, what he will be doing, etc. Alot of this is going to be on the fly on my end, but you've still got creative license on this. I'll open up rabbit then too so we can have sekret discussion about where/what next.

>>31809
I have a idea.

Can Tracy mount a Repeating Hand Crossbow on one of her Demon Claws?

>>31810
>still here yay
>has an idea
Well, that makes one of us Xp

>I'm gonna have to do meatspace shit in an hour
>probaly will be 2 hours before I'm back
UGH

>>31811
That's a bit much.. actually.. Idk if repeating hand crossbows even exist.
She could just make a hand crossbow. and use it with the claws.
Lightning claws would be awesome though. Just like in 40k.
>>31813
Me too....

>>31811
>>31814
Respond to your husbando. He needs to know if he is riding you or Fae
Either seems to have advantages and disadvantages to me

>>31815
"You can ride me any time, ~Flashy."

I g2g for hours now, sorry..

>>31816
No problem, see you then

>>31816
nice friendship marines.

>>31811
Uhm,... just,... how do you plan to operate said repeating hand crossbow? Realize that the demon claws don't offer much in the way of dextrous precision re pic >>31694

>>31818
>I know nothing about Warhammer
Should I just kms?
>>31819
Youre still here?
Is Troll at the stables?

Wup, looks like the parade's cancelled, for me that is.. I can still post, but I have to do some stuff, so I can't commit my full autism for the next 30 mins.
>>31819
I was mostly shitposting/daydreaming there...
Can the Claws be retractable though? I feel like that's a bit necessary, considering their effects.

>>31820
I would say yes but you cant learn about them that way.

>>31822
Fair enough of an answer

>>31821
Nice.

Welp, I gtg.
I'll probily be back in about 2 hours give or take.
Don't do anything groundbreaking while I'm gone

>>31825
*sad parasite noises*

*Scared Paladin Noises*

>>31828
Paladins are immune to fear. Don't be a bitch.

>>31828
*smug parasite noises*

Close enough
Okay. Thez <wooofs> moments later with a huge chest. Opening it, she digs out a pair of bracers, a modified, double-bladed glaive, a pair of rings, and 2 bracelets.
No rage sword, no murder mace, no despoiler, no lion's shield. Otherwise everything is there (funky chain can be assumed to be Tracy's previous one modified)

Forgot pic

>>31832
>>31831
...There's going to be consequences for all this stuff, isn't there?

>>31832
fuggin saved.

>>31833
This whole thing is a big consequence,... to me more than anyone e_e

>>31835
I just want to know the location we are going to, and basic intel on it soon enough. I still haven't resolved the question of which mount I'm taking, but there are certain locales that make the choice a no-brainer

>>31835
sorry then.

>>31835
Oh..

>>31835
I don't know, this quest seems like the perfect quest of atonement for Trumpaladin

Pls no nerf Paladin abilities

>>31839
>atonement
???

>>31840
When a Paladin falls, besides seeking the atonement spell, they are usually also tasked with completing a quest in order to regain standing with their deity. This also works well for the basic idea behind crusaders, which is that many of them wanted indulgences, and the Church specified fighting in the Holy Land as the price of the indulgence.

>>31841
Yeah, I get that much.
Are you falling?

>>31842
I certainly hope not

>>31836
I still don't know where we're going.
"Hey Tracy, you still got those bottles?"
She means the spherical bottle and the wee skull-shaped bottle, both of which have 1.5k jeweled corks.

>>31843
Well, if you ever get tired of being a White Knight, you'll be welcome on the Dark Side.

>>31844
"Yep."
*pulls out bottles*

Tracy leaves towards the stables, wanting to cram-in a few more moments with her birds before leaving on a journey to Godknowswhereistan.

*feeds birds*

>>31845
Kek, the Blackguard in Pic 2 is still wearing his Knights Templar uniform.

You keep suggesting this like twice every thread, so I think it deserves a serious answer. There are real benefits to the Paladin class and Good alignment that would be lost if alignment were changed. The most severe loss would be the loss of Vanderiem. Vanderiem can only be wielded by a Paladin and bestows negative energy on Evil characters, but he gives +5 on all attacks against Good and Neutral, a +7 against Evil, besides critical hits automatically succeeding and other benefits. (Even if he is reluctant to kill children). I would also lose Fae, who would be missed. The Paladin Spell list, while not great, is still meaningful. And I'd lose Smite Evil, which is also a considerable loss.

Having said all that, after I get to level 20 of Paladin, I'll probably go for multiclassing rather than Epic Paladin levels

>>31845
>>31849
It does seem though that Black guards with levels in Paladin get some extra benefits to make up for the trade-off

>>31849
Epic levels r gay
>>31846
"Good, we'll need both."

>>31850
11th or 21st is best level to fall under normal game rules; although if he traded in all of his levels now, he's get an Epic Bonus Feat.
What's his base attack bonus, as of now?
>>31849
>I'll probably go for multiclassing rather than Epic Paladin levels
If you're going to take it all the way to that level, just fall, worship a war god, and then level up in Divine Emissary. Then you'd get Domain Spells.
https://dnd-wiki.org/wiki/SRD:Divine_Emissary

>>31853
Oh, I can't even begin to tell you how hilarious it is that you said that.

>>31851
What will we need them for, and where are we going?
*Scared Paladin Noises*
Pic related sort of

>>31852
>Base attack bonus
+16 +11 +6 +1
If you asking for the class prequisites, he should have that covered. He'd need to grind to get the feats. The ranks are probably the hardest part, although obtainable if he advances in classes. He'd also need to summon an Evil Outsider with whom he is in peaceful contact, but I feel like I should also know the answer to that.

>Divine emissary
Okay, how could I do that? Because Magic is the thing I am craving most

>>31853
That's... an interest idea. I would want to Try to retain Fae too though. I haven't tried having sex with her, I feel like that should do something

>>31854
Hilarious as in really dumb, or hilarious as in funny?
Also, just so I understand, Vadereim is an Intelligent Holy Devastator, right?

>>31856
Vaderiem is a remnant from a previous campaign who has been used before. My guess is he meant either that Vanderiem was originally evil alignment and then switched by wish, or that some other player tried to do what you suggested to him

>>31857
I also suspect this.

>>31855
"He told you, he doesn't know!"
>>31856
Definitely funny
>>31856
He's an infernal slaying bane sword of quickened sharpness, who isn't actually holy, <HEY!> that's just what he tells people <SHUT IT YE!> and that he can be wielded by any class of good alignment. <G'AAAAH>

>>31857
I also suspect this.

>>31857
I also suspect this.

>>31859
>>31861
>>31862
reeeeeeeee

>>31863
I feel like you have a whole future planned out for my character that I did not intend on

>>31864
This

>>31865
Its not like i meant to post that three times or anything baka.

What I do know is that I can employ random encounters, as well as plausible consequences and affects per the environment in question (and will), and:
"Oh yeah, you'll want to leave a drop of blood in the entertron. You know,... "In case of bloody murder."" she says over-exaggerating the possibility of getting slaughtered.

>>31865
You have no idea.
I didn't make those flowcharts for nothing. The booklet may be gone, but I know the plans by heart.

>>31867
>leave a drop of blood in the entertron
Sure, why not?

>>31860
Is that even possible? The description for "Wish" says it can create magic items, but can it alter existing items?

>>31867
She should know better than to spook Trumpaladin. He's already spooked.

>>31868
....

>>31871
>He's already spooked
He's (still) a Paladin; he's immune to fear.
Don't be a bitch. Cowardice is against Code.

>>31870
If Trump goes apeshit-blackguard? I'd so allow it. Besides, he wouldn't have to change alignment at all; he'd still be Trump Good!
>>31869
"Good. Also, I had these made," she coughs up the two bracelets (of friends). She has marked a charm on each of them.

*polishes helmet for the 6 gorillionth time*
I've spent more than enough time on this thing.
>>31871
"Flashy, would you like to try this helmet on?" She says, holding out a goldsteel helmet that looks like a Trojan/Equestrian helmet, with a football helmet's cage-visor, and a red crest.
"I made it specially for you."

>>31873
>he wouldn't have to change alignment at all; he'd still be Trump Good
Stephen F. Austin sent a group of several hundred immigrants illegally into Mexican territory. When they found that the Mexican government had abolished slavery, they started a rebellion against the Mexican government with the intent of taking the territory and ultimately admitting it into the Union as another Slave State to balance out free-state power in the senate. Stephen F Austin is celebrated in our Fourth Grade history classes as the hero who more than anyone created the world we live in today.

The Paladin class seems to be modeled on the Catholic Military Orders of the Crusades. And my specific character, or rather his Patron, is modeled on the America of James K Polk, William McKinnely, Richard Nixon, and Donald Trump. From a certain perspective, these are heros worthy of praise and bringers of Good. From another, they are villains and oppressors. And both claims have more than enough basis in fact to be valid

>>31874
*stares at pony strangely*
*Takes helmet though, but does not put it on*
"Uh... what is this exactly, little pony?"

>>31875
Is LBJ a saint?

>>31875
*wing-ding eyes*
"Wear it and see! I spent weeks working on it."
[excited pony noises]

>>31876
Of Failure, maybe. Fucker created the welfare state, started a draft to fight a bush war in South East Asia yet held back the B52s and... Just don't get me started.

>>31877
"Uh... Thank you, Tracy..."
*smiles nervously*
*Still hasn't put it on*

>>31878
*stares*

>>31879
*Smiles nervously back at evil pony*

>>31880
*stares expectantly*
*wraps tail around ankle*

>>31881
"Um... maybe later, little pony"

>>31882
*tail is secured tightly around ankle*
"We have time. Try it on."
*smiles happily*

>>31883
"I think Thez was making another helm for me to wear..."

>>31884
"This one will be more useful on a daily basis, Flashy. I crafted it with your hobbies in mind."

>>31885
"Uh... do you mind if I ask what those hobbies are, from your perspective?"

>>31886
"Business and other talky-stuff."

>>31888
"L-Let me think about it, little pony"
*pats pony on head*
"I feel like we haven't resolved our issues, little pony"

>>31890
"I worked very hard on that helmet, Flashy. Please try it on."

>>31890
There is a flash-step helmet in the chest, but it provides no armor benefit. It looks very much like a cheesy super-hero mask, made with brightly tanned and dyed leather straps.

>>31895
"Why don't you try it on first, Little pony? I think it would look super adorable on you"

>>31897
"I'm a divegrass player, Flashy: it'd be ruined if I wore it. Besides, you couldn't tell it's affect unless you were wearing armor." (stop making me spoil shit, and wear the helmet, pussy)

>>31898
"Divegrass is a relationship deal breaker, Trixie"
He says this as if not focused on his words
Have we not established that he and I are pussies?

>>31900
PLADINS CAN'T BE PUSSIES! Wear the fucking helmet!
"I haven't played it since we got here, but it wouldn't change that I played it before...
Please put on the helmet."

>>31900
"Be careful of that helmet, some of those things fuck with your mind," Thez says off-handedly.

>>31901
They're allowed to be pussies if they know what is going on
"C-Can I wait, Trixie?"

>>31904
"I, Aye, I know"

>>31905
No they're not. And he doesn't know what's going on.
"I've waited long enough to give this to you, Flashy. Please try it on."

And stop comparing her to shithorse!

>>31908
He knows enough
"And... Thank you for the gift, Dixie... buuuuuut waz it dooo"

>>31909
"See for yourself. It's a surprise."
