The Great Genderswitch Caper [OOC]

[Sandman XI]

He's still alive, else he would be D-E-D brand worm food. He's as much alive as he is dead. We had this little discussion in Low Places. Avenger pinged off of him as a swirly black mess of unlife as did the other vampire and the Necro-King.

Holding my action until Doc does something :P

.... LOLWUT?

He's not alive, he has no Con score. "Else he would be worm food" makes no frakkin' sense whatosever given the tons of stories about vampires and other undead that aren't worm food.

He's not "as much alive as he is dead," he has no life in him at all, no metabolic processes. He doesn't eat, he doesn't bleed, he's a magically animate corpse. He's said as much in this very adventure.

But I suppose an undead could ping off Detect Life in the same way a "dead magic zone" could ping off Detect Magic: noticeable by the utter absence of the thing you normally detect in something which should have the thing you detect.

Holding my action until Doc does something

Then something shall I do!

Standard action to reconfigure Gadgets to

Corrosion 5 (Flaws: Action/Full Round, Distracting)

Use an HP to surge & gain another standard action, then use a full round to corrode a 5x5 foot section of floor.

[Sandman XI]

Misunderstandings we has. I thought unlife was still "alive" for the purpose of Detect Life since Avenger gave me a reading on the unliving things in Low Places. Both arguements make sense. Magical corpses are still corpses. Though sentient, sapient beings that still live on after death are somewhat... alive?

Now for my turn, I need to know how far the drop is and what I see down there before I just go jumping down a hole.

Depends on how they "live on after death." Time Lord-style Regeneration? Yes, b/c they died but then came back to life. Vampire or other undead? Nope, their bodies are fully dead.

Now for my turn, I need to know how far the drop is and what I see down there before I just go jumping down a hole.

No, first we need to see if I actually managed to cut through the floor ;)

[Ecalsneerg]

... you didn't take Precise and you're going to cut around yourself!? OK, you drop through, but thank your gods you have Impervious and don't take falling damage :P

[Sandman XI]

(14:28:14) Sandman_XI: how far is the jum?

(14:28:17) Sandman_XI: jump

(14:28:40) Sandman_XI: can i lower myself in?

(14:29:03) Ecalsneerg: It's a 15' drop, so DC 17 Toughness

(14:29:45) Ecalsneerg: And I'd say lowering yourself in is Climb

(14:30:11) Ecalsneerg: Bear in mind it won't be an easy DC, it wasn't Precise Corrosion so it's all cracked and caved in, not a smooth cut

(14:30:48) Sandman_XI: would tumbling be easier?

(14:30:55) Sandman_XI: er, acrobatics

(14:31:17) Ecalsneerg: Acrobatics is dropping in, Climb is lowering yourself in

(14:31:54) Sandman_XI: Which would be easier?

(14:32:29) Ecalsneerg: You roll, then I tell you if you pass or fail. That's how it works

(14:35:15) Sandman_XI: I'd need to roll 18 or better on the acrobatics check >.>

(14:35:30) Sandman_XI: here goes nothing

(14:35:39) Ecalsneerg: Toughness?

(14:36:11) Ecalsneerg: Seriously, you'd have to roll horrendously just to get bruised

(14:36:11) Sandman_XI: invisiblecastle is down

(14:36:30) Ecalsneerg: Roll it here then

(14:36:57) FreedomBot: Sandman_XI rolls 1d20 and gets 14.

(14:37:22) Sandman_XI: +2

(14:37:30) Ecalsneerg: Climb?

(14:37:48) Sandman_XI: acrobatics

(14:38:07) Ecalsneerg: You fall in the hole

(14:38:11) Sandman_XI: i lessen the fall by 11 feet

(14:38:29) Ecalsneerg: Hmm

(14:39:00) Sandman_XI: i still fall

(14:39:01) Ecalsneerg: Ok, you fall harmlessly

(14:39:08) Sandman_XI: hooray!

(14:39:20) Ecalsneerg: Post this to the forums

[Sandman XI]

(14:40:42) Sandman_XI: Wait, harmlessly? as in I land well?

(14:41:22) Sandman_XI: enough to get a shot in on otaku?

(14:41:22) Ecalsneerg: Well, you take no damage

(14:41:57) Ecalsneerg: And you can try to take a shot on the supergenius aware of your coming in his own lair

(14:42:39) FreedomBot: Sandman_XI rolls 1d20 and gets 20.

(14:42:42) Sandman_XI:

(14:43:37) Sandman_XI: it's at times like these i wish i had a damage effect

(14:43:44) Ecalsneerg: What does that total to?

(14:43:52) Ecalsneerg: As in, attack roll?

(14:44:03) Sandman_XI: yes

(14:44:21) Ecalsneerg: ...

(14:44:30) Ecalsneerg: What does that total to is not a yes or no question

(14:44:49) Sandman_XI: natural 20

(14:45:04) Ecalsneerg: And?

(14:45:08) Sandman_XI: 28 inall

(14:45:12) Ecalsneerg: If it doesn't normally hit, it's not a crit

(14:45:26) Sandman_XI: wait a minute

(14:45:45) Ecalsneerg: Now, go post what you're doing so I can actually respond

(14:45:57) Ecalsneerg: And trim the logs, we already have a wall of text :P

[Ecalsneerg]

Sandy, as I said in that last line, could you trim it? Like only the really pertinent stuff? I don't need a wall o' text OOC.

And what attack and DC? EDIT: Shouldv'e been clearer, end of hallway is two move actions, i.e. 60'

[Dr Archeville]

... you didn't take Precise and you're going to cut around yourself!? OK, you drop through, but thank your gods you have Impervious and don't take falling damage

Doc has Flight, she needn't have fallen at all But I really should've spelled that out earlier, so a-falling I do go.

So what's Wesley crit'ing Otaku with?

[Sandman XI]

Paralyze 14. This is not tendril Wesley yet. This is glowy aura Wesley :P

[Ecalsneerg]

(21:05:58) FreedomBot: Ecalsneerg rolls 1d20 and gets 9.

Hmmm... So I'll Fiat so he's only slowed. HP to Wesley.

Dark Star, you're up (I'm delaying Geckolass so she can go at the same time as the androids and simplify my life)

[Cyroa]
