    I think it was! I enjoy your writing. And now we've both abandoned the pretense of 'smaller posts now', lol.

    Incidentally, I've been thinking of the sanity impact of this childhood. I don't want to just load you with insanity points; but you can't be completely sane after this. So he's what I think I want to do:

    Nameless is going to emerge into the world with 0 Insanity points, but 2 phobias. You can decide what they are - fear of enclosed spaces, fear of rats, fear of being bound, whatever. But these insanities - unlike those you earn in play - you'll have chances to conquer during the game. Have a think and pitch me the fears you'd like most.

    I'll come up with something.

    And yes, it seems that long posts might need to be toned down just a tad in the future haha. I was listening to this the whole time for inspiration.

    Hmm.

    Bananafriend, I appreciate your "better to ask forgiveness than permission" attitude. I like your post! Very touching - I wasn't sure how she'd react to the opportunity.

    But I can't let you get away with it. XD I'll let you keep the throwing knife - that's a fine souvenir. But you're not surging into the world with armor and a pair of warplock pistols. Nice try though!

    I can work with the post, though. Posting now!

    She was going to bury them and retrieve them later to sell .

    A girl rocking up to the nearest town with a pair of guns, a whip and carrying warpstone tokens on her would set all sorts of alarm bells off.

    All this description does is make me want to run a The Last Gunslinger game.

    Might be worth updating your character sheet, too - it's worth including a 'base' profile and then your current one, to help track which advances you've taken. You should now have gotten everything available in the slave career, plus Nightvision. You speak only Queekish fluently; with a dormant grasp of a language others will later tell you is Wastelander, and fragments of Norscan.

    XD I'm just teasing.


    Though having a wealthy Skaven engineer to loot, one who had stocked up on his affects in order to travel, would have been one of the luckiest breaks ever that a slave could get before running off into the woods a free person lol.

    Hahaha!

    Well, I was going for less 'faked own death' John Kreese style, and more 'played dead' cunning desperate animal style.

    And yes, that WOULD have been lucky! But you had enough luck - you survived and escaped skaven slavery! XD And now to survive everything else.

    But I do have an ongoing character sheet: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1...it?usp=sharing



    However, she already received a +5 Agility from her Seventh Scar. So I'm assuming you meant her 12th scar was a typo and meant to say +5 instead of +10?

    Well I wanted to give you the chance to grab one and have a standoff, if you so wanted! But you have elected the way of... Well. Chill. The way of chill.

    Well, yes but know. I mean... to prevent confusion (although, here we are), instead of gaining stacking +5 increments, I've adopted the way of wiser GM's I've seen, who note the advances individually. So you don't have two +5 agility advances - you can only gain the +5 Agility advance one time. You have the +5 Agility advance, and then the +10 advance; the second not available until you've taken the first. Thus hopefully to prevent confusion for a hypothetical player who has gone through three careers with +5 agility advances, hoping he is able to stack them to +15.

    Blah blah, you have +10 Agi!

    To answer the OOC question: given what she's been through, her natural instinct will be to enter the little cave.

    Alright.

    RollA - (1d100)[81]
    RollB - (1d100)[1]

    Can you give me a hearing based perception check? You are opposing RollB, particularly.

    EDIT: Holy hell, Roll B. Still, make the roll anyway. If you roll similarly impressively, you might yet win.
