D&D

Lately BlAde and I have been playing a 20th level Dungeon, Using a couple of Homebrewed classes. The party consists of Droown, the Human Water Mage, and Vanessa, the Elf Air Mage, and any obscure NPC allies we find.

I'll give you a little background knowledge for you: Droown is a complete master of Water, and as such he fights best under or near water. I actually built the character as a Captain, with his own boat and everything. He devoted more than 300,000 gp into his ship. Has a crew of about 150 (including self and Cohort), due to the Leadership feat, all armed with Masterworks.

Test Session: I'm on land. Alone. Why? My 300,00+ gp Boat sunk. Yeah.

The dice hated me. I could never roll high on Spot checks (not a class skill, but Listen is) and Failed Epicly like 4 times (we play roll of a 1 is a humorous and humiliating failure-in this case failing to notice the ground, and thus falling) My guy looked like a moron b/c I was failing DC 12 Spot Checks with a +8 Wisdom Mod. As, such, at one point the Entire Battlefeild was moved to somewhere else, and I didn't even notice. On the other hand I would Epicly Succeed every Listen Check put in front of me, due to maxing out the skill. Total Listen bonus: +31 Total Spot Bonus: +8

Actually, I think we had an entire combat session underwater...I was fighting an animated Trident, in an enclosed tank. Enclosed. Can't use my 110ft Base Swim speed. Or the fact that I can make DC 56 Swim checks WITHOUT EVEN ROLLING THE DICE. Or my favorite Ability, Drown Touch.

However, I did have some really Epic moments. Killed a Balor, but rolled a one on the reflex save so took 200 Damage instead of 100. I only have 200 Health total. And I was wounded. Instant Death. Luckily, I had a nifty Ring that made it so I couldn't die...

Later I killed a 20th level Sorcerer with one Spell (Geyser, a homebrewed equivilant of lightning bolt), Because he cursed and broke my Family-heirloom +5 Wounding, Corrosive, Cold, Shocking Pearlsteel spear. I coup de graced him for an hour solid. He came back as a lich the next round and PWKed me. I was at full health so he cast Wall of Fire and Cone of Cold First. For some ridiculous reason I didn't notice the fact that I had been light on fire, and then frozen to less than half my hit points. But, whatever.
