Moving this here from the in-character thread. Anyone can use the rod. No weapon proficiency needed. It doesn't matter anyway, because it has its own attack bonus.
It would be better suited in someone that has full martial weapon proficiency and wanted to use it for melee combat.
Nela is more than glad to give it up to such a person. She had done her time studying enough to understand it is an exotic weapon of sorts. Something she isn't very interested in keeping or using.
LOL. And saves crew members from suffering how she does eat food which is very much like a wild animal. Rule one. Never try to take food away from her as she does bite. Would be safer to take food away from Kitty. At least she might think a moment before removing your hand and arm. Too bad Nela doesn't have a bite attack, so that mean you will have to suffer a lot as she isn't fast about taking your hand and arm off.
She is more likely to be caught drinking from her metal flask of rum. And if anyone has ever been noticing, she seems to never run out of it and funny cause the ship's supply probably has been out for a quite a while.

Question. I'm not sure how 5e treats Rods and such. Back in days of 3.5/pathfinder it was more caster item. Is this true in 5e? or can really anyone use a rod? Purple Tentacle Whip is the item in question.OOC:
Original design of the PC as more for combat, but in play she isn't really a combatant. Combat is kinda a secondary thang for her and she survives doing it is all.OOC:
Being this Purple Tentacle Whip is really an exotic weapon as opposed to a caster type rod and 5e would place it as a Martial Weapon. Since there is no exotic weapons in 5e. I'm guessing it would take Martial Weapon Proficiency to use it and gain your proficiency bonus? And Nela being a druid has a very exacting list of weapons, so she would not gain her proficiency bonus with it either.It would be better suited in someone that has full martial weapon proficiency and wanted to use it for melee combat.

Oh on a side note. Nela casted goodberry and had her daily nutrition meal and why she is rather lean. She has nine more goodberry left. And YES, Nela is nearly tapped out of spell power and really needs a long rest.LOL. And saves crew members from suffering how she does eat food which is very much like a wild animal. Rule one.

OH. And Happy Easter. Nela does own a box of chocolate. She does not SHARE. Just in case your where thinking to indulge. She rarely has eatten them.She is more likely to be caught drinking from her metal flask of rum.

Sorry for lack of updates! Tied up at work. I expect the smoke to clear tomorrow, so will post Magda's responses, what Nela sees, etc. then. Thanks for your patience!

Been playing almost exclusively on mobile for the past few months. Playing is hard. DMing is hell. It's been nigh impossible to run combat. That, more than anything else, has caused delays in me updating the two games I run.
So expect less reliance on die rolls from now on, at least on my end. When you do something that forces a creature or NPC to make saving throw, or opposed check, do me a favor and roll it for me (put the DC in the roll description). Thanks for bearing with me!

No worries Jabes! I play mostly on mobile as well and my new phone can be finicky about rolling for some reason.
Apr 30, 2019 4:08 pm
oh man i tried mobile for a bit and just couldnt get around to getting used to it. let alone all the copy pasting i'm doing and the 4 windows open per game i run XD
You do you brother, whatever we can do to stress you less.

From what Jabes had mentioned somewhere, it's about a mile from the reef to shore, so it'd be a heck of a swim.campeador says:
OOC:
I could probably swim for miles and miles, but we're trapped in this maze.Silent says:
OOC:
Would the spell Freedom of Movement help us out here?Modern day athletes have swum great distances so it's not far-fetched that heroes like the PCs can do it, specially because you are all currently able to breathe water thanks to Nela's spell. As @campeador notes, Zale can swim for miles and miles, and faster than any of you, but the real problem is the really the maze rather than the water, although @Cave is also right: who knows what dangers are out there? The village Elder does hint at some danger lying in wait.
I'm afraid Freedom of Movement doesn't help here. Or rather, it will help in some spots but won't be enough to get you through most of it. In most places the reef presents an actual barrier rather than just making the terrain difficult.

Btw, @Nela you can see the battle happening. You are quite a ways from the beach but the Elder's place is on a rise and they have a good view of the bay. I'm sorry I didn't make that clear.
We've established that Magda and Lena are in the boats with the PCs. Valrakas is back on the Kestrel. What about Kitty? And what about Khiiral? I haven't heard from Oxbox in a while. For this battle, it's your choice whether:
1) Khiiral is on the Kestrel, and cannot participate in the battle because reasons.
2) Khiiral is in the boats with the PCs. One of the other players will control Khiiral.
3) Khiiral is in the boats with the PCs. The DM will control Khiiral.

Kitty is still on Kestrel as I doubt there is any willing way she would go on a boat if she didn't have to. I'm sure Kitty HATES water. Although she is now dried out from the last surprise wave that took her off the boat. Sure she is only waiting for someone to bring her a nice FAT chunk of meat. Maybe three.
She incidentally is trolling the deck waiting. Mostly killing time waiting to be fed. She knows there is no rats or anything else left to the ship that she hasn't already killed. We have a clean ship.

I will be going on my first vacation in a really long while. Will be traveling May 16-23. I will most likely be absent from the site for the duration.

My flight leaves in a few hours, so that's probably it from me for about a week. Catch you all on the other side! :-)

Looks like we're getting somewhere with the haggling thanks to a successful bluff by Jineer!
Obviously, silvering a weapon takes time. Are you postponing the hunt til tomorrow, or are you heading out with loaned weapons?
Heading overland, or sailing around the island to Magda's cove?
