I has a birthday!
May. 8th, 2008 12:56 pm...What? You mean I have to get *more* grownup? No!! Why?! Wasn't turning eighteen enough, now I have to be nineteen? How is that fair?
Started my birthday off with finishing up the Ravenloft campaign, which was more fun than pretty much any session up to that point. Chris somehow got a lot more fun to play after she was mindraped and went chaotic evil, possibly because the trauma gave her more interesting and varied reactions. Also for some reason it's easier to roleplay the Diplomacy than it was before. And they say crazy and evil has no benefits. Of course, she's now stuck halfway to being the vampiric sex slave--sorry, "love" slave--of the Big Bad, but you can't have everything. (She has plans for what she's going to do to him, given a decade or so of adding more bard and then a passle of sorceror levels.)
Also, Zach's character? Completely broken. Just...it does not get more broken than, "Oh, hi, big bad of the entire Ravenloft setting. You say you rolled a 3 on your Fortitude save? Well, I confirmed a critical, so have in the neighborhood of 300 points of damage from my disintigration of awesome. Bye." I mean, yes, it was a combination of two fairly improbable things--he rolled a crit on the attack and confirmed it, and the boss failed the save, but these were both possible things, and if it's at all possible to turn the final boss fight into a one-hit-kill, then the character is broken. Very broken.
