Well, I asked about the spell and Smartfire is a fire without heat... It's weird. And death discernment? ...what? xD

Also, Vodka's hammer is a Piko-Piko hammer that evolves with every level... So, Goldion Hammer is totally possible at some point. xD

EDIT:

Came back from the session. So, the big events of the session:

1. Bought Vodka a Piko-Piko hammer that grows in power every time she levels up or gets older.

2. Cider lost his amazing, yet OP'd armor and got more balanced stuff.

3. Party got caught in a Chaos Storm. Cider's limbs became a natural part of him (meaning he has natural wings, steel fangs, and third arm) and Vodka's hair changed to white, because her ice affinity reached its maximum. She also aged 2 years in the Storm. She can now breath an ice attack, matching her father who got a breath attack through his teeth.

4. We crit'd on an encounter and fought our very first draconic opponent: A Magma Wyvern. Although is posed a challenge, after critting on 2 of my 3 uses of my breath attack, I dealt enough damage to bring it down to 1 HP. The DM decided to let me hit this thing on the last hit, just because by this point, he realized the poor thing had no chance at winning after the second breath attack.

For the record: The Breath Attack I did made D10*10 damage and after the chaos storm could hit up to three targets or a single target 3 times. So, at one point during a crit, I rolled a 10*10 roll... 400 damage.

So, this is what Vodka looks like statwise, now:

Level 11, time for new spells

Thinking I'll take Animate Objects so every battle features my new singing, dancing army of deadly toasters.

[Drathi]

...and suddenly being able to blow stuff up seems not so cool compared to that. xD

Also, my DM just nerfed my metal breath attack, when we met today. We killed a wyvern that was supposed to kill us in 3 turns last session, becase I was able to deal 300 damage to it at the max with one attack. I crit'd twice, so I dealt almost 600. xD In exchange for the nef, I now have a really nice number of times I can use it during battle.

D10*10 damage... I have something to help conserve my spells. XD

One of my players slow clapped a pivotal narrative point in the game tonight.

7 sessions later, it was worth building to.

Well, his armor was OP'd in the sense that every single magic and physcal attack would tink off me without a complex action to aim for my face or specifically at my armor.

The thing about scale armor is that if it's not a set, it can break. The DM and I compromised outside of a session about this and we went for a mor balanced set of armor. While I could pretty much resist a volcanic eruption spell with my magic defense (Funny story about this was that the enemy that did this failed to damage anyone on our party, but wiped out his whole party with it.) with it, I had no chance of survival against psychics with a measly 5 Mental Defense. XD However, we haven't faced many psychics. I still have crappy Mental Defense, so my friend and I are asking about ways to keep me alive during fights against psychics. One involves my friend's character fighting the other psychic in a 1 on 1 battle in my character's mind, if I'm invaded. XD

So, pretty much we fought a guy called "Corrupted Taoist." The DM was just incredibly evil by turning all of my armor into its base components. I kept two of my three sleeves and my boots.

...should I feel glad that I'm the reason the DM is removing Scale Armor from the game next campaign? XD

And yes, that's what I wanted to say to him, but then I remembered that this campaign kicks some logic to the curb. xD

[Drathi]

I used to be OP'd defensively. Now, the DM has told me that I will have to kill my character off, because he's now just too powerful for his level. He's also 20% dragon, thanks to the dragonic bits he attatched to him--his teeth, wings, and now a lightning sac that gives him a second breath attack; lightning.

That and our healer now has a dragon egg that will hatch into a Lightning Wyvern eventually.

His breath attacks:

Metal- D10 x10 Metal/Piercing damage. 8 times/day
Lightning- D10^2 Lightning Damage. 3 times/Day

His pistol also did 50 damage on a lightning wyvern with 30 DEF thanks to my character's Blazing hands. It adds +d12 to the end of my attack roll. My DM nerfed it to that after I just raped something very powerful again with my Blaze bonuses. I had a +29 to Blaze Effects... so 3 D10 +29... I find ways to break the game and then the DM makes it so I can never do that again. xD

My damage output is just crazy. My only real weakness is psychics. One of them invaded my mind and nearly killed our healer with my metal breath.


Other stuff:
Next year is when I am DM, so this is going to be very fun to work off of with a sequel adventure, if anyone from the initial party is still alive. It'll be 3 years after the end of this campaign, so the 6 year old character can become biologically 11 years old (old enough to travel in this campaign.).

I'm thinking of having the party members of the previous campaign (including her as an NPC for this campaign) roll a D4 to determine how many levels they gained in the 3 years they were apart. That and any pets grow, so our catgirl's kitsune pet and our healer's soon-to-be-dragon will grow a lot(apparently the 50 foot dragon we killed was actually 3 years old, so...). As for our previous DM, his character might end up being scaled up to par with the rest of the characters.

So, basically, he needs a way to become 5 percent more zombie to keep his patchwork body and undead status. Luckily, we never fight many things that I can take stuff from anymore.

Good thing about this is that he is making an Order Storm do logical changes to our party eventually. I don't want my one character--my main's daighter-- to lose her dual affinity, so when they get caught, my main will be taking a double hit of Order. If I get two bad rolls, I can eother be made permanently dead or return alive, but just age 300 years... still die.

Basically order storms make logical changes. My whole character is illogical, because he's an undead abomination at this point. I hope that the possibility of becoming a Dracolich is still possible in the Order Storm.

My DM officially hates me. xD My dice were crit-happy last session and I ended up just curbstomping almost every mini-boss we encountered in the dungeon. In addition, he now knows that very good at working the system he sets up.

The first mini-boss was a crab/human/abomination and he had this charge attack that did x Dice per turn charged D20 x2 damage and to do it, he had to open his mouth and reveal an eye that charged it up. I had a +2 DEX mod to my stats, so I just whipped out my nazi gun (it's some kind of PPK, I forget what) and just shot at its eye three times. It counted as a complex action, which meant that I had to roll a 15 or higher modded by dex to hit it with all three shots, which would do triple damage for each shot. I got a crit and he stopped me from making it x6 damage, because that would actually just kill it in one shot. Even with x4 damage, I did over 300 damage to a monster at 400/400 HP. My gun does 4 D10 piercing damage +D12 Blaze Damage. I also had a skill called Might Aura used on me, which added an extra D10 to my damage rolls.

That poor bastard got just destroyed.

The next mini-boss was a Roc at the top of the tower of the dungeon. It was guarding a chest and I tried to take it on in the sky in my first aerial battle. The DM had it do a complex action to swipe its claws at me and missed, then it followed up with its beak and I blocked with a spell that blocks all attacks not Arcane/Dimension/Psychic. Then he hit the whole party for unavoidable D10, armor ignoring damage and we all had to save for D8 turns of stun. I took it like a boss and then critted again. I shot my gun at it two times and hit it for around 200 damage, bringing its HP down by half with the first shot. Then I let the party finish him off.

After that we fought just some Anubi (Anubises?). Now, what made this fight significant was that they were immune to Blunt and Slashing damage, which means most of my attacks did not work. That and it's the only battle I didn not crit. Then I remembered that not too far from us was a pit that went into one of the magma tunnels of the world. So, I told the other guys to have their characters run to the other side of the monsters so that their backs were turned to the pit. Then I used a spll I only used once. Its damage is pathetic, but I have found better uses for it now. I used two of my charges of a spell called Crushing Void and sucked two monsters into the voids, which then spat them back out into the pit. The rest of the party started following suit, but then our Healer and psychic got knocked prone. I had the knight help our healer as our psychic's robot helped up the Psychic. They knocked the monsters into a nice circle and I was looking for an attack that could hit them all without using any magic. Then I remembered I had a Fire Bomb from a long time ago. I chucked it at them and the explosion blew them all to the edge of the pit. When it was the monsters' turn, some fumbled and fell into the pit.

Now, for the greatest curbstomp since White Belt Karate Joe from the beginning of the campaign, we fought our first scientist. What was worse was that it had acid based attacks that could ruin my armor and stun me, which was why I blocked his irst attack with my shield spell. Good news ws he wore cloth armor and the DM completely forgot that I could just utterly destroy this poor man. I critted three times. I critted on initiative, I critted on the hit roll and then I critted for a continuation. First I impaled him with a Heat Lance twice and just brought him down to 150/500 HP thanks to piercing ignoring cloth. Then our knight followed up by cutting his legs off dealing 100 damage. The rest of the party was stunned and the scientist was just in too much pain to move (much like poor Karate Joe, when we cut off his leg). I critted again... The DM just groaned and let me do my best attack just because I could and I have never used it:

My lightning breath combined with my metal breath= Railgun Breath. Now, unfortunately, now I have to watch Railgun to get what they were talking about. When they said it, i just imagined my character shooting electrified railroad spikes from his mouth. After this fight, I leveled up and my DM got so angry with himself when he realized I got full HP and my spells recharged thanks to his rules.

Last session got cut short by one of the guys of the building kicking us out at midnight. We usually stayed up until 1, but its finals week so... Basically, we're fighting a giant golem and its first attack was to fall on top of me. Now, if it hit me it would do 10 D20 Blunt damage and I'd have to hardsave for Death. So, I blocked it with my recharged shieldspell. Unfortunately, it just laid on top of the shield until it went out. When everyone in my party (except me) had their turn, I'd get hit still. So, I told our healer to activate his once per day skill called Aegis, which cancels out all damage. He saved my life as the others tried knocking a 2 ton golem off of me...

...how my zombie body withstood 2 tons for that long is a mystery to me.

So, my character is currently underneath a golem, unscathed and crawling out. xD

The DM is out to kill me for having crit happy dice and really taking advantage of the systems he creates. The good news is that I won't have to worry about my character's daughter ever dying. She's too OP'd as well and she's only 6 years old. So when I get into the next campaign I'm not DMing, I'll have to make a new character. The little girl won't be gone though. She's becoming an NPC and an aclimation character for people who want to tutorial the mage class.

So, basically it is what I'm thinking... Raidroad spikes flying at insane speeds.

sounds like the peasant railgun



cept it actually works rather than twisting the rules around
