What's the Damage of a Thrown Roy Greenhilt?

[Tecoatl]

This is (obviously) just for the lulz... but...

Is it 1 object (paperweight improvised as boulder: Roy)?
or
2 objects: Roy (bludgeoning damage) + Sword (slashing damage, like a throwing Axe; just... you know... not an Axe)?

Does V require Proficiency - Exotic Weapon: Flying Meat Shield (like a Flying Talon; just... you know... not an Talon)?

Roy's sword is magical and slicing. Does that count like the magical razor-sharp talons of death Blackwing wanted?

SOOO MANY QUESTIONS!!!

Forceful Hand (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/spells/forcefulHand.htm) cannot throw an object, only push it. So you are making a melee attack, not a ranged attack. Since the hand has no class bonuses that give it multiple attacks per round, you can only hit with 1 object.

You are trying to hit a 35 AC (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/monsters/nightshade.htm#nightcrawler) Nightcrawler with a -4 attack penalty (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/equipment/weapons.htm#improvisedWeapons) for using an improvised weapon. You will only hit on a natural 20.

A paralyzed Roy would have a damage of 1d6 bludgeoning (https://rpg.stackexchange.com/questions/110041/how-much-damage-do-creatures-deal-when-wielded-as-a-weapon). Even with a double damage critical hit, 12 damage is not enough to overcome the Nightcrawler's 15 damage resistance.

So the answer is zero damage. Blackwing's strategy is much better, play for the 5% chance of a hit from the Greenhilt Sword.

wouldn't Roy count as an improvised weapon?

Presumably Durkon is supposed to cast something to restore Roy, but somehow I would not be surprised if Roy+sword are used as an improvised weapon in this way. There could easily be a few end of strip gags in it.

How to deal with Xykon:

Paralyze Roy.

Sling him around.

100% success!
