Edit: I think, Dantius, the idea is I trust Zarusa, not that Zarusa trusts me (which what your perk description seems to indicate). Sarachim's perk might involve my automaticlly failing all bluff checks against anything Zarusa says. We've already seen what that's like with Vitze and Khielek.

Ooh. Sounds like some pretty cool stuff! I'm especially wondering how we'll get more epic than exploring chaotic and burning Quera or fighting the acid dragon canopy drake. It'll have to be pretty cool - just like this: . Hmm, my main goal for the rest of the campaign: to make at least one useful History check. I wonder if Lanrezac will be able to get a perk or an epic level spell before the end?

When I go to your webpage and click the Revision 1 map, only the top edge of the map loads, and then it stops. It doesn't seem to be working...

Tachyon beams are good for solving all sorts problems, pretty much. At least Commander Data seem to think so. So why haven't you lazy scientists already used them to fix potholes, end the need for temporal anomalies like Daylight Savings Time, and give us flying cars?

So now this thread has transitioned elegantly from science to mad science.

You should know better than to expect logical or consistent applications of arbitrary standards.

Originally Posted By: Sarachim See, it's your head in the sand attitude that makes this perk necessary. Zarusa is out to get you. LOL!!!!!!!!! Yes, I suppose it's a pity the rest of us are plagued by such a lack of vision. I look forward to future bluff checks by Vitze against the party trying to "enlighten" us.

Originally Posted By: Ephesos Triumph: ...whoops. Yeah, the last one was in fact session 6. That has been fixed. Dunno what you mean about it being the fifth, though. Sorry, what I was trying to say was that the most recent session was #6, and the session before the most recent session was fifth. But you understood, so it worked out anyway.

Dude, that's a powerful perk - that's worth two levels of skill points! I confess it's rather scary, though. I mean, do you really want to make it that much easier for Vitze to convince everyone we meet that Zarusa is out to get them? * shudders *

Minor comment on the subject of corrections on the website: Ephesos, on your homepage, the top headline is for Selos session 7. But the previous session of Selos was the fifth. And on the Mote page with the session logs, the file is identified as session 6. Thus I think there's a minor error on the main page. It's not a big deal, but when I went to the page and saw the discrepancy it was a trifle disconcerting. FWIW.

Raving lunatic? I only read the first two books, and while there was plenty to criticize..."raving lunatic" wasn't what came to mind. Interesting. Still, raving lunatics with archery and magical ability would definitely make good candidates for getting tossed into Avernum.

Minor addition: you left off one of Lanrezac's current spells: Zorlock’s Bridge Repair - Create a solid magical barrier in the horizontal plane. I've used it a couple times now, but never as a bridge, oddly enough. However, I was rather pleased with the way it actually worked at temporarily trapping the canopy drake at ground level. Of course, rolling a 20 on that spell probably helped...

Originally Posted By: Nioca Yeah, this was a session I regretted not subbing for. Then again, I probably would have done something stupid like split up or some such. You regretted NOT subbing? Huh. I guess that means the session was pretty fun to watch as well as to play. Well, I'm sure Kundak would have been more lively if you'd been playing him toward the end (as opposed to uncharacteristically hiding behind a rock! LOL). Yeah, it seems that rule number 1 of AIMHack is "Do not wander off alone."

Today on Selos Safari, the intrepid party went dragon canopy drake-hunting, then visited the Walmart of the jungle, where Vitze shopped a long time and Nixak spoke in tongues. And it was pretty epic.

So, we're in the middle of an epic dragon hunt, just in case of the Selos' party's loyal fans were wondering.

Cool! Yeah, the old-school Shaper is pretty impressive-looking.

Huh. So the server move is real, I guess. Very impressive, staging a real server move on April Fools' Day. Downright sneaky, even.

I must say I'm rather disappointed. I was hoping for something hilarious when I check the boards today, but instead my April 1st has been ruined by devastating disappointment of the hopes hyped by this thread. Oh woe.

Duck, Selos is playing this Friday. You're in the Blood Marsh. No worries Congratulations on leveling up Alexander, though.

Yay Selos! Start time of 6 is a change from the usual start time of 5, right? If Duck levels up, it will most likely happen on April 1. The same time Dantius will start a new character who's a philanthropist with jolly disposition.

For real? Wow. Didn't people voluntarily sign up for this?
