Well met

Yea, we could have take over this place if wasn't for our .... inside disagreements. (Vi kunne drept Alaundo og tatt plassen hans)
Alas, it will never work. !

If I'd wanted your opinion, I'd have told you what it was.

You are either being sarcastic, or truly know nothing of drow.

And Ezindir, Quote:


Evil or good? What does it matter to me, as long as you dont betray me or somthing.


Drow betray almost everyone.... You, however, are useful to me, and will not suffer a betrayal until you turn against me, or the opportunity is just too tempting...

Apart from being half Norwegian i'm also half Danish, so sarcasm runs in my blood

A wise man from Calimport once told me: "If a merchant puts sand in the flask of oil he's trying to sell you, then he isn't trying to sell you sand..."

Ahem.... did someone mention Cambions previously?! Enough banter say I, back to the topic of discussion if you please, Scribes.

But of course, Alaundo, and are you sure I cannot tempt you with a bottle of Cormyrian Fire Wine? It's sure to perk even you up, oh head scribe!


Cherrn, glad to see someone else within whom the blood of sarcasm runs thick....

Naroon, I don't have time to compose an email, so I'll just post some of the relevant information you require here instead.

Cambions, in 2e as follows -

Remembering that 2e Cambions come in two 'varieties' (Major or Baron/Marquis), there stats are altered accordingly.

Taken from PSMC I -
quote:
Major
Strength 17-18
Dexterity 13-18
Constitution 13-18
Intelligence 9-16
Wisdom 5-8
Charisma 1-6

Baron/Marquis
Strength 18-20
Dexterity 15-20
Constitution 15-18
Intelligence 13-18
Wisdom 13-18
Charisma 2-24
Also remember that the type of Cambion, whether Major, or Baron/Marquis is entirely dependent upon it's parentage. A 'Major' cambion will result from a lesser/greater tanar'ri-human female mating, and a Baron/Marquis is the result of a true Balor-human female pairing.

Now as for a Cambion's powers, in addition to those granted to all Tanar'ri...again taken from PSMC I -
quote:
detect magic, fear, levitate, and polymorph self
They also have significant thieving abilities, randomly determined (in most cases), and usually above 80% for each ability.



If you require any further information, I can summarise some extra details, and email out to you. Just ask...

AAaahhhhh, I just noticed....Naroon is a knight of Sehanine Moonbow. I cant ally with him!!!! What would Vhaeraun say??? While he hates all of the Seldarine, Vhaeraun harbors a particular enmity for Sehanine Moonbow, who escaped the Masked Lord's prison at great cost to herself and unmasked the culpability of both Vhaeraun and Araushnee.

Vhaeraun could kill your "deity" without a thought, and if you don't watch your tongue, you might lose it
I will take your ale though......

I`ll have something light, a salad with eggs and some honneywine if it`s possible, and some bread.

You my friend my order whatever you want, but it`s on me.

You know, i have a good friend; Lord Irongate (Paladin of Helm), who have a cambion half brother, his name is Combanigash. I have only met him once, but i can tell you; it was not a plesant meating, blood everywhere, screaming and... well we (me and Tane and a paladin named Trueblade) fought him off and we have not seen him since.

Actually when i think about it I have met another cambion as well, this one tried to summon demogorgon to Prime, his name was Illraader if I`m not mistakeing. creapy guy, he had this foul skin vest made of human skin. well, we managed to stop him in time, so the realm are still safe.

More ale?

and your story my new friend Shadowlord.

Indeed, I'm beginning to see the value of even **HIC!** a guardian of Sehanine Moonbow, **HIC!**. Vhaeraun praise you, so long as the ale keeps flowing.......and, ah, yes, my story......well, I'll speak more when the effect of your ale is gone.....

I have noticed that yet again, certain scribes seem to be going out of their way to bring a topic as far 'off-topic' as possible...Can we please try to remain within the subject posted as this scrolls 'Topic'...

I'll have a look in the PSMC I. Although IIRC, it only mentioned those type of stats for 'Major' cambions only. I do remember seeing some fansite for PS that had cambion 'Baron/Marquis' stats...I'll try and locate those as well.
