Dr Archeville Posted December 6, 2008 Posted December 6, 2008 The OOC thread. Do you want to keep this just between us, or invite a couple of other PCs?
Kavos Posted December 7, 2008 Posted December 7, 2008 I don't mind either way, If there are some others who want to drop in thats fine with me ;)
Dr Archeville Posted December 16, 2008 Author Posted December 16, 2008 Welcome, High Note and Shadow Man!
Reaper Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 If you want to allow some others it's ok with me.
Cyrith Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 All right, heroics time. there's only so long I can have powers without wanting to use them. Especially since I just upgraded.
Dr Archeville Posted January 15, 2009 Author Posted January 15, 2009 Alrighty, I know at least one of my co-conspirators (Kavos) may be MIA for a while, but we should be able to entertain ourselves for a while. High Note & Shadowman, you two still around? I know Geckoman and Quark are. Delemental, you still with us?
Kavos Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 I've still got time to post , It's not until Feb will my schedule become really messed up with beginning to move, my cousins wedding, and handling some other things. but even then my lack of posting will probably be due to lack of internet access. And then again in may for the rest of the move. I'm just trying to limit myself for the time being until the foreseeable future is more stable. ;)

Sandman XI Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 So, Am I supposed to wait for Geckoman to post?
Dr Archeville Posted January 15, 2009 Author Posted January 15, 2009 So, Am I supposed to wait for Geckoman to post? That's entirely up to you.
Sandman XI Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 Quickly crawling back up, he decided to call his friend Quark -- after backtracking and retrieving his Zappers -- and plan a little surprise for this groupThis is the reason I ask :P
Dr Archeville Posted January 15, 2009 Author Posted January 15, 2009 Hrm... replace "call" with "visit" and that'd be closer to what I'm envisioning. I.e., Geckoman sees thugs & overhears their planning, and goes to see Quark just as Quark finishes reading about the job offer. Roll initiative to see who gets to talk first :P
Sandman XI Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 One more thing! Is Oddjobs something you plan to use later or is it something to play around with?
Dr Archeville Posted January 15, 2009 Author Posted January 15, 2009 One more thing! Is Oddjobs something you plan to use later or is it something to play around with? .... what would be the difference? It's a made-up-on-the-spot setting element. Any player or ref can use it in their stories/adventures. As for the website itself that the link goes to, no, I don't plan on actually making it a real site.
Cyrith Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 Still here, though I also just started back to school, so we'll see how availability goes.
Dr Archeville Posted January 19, 2009 Author Posted January 19, 2009 Delemental: Since Tabitha's using her Lust power, I'm guessing she's in her powered form. Does she have anything over her revealing red costume, like a trenchcoat? Or is she in full-on vamp mode?
Delemental Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Delemental: Since Tabitha's using her Lust power, I'm guessing she's in her powered form. Does she have anything over her revealing red costume, like a trenchcoat? Or is she in full-on vamp mode? No, she'll have a black leather trenchcoat on. I don't want him thinking I'm offering a different sort of "professional service". :kiss: Not really trying to seduce the guy, just want to be as... persuasive as possible.
Dr Archeville Posted January 19, 2009 Author Posted January 19, 2009 Cool, that's what I thought might be the case, just wanted to make certain ;)
Kavos Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 Hmm I think poor little Ember has gotten in over his head I mean first you have a demon artisan, now we also have a erm (demonic) Evil lawyer? I think Ember better watch his back Anyone just another update, Apparently there is a good chance that my moving plans will be moved up to lat Feb instead of early may, I'm still relatively free to post for the time being, and I'll keep you updated if things change.
Dr Archeville Posted January 21, 2009 Author Posted January 21, 2009 Kavos, make a Stealth check for Ember to see if he's noticed by either Tabitha or Jos. The DC for our Notice checks will be a few points higher than whatever you get for your Stealth check.
Kavos Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 opps i knew i forgot something :? . Embers Stealth Check :| Ember's Notice Check Erm quick question how does things like extended hearing/ultra-hearing affect the notice roll? (if any)
Dr Archeville Posted January 22, 2009 Author Posted January 22, 2009 Erm quick question how does things like extended hearing/ultra-hearing affect the notice roll? (if any) Extended increase the range increment for Notice checks using the sense. Normally, for every 10 feet of distance between you and some target, you have a -1 penalty on Notice checks to spot/hear/smell/whatever them. With one rank of extended, this increases to 100 feet. With extended hearing 1, Ember can hear something100 feet away as well as a normal person can hear something that's 10 feet away. Which makes him a very good eavesdropper. Ultra-Hearing lets him hear extremely low- or high-frequency sounds (like dog whistles, or the scanners of an ultrasound machine), but that's not an issue here. Ember's hiding on top of a building across the street from Jos's place, right? With that Notice check (19), he can hear them while they talk outside, and while they're at any point in the front half of the house; if they go to the back half, they'll be unintelligible, though he will be ale to hear that they're talking. If either of them whisper, though, it'll be unintelligible if they're in the front half of the house, and completely unnoticed if they're in the back half. Delemental, if Tabitha can make a DC 18 Notice check, she can spot Ember crouching across the street. (I already rolled for Jos, he's evidently busy focusing on other things.)
Dr Archeville Posted January 24, 2009 Author Posted January 24, 2009 For thos involved, the exterior of Jos's house looks like this (image is apparently too big to directly link). Here's the interior map (click here if images don't show):
