Would the Ice King from Adventure Time be a Neverborn-ish character?...

[prototype00]

Hmm, either that or the three dot artifact that makes you a dematerialized wraith that can still attack non-dematerialized targets. (so a defensive pick)...

[prototype00]

Bit of a noob question which I suppose I shouldn't be asking by this point, but for languages, do you buy Each as a separate one dot Merit or is there a:

Language OOOOO merit which I assume would be much expensive by the time you're learning your 4th?

[prototype00]

Good luck, if you have any questions about Death Kitty, fellow forumites and myself have been working out the nuances so feel free to ask....

[prototype00]

Had a gander, the willpower cost is giving me pause on the continuously making/unmaking bit, really. Most people have 5, so doing this more than once is a pretty big opportunity cost.

And it's Ess 3, where I haven't been doing most of my concepting, I must confess....

Ex3 Core Pg 586.



You can use Wood Dragon's Claw while in Animal shape (confirmed in Ask the Devs), and it uses the normal calculation of Dex + Brawl+ Accuracy to hit and Str + 10 + threshold for damage. So she uses it as a Tiny Kitty Cat.

If Sorcery isn't your thing, you can Last Warrior's Unity (Strength Charm) instead for much the same effect with Artifact Razor Claws.

Oh, and just realized in Clash she actually rolls 23 dice (since paired light weapons and all) pre-charms.

[prototype00]

Are Wood Dragon's Claws considered Paired Light Weapons for the purpose of Clashing?

prototype00

[prototype00]

You can either Last Warrior's Unity Artifact Light Weapons onto the cat or use Wood Dragon's Claw which gives you paired Tigers Claw (are wood dragon claws considered paired light weapons?). So like I said, it's the Exalt with the artifact weapons + Cat's inherent +3 Charm bonus to attack....

[prototype00]

Cats have a +3 inherent accuracy buff if you buy one of their latents. (Counts as charm dice, but its basically free once you've shapechanged) So you can do everything someone with the two short daiklaives can do and then add +3 on to that.

[prototype00]

Ah, cool. Yeah, so Light Weapons and you pray that you win the clash. With 21 resting accuracy (no motes spent at all), Death Kitty has a pretty good shot....

[prototype00]

So really, what you want in a Clash is high accuracy, and you want this accuracy cheaply so you can clash all the time.

So the unfortunate thing with a bunch of Lunar builds is that they do nothing for accuracy, just damage or soak.

Except for, ta dah, Death Kitty, which gives +3 resting accuracy more than any base Lunar build, charms and whatnot being equal, (Just ask JohnDoe, he fought one in simulation).

Edit: I'm missing something but do heavy weapons help with Clash?

Regular Combat: If Old Scratch can’t beat his 10 EV, my money’s on Black Tom.

Shapeshifting Combat: Whoever pulls out that “Hope” bullshit first wins I expect....

[prototype00]

So a small coda on Death Kitty as I like to keep all my noodling in one place.

- Was going to make a full moon version of Death Kitty (Black Tom) but realized it’s not enough changes for me to make another post, just:

1.)Avail yourself of all possible Soak Options (Sta 5 + Unusual Hide 5 + Artifact Light 5 + ISOB 6 + Bamboo Hearthstone 2) There, 23 Soak, no motes spent, no enemy can do more than overwhelming to you now.

2.) Max Stamina for above if you want, or don’t, you still have 21 resting Soak.

3. Definitely invest in Divine Predator...

Ooh, another thought: Themed Evocations!

So rather than coming up with a bazillion artifacts and their specific evocations you have:

Three Categories:
- Weapons
- Armor
- Functional

And the following themes:
- Abyssal
- Malfean
- Solar
- Lunar
- Sidereal/Getimean
- Earth
- Fire
- Wood
- Air
- Water

Then you write a suite of Evocations for anyone who has despaired upon reading “Decide with your ST what Evocations XX develops”. For higher artifact ratings, you can...

[prototype00]

2 things:

1. QCs, this is provided for amply by some very talented authors though more is always appreciated.

2. Adventures! Short ones and campaigns! Maybe using the QCs aforementioned for ease of preparation. Full rules for a lazy ST to entertain a table of demigods!

2 is a very sore desire for myself, Honestly.

Kylina Sele, The Black Cat of Wu Jian, Changing Moon Lunar

Kylina Sele would have lived a life of pampered luxury, had she not been born the daughter of a high priced courtesan. Her Father was a Peleps Dragonblood who did not know of her existence, and she grew up, a different kind of pampered, in the sighing hallways and giggling courtyards of Wu Jian's finest house of pleasure.

It was an ecclectic education that she received there, part purveyor of the fine arts, part consummate conversationalist. Prize fighters, undefeated in the West, taught her all they knew, in...

Your question was answered (I think) in the previous Ask the Devs Thread here:





If it is for Wood Dragon's Claw, it's here:
