Warlock! OOC Discussion

Thanks for going the extra mile, Len -- and sweet openers, everyone!

Jabes, one quick thing. As much as I loved all the Jaws references in your first post, I want to make sure we keep the overall grim and gritty laced with dark humor vibe going. Not convinced a full-on cartoon character won't t-bone that a bit, so I figured I'd mention it now. Possible to make Foghorn more your own and less a cartoon rooster? =]

Yup, I'll set up and ask for rolls after we hear from our dwarf...

All good! No worries -- new post up now. ;)

Much appreciated -- sorry to be rigid. I'm a stickler for tone. ;)

All good. And you shall be the first person I invite when I run Toon. =]

Or perhaps For the Dungeon, which would rock with that off-the-wall vibe.

And you haven't seen the crit tables in action yet! ;)

Just a quick note to point out the difference between an opposed roll (say, Stealth vs. Spot) and combat. In an opposed roll, both parties roll 1d20 and add their skill. The winner -- wins. Even if they don't hit 20.

In combat, it's weapon skill vs. weapon skill, with the highest roll again winning -- and scoring damage, inflicting a status effect, etc. And it is in this case (combat), and this case *only*, that the aggressor / instigator gets +5 on their roll...

Make sense?

Oh, FYI, a tie in combat will typically be a stalemate, or, more interestingly, both combatants score hits.
