Oh dammit, you caught me. Sorta. Though having tentacles as my best and spontaneous attack spell was not entirely intentional. I just grabbed the domains that offered some kind of rebuking, preferably broad, and the picked out the ones with good attack spells to make spontaneous.

The robes are actually the glamered breastplate, and look like them Taoist ritual robes, I thought the combination was funny.

I have to check though, the Master feat grants a whole cohort to mess with right? Just wanted to double check on the cohort's equipment loadout.

No, not every loli is designed to be lusted after, but they are then designed as a figure for the otaku to feel protective of, to be a "white knight" for, or an "older brother" which is in itself a sort of fetish, nonsexual. These characters are overprevalent in anime, and that is the thing I hate secondmost about anime these days. The first is just how restricted most anime is to japanese culture. Even anime/manga set in a western setting is drenched in japanese ideals and cultural norms, because it is meant to appeal to a japanese fanbase. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with that, or that other cultures don't do the same thing with their works, but I just don't care for it. I also find that work coming out of other, western cultures is more internationally accessible, but that's just me.

And I really don't care what the age of consent in Japan is. A 30-odd year old man lusting after a 13 year old is wrong in any country.

To me, there is no dichotomy in a child wielding some kind of huge weapon or whatnot, because such media is saturated with those types of characters now (eastern and western, though moreso eastern- see Hit Girl from the comic/movie Kick-Ass). It's not surprising nor shocking, and just doesn't seem special to me. It's gotten tired for me.


@veekie
I don't think the cohort granted by the Mentor feat is really meant to follow you around. I'm not really sure what level it would be or anything.

I guess reading further, an Apprentice doesn't follow you around, but once they in turn graduate apprenticeship, they may follow the mentor as a cohort, so I guess there's that.

Veekie, where are you getting a +6 shield bonus to AC from? A Heavy shield is only +2 to AC.
The +4 enhancement is a one-time just to AC, not to every piece of one's armor. Otherwise we'd all be wearing +4 armor with +4 shield, +4 chahar-aina and +4 dastana.

also, how is Nick's cohort level 8, when it starts at level 1 at his PC's level 5? Any cohorts should be at ECL 5 from the Mentor feat.

I think he bought one the usual way with Leadership, I'll fix the shield in the next pasting(probably once I settle my spells and see if I can tie one up enhancing the shield). The Mentor cohort actually doesn't specify what happens if you begin play with it though, other than mentioning it's handled as per the Leadership Cohort.
Presumably tagging along on a higher level party means you either power up or die.

Quote
Feats: Adamantine Body, Apprentice (close wounds) (b), Awesome Smite, Combat Expertise (b), Destruction Devotion, Diehard (b), Exotic Weapon Proficiency (armblade) (b), Improved Inititative (b), Mentor (b), Power Attack (b), Protection Devotion, Weapon Focus (armblade) (b), Weapon Specialization (armblade) (b)

Didn't see Leadership on there, that's why I asked.


Sorry to be such an ass today, everyone. Been going through a bunch of stuff lately; I didn't mean to take it out on you guys.

No problem, besides, spotting all the holes all over the place saves me work.

Though I must say I object to grouping otaku under one banner when you have at least three right in this thread :P

As a side note, the Ley Lines stuff I linked in the phenomenons was fun to come up with wayyyy back then. The concept was right there waiting in the fiction and mechanics already.

You can go back many years and there was a guy named Donny Osmond who probably every male teenager wanted to kick the crap out of. Leif Garrett, David Cassidy, The Mmm Bop kids, Justin timberlake, on and on.

Wow, I saw some epic rage about loli over here. That's what happens when I'm too busy to log in!

Anyways, on cohorts, I believe I posted this earlier: stuff.

As for a crossover between the spinoffs and the original, I am 100% for it.

On Mentor: I had originally stated that your mentee is a noob. This means he or she is about 1st or 2nd level as of now. If you want a cohort, take Leadership instead.

Everything I learned about DnD I learned from Frank Trollman at The Gaming Den... but nowadays, my work space is the New DnD Wiki.

Check them both out!
