Re: Interest and OCC Thread

Hummm, I may need to step up my characters personality a bit, because right now she's starting to seem like the plain girl from The Office.

Re: Interest and OCC Thread

Huh. Should I be playing my maids, too, right now? I could probably get some characterization or whatever if I bounced off them or something, and it might give me some descriptive meat outside of one-liner descriptions of how I'm standing.

I'm still very unsure what to do with Daz. This is problematic.

No, the maids are NPCs, so I'll be running them. But since you specifically picked them you can give me some personality bits. So far I have stoic, professional but still friendly for one, shy, enthusiastic and crushing for the other.

If you work on gaining more servants, I'll generate them myself. :D

That sounds pretty good. Though, I imagine Han to keep herself more neutral and distant than friendly when she deals with unfamiliar people. Also, she takes a lot of pride in herself and as Alice's "right hand".

Not sure what's going on in messengers. Are people just talking about engaging zombies, or are they actually gonna move out? Cause you can do that all in one post, using the word 'if' to provide a possible condition.

Re: Interest and OCC Thread

I was intending to fight them with Siehydra and just have Teeu tag along, I'll edit but it probably won't be good because I'm in a horrible mood at the moment.

Nay! Don't blarg in a bad mood. You must be relaxed to let the creativity flow with positive ki.

Re: Interest and OCC Thread

So, I edited my last post in the messengers thread a little bit to make it a bit clearer.

Also since I was wondering this the other day during character creation, what are the limits of the bitter fruit spell thingy? Just medicine, poison, and the listed effects? Or is there room for creativity there?

Re: Interest and OCC Thread

Double post but I have another question, does being mounted have any bearing on combat?

Also, sorry if you were waiting on me to post. I was celebrating germany losing, and me winning a bet yesterday, and didnt feel like posting drunk.

I was in a terrible mood for a while or else I would have posted.

Yes. Mounts are much faster than you, and provides another target for enemies to attack. Mounts have a huge Soak value from Strength, which off sets their abysmal Agility. The rider's Animal Ken skill increases the threshold to hit them by an opposed roll, and the Kite Shield further enhances this by 1.

War trained mounts don't freak out in combat at all, and also use your Animal Ken skill instead of their own Combat skill to attack (sometimes with a good natural weapon, like teeth or claws), unless their Combat skill is higher anyway. They also benefit from your edge to resist things like mental magical effects. Keeping an untrained mount from freaking out is a threshold 2 challenged, while keeping a wild animal from freaking out in combat is a threshold 3 challenged.

Re: Interest and OCC Thread

I am just going to point out for the sake of hopefully moving things along: I have nothing to add to the thread at this time.

Re: Interest and OCC Thread

I WAS planning on an elaborate off-the-cuff supply tent medkit heist, but it was probably stupid. Potentially awesome if I pulled it off, but just stupid otherwise.

How big is the supply tent, anyway? I'm sorta envisioning a dinky wigwam teepee lean-to with like three crates and a girl squeezed in someplace, but that's probably silly for... what was it? Seven tents of hospital beds?

Re: Interest and OCC Thread

The open tents are large enough to act as a a small party hall in the middle of a street. They are designed to keep lots wounded soldiers out of the rain while medics have access to them for life saving treatment surgery. The quality of this environment is just good enough to not modify the threshold to heal someone. The supply tent is the same size, it's just got its flaps closed.
