I guess we can just have the showdown now, instead of having you came back later 🤣

Yeah I wasn’t counting on the first scene and these things always look faster in my mind 😅 probably good for a real live campaigning but too long for PbP

We're the 5 chapters going to be different generations or all the five chapters for these current charaters?
Oct 30, 2022 10:18 am
😅 same characters … this was supposed to be a one shot or maybe "two" shots 😆
Oct 30, 2022 3:49 pm
Well, I'm enjoying it, however many shots it ends up being 😁

ahah thanks! quick check on how @SavageBob is feeling about it after the weekend. Let me know if the summary was ok :D
Oct 31, 2022 4:01 pm
OK indeed! I'm happy to jump in as Alexander. The length has no doubt been influenced by the players' desire to practice their creative writing chops, so I also wonder if the pace will quicken now that you have folks here like me, who are fathers of young children, and thus people without lots of time to write elegant prose. :D

haha, yeah, kids yelling in the background taught me not to use voice to text anymore.

Roll results are out!

@crazybirdman: Nathaniel got no success so his curse attracts danger

@bowlofspinach. Same for Claire so the supernatural gets her

@Dr_B: Roderick uses the family's name to call out the intruders. 2 success from that 6 on the guile die. You can get both Stakes so you find the trespassers

@SavageBob Alexander has 1 success, so you're the only one that has a decision to make. Do you spend it to avoid the risk (you fall on the grave) or get the reward (find one missing piece for your starting mystery)?

Oh, interesting! Let's go with the mystery reveal, then. So I fall in, but I see something interesting...

Yeah , it's a cool mechanic being able to use successes to buy out of trouble and buy in some extras.

No idea how basically anything works in this game, but I do have 3 Brawl dice. Does that mean I am best off attacking the thing? Maybe pummeling it with my statue?
OOC:
Sorry, busy start of the week.
So you can decide to roll 1,2 or 3 d6s, depending on the effort you're putting on the action (moderate, extraordinary, supernatural). The more you roll, the more likely you are to loose a die.

Now which dice you roll is up to you. The only thing that changes is if you roll a 6 on a die matching the action, it counts twice. But can you can roll one of each if you want. The type of die you roll is more of a role-play guideline. If you want to smash the creature's skull will the bust, it makes sense to roll all brawl, but if you want to be a bit more nuanced and maybe distract it, you could roll one guile and one brawl. You don't have to, but if you roll 3d6, it is sort of assumed you are using your curse as well.

just a quick shout to @SavageBob as we are missing the roll for this action.
Probably a very brawly one .

Let us know if you have questions :D

His immediate assessment is that while the skin and possibly the muscles are still there, there isn't any bone. 'Fascinating as this is, it's going to make life difficult.' he thinks
This is a hilarious reaction 😆

Sorry, a bit late with reviewing what happened. It's mostly for my benefit but I'm sharing the notes if you guys need a quick recap
I will try to get something tomorrow or Thursday but both days are a bit busy :(
Dec 15, 2022 4:00 pm
Thanks much for the recap! I'm catching up. Work's pretty busy, but things should be cooling off for the holidays, so I should be able to post soon.
Dec 16, 2022 12:14 am
so we've all still forgotten about Claire? Does she know, that we don't know her?

also, if I try to activate my curse powers and fail, do I still lose that die?
