Let's talk about your characters

Oh ok, good to know then :)

Thanks :)

So, do the XP applied to both or do we have to split it? Can we pick the die we picked for our rolls as one of those two XP dice or is it off limit now?

It's not split, and yes you can use the roll dice in the XP calculation.

Varian said it.

Alright I'm almost ready to start, I've decided on a matsu magistrate. For anyone interested, her not-so-brief bio is on there.

I believe the appropriate response is "SQUEEEEEEEEE!"

Ehem... Welcome, it will be good to have a Lion in the mix. This is going to get interesting :)

Sorry, but I am dropping out. This is the second time I've tried play by post games, but it's just not my thing. Good luck and have fun!

Sorry to see you go fallible, goodbye.

Sorry you don't find your fun on this format.

Bye, falible. We'll miss you. Take care, and don't worry... I'm sure Inara will make sure Yoshi eventually gets some sleep, and eats his vegetables :p

Be well.

Actually, it's 1 die per attribute which are not at 0 (which given the amount of points we were given at character creation, should be all 5 of them). Also, do not forget to check the small box labelled "Reroll Aces" next to your roll as your 10s can explode.

What do you mean 10s can explode? why wouldnt i want a max roll?

By explode he means it is actually not a max roll, because if you roll a 10, then you reroll it, and the result is 10+the new roll. That's why you want to "reroll aces".

I guess, the best example I can give is my post here where I managed to roll an 18 with my last d10...

The week has been a bit chaotic ... I answer tomorrow, promise.

So that was my first PBP post ever, so feel free to tell me if there is anything I'm doing wrong

It's good to go for me.
You got me with that one, big smile right on the start.

Yoshi being a kami was obviously unplanned, and as recently as my last post, I’ve been treating him as fully human. Honestly, I don’t feel like editing all of that, so I’m just going to treat it like a retcon – as far as Inara knows, he’s always been a kami, nothing has changed.

I have also just started a new job – I love it very much but it does take up a lot of the Brain Processing Power during the day, and my shifts are 12-13 hours long. So, at least until I get a rhythm going with my schedule, you may see some shorter posts from me, and/or they may not get done until my days off. But I’m here and all is well! Take care, and I’ll post in the main chat soon.

Correct me if I am incorrectly understanding Itsumi's role in the story thus far; new commander, in control of a company size element, attempting to maneuver that element to attack the Lion Clan from the rear at Dawn while the other Cranes attack from front.

I can't imagine being concerned with reports of a scream in a near by village unless I misunderstood something.

So far, i tried to make you in command for two different aspects.

First, you are the officer in command for the night watch, so everything happening will be reported to you to be managed. That night watch changes every night to set up a rotation among the officers.

Second, your squad for the day to come, setting up for battle.
In the plans you wrote, you said your squad would be going north to take the strengths of the Lion on two sides.

The reports the sentries gave you indicate they perceived strange cries coming from the area you planned to use to hide your troops, waiting for the battle.

If i wasn't clear enough on that point, i apologize.
