Thevshi Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 So making two rolls for Synapse (with the +2), she gets a 28 and a 12.
Supercape Posted February 28, 2014 Author Posted February 28, 2014 Ex, I suggest we inflict something like Fatigue or 1 CON damage from Ulysses complication, representing the trek back? (and another HP for that of course). Ready for a scene cut to the nearby town on your command, Ex!
Exaccus Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 I'll go with fatigue i think, Ready when you are Capt'n.
Supercape Posted March 1, 2014 Author Posted March 1, 2014 Synapse - 1 HP - Unharmed Ulysses - 3 HP - Fatigued
Supercape Posted October 13, 2014 Author Posted October 13, 2014 Its a bit of a Stretch, but DC 20 Knowledge (Theology) or (History) to recognise the Tattoos as associated with the Hindu god Kali / Thuggee cult. +4 for Eidectic memory.
Exaccus Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 Thought Id give it a try. Knowledge history 1d20+6=8 turns out he didn't say the name wrong on purpose.
Thevshi Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 Either of those would be the same for Synapse. So, with the +4 for Eidetic Memory, she gets a 26.
Supercape Posted October 15, 2014 Author Posted October 15, 2014 That does fine. Whilst you are of course in an alternative dimension, you recognise the tattoos as symbols of Kali hindu Goddess, in her later incantations as change / violence / destruction. You also recognise some tattoos that have been associated with the Thuggee cult. i.e. he is a lookout for the cult. Feel free to grab some narrative licence about the meanings and symbols - the brush strokes are as above.
Supercape Posted October 23, 2014 Author Posted October 23, 2014 It wont hit immedietly, but the opium is a Fort 10 Save to get fatigued (and it is limited to just causing fatigue, unless you go all out and stuff a pipe in your nostril). Roll em, or take some action to stop breathing it in! 1d20+2=17 Singh is ok!
Thevshi Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 So, Synapse is going to try to read the priest's mind, getting a 23 for her telepathy power check.
Supercape Posted October 24, 2014 Author Posted October 24, 2014 Oh so the THugee are cultists, the Priest is a minor mustic (BoM core book) so has a +6 Will Save: 1d20+6=16not even close, so I will post his thoughts IC!
Thevshi Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 Okay, another power check for Synapse to try to find out if this priest knows where Annie Key is, she gets a 30.
Supercape Posted October 28, 2014 Author Posted October 28, 2014 I'm not even going to roll! That auto wins. For the record, it will mean a probe of deep thoughts rather than surface ones. Still subtle though.
Supercape Posted October 30, 2014 Author Posted October 30, 2014 Right lets have some initiative rolls: This is not a major threat...but... 1d20=2 Captain Singh 1d20=13 Cultists There are five Thugee cultists (M&M Core Book PL 2) The Priest of Kali is a Minor Mystic from BoM p85 Att +2, Def +4, Tough +1, Fort +3, Reflex +2, Will +6 Spells: Mind Blast 3, Illusion (All, Phantasm, Selective) 3, Mind Control 4, Drain CON / Disease / Perception 3, Concealment (Visual) At present, all but the priest are in partial concealment due to the smoke and incense.
Supercape Posted October 31, 2014 Author Posted October 31, 2014 Which means! Round 1: 17 - Synapse - Unharmed - 1 HP 13 - Cultists [5] - Partial Concealment 13- Priest 4 Ulysses 3 Singh Synpase is up!
Thevshi Posted October 31, 2014 Posted October 31, 2014 Synapse will put up her forcefield and mind blast the priest (DC 23 Will save)
Supercape Posted October 31, 2014 Author Posted October 31, 2014 1d20+6=18 he is a minion, but I am going to Fiat that he makes that roll with just a bruise, just to keep things a little interesting! So, Synapse - 2 HP! I appreciate thats a bit of a fudgy thing (on the one hand, he gets two benefits: a reroll and not a minion, on the other, still bruised, and well, I would like him in play for one round!) Post away!
Supercape Posted October 31, 2014 Author Posted October 31, 2014 The thuggee are going to rush y'all! Being a bit mad, that means all out attacking, so -2 to their defence, +2 to their attack. Being a bit sexist still, its 2 kinves on Singh, 1 on Synapse, 2 on Ulysses 1d20+4=21, 1d20+4=12, 1d20+4=20, 1d20+4=23, 1d20+4=21 Singh takes 1 knife: 1d20+0=4 Synapse takes 1 knife Ulysses takes 2 knives, one of which is a crit. However, his impervious toughness means that he can shrug them off without a scratch. Each knife is DC 17. Need one from Synapse. More pertinently, Singh failed by 13, so is Dazed, Staggered, Disabled. more pertinently, the Priest is throwing some powder into the burning incense. This is a Nauseate 0 Power, but will increase +1 every round until a maximum of Nauseate 5. So start with some DC 10 Fort Saves please! The Thuggee have +5 to their Fort save because of being so used to the strange drugs they ingest. And I am waving the first roll. then, Ulysses is up.
Thevshi Posted October 31, 2014 Posted October 31, 2014 Synapse gets a 27 on her toughness save. She gets a 20 on her Fort save.
