GM: that would take time. if you want to do this now, you'd need to drop the knives. you have spares =)
Sithis: in fact, I have nothing in my hands
GM: no, you had 2 silver knives, dropped 1, and drew a goblin knife.
Sithis: but, where are my knives? I don't know
GM: Group whisper idea: use the MapTools chat for planning.

Sithis: don't works??
whispering to Lenia, Could you send Thog's sheet to Tony-C?

| 4) YOUR TURN NOW:: [25] Beltarne (on deck: [24] Arganyev) |
whispering to Beltarne, Emily?
Sithis: then, no one left here?
** Arganyev shouts 'Lobstermen, we are going for ripping entirely your magical glands!' **
** Beltarne splashes down off the corpse and heads after the fleeing lobstermen. **
Arganyev: (honest)
| 5) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Arganyev (on deck: [24] Lenia) |
Arganyev: their glands are useful!
Arganyev: I pursue the fleeing ones
Arganyev: Thanks Mark
GM: half move through water.
| 6) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Lenia (on deck: [24] knights5,6) |
Sithis: good, but I don't do those things like cut for a glands, puag!!
** Lenia attempts to smash the thing at her feet. All-out, again, chinks in torso armor. **
Arganyev: you callous, and worried for cutting some glands?
GM: ah.
GM: roll it.
Lenia: Staff: [3d6.skill(14,-4)] => [6,6,6] = 18 vs (10) or less Critical Failure! [B556]
Arganyev: oooo
Arganyev: how is that
Lenia: [3d6.crit_miss()] => [2,2,3] = 7 You lose your balance & can do nothing else (not even free actions) until next turn; all defenses -2 until next turn. [B556]
GM: oops.
| 7) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] knights5,6 (on deck: [23] lobstermen) |
Lenia: I should probably stick to wizarding.
Singeon: Let him go Sithis
Lobsterman: the lobster knight retreats as best he can.
| 8) YOUR TURN NOW:: [23] lobstermen (on deck: [30] Thog) |
Arganyev: no no, don't surrender to D&D limitations Lenia!
Narrator: The water churns as 4 more lobstermen, armored with crude blades and small shields, surface.
** Singeon mutters, "Ah, hell..." **
Thog: Graah.
Beltarne: OK, time for casting spells.
| 1) YOUR TURN NOW:: [30] Thog (on deck: [28] Sithis) |
whispering to Thog, action?
** Arganyev shouts 'Well, so more of you, critters, are coming to receive a violent and steeled atonement?' **
Thog: I only see two new lobstermen? But nevermind.
** Singeon adds, "And we'll kill you too." **
Arganyev: the steeled atonement is exactly that, Singeon)
** Thog steps forward to dry land (finally) while readying his bow and arrow. **
Beltarne: (( they could just be too far away. ))
Sithis: there are one yellow, is he different the others demons?
Arganyev: they arent demons)
Thog: Fast-Draw (Arrow) (15) [3d6.skill(15,-1)] => [3,2,3] = 8 vs (14) or less Success! by 6
Thog: Bow (17) [3d6.skill(17,-1)] => [5,4,1] = 10 vs (16) or less Success! by 6 Conditional: +1 from 'Weapon Bond (Oversized Longbow)'
Thog: Longbow ready. And done.
| 2) YOUR TURN NOW:: [28] Sithis (on deck: [28] Singeon) |
Sithis: I only see two more, where are the others 2?
GM: yes, only Thog and Sithis can see the 2 more to the right - they're out of everyone else's vision range.
Arganyev: ok
Sithis: anyway, I search my weapons in floor
GM: you kneel and grab a knife.
| 3) YOUR TURN NOW:: [28] Singeon (on deck: [25] Beltarne) |
Sithis: and the another too?
Singeon: Heroic charge thing again
GM: okay.
Singeon: Dual swings -6/-3 decopetiung
GM: you're at -3 for light penalties, by the way.
Singeon: Attack: Saber L Swing (22): [3d6.skill(22,-9)] => [4,1,2] = 7 vs (13) or less Success! by 6
Singeon: Attack: Saber R Swing (22): [3d6.skill(22,-9)] => [2,3,5] = 10 vs (13) or less Success! by 3
Beltarne: (( Nightvision is great stuff. ))
Singeon: Who needs night vision when you make your own rosy glow?
Sithis: yes, yes)
Lobsterman: dodge and sidestep [3d6.skill(5,-3)] => [5,2,5] = 12 vs (2) or less Critical Failure! by 10 [B556][3d6.skill(5,-3)] => [6,2,1] = 9 vs (2) or less Failure! by 7
Beltarne: very very nice.
Lobsterman: [3d6.crit_miss()] => [5,1,6] = 12 Your weapon turns in your hand; must Ready it before it can be used again. [B556]
** Singeon yells, "Huzzah!" **
Singeon: Damage: Saber (Swing): [2d6+2] => [1,3,2] = (6) cut
Singeon: Damage: Saber (Swing): [2d6+2] => [5,6,2] = (13) cut
Arganyev: again? That is turning into a technique Singeon
GM: He loses control of his shield as he tries to flee. then he's knocked around a bit. and, uhm, killed.
Singeon: 0 and 7
** Singeon yells, "Thats a warning to our new friends!" **
GM: The 4 new lobstermen take heed of the situation and dive back into the water.
GM: combat is over (I assume the 6 of you can kill 1 stunned, crawling, wounded elder spawn).
Singeon: I don't know about that!
GM: I'll take it on faith.
** Arganyev 'Become extinct, creatures of the depths!' **
Sithis: I search my dear another weapon
Arganyev: your lost knife
GM: Sithis finds her knife.
** Singeon moves to the other island and stands guard. **
Sithis: ah! good!
Arganyev: Singeon, please, don't enter in any hole
Lenia: "Beltarne, these creatures have glands that might be valuable. Have you got a surgical kit?"
Sithis: someone wants to cut the corpses? me no
GM: The water looks deep, Singeon.
** Singeon smiles at the jokes he could make. **
** Thog lowers down his longbow and grunts in satisfaction. **
Arganyev: I think we can go in *deeper* danger if we follow their escape route
Singeon: I'm just guarding.
GM: Yes, drowning is dangerous. =)
Sithis: Thog is a ogre, he can to do it
Lenia: Like climbing. >.>
** Arganyev mentions again the glands issue **
Thog: Thog no like water. Water cold.
Singeon: What about warm water?
Arganyev: and drowning is deeper, too ;D
** Beltarne checks his bag, feeling a little absent minded. **
Sithis: the ogres feel this? the water cold? I didn't know, sorry Thog
Arganyev: anyone has notions of Surgery?
whispering to Sithis, Make a search roll, skill is 14
Sithis: me no
Singeon: I did some surgery on that lobster back there
Arganyev: and by default?
Sithis: perhaps Beltarne?
Beltarne: "Nae, I aen't got a kit on mae, but I think a lil' work wit' one oa Sithis' fine knives be thae thing."
Arganyev: we need a more delicate surgery, mate
Singeon: Whee do we go from here?
** Thog looks around for anything that might be usable. **
Beltarne: "Aie be kennin tha cuttin', but on thae men, not on thae beasties."
Singeon: Do you speak common?
Singeon: jk
Narrator: Sithis soaks herself, crawling through the water looking for her silver knife.
Beltarne: (( If I start going "Bork Bork Bork" I'm broken. ))
Arganyev: Surgery is First Aid-12 by default...
** Lenia sits on a dry-ish spot to rest. **
Beltarne: (( Beltarne was trying to say that he's a surgeon, although he knows better men than monsters. ))
Lenia: Beltarne has the skill, Arganyev, but we don't have the tools unless Sithis can spare a knife.
whispering to Beltarne, Surgery rolls at -3 to extract the mana organs. And -4 to get off the carapaces.
** Singeon Kneels to rest. **
Arganyev: aha, ok
Arganyev: this time we are barely wounded, right?
Singeon: Yes
Beltarne: How bad are Thog's injuries?
Arganyev: I start to pile the corpses for easing Beltarne's work, anyone wants to help?
Thog: Thog gets cut a bit. Not hurt though.
** Beltarne walks over to beside Sithis, trying to help her find her precious knife. **
GM: Thog took an axe blow that would have ended Lenia's career. To him, it stings.
Arganyev: I know, but other times the result was worse than today
Singeon: You guys were lucky, that's all.
Thog: (( I don't know how much HP I actually lost though.)
whispering to Beltarne, Make an observation check.
whispering to Thog, oops! it was a 9 point hit, and you already had 2 hits.
Sithis: guys! I find my knife and a lot of coins, look!
Lenia: Coins? We like coins. Coins don't require negotiation for value.
Thog: Coins good.
GM: Sithis has collected 600 coins, mostly copper, but there's some silver, too.
Thog: ((In the interest of not killing someone's character, somebody probably should do first-aid on Thog. Please.))
GM: Emily, you have a whisper. Please respond.
whispering to Thog, You're hardly wounded.
whispering to Thog, neither was a major wound, together they aren't a major wound.
Beltarne: Per (14) [3d6.skill(14,-5)] => [5,3,3] = 11 vs (9) or less Failure! by 2
whispering to Beltarne, You see Sithis picking up coins while she searches for her knife, but she tells everyone about it before you can say anything.
** Thog wades into the water to look for more coins. He shrugs, "Coins good. Get stuff for coins." **
** Beltarne congratulates Sithis. "Good find!" **
GM: Thog, roll Search at +1.
Beltarne: Arganyev and Sithis have disconnected from Maptools.
GM: Or Per-4 if you don't have the skill.
GM: Thanks!
GM: wait 5 minutes for them. Beltarne, some improvised surgery rolls in the meantime?
Beltarne: I think that's just the thing!
Thog: Per (11) [3d6.skill(11,-4)] => [3,2,2] = 7 vs (7) or less Success! by 0
** Beltarne starts by trying to strip the carapaces off the corpses. **
Beltarne: Surgery/TL3 (Human) (12) [3d6.skill(12,-4)] => [1,4,2] = 7 vs (8) or less Success! by 1
Thog: ((It's the night of barely made rolls.))
Beltarne: (( better than failing! :D ))
GM: Thog, you find no more coins. You find various smooth rocks, smooth rocks with holes in them, and other trinkets of Ogre value, but nothing that civilized lands care for.
Beltarne: (( welcome back ))
** Thog is pleased at his finds. "Thog finds these. Thog keeps these." **
GM: Beltarne skins off 2 carapaces. Someone roll armory, please.
Arganyev: they are interesting pieces, Thog
GM: Going to try any more, Beltarne?
Thog: ((Anyway, no first aid for Thog, I take it. Ah well, he can take it.))
Sithis: who has armory?
** Lenia guides Beltarne to the right places to cut those glands out. **
Arganyev: I have First Aid for Thog
Arganyev: at 12, I believe)
GM: make skill rolls, people!
Arganyev: First Aid (Thog):
Arganyev: [3d6] => [5,3,6] = (14)
Sithis: [3d6] => [1,6,4] = (11)
Arganyev: failure
GM: [1d6-3] => [4,-3] = (1)
GM: Thog heals 2 hits.
** Beltarne continues hacking, digging in for the precious glands that everyone was so excited about. **
Beltarne: Surgery/TL3 (Human) (12) [3d6.skill(12,-3)] => [4,2,2] = 8 vs (9) or less Success! by 1
Lenia: Armory (Default): [3d6.skill(16,-5)] => [1,3,3] = 7 vs (11) or less Success! by 4
Sithis: Beltarne, do you do such things? a cleric? puag!
GM: You also get out 2 glands, worth $50 each and weighing 1/4 lbs. The carapaces weigh 20 lbs and are worth $800
Thog: Where do us go now?
Arganyev: Sithis, aren't you callous?
Lenia: "I suggest we get out of here while the getting is good. We've got quite the haul."
Singeon: I don't see another passage.
Singeon: Have we completed what we came for?
Lenia: Yup.
Arganyev: Yes
** Beltarne waves an ichor-coated knife at Sithis. "Thae beasties be given thae value by the Gads thaeself. I not bae one ter shun it." **
Thog: Passage is down. Must be some for lobster people.
Singeon: Lets us go.
Sithis: arrghh!! clear it before!
Lenia: My father always told me, "Quit while you're ahead, it's better than pressing on and getting killed."
GM: You all get the sense that you've explored as much of the caverns as you can without learning how to breath water.
** Beltarne washes his hands and the knife off and returns the knife to Sithis. **
Arganyev: I don't want deeper, drowning deeper so I agree with that
Lenia: He also said something about life being like a box of chocolates, but never really clarified that.
** Beltarne marches over to Thog and gives him some serious medical attention, now that the important business of money is taken care of. **
whispering to Beltarne, there's 4 more corpses if you want to try for more.
Arganyev: no:
Arganyev: I don't want deeper, drowning danger so I agree with that
GM: beltarne, you're at -5 to heal Thog (second casting, magic resistance)
** Singeon yells, "My blades scream for a real bed." **
Lenia: "I keep telling you you should have that checked."
** Beltarne inspects Thog, trying to determine how much healing to apply. **
GM: he's at 7 hits.
GM: sorry, 9.
Thog: Thog says yes. Water cold, and no more coins or nice rocks. No need.
Beltarne: So, lots of it.
Thog: (Thog has lost 9 hp)
Thog: ((Mark was counting the wounds, not the remaining hp)
GM: he gets double healing, though, since his HP is 20+
GM: oh yea, what Thog said.
GM: he's at 14 hp remaining, 9 damage taken.
** Beltarne cracks his knuckles. "Gorm, wypalić z tego ogre rany ciała." (Major Healing to cure 8 HP) **
Sithis: I have damage? don't remember..
Arganyev: I don't remember what is exactly my HP/FP status
Beltarne: (( costs double because he's SM+1 though. ))
Sithis: I think the session before, someone wound me
Beltarne: Major Healing (Holy) (15) [3d6.skill(15,-5)] => [6,4,5] = 15 vs (10) or less Failure! by 5 Includes: +4 from 'Power Investiture (Holy)'
GM: there's plenty of time to rest, though you'll get back to camp really late.
GM: try minor healing?
Arganyev: perhaps we need to rest before traveling to the camp again, but I don't know
Thog: Rest is good, but rest here is bad idea.
Lenia: Resting here would be bad, yes.
** Beltarne sits down heavily. **
** Beltarne is exhausted. **
Lenia: Failure costs only 1 FP.
Lenia: :P
GM: What's wrong resting in the grotto immediately connected to an unblockable package connected to an unknown and unknowable amount of lobster Elder Spawn?
Beltarne: Orly?
Arganyev: Thog, we already rest in places as these, in the Caverns of Madness ;))
Sithis: I have all my robes soaked
Sithis: I don't want rest here
Thog: That's why Cavern is called Madness.
** Beltarne tries Minor Healing for 4 HP. **
Beltarne: Minor Healing (Holy) (16) [3d6.skill(16,-5)] => [4,3,3] = 10 vs (11) or less Success! by 1 Includes: +4 from 'Power Investiture (Holy)'
GM: Thog heals 6 more damage.
Lenia: Okay, people, let's pack up and leave. We can rest at the camp and then head for town. Besides, our hirelings might be worrying about us.
Thog: ((Anything else needs to be taken care here?))
Arganyev: that is, Madness is our resting place
GM: DO you guys head out, or do you wait for the lobstermen to murder you in your sleep?
** Thog thanks Beltarne. **
Arganyev: we could rest in the earlier "room", if you want
GM: I vote 2, but...
Singeon: I thought it was the caverns of Badass!
Beltarne: Is there anything we can block the tunnel with?
Beltarne: Boulders?
Beltarne: We have an ogre.
Lenia: Caverns of 'let's get out of here, please'.
Arganyev: well, we go out of there, now
Arganyev: (if all you agree with that)
GM: You throw some rocks in the tunnel, hoping to block it, but... unless you go swimming to inspect, you can't be sure.
Singeon: Let's head to camp
** Thog stands up and starts heading back. **
Beltarne: Greed [3d6.skill(12,0)] => [4,3,4] = 11 vs (12) or less Success! by 1
Arganyev: lol
** Beltarne manages to control the urge to hack more valuable bits off of bodies. and staggers off up the tunnel. **
Sithis: hmmm what happened? I don't understand, Im lost
Arganyev: remember, Gold and Glory! (encouragement if it is needed)
Sithis: ah! OK
GM: everyone rests in the main gallery and recovers fatigue, then crosses the chasm and walks/crawls through the mines.
Arganyev: I explained to Sithis)
GM: So: recover all fatigue, then spend 1+encumbrance. Thog is medium encumbered after you guys turn him into a mule.
GM: Everyone got that?
Sithis: OK
Beltarne: Yay
Arganyev: sure
** Thog protests, but relents after being told that it's necessary. **
Singeon: OK
Sithis: why I have +1 of encumbrance?
Sithis: Thog isn't the porter?
Arganyev: Sithis, you also carry a part of the haul
Sithis: no, I have bit force
Arganyev: what=
Thog: ((Bit force?))
GM: You don't, but you spend that much fatigue crawling through the tunnels.
Arganyev: little strength, do you mean?
Arganyev: ah OK
Sithis: ah! OK, I agree
Sithis: I agree with GM
GM: Fatigue spent: Arg 4, Belt 4, Thog 3, Lenia 2, Singeon 1, Sithis 2
Arganyev: that is good and unexpected!
Sithis: the rest is: I have small strength
Arganyev: little)
Lenia: I don't suppose we're lucky enough to have an uneventful trip back to town, free of bandits and other deadly creatures? >.>
Thog: ((We might. Quick, someone use their Serendipity!))
Sithis: I have my amulet of fatigue :)
Singeon: Is our hirelings still there?
GM: busy!
Arganyev: ... full of suspense
Narrator: Exhausted, battered, but loaded with treasure, the delvers hobbled through the old dwarven mines and stepped out into the starry sky.
** Singeon praises the heavens! **
whispering to Thog, You sense danger as you approach the entrance.
Singeon: If you look closely at those stars over there, they are in the shape of me.
** Beltarne sighs and stretches. **
** Arganyev says 'Behold companions, Tyrandor greets us from the Heavens, in her starry home!' **
Lenia: "You should probably get your eyes checked along with your swords."
GM: Remember, people who are not Beltarne have to crouch in the mines; Thog has crawl.
** Singeon smells his pits and says, "i think I need a bath." **
Arganyev: er
Singeon: Ain;'t nothing gonna break my stride, Lenia
Beltarne: o.o
** Thog stretches. He sniffs the air. "Good air." **
** Beltarne draws his axe? **
Arganyev: hey, bandits lack of valuable glands!)
Arganyev: what annoying
Generic Monster: As Beltarne and Singeon step into the open air, they are greeting by arrows, bolts, and sling stones from the bandits that have been patiently waiting.
Sithis: where are us, in the mines or in the open floor?
| 1) YOUR TURN NOW:: [30] Thog (on deck: [28] Sithis) |
Lenia: Which map should we be looking at? The ones I can see on my list are all still in the caverns.
Arganyev: I thought we were in open place
** Singeon says, "Hey! Stop it!" **
** Thog drops his pack and readies his bow and arrow instead. **
GM: sorry!
Arganyev: why
Lenia: Thanks. =)
Generic Monster: 2 slings and an arrow at Beltarne [3d6.skill(13,-1)] => [5,6,4] = 15 vs (12) or less Failure! by 3 [3d6.skill(13,-1)] => [6,3,3] = 12 vs (12) or less Success! by 0 [3d6.skill(14,2)] => [2,2,2] = 6 vs (16) or less Critical Success! by 10 [B556]
Beltarne: ow.
Beltarne: DR 4 on the body.
Generic Monster: 1 sling and 1 bow, and 1 crossbow at Singeon [3d6.skill(13,-1)] => [6,6,1] = 13 vs (12) or less Failure! by 1 [3d6.skill(13,2)] => [3,2,2] = 7 vs (15) or less Success! by 8 [3d6.skill(13,3)] => [3,6,4] = 13 vs (16) or less Success! by 3
Singeon: Acrododge and dodge
Singeon: retreat as well
Beltarne: Can I block that one success, or am I surprised?
Singeon: everything disappeared on my maptools
Thog: ((Dropping pack is a free action, I hope? Or do I need a ready maneuver?))
Generic Monster: you're both surprised because you were doing nothing, and you can't retreat against ranged attacks anyway. make dodges at -4.
Singeon: Skill: Acrobatics (15): [3d6.skill(15,0)] => [4,3,4] = 11 vs (15) or less Success! by 4
Beltarne: Only a free action if it's a quick release backpack. Otherwise you need to untangle the straps - and you'll need to put weapons down to do that.
Lenia: ((Ready maneuver for a normal backpack; free action for quick-release, and may break fragile stuff inside. I'd recommend the ready action in either case, since you're carrying most of the treasure.))
Singeon: can i acrododge?
GM: uhm... sure.
Beltarne: Dodge (9) [3d6.skill(9,-4)] => [6,1,6] = 13 vs (5) or less Failure! by 8
GM: Thog - you're pulling the stuff along as you crawl, so you don't need to ready. but you can't stop crawling until you get to the front of the cave.
Arganyev: hm, you have armor
Singeon: One sec
Thog: ((Okay, re-describing my action to fit the situation better))
Singeon: I dodge and drop
GM: sling versus Beltarne [1d6+1] => [3,1] = (4) DR4; arrow versus same [3d6.crit_hit()] => [3,1,3] = 7 If any damage penetrates DR, treat as major wound. See [B420] for major wounds. [B556] and [1d6+2] => [2,2] = (4) DR4
Singeon: instead
Singeon: Defend: Dodge (Enc 0) (12): [3d6.skill(12,3)] => [2,1,2] = 5 vs (15) or less Critical Success! by 10 [B556]
GM: Beltarne, you take 3 damage. Your dwarven armor absorbs the crappy human arrow without penalty.
Arganyev: ...
Singeon: I am prone now.
** Thog is startled as the arrows hit the floor before him. He lets go of the pull-rope he's dragging and presses himself closer to the wall. **
GM: Dodge the other crossbow, no prone bonus, Singeon.
Thog: ((Done.))
Singeon: Defend: Dodge (Enc 0) (12): [3d6.skill(12,0)] => [6,3,1] = 10 vs (12) or less Success! by 2
GM: You're at -4 for surprise, remember?
GM: The crossbow hits for [1d6+5] => [3,5] = (8) DR5
Singeon: I forgot
GM: You take 6 damage as it penetrates your armor, but being a big guy, you otherwise okay.
Singeon: I have DR 4
GM: Thog, I'll let you spend FP to crawl at 2hexes/round.
GM: Singeon -right, DR4, 8 damage, not quite major.
| 2) YOUR TURN NOW:: [28] Sithis (on deck: [28] Singeon) |
Singeon: Huh?
Lenia: Impaling.
whispering to Singeon, You took 8 damage, not 6. impaling crossbow damage.
Singeon: Did i take 6 or 8?
Lenia: 8.
Singeon: OK
Thog: ((Might do that fast crawl next turn, if I feel safe enough to risk getting out.))
Sithis: I cast gloom
GM: the area is already lit by starlight. casting gloom will not help.
Arganyev: Mark, how to point the Area of Effect?
GM: either draw it with the tools, or use "space" to bring up an arrow like so:
Thog: ((Then make a bright light and ruin their night vision.))
whispering to Sithis, You need to use the darkness spell do do what you're describing.
Arganyev: but Gloom doesn't obscure the starlight as anyother light?
Lenia: Gloom sets the light level to a particular quality; it's already starlight, so the only place left to go is total darkness.
GM: Oh, as Darkness! Sure, but it will take her 2 seconds to cast per hex of radius.
GM: I misread the spell for a second.
Lenia: 4 seconds to cast, total; time spent is 1 second per half-point of base cost, and base cost is 2.
GM: Oops, right.
GM: Sithis, you'll probably want to do something else. Sorry.
Sithis: I lost....
Sithis: cast or not?
Lenia: Don't cast.
Arganyev: Sithis, this is the best place for Lenia's concussion
Sithis: OK
Arganyev: do you remember the effects of the spell? ;)
GM: You'll have to wait 4 turns to cast the minimum spell. why don't you move forward and draw daggers?
Sithis: k, i move forward then
Arganyev: I ready my weapon&shield
Sithis: and draw daggers :)
GM: [3d6.skill(16,0)] => [5,6,2] = 13 vs (16) or less Success! by 3
GM: [3d6.skill(16,-4)] => [4,6,6] = 16 vs (12) or less Failure! by 4
GM: okay.
GM: you can stand up as you leave the cave.
| 3) YOUR TURN NOW:: [28] Singeon (on deck: [25] Beltarne) |
Singeon: Acrobatic Stand (12) [3d6.skill(12,0)] => [2,2,1] = 5 vs (12) or less Success! by 7
Singeon: Im stranding now
GM: That is so wrong.
Singeon: ###
| 4) YOUR TURN NOW:: [25] Beltarne (on deck: [24] Arganyev) |
GM: (by the way, everyone has weapons ready, but Thog's bow isn't loaded).
Singeon: Actually, I have not readied
** Beltarne kneels down to keep out of the line of fire, and starts casting Flaming Weapon. **
Beltarne: Flaming Weapon (Holy) (16) [3d6.skill(16,0)] => [5,4,2] = 11 vs (16) or less Success! by 5 Includes: +4 from 'Power Investiture (Holy)'
Beltarne: takes two turns. ##
GM: Time to cast is 2.
GM: okay.
| 5) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Arganyev (on deck: [24] Lenia) |
GM: (shield users at least have shields ready).
Beltarne: sorry, rolled early :/
GM: Arganyev steps forward and draws his sword as he said earlier.
| 6) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Lenia (on deck: [20] bandits) |
Lenia: Am I able to crawl my one hex and cast?
Arganyev: that is)
GM: You're crouching, not being a 9' tall monstrosity. so you can crouch and step and cast.
Lenia: Haste on Singeon.
GM: roll it.
Thog: ((I protest that remark. Thog happens to be quite charming amongst his kind.))
Arganyev: ok, empowered rushing!
Lenia: Haste: [3d6.skill(17,0)] => [2,2,3] = 7 vs (17) or less Success! by 10 costing 3 FP for +2 to Move and Dodge.
GM: casting time is 2.
GM: GURPS Magic is suck.
| 7) YOUR TURN NOW:: [20] bandits (on deck: [30] Thog) |
Arganyev: 2 seconds arent no drama, not now
Lenia: Yeah, clearly.
Lenia: Solution: Magery 6.
Generic Monster: the lead 3 drop slings and ready spears and maces. The back 2 drop crossbows and ready spears. The last 1 draws an arrow.
| 1) YOUR TURN NOW:: [30] Thog (on deck: [28] Sithis) |
Thog: ((Can't Thog even get out at this moment?))
Thog: ((Entrance looks crowded))
Generic Monster: He'll have to crawl forward for a while. I'd hurry.
GM: He'll have to crawl forward for a while. I'd hurry.
Lenia: ((By the time you get here, we'll be out of the way.))
GM: He needs to get where Singeon is before he can stand.
** Thog crawls as fast as he can. Staying here will be bad. Needs to get out in the open fast. Get room. **
GM: move it, spend 1 FP.
Thog: ((Think how many hexes can I move? 6/2?))
GM: 2
Thog: (Done)
| 2) YOUR TURN NOW:: [28] Sithis (on deck: [28] Singeon) |
GM: Sithis?
Sithis: sorry, Im distract
GM: okay.
Sithis: I forward
Arganyev: n ono
Arganyev: she is ready now
Sithis: all the possible
Sithis: the bandits are too far for me
Lenia: "Hang back, everyone. I think I can probably talk some peace into them."
GM: It's easy to run downhill.

Singeon: Fastdraw rapiers and MOVE like a thing that moves fast!

| 5) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Arganyev (on deck: [24] Lenia) |
Sithis: Singeon, you trick! not possible move more than me! angry!
Narrator: Beltarne prays in Dwarven, and his axe burns with dark fire.
GM: Movement, Arganyev?
Lenia: "You guys have such an excellent grasp of 'Hang back'."
Arganyev: dark fire? You heretic? Hm...
Arganyev: I moved all the possile
Arganyev: 4
GM: C'mon, how bright is holy dwarven flame going to be, anyway?
GM: Okay.
| 6) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Lenia (on deck: [20] bandits) |
Arganyev: ####
Arganyev: Lenia is very able to make a negotiation, folks)
GM: -5 penalty to cast on Singeon, or less on Arganyev or Beltarne.
Sithis: with bandits? I disbelieve
Lenia: I'll cast on Arganyev; he needs the Move more anyway.
Lenia: Haste: [3d6.skill(17,0)] => [1,5,3] = 9 vs (17) or less Success! by 8 costing 3 FP for +2 to Move and Dodge.
** Arganyev whispering 'If they don't accept ALL our conditions, they will be skewered' **
GM: eh, so does Beltarne. =/
| 7) YOUR TURN NOW:: [20] bandits (on deck: [30] Thog) |
Generic Monster: The bandits fall back, except for the archer, who frantically knocks an arrow and brings his bow to bear over his companion's shoulder.
| 1) YOUR TURN NOW:: [30] Thog (on deck: [28] Sithis) |
Thog: ((Did I mention that I really hate my current position?))
GM: Sorry. Hurrying?
** Thog hopes that the bandits will be too distracted by the others and crawls further. **
| 2) YOUR TURN NOW:: [28] Sithis (on deck: [28] Singeon) |
Thog: (yes, hurrying. 2 hexes again?))
GM: yes.
Sithis: Move forwad again, all possible
Sithis: move*
Sithis: OK
GM: You run as you can, trying to keep the archer in sight.
| 3) YOUR TURN NOW:: [28] Singeon (on deck: [25] Beltarne) |
Singeon: Keep on running! And a jump!
Singeon: thats 5
GM: hmm. roll jumping or acrobatics.
Singeon: Skill: Acrobatics (15): [3d6.skill(15,0)] => [4,6,5] = 15 vs (15) or less Success! by 0
Singeon: So, I had 5 at the top.
Singeon: What did that cost?
GM: You land clumsily in the darkness. -2 to defenses until you take a round to balance yourself.
GM: darkness==starlight sky.
Singeon: So no more move?
GM: No more move.
| 4) YOUR TURN NOW:: [25] Beltarne (on deck: [24] Arganyev) |
Beltarne: Okies hm.
Beltarne: Get to my feet and move towards the fight.
GM: run forward? the low wall doesn't extend past the first orange line.
| 5) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Arganyev (on deck: [24] Lenia) |
Arganyev: well.... I move forward, running all the possible with my shield raised for cover!
Lenia: You know, I have the strangest feeling that it'll be difficult to convince them a peaceful solution is possible.
GM: you jumping down the cliff? Roll jumping at -3.
Lenia: What with the insane people charging towards them with bared steel.
Arganyev: yes
Arganyev: OK:
Arganyev: [3d6] => [6,3,2] = (11)
Arganyev: no, wait
Arganyev: a moment, I didn't jump over the cliff,
GM: you rolled...
Arganyev: I did jump only to the lower place of the "stair"
Arganyev: look at my position, Im not in the floor, not yet
Arganyev: at least that was my intention
GM: sure, sure. in the darkness, you landed on a loose rock, and are driven to your knees. 1 round to stand, lost balance and -2 to all defenses until you take another round to rebalance.
Arganyev: a shortcut in the passage to the floor, the level upper where is Singeon and the Bandits
Arganyev: OK
whispering to Jan, Welcome! we're in a bandit fight. should be easy to figure out. ask questions as you feel free, but it may be a bit before I answer them.
| 6) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Lenia (on deck: [20] bandits) |
Thog: ((Hi Jan))
Lenia: Standing from a crouch is a step?
Lenia: Actually, remain crouched and move forward.
GM: Free action at the beginning of the move.
Lenia: Cast Concussion.
GM: you can do that as a step.
GM: single second casting time?
Lenia: Concussion: [3d6.skill(17,-1)] => [4,4,5] = 13 vs (16) or less Success! by 3
Lenia: Yeah.
GM: FP?
Zed: (hi all.. just lurkin... GURPS newb~)
Lenia: For 3 FP, 2d6 damage.
Lenia: Done.
GM: okay.
| 7) YOUR TURN NOW:: [20] bandits (on deck: [30] Thog) |
Lenia: "We're going to have to work on the 'Hang back and negotiate" tactic, folks."
GM: doing a rules lookup - hang on.
Thog: ((Hi Zed. How did you find us?))
Sithis: I don't want negotiate! I'm bloodlust!!
Arganyev: that can contribute as intimidation
Generic Monster: The lead bandit all-out crosschecks Singeon with a flying tackle! [3d6.skill(14,1)] => [6,1,2] = 9 vs (15) or less Success! by 6 Deceptive -4/-2
Sithis: I don't want negotiate with bandits anyway
Generic Monster: slightly surprised, the other spearfolk move up and the mace guys draw together.
Generic Monster: the archer aims at Sithis.
Singeon: Acrododge, -2 for balance +2 for haste, -2 deceptive
Singeon: Skill: Acrobatics (15): [3d6.skill(15,0)] => [5,1,4] = 10 vs (15) or less Success! by 5
Sithis: and the bandits don't seems to want negotiate...
Singeon: Defend: Dodge (Enc 0) (12): [3d6.skill(12,-2)] => [5,4,5] = 14 vs (10) or less Failure! by 4
Singeon: I use luck
Generic Monster: "Give us your gold, or die!"
Beltarne: We haven't even ASKED if they'd like to negotiate.
Singeon: Defend: Dodge (Enc 0) (12): [3d6.skill(12,-2)] => [2,6,2] = 10 vs (10) or less Success! by 0
GM: punk!
Singeon: Defend: Dodge (Enc 0) (12): [3d6.skill(12,-2)] => [2,5,3] = 10 vs (10) or less Success! by 0
Arganyev: folks, you are making me to be angry! (In character)
Beltarne: Oh. Never mind. There's the negotiation.
Lenia: "Yes, something about INSANE PEOPLE charging them with POINTY THINGS rather than trying to TALK TO THEM."
GM: You're at -1 for the darkness penalty, Singeon. You fail.
Thog: ((This is how the Cavern of Madness get its name. People come out frothing on the mouth charging willy-nilly into certain death.))
Sithis: can I dodge too?
Arganyev: what thing?
GM: No one has shot you yet, Sithis.
Sithis: ah! OK
GM: Another rules check.
GM: Quick rules check: darkness penalties affect defenses, right?
Lenia: Correct.
Lenia: Half the darkness penalty.
GM: cite? (i believe you, just curious)
Sithis: the bandits are humans?
Lenia: One sec.
GM: The bandits are human. 1 just hit Singeon.
GM: [3d6+2] => [5,2,3,2] = (12) vs [2d6+2] => [1,5,2] = (8)
Lenia: Emily and I were discussing this earlier today, but I'm thinking she was wrong.
Beltarne: Hmmm.
Beltarne: Actually, yes, I'm thinking I was wrong. If you can't see, it's -4.
Beltarne: and a block or parry can only be used if you make a Hearing-2 roll to notice the attack.
GM: Singeon, take 6 points of damage before DR and roll DX or fall over.
Singeon: Dr 4- I take 2
Singeon: [3d6] => [1,2,2] = (5)
Singeon: Made DX by 10
GM: damage penalty applies as shock to DX, not that you care.
Arganyev: how much damage suffers Singeon?
Narrator: The bandit slams Singeon back against the wall, but he stays mostly standing.
Thog: ((I can't find any actual rule that says defender gets visibility penalty, although given that defender gets penalized if the attacker's invisible due to smoke or darkness, I think you can rule it either way.))
GM: I'm ruling it applies.
| 1) YOUR TURN NOW:: [30] Thog (on deck: [28] Sithis) |
Singeon: On BS548-549 it shows all penalties that apply. Vision is not listed.
Lenia: It makes sense that it would.
** Thog crawls out. Finally! He stands up and hopes the bandits don't see him or at least get distracted by his companions up front. **
Thog: ((Can I do Change Posture on top of the crawl too?))
Sithis: and Thog don't scare the bandits?
GM: Sure, but it's extra effort.
GM: Sithis, they haven't seen him yet.
Sithis: OK
Thog: (sure. 1 fp or more? And sithis, it's dark, and I'm not carrying any visible light)
Sithis: but Thog scare 'em right?
GM: Who can say?
GM: Thog, move.
Arganyev: he has a heart of gold...
Sithis: :)
| 2) YOUR TURN NOW:: [28] Sithis (on deck: [28] Singeon) |
Thog: (Thanks. Was editing FP.)
Sithis: I cast a dagger from here at archer
whispering to Thog, I have you at 8.
Sithis: a knife, sorry
GM: Your silvered knives aren't balanced for throwing. Drop 1, draw a goblin throwing knife, and throw it?
Sithis: OK
Sithis: I do
GM: roll fastdraw (skill 16), and then throwing (skill16 at -4)
Sithis: [3d6] => [3,3,1] = (7)
Sithis: [3d6] => [1,1,6] = (8)
Arganyev: fastdraw done
Arganyev: done again
Sithis: hey! success!
Arganyev: yeah
Generic Monster: to see the knife [3d6.skill(10)] => 3d6.skill(10)
Generic Monster: to see the knife [3d6.skill(10,0)] => [4,2,4] = 10 vs (10) or less Success! by 0
Generic Monster: bravery? [3d6.skill(11,0)] => [6,5,4] = 15 vs (11) or less Failure! by 4
Generic Monster: He flinches and dodges as best he can [3d6.skill(7,-1)] => [2,4,6] = 12 vs (6) or less Failure! by 6
GM: Damage is 1d-2, but you spoiled his aim.
Sithis: [1d6] => [6] = (6)
Arganyev: total 4 basic damage
GM: You fail to penetrate his armor, but you spoiled shot.
Sithis: good!
Sithis: but this not aim me more!
GM: (she's past 1/2 damage range, so she only did 2 points).
GM: True, true.
| 3) YOUR TURN NOW:: [28] Singeon (on deck: [25] Beltarne) |
Singeon: Step, Dual Thrusts to Vitals (-1), Deceptive -4/-2, -2 for shock (total -7 to hit)
Arganyev: aha
GM: -3 for starlight.
Arganyev: go go

Singeon: Step, Dual Thrusts to Vitals (-1), Deceptive -2/-1, -2 for shock -3 (total -8 to hit)
Singeon: OK?
Singeon: Attack: Saber L Swing (22): [3d6.skill(22,-8)] => [3,3,3] = 9 vs (14) or less Success! by 5
Singeon: Attack: Saber R Swing (22): [3d6.skill(22,-8)] => [2,2,3] = 7 vs (14) or less Success! by 7
Sithis: what is the blue circlet?
Singeon: So im only giving them a -1
Generic Monster: She's prone and just all-out attacked, so it's easy for you to cuts her in the back and cut up her lungs. No defense, roll damage.
Arganyev: OK, you defend now!
Singeon: Damage: Saber (Thrust): [1d6+3] => [5,3] = (8) imp
Singeon: Damage: Saber (Thrust): [1d6+3] => [5,3] = (8) imp
Singeon: 24 total?
Arganyev: well, that should suffice
GM: Dr2 armor, vitals, 36 points. people need to have more vital organs to be alive then she has.
** Singeon yells "Who's next, bastards!" **
| 4) YOUR TURN NOW:: [25] Beltarne (on deck: [24] Arganyev) |
Singeon: ###
Sithis: well done Singeon!
** Beltarne runs up. **
Beltarne: ###
Beltarne: Filthy fast people.
Lenia: Look on the bright side, Beltarne.
GM: heh.
| 5) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Arganyev (on deck: [24] Lenia) |
Lenia: Being slow means you're out of range of what I'm about to do.
Beltarne: Hee hee hee
Sithis: envy!
Lenia: Wait, no.
Lenia: No, you're not.
Arganyev: I stand up, Mark
Lenia: Sorry.
Arganyev: can I move or anything?
GM: it's a step and you can't take it as part of a move maneuver. so no.
| 6) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Lenia (on deck: [20] bandits) |
Arganyev: ### then
Lenia: Step forward and toss the Concussion at Bandit #3's hex. -3 for light, -3 for range, +4 for aiming at the ground.
GM: okay.
Arganyev: luck Lenia!
Lenia: Innate Attack: [3d6.skill(14,-2)] => [3,1,2] = 6 vs (12) or less Success! by 6
GM: He takes how much damage?
Lenia: Damage in that hex is [2d6] => [4,3] = (7) divided by 3 for every hex distant; all within 10 yards roll HT-3 or are stunned.
Lenia: HT: [3d6.skill(12,-3)] => [2,2,4] = 8 vs (9) or less Success! by 1
GM: So, HT rolls at -3 for everyone!
Singeon: Do i take 1? I am within 3 yards
Sithis: who is at 10 yards?
Arganyev: [3d6] => [2,2,2] = (6)
Thog: (Not me. 11 yards! Yay!)
Arganyev: I think Lenia isn't)
Lenia: DR counts, Singeon, so probably not.
Singeon: [3d6] => [4,4,6] = (14)
Lenia: Lenia's at 8 yards, I counted.
Beltarne: HT (13) [3d6.skill(13,-3)] => [3,4,5] = 12 vs (10) or less Failure! by 2
Singeon: I miss my HT roll by 4
Sithis: the tall of wall doesn't count?
Arganyev: luckily for you , all them are stunned
Arganyev: too
** Singeon says, "lookit the birdies! Tweet tweet!" **
Sithis: am I in 10 yards or not?
GM: Sithis, you're in range. You too, Arganyev
Arganyev: if Beltarne is, you too..
Arganyev: Mark, I did my HT roll successfully
Sithis: [3d6] => [2,6,5] = (13)
GM: Sorry, Arganyev, missed it.
Arganyev: I rolled a 6
Sithis: missed :(
Arganyev: it is some lines upwards
Narrator: Thunder cracks the night, as Lenia evokes her favorite spell and catches friend and foe in a rush of ear. All of the bandits are holding their ears, eyes agape, but so are most of the delvers.
Arganyev: however you are the GM, so if you want to me roll again...
GM: No, I see it now, just not at first. Thanks!
| 7) YOUR TURN NOW:: [20] bandits (on deck: [30] Thog) |
Generic Monster: The lead bandit's blood pools outward from her gaping wounds. The others grasp their heads in pain.
| 1) YOUR TURN NOW:: [30] Thog (on deck: [28] Sithis) |
** Thog draws and readies his bow and arrow in one smooth practiced motion. Then he noticed that... the bandits aren't moving much. What an opportunity! (And if the rolls succeed, I step forward and shoot someone.) **
GM: okay.
Thog: Fast-Draw (Arrow) (15) [3d6.skill(15,-1)] => [6,4,1] = 11 vs (14) or less Success! by 3
Thog: Bow (17) [3d6.skill(17,+1 -1)] => [1,6,5] = 12 vs (17) or less Success! by 5 Conditional: +1 from 'Weapon Bond (Oversized Longbow)'
whispering to Thog, There's no penalty on the fast-draw roll, btw,
Sithis: Thog, destroys all!
** Thog steps forward and lets loose the arrow at the bandit in front of Singeon. (bandit 4) **
GM: your night vision counters the darkness penalty, too.
GM: he's got cover, unless you make it a head/neck shot.
Thog: Longbow [3d6.skill(18,0)] => [6,6,6] = 18 vs (18) or less Critical Failure! [B556]
GM: you're at -4 for range.
Arganyev: dang
GM: want to spend a CP for a reroll?
Thog: (Okay, why is it that when you put it the wrong modifier and hit x to close the window you instead roll the dice?)
Arganyev: I think a headshot should suffice...
GM: I'm an idiot about the sheet - check with Bruno (Beltarne) or Lenia.
Lenia: ((Because OpenRPG was coded by spastic monkeys.))
Arganyev: OMG an ogre is on my back!)
GM: no reroll? okay. [3d6.crit_miss()] => [1,1,6] = 8 Your weapon turns in your hand; must Ready it before it can be used again. [B556]
Thog: (yeah, spend CP. Also, what's the penalty for head/neck shot?)
GM: oh/
Beltarne: (( It's the OpenRPG. ))
Beltarne: (( monkeys. yes. ))
GM: you're at -9 before acc bonus, so a 12- to hit.
Thog: (Thog has night vision, btw)
GM: Yes, I said that earlier. Roll, please!
Thog: Longbow [3d6.skill(18,+3 - 12)] => [2,2,3] = 7 vs (9) or less Success! by 2
GM: he can't effectively dodge between the darkness and the stunning. roll damage.
Thog: Longbow [2d6+8] => [6,3,8] = (17) imp
Arganyev: dead
GM: it's piercing, not impaling!
GM: so he only takes 17 damage.
Lenia: The macro's built for standard longbow arrows.
Lenia: That's my fault.
GM: ah!
Sithis: and with this, the bandits don't scare yet?
Lenia: Even if they're scared, what are they going to do? They're all stunned.
Arganyev: they are stunned, too much for making anything
Narrator: Thog rushes out of the cave and readies his massive bow. Stumbling slightly, he launches a bolt into a bandit's nose and drops him a massive spray of blood.
| 2) YOUR TURN NOW:: [28] Sithis (on deck: [28] Singeon) |
Sithis: something for left the stunned
Sithis: [3d6] => [6,1,5] = (12)

GM: There's no penalty to jump the rest of the way down, it's only 1 foot.

GM: yes.
GM: 2 MP.
Arganyev: then I make an Heroic Charge (Extra Effort) and slash at Bandit4
GM: 4 is dead. 5?
Arganyev: 5
GM: okay. roll it, -3 for darkness
Arganyev: Broadsword against bandit:
Arganyev: [3d6] => [4,3,3] = (10)

Lenia: Move. Done.
| 7) YOUR TURN NOW:: [20] bandits (on deck: [30] Thog) |
Narrator: The bandits look in horror as their brotherhood dies, but they can't focus enough to do anything about it.
| 1) YOUR TURN NOW:: [30] Thog (on deck: [28] Sithis) |
** Thog steps forward as he readies and nocks another arrow to his bow. **
Thog: Fast-Draw (Arrow) (15) [3d6.skill(15,0)] => [6,1,2] = 9 vs (15) or less Success! by 6
Thog: Bow (17) [3d6.skill(17,-1)] => [5,2,4] = 11 vs (16) or less Success! by 5 Conditional: +1 from 'Weapon Bond (Oversized Longbow)'
GM: attacking?
** Thog shoots at bandit2. **
GM: -2 to hit for cover, -4 for range.
Thog: (yes. any cover, etc?)
Sithis: better, the 3
Sithis: no, it is true, better the 2
Thog: Longbow [3d6.skill(18,-6+3)] => [4,3,1] = 8 vs (15) or less Success! by 7
GM: damage, he can't dodge?
Thog: Longbow [2d6+8] => [2,6,8] = (16) pi
GM: His armor prevents 1 point of damage. The other 15 get through and he falls over.

Singeon: OK
GM: Beltarne?
GM: must be sleepy.

** Beltarne fails to recover from stunning. **
Beltarne: HT [3d6.skill(13,-3)] => [1,5,6] = 12 vs (10) or less Failure! by 2
Lenia: I think with Arganyev and Singeon active, and them still stunned, the bandits are done for.
GM: let's let Arganyev get his kill in, if he wants one, and then call it.
** Arganyev shouts 'Tyrandor, your Holy Strength is mine too!' (Blessed: Heroic Feat for raising Strength, 1d) **

GM: okay.
Lenia: Done.
GM: I'm guessing that Thog, Singeon, and Arganyev can kill 1 guy with a bow in the 3 rounds it will take him to recover from stun.
GM: So I call this fight over.
Singeon: Aye, sir
Lenia: I really was going to negotiate.
GM: Congratulations! You have defeated the defenses of the Caverns of Madness!
Lenia: But then everyone charged.
Beltarne: Hee.
Singeon: I missed your negotiate thing. I though we were going for it, that's why you hasted me
Arganyev: I know, Lenia
Arganyev: indeed she hasted me ?
Thog: ((Thog had no preference.))
GM: I could roll out some random encounters for the road home, but they'd be fodders and worthies and you'll recover before leaving.
GM: So.
Singeon: Negotiate with the last one, then we kill him!
Beltarne: Heh.
Arganyev: wow folks , we completed The Caverns of Madness!!!!!! Success!!!!!!
Beltarne: Hurray!
** Singeon cheers for joy! **
Sithis: I agree with Singeon, hehe
Beltarne: Big party at the inn! Lenia's paying!
GM: You make it back to Polisberg. We'll handle buying, selling, paying off your sponsors, and the like over email during the next week.
Singeon: Okay!
Lenia: Why does everyone assume Lenia will buy things? ;_;
Beltarne: Greed, Miser. :D
GM: Thanks for playing, everyone.
Thog: Thog wants whole cow. And whole barrel of dwarven ale.
Lenia: She spends her reward on ale and whores, not parties.
