You have...no memory of this place. You try to recall your studies of that found tome...

Edit: On the first Example Roll you rolled a 3. Since it was not a 5 or 6, that is the only die that counts. You accurately "wouldn't have rolled" the other two, no matter how good those two were. The Failure from the bonus die doesn't count, because it's not part of the dice given to you by your PV. In the second example, you still only got your three from the main roll, meaning that the 1's you rolled never happened. However, you rolled a Success on your bonus die, and that does count, so now you have two successes total in the second Example roll. Make sense?

Rolls

Example Roll (Nemesis PV 3) - (4d6)

(3531) = 12

Or you can do it like this...Roll 1 - (1d6)

(3) = 3

Roll 2 - (1d6)

(1) = 1

Roll 3 - (1d6)

(1) = 1

Bonus die 4 (Level 3 Sector Mage) - (1d6)

(4) = 4

Ok I got it.. I'll probably just do it 4d6 to simplify I suppose

Wait I thought you said I rolled on enlight for my sector spells..

You are quite right! I've been sick and it's kinda messing with my faculties. But right you are. If you like, go ahead and roll with Enlight instead, and I'll let you take the better total.

So, I'm not sure which outcome is better.. the first roll has a 5 first, so I would add the second dice, which is only a 3... The second roll doesn't have 4 or higher so I'd just be stuck with the first 3? And the bonus dice as well?

So.. if I'm correct, the first roll has 3 successes?? And the second roll has 2?

No worries I've been sick too

You are quite correct! And three successes are quite enough to teleport you and the flying carpet over to the second one! The next carpet is about 20 ft. down and 20 ft. away, though. What's your plan here?

I'll Wait a day until I can teleport again
Sep 20, 2018 11:44 pm
At no point did I say that you have to wait a day before you can teleport again. If I did, I was in error.
Sep 21, 2018 7:05 pm
Ah! That's good news.. I'll assume time has not passed then, and I will take myself and both the original carpet, and the new carpet down towards the other NEW carpet :) (if they have tassels I'll tie them together for good measure)

3 successes, again?
Sep 21, 2018 7:06 pm
Or is it 4 this time?

[ +- ] Sight Rules
That's actually four, because the fourth die is a bonus and not contingent on your base PV roll. Nice!

However, if you were hoping to chain 50 carpets together, I have news for you. You're at capacity. A Sector mage at your level can only take two loads with them at a time.

You have now created a row of three flying carpets, and can move freely between them. Make a Sight check (as regarding the rules in the Spoiler above).

But see... If I tie the carpets together, do they not count as one load?? :) ;)

Isn't a carpet just 1000 loads of thread??

Do I need to sew them together?

Lol xD..
I'll roll for sight now.. , enlight PV

So, 2 is a success right? Or if it's not then I'd have one success meaning just able to see..

But I believe that's 3 successes right?? Meaning I can see it with advanced skill???

OOC:
What if I keep tying the carpets together but I don't teleport them with me I just kinda bring them by the standard default holding them and jumping??

Or are they fixed position flying carpets?

I'm cool with a 3 carpet platform if that's not the case, I had imagined a massive flying quilt :) :) :/ haha

[ +- ] Sight results explanation
[ +- ] Carpet explanation
With that excellent result, you can make out not one, but three carpets. The closest one is 15 feet out and 20 feet down. The second one is 40 feet out, level with the one you're on. The third one is 30 feet out and 30 feet down. Jumping to any of them will put you too far away from the other two, even for your teleporting.
