  • Amorphous: The ooze can move through a space as narrow as 1 inch wide without squeezing.
  • False Appearance: While the ooze is in water, it looks like it is an oil slick.
  • Oil Coating: Creatures struck by the ooze are covered in oil if they fail a saving throw.  This oil can be removed at the end of their turn without an action with a successful Dexterity saving throw (DC 14).  If the target spends an action to remove the oil, the saving throw is performed with advantage.
  • Fire Form: If the ooze is dealt fire damage, the ooze takes no damage, but starts on fire.  It’s attack now deal fire damage, and any creature struck by the ooze that fail their Dexterity saving throw (DC 14) now are lit aflame and take 10 (2d10) fire damage at the start of their turns.  Creatures covered in oil perform this save with disadvantage.  They can remove the fire damage as normal to remove the oil coating.

Actions

  • Pseudopod: Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit:  11 (2d6 + 5) bludgeoning damage, and if the target must make a dexterity saving throw (DC 14).  On a failure the target is coated in oil.
  • Spray (Recharge 4-6): All creatures in 30 feet are sprayed with oil. Each creature in that area must make a DC 14 Dexterity saving throw or it is covered in oil.
  • Self Immolate:  The ooze can start a fire on itself activating fire form above.   All creatures in 30 feet are attacked with a ball of fire dealing 24 (8d6) fire damage. Each creature in that area may attempt a DC 14 Dexterity saving throw to reduce the damage by half.  Creatures covered in oil make this save with disadvantage.  Anything covered in oil that takes fire damage is lit on fire and takes damage as per the fire form trait.  The ooze can end being on fire with a bonus action on its turn.  The ooze cannot use Self Immolate if it is currently on fire or on a turn it ended being on fire.

Description

This ball of ooze appears to look like a shimmering rainbow.  The rainbow is a trick of the light as the ooze is made of flammable material the shimmers.  Those who use fire on this creature soon regret their final action.

Daily Punch 9-5-16 Itchy Trigger Finger interrupt action for Shadowrun 5e

~ fineyoungmisanthrope ~ Leave a comment

I haven’t made a Shadowrun thing in a bit, so here is one!

 

Itchy Trigger Fingers

(GRENADE ATTACK ONLY)

Interrupt Action (-5 Initiative Score)

Sometimes time is not on your side.  Some times you want that hot potato to bake a little more quickly.  When you throw a grenade with a wireless link, but you are not linked to it, you can reduce your initiative score by five to activate the grenade.  This will not reduce scatter.  The grenade may be dodged as normal.

Daily Punch 8-29-16 Caustic Glob cantrip for DnD 5e

~ fineyoungmisanthrope ~ Leave a comment

Another cantrip I was thinking about lately.  I like acid that eats armor.

 

Caustic Glob

Conjuration cantrip

Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 50 feet
Components: V, S
Duration: Instantaneous

You create a glob of acid in your hand and throw it at a target in range.  Make a ranged spell attack at a target.  On a hit, the target takes 1d4 acid damage, and if the target’s armor is not magical, the target’s armor takes a -1 penalty to AC.  This penalty is not cumulative with itself or other magic spells.  Additional spells that reduce the AC of a target apply the highest penalty to the target’s AC instead of the total penalty.

This spell’s damage increases by 1d4 when you reach 5th level (2d4), 11th level (3d4), and 17th level (4d4).

Daily Punch 8-17-16 WI-FI Sensitivity negative quality for Shadowrun 5e

~ fineyoungmisanthrope ~ Leave a comment

It’s been a bit for Shadowrun.  Haven’t done this for a bit, so  let’s add somethings I thought up this weekend.

 

WI-FI Sensitivity_______________
Technomancer Only

Bonus:5,10, or 15 karma
In the 90’s, some kids said they could feel the WI-FI and it gave them hives.  That was bulldrek, but in the 60′, the 2060’s, some kids said they could feel when the matrix went out, and it hurts like coming off bad nova.  You get that feeling when you can’t get online.  For 5 karma, you take a penalty to all actions equal to the noise rating of a zone divided by 4 (minimum 1).  For 10 karma, you take a penalty to all actions equal to the noise rating of a zone divided by 3 (minimum 1).  And for 15 karma, you take a penalty to all actions equal to the noise rating divided by 2 (minimum 2).  If no noise is present, you take no penalty.  But, if a signal jammer or other device messes with the matrix, you take the penalty.

Daily Punch 8-16-16 Giant Bloodline Sorcerous Origin for DnD 5e

~ fineyoungmisanthrope ~ Leave a comment

Let’s get back to the giant archetypes with the Giant Bloodline for the DnD 5e Sorcerer.

Giant Bloodline

Giants are brutish creatures that don’t always kill those they capture.  Or some seek them out to live among them in the wilderness.  In either case, some children emerge from unions that may occur in the wilderness.  You are one of these children.  Your magic power emerged early as your giant heritage began to take hold.

Giant Ancestor

Giant blood flows through your veins making you tougher than most. At 1st level, increase your Constitution or Strength by 3, to a maximum of 20.

Violent Tendencies

Starting at 6th level you become increasingly aggressive.  When you cast a cantrip you may also make a strength-based melee or thrown weapon ranged attack as part of the same action.

Muscle Mass Growth

At 14th level, your body continues to inherit more of your giant ancestral traits.  You gain a +3 to Strength or Constitution, to a maximum of 20.

Giant Apotheosis

Beginning at 18th level, you grow into the giant you were always meant to be.  Increase your size to one category larger and change all your hit dice to d12s and recalculate your hit points.
