"ninja'd"? (looks at dictionary) I don't think that's a real word, but that sounds like a good character description. It sounds like your plan is a very good example of what your character would probably do in a situation like this, so I say go for it.

All right, I will do it.

OOC: I'm sorry, "ninja'd" is an internet term. It means that you posted, but someone else posted before you, making your post look kinda silly. Or something like that. xP

So it's kinda like trolling Hypermnestra?(the internet term, not literal meaning of trolling) Ok.

(sound of dice rolling)SirNoobalot, you sense no animals nearby, probably because of the burning house, which "would" scare them away. You can still take cover behind a tree and all that, no problem.

Running with paladin, armor off, as metal conducts heat, and I'm wearing a steel breastplate. I have fast movement, so I will probably be able to help a lot by busting through a bunch of doors in little time.

If you're wondering, Desert, I'm CG, so I will do watever I need to to help people. Anyway, I was working with the parents, so I know what they look like. They are my main priority at the moment.

...shadowjak135 Barbarians don't normally wear heavy armor, it conflicts with some of their abilites, you couldn't take a alternate armor like from say the "Races of the Wild"? Anyway, your fast movement would "definitely" help with getting there on time, but without armor, you "could" be in trouble (then again, as I have said before, you "are" a Barbarian) I say go for it, if you want.

A breastplate is under the Medium armor section in the book (leafs through book) and... Yes it is!!! Anyway, I lose my fast movement only for now with it, so when I need it, I strip it off. So, I need my movement at this moment.

OOC: No, not like trolling. It's where someone posts before you, and it's accidental. Like so....
Poster Dude #1: Haha, the Broncos got their butts kicked in that game! *posted at 6:00*
Poster Dude #2: I bet the Broncos are totally gonna win! *posted at 6:01*

So, yeah. I will run full pelt(armor on, because heavy armor takes forever to remove) towards the nearest kobold, push them down with all my strength, and make my way into the burning building.
I'll base my next answer on what you say happens to me after that....

Me too. Takes a few turns to rip off armor, but fast movement makes up for it.

Well, (looks at book) then maybe you should have a "back-up" suit, like hide or (looks at "Races of the Wild&quot... oh, never mind (expensive as all get out!). Anyway, the fact you know the parents does give you a very good reason why your character would do something that "reckless"(and again, "Barbarian",it's very good "role-playing" for them)

Yeah. I think that I'm going to keep my heavy armor on, just in case.
Also because I'm going to be the one pushing the kobold down. I need some real weight behind that push if it's going to do anything, and my heavy armor should help out a lot, speed difference or no.
