@halfgiant it will depend on the timing. There are two conflicting points in that description.
@halfgiant said in Game Night 23rd:
When fully armed and armored, the bearer of this rod can instantly remove her armor and weapons, storing them magically within the rod.
and
@halfgiant said in Game Night 23rd:
Using the rod to store or retrieve armor and weapons is a standard action.
Instant implies swift or free action (I will rule this as swift), but then it states a standard action.
Because you were fully armed and armored when you blew Dregnoth’s wad and sucked into the Abyss, an occurrence you were in no way prepared for, I would easily give you a swift action to stow your shit. I think I could even give you the standard action. You are only facing
Zuggtmoy. Compared to the beings you could have been sucked in to face, this is on the lower end of the power scale.But would you have disarmed? This item lets you stow your gear and you can only summon it if it was stowed. So acquiring the rod may or may not mean you get your shit back.

@daermadm Now when i made the Rod of Arming i interpreted ‘battle regalia’ as being all of a characters slotted items.
I reading this over, I would interpret this as arms and armor, not every slot.
Quivers (loaded with arrows or 5 million wands) would count as arms and armor.
I think we will have to rule it out to specific slots, of which I will have to think about some.

I would have to listen to the audio again, Kargin is fully aware of how difficult it is to get out of the Abyss, and being forcefully summoned or pulled to a Demon Lord, with only him and Ceasar being there… the odds of fighting your way out of that or very extremely remote, once Kargin came to that realization he would of stowed his gear.

I will not argue this thought process. Maybe I can play back the recording while doing some router programming Tuesday

** Dregs smirks and offers Kargin one of his patented Shaving Razors of Sharpness **
“Might wanna use that… so when Damar realizes you’ve lost the Axe in the abyss, he won’t be able to tear your beard off - and it might grow back one day. Something tells me when a dwarven deity rips off your beard, it doesn’t regrow. Jus’ sayin…”
-
I’m not sure i follow you Dregs?, why would i be carrying the Axe of the Dwarvish Lords into the Abyss? That Axe is buried beneath the Elemental Forge locked in Kargins Ancient Shop, back in V’Ral not to see the light of day until after the Ancient Transformation Process has been completed.
Since the ‘offending door’ of the Dwarven Mountain suffered Dregnoth’s wrath for its heresy and ALL that sexy manacite went kaboom, Kargin had thought it best for it to stay locked and hidden away for the time being until after the transformation.
And it would give him ample time during his downtime days and between adventures that when he was in V’Ral he would have time to study the Axe so he would have every detail about the axe burned into his alcoholic laden brain for when the Ancient process begins.

“I thought you kept it in your mansion… Under the forge, you say ?? Exxxxcellent…”
** Dregs pats Kargi on the head like a doting old grandfather **
“Have fun storming the Abyssal Castle ! Don’t forget your Holocaust Cloak !”

hmm… now that i’m thinking ‘bout it, the solution seems rather simple tho’ i doubt Puss-In-Boots will enjoy it much - sometimes ya gotta make sacrifices for the prestige of bragging rights.
since encapsulating yourself in the OPPOSITE of divine magic would work too, you’ll just have to swipe something demonic of uber or artifact-level and let the Frog eat it and you (temporarily, of course)
ring-ring goes the batphone, then wham-bam-thankyou Godking and you’re out !! heh heh heh
we can even hire one of the local weavers to make a tapestry about it and hang it inside the Temple of Luuuuve for all to see and be inspired !So is this simply we have the obelisk -
(1) Beam Mr. Kitty and Kargin in as close to the target as possible
(2a) ‘Puss and Boots’ sneaks in and does his thing
(2b) Kargin being largely useless at this point holds the artifact, hides, and simply trys to stay alive.
(3) ‘Puss and Boots’ grabs what he can (the rod, mansion, a few rings, Slaad’s swords, etc…) returns back to god knows were ever Kargin trys to hide
(4) Kargin summons the remainder of his gear to him (assuming Mr. Kitty retrieved the Rod)
(5) Signal the Obelisk, using an artifact that we carry with us that the obelisk can lock on to to beam us both out with.I assume that is the gist?
Do we both need an artifact or will one suffice? Can the artifact be a minor one? -

“Have fun storming the Abyssal Castle ! Don’t forget your Holocaust Cloak !”Well, based upon our commune with Damar in V’Ral, the Axe had to be moved, and since i forgot Ceasar can’t be trusted not to blab the location to his God-King, the Sandwich lady down the street, or with Barb at Hot Yoga, I had to move the axe a third time. Now the Axe is in a new location, and its location is sufficiently encrypted from even Kargin, only to be unlocked when he is ready to undergo the Ancient Transformation.

@halfgiant Barb at Hot Yoga is a SAINT !! she has really helped my find my center and core strength , Plus she has hired me to help with vision quest, I mean its a little weird that Hippies lick me then go sit naked in the woods, but hey who am I to judge.

So that is where you got the money for the Angel bombs.
