Heritage Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Per Mr. Hound's request, here's a dedicated OOC thread for the serial killer investigation, which is probably a good idea; we'll keep the other open for character edit discussion and the like, unless there is a ground-swell of support for locking it.

quotemyname Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 I just like the idea of keeping things organized. So I don't get lost or left in the dust. Ultimately it's up to Heritage to run it however he wants. I just thought it would be useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jameson (ST) Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 IMO 2 OOC threads is just confusing. I don;t mind starting a fresh one each chapter though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special Agent Gary Samson Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 I made a couple of rolls for Gary's work in looking over the file. One for psychology to try and build a psych profile, and the other for investigation, hoping for some kind of "oh I didn't see this before" clue.

quotemyname Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 If the nitty gritty numbers matter for this section of the info dump, Russell will Power Attack those doors for 5. (yay for being able to use my new feats) I think you can still auto hit inanimate objects right? Or was that some crazy house rule that I getting mixed up with how you're actually supposed to play? Power Attacking would make it a Rank 15 damage effect (Save DC 30) Just in case, here's the roll: [quotemyname] 10:22 am: Can you auto hit inanimate objects? Or am I just high or something? [jameson] 10:22 am: you can [Jeremy] 10:23 am: or you can roll vs DC 10 [Jeremy] 10:23 am: and get an auto crit if you hit [jameson] 10:23 am: or that [Carver-working] 10:23 am: Hey, Quote. [jameson] 10:24 am: DC is modified by the objects size however [jameson] 10:24 am: rolling to hit a dime is harder than rolling to hit the earth [quotemyname] 10:24 am: "Large wooden doors"? [Carver-working] 10:25 am: Someone's knocking! quotemyname *rolls* 1d20: 7+3: 10 [jameson] 10:25 am: brb again [quotemyname] 10:25 am: witness? [Carver-working] 10:25 am: I do avow and witness.

Superball Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Nope, but with the general creep factor and the detective getting creeped, I think there is enough WTF to go around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jameson (ST) Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Everyone gets an HP for this disturbing turn of events! OK, I'm going to press this issue. How are we tracking HPs? Are you doing it? Are we? I don't have a preference but I think we need to be on the same page. Plus I have no idea how many HPs I have now. Which only serves to punctuate my questions above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailor OOC Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 SB here. 1: We probably have our normal stock of starting HPs again since this is a new adventure. Although it is Heri's call if that is in fact the case. 2: It is known we just picked up one from a in-game event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quotemyname Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Yea, RAW, you reset to 1HP every time it's a new 'adventure'. Given the time break, I'd say this qualifies. It's also just additional reasoning to press for a new OOC thread every time. That way, there's a real break as well as a logical break between in game adventures. I say we count our own HPs. That way you can post or re-post your count however often you like so as to make sure you remember what you've got. It also takes more weight off the shoulders of the GM, and could help to speed things up so that no one has to ask how many they have and have to wait for a response from Heritage. Hellhound starts at one, and has gained one from an In game event. HH HP Total: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z-Blitz Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I've started to stash my tally in my signature. It is pretty easy to change the sig, so I don't mind tracking it there. Just FYI. Oh, and Blitz post incoming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jameson (ST) Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I still need to know if we got a reset or not. If we did, shame on me for not using my HPs during the prior session, but if we did I want to be able to have all those HPs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heritage Posted July 2, 2012 Author Share Posted July 2, 2012 Since this is like two days after the last thread, I'm inclined to have all unused HP rollover from the previous thread. Blitz's suggestion is actually a good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quotemyname Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Okay, well in that case can we get an offical tally for our total? Edit: Also, I think I'll hold off on further posts until someone else like Blitz or Gary chimes in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heritage Posted July 2, 2012 Author Share Posted July 2, 2012 Gimme a day or two to go back over the previous OOC to figure out what you've all got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heritage Posted July 12, 2012 Author Share Posted July 12, 2012 Okay, so I went over the past thread and stuff that happened here (and Blitz had a little mini-adventure that took place over the weekend), so the HP totals stand thusly: Special Agent Gary Samson: 4 HP Blitz: 3 HP Hellhound: 3 HP Superball: 2 HP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superball Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Heri: I've got no issue with having just two HP. Makes me treasure them more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quotemyname Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 I think I'll wait for Blitz to have a chance to post before making Russ's next post. Expect some comments about how they knocked down a wall same as he did, and there was obviously some connection here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jameson (ST) Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Indeed I was going to make a comment about that, but I need more info since this was only knocked down today and the murders started a while ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quotemyname Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Yea, I don't think Russ mentioned in character that our mysterious quarry mentioned something about being able to 'bleed through the cracks' or something in the hours just before dawn. So maybe if they'd done some minor damage or work around the place earlier... But like you said, Gary would need more info / prompting to come to that conclusion since Russ never actually said anything about it. I'll have him let more info slip in his next post, but it'll be obvious that he didn't think it through too much (because he's not that smart). Gary can put the rest of the pieces together after that. Sound good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jameson (ST) Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 OOCly I think Gary has been largely unobserved by the workers, and I think he can get more done if it stays that way. ICly, this is relevant information. Post as you see fit however, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quotemyname Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 I wasn't suggesting that he should call attention to himself. Just that Hellhound's going to let slip additional information off the cuff. Gary will over hear it. Gary, being the intelligent man he is will have a "Lightbulb!" moment when he hears the new info and then he can do whatever he wants, even if that involves staying out of sight or not.

jameson (ST) Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Gary's not really near by to the others though. Unless Russ yells I doubt Gary, deep in concentration and searching for clues, is going to hear something said in casual conversation, outdoors, during the day, on a construction site, several yards off. Or maybe I am incorrect about the proximity factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quotemyname Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 perhaps... but if he's scanning the surface thoughts in the area, and Russ's are screaming something like, "Crap! I forgot to tell them that other important piece of info! Oh no!" Gary might just pick up on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superball Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Also realized (too late) that Naomi could have been doing some kit-bashing on the fly in terms of sensory equipment and the like. I am not going to metagame this so I had this stuff prior. But now... well I should read the thread first. Addendum: Okay, right now Naomi is just doing this the old-fashioned way. I think at some point (perhaps with further IC prompting) Naomi should be able to jury-rig a electromagnetic anomaly detector. Can't do it at this moment since she is already doing a old-fashioned engineering investigation. I mean something supernatural if it is powerful enough should influence it's surroundings in a noticeable way, shouldn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

z-Blitz Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I am now, though I was without internet last week. Sorry!

quotemyname Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Haha, yea, just assume that I don't really follow any threads except for the ones I'm RPing in. Play by Post has become so much of a back-burner hobby for me it's mildly upsetting (Until I think about all the other things I've got going on and realize it was a totally legitimate decision). I'll post after you throw something up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
