    My newbie questions

    I guess you don't know what an emulsifier is -- ever seen how detergent can be employed to mix oil and water? :lol: Well, but really - I didn't think that I was opening such a giant can of worms. I hope that everyone is having fun. I see that this question was posed in the ARC area.

    My newbie questions

    Not quite what I was asking - although a little bit tongue in cheek, I was asking what would happen if a healing potion and a necromatic potion where to be combined - not mixed into food - that is if they where to be mixed together in the same container. It WAS tongue in cheek ... along the...

    Resist Command: How many is enough?

    Steve, We've discussed this, before: if you used them all up, buy another as soon as you get a chance. It's just like Toddo said. But, I agree with Deadlands that most pointy eared people are not usually subjected to command effects because they have RESIST COMMAND as a racial skill. And as...

    My newbie questions

    Well, I did turn them in so that they could be sent for destruction -- her way was not the way I would have opted -- but she was reassigned to other places at a later date. So, if a Cure Light Wounds potion is mixed with a Cause Light Wound potion, what do you think would be the IG result?

    R O T F L M F A O ! ! ! Mark - Thanks. I just got off a boring call when I got back to The Boards and read your reply - I now have a HUGE smile on my face. Um, no thank you to Mercedes Lacky -- I prefer my fantasy to be the Live Action Role Playing kind ... or more the kind of fiction written...

    OOG quotes IG

    Biata of a feather flock together. The grass is always greener where necromancy is never practiced. See a copper, pick it up, but watch out that you don't get stabbed while you are doing it.

    Latex axes/maces.

    Thanks, I'm thinking about getting one of those little daggers for cutting out friends from entangles. $25 isn't much to help upgrade my costuming.

    My newbie questions

    Well ... no, actually. I think that maybe our earth magic tags are green for the same reason that my character dresses in green ... and why, I think, we associate green foliage with calling upon the power of the earth from which all healing comes, and why my character's patria (see the Caldaria...

    My newbie questions

    I don't know what his specific thought process was, but the rules say: "You must have an actual scroll phys rep for each scroll tag." I believe that, by the rules of English grammar, the pronoun "an" indicates individuation, and that it is further reinforced by the phrase "for each scroll tag"...

    My newbie questions

    Well, actually a scroll has to be at least 16 square inches -- so I think you meant to say no MAXIMUM dimension - and, yeah, you're right -- if you wanted to make a scroll the size of a cloak you could. However, (IG I am a master scroll maker, so I have often conducted thinking experiments which...

    My newbie questions

    The potions phial reps I buy are darned near indestructible. a funny story involving this: One day my character brought some "Cause" potions he found on a baddy (they where tags, only, which where unrepped, so I repped them right away) which he brought to the Order of Light to be destroyed. The...

    Okay - my bad --- I am at work, trying to split my attention between calls, paperwork, and the inanities of Alliance Talk. My priority is to my work while at work. Thanks for the correction for the benefit of all the new people of the world.

    My newbie questions

    TO: West Coast JP If not using "test tubes" how do you see the tag being handled in conjuction with these other kinds of phys reps? What kinds of strange phys reps would you consider not being in the spirit of the rules (for example, could I use a 4' long shoe lace instead of a potion bottle...

    Healer/Fighter

    Take some time, in game, to talk to other healers. There is a lot to learn about the skills on your card which go beyond the rule book. For example, in what order is it best to do your First Aid (which out of game utterances, representing what your examination reveals during First Aid, are...

    My newbie questions

    You can buy large quantities of plastic "test tubes" with caps from chemical equipment supply houses -- make sure they can hold the required minimum quantity of liquid (check the rul book, but if memory serves me well, it's 2 ozs, min.). In quantities of a thousand the cost is usually less...

    Spirit Forge - what's your opinion?

    My character has had the opportunity to deal with other characters having race-changed -- and, MWE as he is (Ansconi, if you please) he is usually unphased, feeling as he does that people can do what they please so long as they don't hurt others or force themselve or their will on others. Now...
