Why do I have the feeling that there will be many meteors headed my way next session? Yeah, I’m just joking around Remy. [/b]

What do you mean brainfart, I actually had it planned, I just thought that you guys would have survived a bit longer or at least took him down far enough to make him do a con check (too bad I rolled that percentile to see if his trigger shot activated when I hit:o ).

Don’t worry though, I won’t meteor you; that’s only if you’re going to kabitz bigtime or somewhere along the lines, then you go :thud: . Besides, why meteor you when I can just have the pure enjoyment of letting the other nasty creations I created for next session take you out? j/k(ah the joys of breaking in and training newbies to D&D; trying to get them to learn one way or another )

Maybe a monk or a wizard?:stuck_out_tongue:

I don’t think the half-elven fighter and the dwarven (who I would think would be especially pissed) fighter would look forward to fighting a rust monster (yet now all this talk about rust monsters have started giving me an idea for the next session )

Even though they might not carry metal weapons, those things can still eat all the gold you have on you.

Remy: I’M the Half-Elf, so I’m okay. The HUMAn Druid is fighting him in my stead…

They still have another choice. Running away :stuck_out_tongue:

Edit : I already encountered one of those. Smart ones can do the following : Toss him a piece of metal to eat and flee while its distracted eating

They could, if they wanted to. But I figure that by the time they figure out just what a Rust Monster does, it’ll be too late.

#16

Val, please, for the love of god, I want a log of that fight, for laughs :stuck_out_tongue:

#17

Alright, I shall do this. We meet again Friday.

#18

This going to be great ^.^

#19

Indeed. ^^

#20

I still have to make my Halfling monk somday.

#21

A halfling monk… an intriguing concept…

#22

D&D should implement a sort of specialization skill for monks, like how fighters have weapon specialization monks should get the same thing but more like skill specialization (fighting style-wise). In the case of a halfling monk, it would be perfect if the halfling was able to use Praying Mantis Kung Fu or something like that (the style had its advantages when fighting against an opponent much bigger).

#23

Monks specialize in unarmed strikes

#24

I know that, but I mean like weapons you can choose a certain style on how you fight. Sorta like how how Wizards have certain devoted schools that have specialized spells and whatsuch. Styles would have its advantages and disadvantages

#25

Sorry Val, I had to contradict, its me.

#26

S’allright. Anyway, you guys wanna hear how it went? This is what happened:

Turn 1: The fighter swung his sword at the rustmonster, and got that appropriately destroyed. Much cursing followed. Mage and Druid cast spells, both failed. Rustmonster attacked Fighter, and brought him down to 2 hit points.

Me: My character and the Princess arrive at her castle, and I am led to meet her father, the King.

Turn 2: The Fighter, being weaponless, wounded, and stupid, tries to set the rustmonster on fire. The accounts get a littled garbled here, since the DM was face-down on thwe table, shaking with laughter as he told us, but I think he got thrown into a wall, and died. Whoo. Mage and Druid tried casting spells again, and the Druid successfully entangles the Rust Monster. Unfortunately, he also entangled them, and they both will have to wait at least two turns before they can attack again.

Me: I meet the King, and I am rewarded for saving his delicate little flower by granting me a boon.

Turn 3: Figfhter’s dead, so he doesn’t do anything. The mage broke free somehow, but the Rust Monster did, too. Druid somehow got even more entangled, making escape harder. (A 2 was rolled at this point.)

Me: I ask for his daughter’s hand in marriage, causing the entire court to gasp, and the princess to do a maidenly blush. The King says that it won’t be that easy.

Turn 4: Mage casts a spell of fire, and wounds the Rust onster somewhat seriously. The monster, then, took out his aggression by attacking the Mage, he falls unconscious, and the Monster eats the gold he has on him. Druid breaks free, and readies staff.

Me: I’m charged to defeat his greatest knight in combat if I want to win her heart, and I accept.

Turn 5: Druid dead. That it.

And lo, I become the sole survivor of this campaign, and I cannot wait to find out how they will rejoin my story now.

#27

Hey, thats funny.
Rust Monster : 1
PCs : 0
:stuck_out_tongue:

#28

…

Insert dungeon with several Rust monsters here

God, that was hilarious XD

Wait, wait! A few entangle traps too XDXD

#29

Rolls around on the floor laughing

High Fives the DM for a well played out Rust Monster battle

I must remember to toss one of those into my campaign somewhere if the party doesn’t get moving from where they have been sitting. Either that or a pack of Umber Hulks who have slept in a patch of itching fungus.

edit: BTW Val, the campaign continues tuesday night.

#30

I’ve been having problems with mIRC, so I might have to just drop out, DN. Sowwy ;_;

And I just got word from the DM, apparently one of the other players will have to be my character’s squire/apprentice/student/whatever the hell you want to call it, as punishment. And believe me, he’ll HAVE to do it.

#31

Poor characters, won’t you have to fight the rust monster to recover the corpses?
