Oh hey I recognize you. Someone I know linked me your other picture of a dragon who couldn't fit into a dungeon off of Tumblr.

Huh. Cool.

I don't maintain a tumblr other than to look into friends' own and for updates on games (even then it usually collects dust these days), but nice to know someone's sharing it to people.

Well as someone who's looked into Taninim in Pathfinder's 3rd party books, I've encountered the infamous bloackade of 'but how does the lime get into the coconut???' So that's probably how it found me.

I guess you were absent the day they taught Polymorph Self in dragon school. THat or you slept through the lesson. ;D

Hmm... Weren't they supposed to be a touch-based to hit for unwilling targets?

With team members automatically assumed to be willing and giving an automatic success?

In practice, yes. It's just assumes you touch allies just fine.

In theory, I'm amazed I haven't accidentally clawed my allies instead of just healing them.

How about the Longsword of Healing that was give to the strongest person in the party? (Formerly) Human Fighter with a strength score of 55 and a crapton of feats to go with longswords to make them frighteningly effective and all he has to do is strike you with the sword. If you survive the damage, you get that much healed times two. But thats the problem. -IF- you survive. Good as a backup healer, but... boy there were a lot of rewritten characters.

I regret nothing. I was helping.

Paw is bigger than you are!

I've been here. Right now I'm in a campaign of Hc Svnt Dracones and my character is under investigation for venting the atmosphere from a ship after exploring half of it and not finding the crew... She killed half the crew we were supposed to save. She also lost an arm trying to escape so now she has a prosthetic motorized arm with a pistol hidden in it! :D This cost her most of her earnings from that, and the following two contracts. I find games like this always end up making awesome stories when it's all said and done.

Oh man. I would love to try or watch a game of Hc Svnt Dracones sometime, I'm just not in a crowd that would run that. (I'm the only one that owns a book of it).

Took me ages to gather a group to play it. I'd love to put together an online group that could meet certain days to play it. It works SUPER well on IRC. Tried it before with a single person as a test run.

Reminds me of the "arrows of cure" that archers can use.

I was always a little leery about getting hit with one of those-- the archers are always smiling a little TOO happy to use them...

At least the cure spell is still touch if you step on them, right?

....right?

I'm not sure what character class your dragon is, but if I was DM I would be willing to bend the rules a little to let you have a familiar for this purpose, or at least create what is essentially a semi-autonomous levitating wand of cure spells under your control. Should be in line with a spellcasting dragon character.

Or there's the dwarf's answer, which is a firm, hard, slap on the ass. :3

Ah, healing magic at touch range. Always fun when you have characters of wildly differing sizes.

Meanwhile, every MMO makes it a ranged spell of the "instantly targets" variety.

You don't see "Healdokens" that often, though. Probably because healers would rage if they lost a party member due to the travel time of their spell.

...Fun fact: In RetroMUD, characters range from "As tall as buildings" to "as tiny as insects". There's a class, Biomancer, that's effectively an arcane healer, but they can also perform surgery.

The game doesn't stop a giant-sized dragon from performing surgery on a pixie-sized atomy.

Hell, Dragon is even one of the recommended races for Biomancers.
