Still very much alive (only taken 1 CON damage so far making it 15 HP lost), and everyone's still very much alive. I'm almost wondering if the DM's pulling punches, but then again we did revise the instant death attacks to do the 20d6 and 40d6 equivalents that Pathfinder uses. That could have a lot to do with it, but that's really only for the NPCs since none of us have had to worry about it. That, and I'm immune to gaze attacks and the mass of multiple images being cast thanks to my blindfold giving blind sight 30 ft.
As faulty as our characters may seem, I'd say that we're doing extremely well. Mostly because we're not human. I haven't even had to use any of my pearls of power, or the rest of my spells yet. Granted all the NPCs have teleported away and are currently fast healing so that they'll be ready to pound on us during round 2, but we're okay with that.
And we're even down three PCs so we're doing that much better again. What's funny is I totally forgot about one particular player, and his character, because he was only able to join us for the first few sessions before he got transferred. He's a human rogue. He was the only human in the entire party to begin with. However, I'm sure if he was still around his bloodline traits would have kicked in by this point.
I will say this though. I've come to learn first hand why it's absolutely crucial for a main spell caster to stay as one, and not vary too much. Even with Practiced Spellcaster, the kobold is still only 11th level for all spells that aren't force. That's ridiculous. At least he's got SR though.
