jameson (ST) Posted October 30, 2013 Author Share Posted October 30, 2013 So I guess my first post wasn't terribly clear, my intent was that all four of you were in the courtyard and able to hear Vannon and Deymish discuss business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jameson (ST) Posted October 30, 2013 Author Share Posted October 30, 2013 following up ... as I said at the outset that I expect 2 posts per week from everybody, but I will be doing what I can to update more frequently for my part as needed in order to help drive things forward ... ergo, post incoming ...

Krugar Rockbiter Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Before I post, was there a specific reason you mentioned Korch did not have his xbow with him that I should be aware of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jameson (ST) Posted October 30, 2013 Author Share Posted October 30, 2013 As I recall Mala's character gives you your starting bow, so I figured I would allow that to happen IC as a point of PC bonding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krugar Rockbiter Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Alright, I thought that might have been it. I just wanted to check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jameson (ST) Posted October 30, 2013 Author Share Posted October 30, 2013 I should also note that I am intending that Alice is visiting the clave in hopes that the Aeon priests may have some knowledge of the effect that summarily stranded her in the region and how she might be able to use it to get back to the coast (note: they do not). ,, Essentially I was hoping to create a level of early PC interaction to allow for additional post content rather than assuming that you all knew each other and thus would have less reason to engage in small talk.

z011 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Korch - Has Arisi already given Korch his bow, or are you looking for her to get him a new one or repair the one in pieces? Any of those is fine for me, I just need to know so I can rp the past or present relationship for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you haven't yet given it to him. I tried to make it easier to happen by having had his current one in shambles. Stepped on by a horse/elephant/drunk cyborg or something.

Destroyed by some kind of creature. ,, I should also note that there will be times when brute force will simply not be an option. Not sure if that will come up in this story, but I know that in some of the follow ups I have run for my TT group they were forced to flee combat against superior foes and rethink their approach to the problem.

jameson (ST) Posted October 31, 2013 Author Share Posted October 31, 2013 [all kinds of IC stuff] OK, that was fucking awesome. Great way to work the background connection into the game and work the setting and cyphers into things without making stuff complicated. ,, Normally to give out EXP during play I need to use GM intervention and make your lives difficult, but that was precisely awesome enough that I'm going to hand a dash out right now to encourage the awesome to flow. Mala, you get 1 EXP, and you can choose one other player to get 1 EXP. ,, As an aside note, until we start getting into the thick of the rulesy bits I find this kind of improvised cypher to be acceptable as it impacts only RP and not any rules or mechanics.

jameson (ST) Posted October 31, 2013 Author Share Posted October 31, 2013 Hmm .... follow up post, who here has the Core book? ,, If you do please read pages 110 through 112 to get the low down on Experience. ,, If you don't please let me know so I can give you a download on the short term uses of experience, as you may find it useful on occasion to burn it on short term and immediate rewards instead of banking it for advancement and other longer term rewards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jameson (ST) Posted November 1, 2013 Author Share Posted November 1, 2013 OK, cool. In the meantime, since Tirrum has a thriving trade (due to the demand of jili berries) if anybody wants to pick up anything in the market it's probably available, basically all of the basic items in the equipment section are available at list. If you buy something feel free to make a post of it, and if you want to try and haggle let me know and we can discuss. ,, I am planning to try and advance things from Tirrum to the journey to Redstone this weekend.

z011 Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 I've got the book and I'll share the XP with Korch, as this is there character connection and that feels right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jameson (ST) Posted November 1, 2013 Author Share Posted November 1, 2013 Sounds good. I sent a PM to Mike with the immediate, short term and medium term experience spends, and was planning to extend that as needed so I guess as needed as "not". ,, being that EXP are a combo-resource that works like WW experience and Fate/Hero/Bennie points ... how would you all like to track this? I can do this online or off, or allow you to do it. The choice is yours. In the meantime keep up the good work and expect an update tomorrow or Sunday.

z011 Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Umm, it might be best to have a running total in a thread just for XP, since they're that sort of mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krugar Rockbiter Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Thanks Arisi ,, I 2nd the notion of an xp thread, whether it being something locked that only you modify or perhaps we each have one post. Easier to keep track until we have a character thread or forum to keep track. I plan to make a reaction post tonight at work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jameson (ST) Posted November 8, 2013 Author Share Posted November 8, 2013 No worries Forge. Since you beat the init you get an action before the creatures. Everybody else has already worked their into their posts, if you can update to include action (and roll) I'll update for the NPCs and open up the second round. I think that will be cleanest.

jameson (ST) Posted November 10, 2013 Author Share Posted November 10, 2013 So, a quick note here ... ,, GMs never roll dice in Numenera. ,, So this round when the birds attack you'll roll your defense (might or speed, your choice), and either take the damage (less armor) or not. Easy peasy right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jameson (ST) Posted November 10, 2013 Author Share Posted November 10, 2013 errm, addendum, you guys need to post your actions for the round as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
