| − | I hope you don't mind, byt I added a discussion section so I could offer up a suggestion for discussion: I notice you slapped an adamant sorcery cord on this guy. Here's something to consider (For the ultimate in combat twinkness) Give an adamant sorcery cord to all five of you solars in the circle, so they can have the Starry Eye'd spell turret fill them up a few days before the fight. Then you can get something heinous along the lines of 15 total annhilations or gaia's rebukes in during the first turn, as reflexive actions from the whole circle. That'll rain on FaFL's parade (He'd probably still survive, but they'd use up his charm action in round one). That also may be too cheesey, even for this exercise. -[[Ambisinister]] | + | I hope you don't mind, byt I added a discussion section so I could offer up a suggestion for discussion: I notice you slapped an adamant sorcery cord on this guy.

:: I wish I had some of my books on hand so I could check it out myself. The only complication I seem to recall is that a sorcerer cannot actually catch his own spells in his personal cord. I want to say that was because he was too busy actually casting the spell to turn around and immediately catch it in his cord. Naturally, it took my players all of five seconds to get around that little setback by having the twilight give his cord to someone else. They thought they were so clever. I of course immediately turned it around on them by having the next Wyld Hunt posse they encountered come equipped with spell ladden Emerald Cords. This process is what spawned my above suggestion.- [[Ambisinister]] | :: I wish I had some of my books on hand so I could check it out myself.

Discussion
I hope you don't mind, byt I added a discussion section so I could offer up a suggestion for discussion: I notice you slapped an adamant sorcery cord on this guy. Here's something to consider (For the ultimate in combat twinkness) Give an adamant sorcery cord to all five of you solars in the circle, so they can have the Starry Eye'd spell turret fill them up a few days before the fight. Then you can get something heinous along the lines of 15 total annhilations or gaia's rebukes in during the first turn, as reflexive actions from the whole circle. That'll rain on FaFL's parade (He'd probably still survive, but they'd use up his charm action in round one). That also may be too cheesey, even for this exercise. -Ambisinister
- Urm. I'm going to have to check, but I thought that it took a die action to undo the cord on a spell-storing rope. Also, use up his Charm for turn 1? That's what comboes are for. ;) The other thing is, I think 5-pt artifacts would cripple a lot of the other characters under the artifact rules I made for them. Still, if they're reflexive, I may give them to one or two more people. - FrivYeti, who has a sudden horrible image of fifteen Total Annihilations parried in fifteen directions, exploded towards both the Lion and the Solars.
- I wish I had some of my books on hand so I could check it out myself. The only complication I seem to recall is that a sorcerer cannot actually catch his own spells in his personal cord. I want to say that was because he was too busy actually casting the spell to turn around and immediately catch it in his cord. Naturally, it took my players all of five seconds to get around that little setback by having the twilight give his cord to someone else. They thought they were so clever. I of course immediately turned it around on them by having the next Wyld Hunt posse they encountered come equipped with spell ladden Emerald Cords. This process is what spawned my above suggestion.- Ambisinister
- Hmm... I think, barring evidence to the contrary, I'm going with one spell per turn out of the cord. It's powerful enough as it is.
