    So, starting off with a Great Driving, which is (wait for it) great. I'll post up the ghouls' driving post some time today. EDIT: Oops, I see now the +1 was included. So Good (+3). And, Superb Alertness of by the looks of it. (1+4) So you got a look at the license plates. If need be, you can...

    Give me a Alertness roll, at least Good, for Juno to see the plates before they drive off.

    The ghoul with Kiera moves left, then right, only to be blocked as it tries to make its escape. A ghoul isn't a particularly resourceful creature, but it also isn't a particularly courageous one either, and its eyes widen as it watches its companion on the other side of the lawn, with Juno...

    Oh definitely on the police response. Especially in a normally peaceful neighborhood like this. This is probably the kind of area that has relatively fast police responses, too. :cool:

    The main motivating factor for Juno not to call in police backup here would be the safety of the officers. It's extremely likely that any officers who respond will not be familiar with the supernatural and would treat the ghouls like any other perp, most likely being killed or seriously injured...

    Keira and Juno manage to dodge out of the way without much effort, but Logan takes 1 point of stress. Logan still has his 1st stress box available, so the stress goes there. If there's no objection, I'll describe the stress loss to dropping down hard on the concrete porch as soon as he saw the...

    Man, I'm all over the place here. Of course, you're right. Don't know what I was thinking. It's a Fair (+2) attack at everybody, but a hit will result in +2 stress.

    If you didn't jump behind the tree, you would have no aspect to spend a FATE point on, though. Remember, you can't just spend FATE points willy-nilly, you have to have some kind of aspect to invoke. In this case, you're behind a tree, which lets you invoke the aspect TAKING COVER (or whatever...

    Yeah. It wasn't a bad decision, its just that things went kinda out of control unexpectedly. On the ghouls' turn, the car rolls in front of the house. The ghouls on foot rush to the car. The injured one looks over his shoulder, wide eyed, then pulls open the back door and dives into the moving...

    Sorry for the delay. I do my posts from work, and everything has been really busy in the post-holiday catch-up. Now as to the roll, that's quite the block! I rolled a 5 for the ghoul's Athletics to push his way by Keira... and its so close. This one also had a compel earlier, keeping it from...

    Phew! I'm back after a long trip and a bit of the flu. So, we'll continue on! What's been going on... Okay its been a while so I'm going to recap the combat, for my benefit as well as all yours. So you guys went to Sandra's duplex and split up. Juno and Malcom went to enter, perhaps not so...

    Posted up the ghouls, finally! I just got some extra days off for Christmas, and I'll be taking a bit more vacation than expected. I'll be leaving on the 21st or 22nd and won't get back until the 5th. We're frantically trying to get packed and ready for a sooner departure and longer stay. While...

    Bloody and bludgeoned, the ghoul inside with Juno and Malcom grabs its shoulder wound, dark and thick blood oozing between its clenched fingers. The look on its face isn't quite the pure malice that it was a few seconds ago. Now there's something else there, fear underneath the grimacing mask of...

    Thanee will start it off, maneuvering around the ghoul to back him against the wall. Then I'll do the ghouls running for it. And we just go down the line from there.

    From Adventure Game to Story Game?

    In my upcoming D&D game, what I'm looking to do is add three aspects (ala FATE) to characters: a High Concept (who are you?) a Trouble (what is your problem?) and a Renown (what are you known for?). The first two aspects are chosen by the player. The last aspect is based on how the character is...

    I don't know if you guys have seen this, but there's a Fate Core Kickstarter going on. It's already waaaay over and for only $10 you get a huge amount of material. It's very cool, and as somebody who really loves the FATE system, I'm super excited about it. :) Back to the game! Here's the...

    You see the ghouls, so that's something at least. ;) I plead the 5th.

    Nice roll. :) You (and anybody else who rolls 3 or higher and is within view of the street) sees a dark colored Cadillac circa the 1970s that was parked about half a block down the street start to slow-roll its way toward you guys. It's headlights are off, but through the dark of the now almost...
