  Whores! we want "poems that kill."
  Assassin poems, Poems that shoot
  guns. Poems that wrestle cops into alleys
  and take their weapons leaving them dead

  Got it.

  
  

  Okay, I'm going to Spirit roll to bolster Ba. Seems like a good idea?

  Give it a roll.

  Good job. 

  
  

  Min now has 1 group advantage.

  There is a new poll on the next theme to be worked on and put up.

  
  

  Please vote for Transformation. Do it for me.

  As a favor to me, vote for Transformation. Because I have been working on that since day one and I'd like to see it done.

  Done.

  
  

  Isn't it Zuo's turn now?

  There's still Gu Long's and Er Gui's turn, actually. I'll take mine if you want.

  Gu Long makes a group bolster roll. [20, 16, 1]. Success.

  
  

  Gu Long now has 1 group advantage.
• CaptivePhantom

  2014-07-10 22:17:25

  So is it my turn now? Think I might try to grapple Zuo. Figure it's a physique roll. 

  
  

  [20,9,8]+3.

  Success: Zuo's next roll is decreased. Please do a descriptive post.

  
  

  Zuo makes a Spirit ranged attack against Min. [20, 20, 13]. This might be a good time to use that group advantage.

  Yes, I believe I will. 

  
  

  Let's reduce that, shall we?

  Group advantage expended.

  
  

  "Decrease the attack’s roll and the attacker decreases his damage 3 steps (from 1d8 to 1d2, for example)."

  
  

  Successful attack. 1d6 ==> 1d4 ==> 1d2 == 0. Min takes no damage.

  What damage does he take from Gui's Rend Flesh?
• CaptivePhantom

  2014-07-10 23:51:43

  Just grappling, not rending flesh yet. Although, yeah, I do think I should roll for grapple damage or something. Not entirely sure how grappling works to be honest.

  Okay so I'm an idiot. Grappling is a melee attack, but with decreased damage.

  
  

  So roll a 1d6 + Brawn.

  I did a Serpent theme. Maybe.

  
  

  You can use it, if you want.
• CaptivePhantom

  2014-07-11 10:56:31

  Ah okay that's what I thought, but wanted to confirm. [4]+3=7

  
  

  Couple more good hits and we got this.

  Zuo uses his Brawn to shake Gui off. [18, 14, 9] +3, decreased. Success.

  
  

  He is no longer grappled.
• CaptivePhantom

  2014-07-12 02:13:30

  Well there goes my plan of Rending Flesh, but also I guess now if one of y'all wants to shoot him, well, don't gotta worry about me.

  By the way since it's Phantom's birthday and I don't know what else to get him, he gets a free level.

  
  

  Which just means he gets one extra trait.
• CaptivePhantom

  2014-07-12 18:26:53

  I think I'm gonna go with an Undeath Exploration trait called "Unlife and Unlimb"

  Unless you want something from Steam or some such. Or including.

  All dice-rolling, out-of-character discussions go here.

  
  

  All role-playing, in-universe, in-character descriptions go in the other thread. Folks are busy right now, so the rest of us are just shooting the shit and talking about things. We have not abandoned the other thread.

  Heh, right then. I actually rolled up these numbers yesterday. Just got distracted and saved the draft.

  
  

  Spending the second advantage to increase all the dang rolls. 

  
  

   [8,11,14]+2 

  
  

   Roll(1d8) --> (3d6)+4: [2,6,1,]+4

  Okay, I'm doing spirit because, frankly, doing anything fast with those pigstickers in Min would probably fall under Endurance.

  Gu Long uses his trait Jet Storm. Spirit bolster roll. [18, 10, 9]. Success.

  heh well first really dig the idea of magical evolving items and second, I mean, I do follow that sub so I might've seen it anyway

  
  

  No one tell Kraken that I never check my front page so I might not have actually seen it.
