Ever fought with a pair of daggers?

Not daggers specifically, but that's different than how the rules handle it anyway.
TWF is analagous to MWF.  Just feel how TWF actually works and you'll understand.  I wield twin daggers as my specialty, so whatever.

In any case, good job.
Ubernoob is a happy panda.

It's a pegleg, so we should be able to replace every leg.

Problem is it doesn't grant any attacks, so I'm not sure how that works out with the gloves.

So is this Cthulu's true form?
It always seems like the barrels around here have something in them.

It specifically grants 10 tentacles and gloves of man specifies that you just have to have tentacles for the ability to work. It says nothing about tentacles that can make attacks, so it works :P

Even if that were the case, the Gloves of Man overturn that with their "The wearer can use her full strength and dexterity" rule. :D

And this means we do have to update the picture... All those leg tentacles sprouting into 10 more... And the arm with a snake head on it... WHICH IS A HEAD! AND ALL OUR HEADS GET WHAT ANY HEAD GETS.

How did I miss that. That snake arm has 4 tentacles and a gore... SOOO updated.

This is how I imagine an encounter with this thing would go:

You see a mass of tenta...

You die. 


People usually think that I've lost my mind. I haven't lost it, I know exactly where it is: the gutter.

My body is a temple. That is why I make chocolate sacrifices in it every day.

PCs: A what?

DM: Nevermind, you're dead. Very dead.

Fixed.  ;)

Because RaW works is silly. But by the Multi-headed template, all heads we have gain the natural attacks of any heads we have, not just those granted by the template.

I guess those pirate grafts After and I found (I searched the dragondex for "grafts" and pointed him at the issue. He then dug it up and did rules-fu on it.) added a bit to this.

I'm not sure if I should help anymore...even pointing at something and saying "have you looked here yet?" brings you closer and closer to Chuck.

Am I allowed to help someone beat myself? What are the rules on that? I'm a sucker for records and love helping people with them(as I helped True Shinken on the feats record). Ah hell. I'll compromise. If I think of something passively I won't withhold the information. :)

Snake arm, tentacles, and gore in one sentence spells tentacle rape...  :hide

This thing is pretty much the definition of tentacle rape at this point.

A girl in my group used that a couple of times as a distraction (in game that is, haven't seen her do it out game yet  :P), and I don't know if this is intentional or not, but last session we stumbled upon some mind flayers in some sort of stasis  :o
