[farothel]

Ciraneoth initiative: (1d10+5)[6]

Is Casian trying to negotiate with the bad guys or is he asking Ciraneoth to wait?

[rax]

I think you mean Andrei, right?

[farothel]

I think you mean Andrei, right?

Yeah, sorry.

[Haval]

Just do what you want. Going to try to talk to the rats first but that's not entirely up to me.

[wilphe]

Well, looks like Winifred will be last in

Try not to die before she gets there

[farothel]

Just do what you want. Going to try to talk to the rats first but that's not entirely up to me.

my initiative is not really good, so you will have a chance to talk before the fecal matter hits the oscillating unit.

[rax]

Having an annoyingly stressful and sleepless week so far. Just checking in to say that Cassian has nothing to add, he's waiting for the wererat's response to Andrei's peacemaking efforts.

[rax]

Calling DrK! You okay? I think we're waiting on the ratman's response to Andrei's attempt at diplomacy.

[DrK]

Calling DrK! You okay? I think we're waiting on the ratman's response to Andrei's attempt at diplomacy.

You are. I'm on it now

Two dog sized rats nd the rat man moving to attack

If you can beat Init of 7 you can go first

[wilphe]

We are keeping the Init we already rolled yes?

[DrK]

We are keeping the Init we already rolled yes?

If you want that is okay

[wilphe]

Well Winifred's sucked but I don't want to metagame

We rolled initative when going into the room

Combat didn't happen and talking unexpectedly broke out

Now fighting, so I can see arguments both ways that this is or is not a new initative

[rax]

Eh, feels like rolling new initiative is reasonable, so I'll do that regardless of what anyone else chooses.

New initiative: (1d10+3)[8]

[farothel]

I rolled in the IC before seeing the discussion here. Use my old one if you decide that this is better.

[wilphe]

I see the NPCs did, so I shall

(1d10)[1]+4

[Haval]

Initiative
(1d10+5)[7]

What's their Ag?

[wilphe]

Fast so -5 to dodge or parry

Fast is usually -10, is this is a custom ability?

[rax]

Rat-dude's first attack hits Cassian in the head and is soaked by AP+Toughness. Rolling to Parry the second attack with Cassian's shield:

(1d100)[84] vs. 52 (WS 52, Defensive +10, Fast -10)

If the Parry fails, Cassian takes 3 W after AP and Toughness (10-7 = 3).

[DrK]

Fast so -5 to dodge or parry

Fast is usually -10, is this is a custom ability?

Yup, its just not that fast

[farothel]

reroll damage as I screwed up the code: (1d10+3)[8] with a silver arrow

[wilphe]

Well second attack is a fury

roll]1d100[/roll] v 51 (41+10)
(1d10)[8] +3

[wilphe]

(1d100)[99] v 51 (41+10) And no...

[DrK]

drop or not to drop (1d100)[45] TN ????

EDIT: drop

Effect It makes you lighter. You get a +10% bonus on checks related to running, jumping, climbing or acrobatics. If you do fall you treat the fall as 3 yards shorter

No one claimed this at the time, possibly because taking it implies giving up a claim on other magic items we find. In any case Winifed or Ciernoth are most likely to find it useful)




Current Loot

There are 3 grimoires that deal with magical theory, and of a suitably generic nature that they would not be banned by the Acadamae

The skin wrapped tome though as he looks at it is saturated with necromantic power. He soon realises that it contains the instructions for a ritual of dark evil. One that could be learned should he wish to learn the forbidden "Flesh stitching of the Necrarch" although just flicking through the book may risk madness and corruption of body and soul

Spoiler: Myrlunds spoon

Show

Named after a Jade Magister of some renown from Mendev these spoons were once common amongst priests near the world wound to help sustain the troops
- Use activated item: Make a chanelling test; apply magic Test (as many dice as you wish/are capable of )

9+: Enough food (sustaining gruel) for 6 person
12+:Enough food (sustaining gruel) for 10 person
15+:Enough food (sustaining gruel) for 25 person

If you use more than 1 die than tzeentch curse strikes and the gruel is mildly toxic and the spoon is depleted for 24 hours. if you use 1 die and it rolls a 1 its just depleted for 24 hours

I presume one of the casters will take this



Ultimate Want List:

Winifred:


2 books at least 75 each (Dilettante Trappings)


Cassian


Knight
Some weapons
Full Plate 400
Destrier 500


Andrei


Ciraneoth:



medium armour (mail shirt)
best craftmanship full leather armour
horse with saddle and harness

I of course wouldn't say no to a magical elf bow or a best craftmanship full chainmail armour, but that might be a bit much.

@DrK

On the subject of magic items, since this is originally a D&D-/Pathfinder adventure, are we able to commission specific magic items for our characters? I've always been a fan of the Amulet of Thrice-Blessed Copper from the WFRP book Realms of Sorcery, but one never turned up in any WFRP I've been able to finish. It would fit really well with where I'm intending to go with Cassian though.

[wilphe]

Are we done with this scene?

Reading back I realise Edgar must have been one of the guys we killed when we came in, so not expecting to find anything else

Winifred will search the place though

[DrK]

Sorry all, I’ve been overwhelmed with work the past couple of weeks. So trying to catch up again, yes, you are essentially finished with this scene. In terms of commissioning magic items it should be possible, especially at the Acadamae

But probably not in the middle of the current plague crisis!

[wilphe]

Welcome back

[rax]

Well, this is annoying. Apart from the fact that the forums are still acting up, I'm not getting any messages when there's a new post in the IC thread. Completely missed that there were new developments until today.

[DrK]

Where are you folk heading? Back to the Marshall or to a pub?
