A Merc's Life [OOC 01]

[Maidhc O Casain]

I need to go see it . . .

Regarding Spellcraft checks and the Chime of Opening:

I've been mulling it over, and I'm still not sure how to handle it. Literal interpretation of RAW would be that one check gives you everything (in which case you would know how many charges it has, as I made the check for you). This would be easiest for me, as I could turn over bookkeeping of the charges to you in every case where you successfully figure out the item.

Another option would be to require a separate check for determining charges - I can see where this would occasionally lead to increased dramatic tension (Am I about to use the last charge on the Wand of Magic Missiles against this Dragon?) but for the most part would just be more DM bookkeeping.

So I think (unless you all would rather otherwise) I'll go with RAW and give you the goods with a single successful check.

I'll give you the number of charges as soon as I get to my home computer and can look it up.

I need to go see it . . .<'it' being "Avatar">

I also want to see it. Want to catch it together sometime?

Sure! I'm planning to go sometime this weekend, but I'm not sure when. Caroline's got a basketball game this morning and a 'play date' with one of her friends from school either this afternoon or tomorrow, and Darling and I have got some other stuff I'll have to schedule around.

You may very have short notice, but I'll call you as soon as I know when I'm going.

Ok, I may not be able to go on such short notice, but we'll give it a try.

Did you see it?

 

[Leif]

Mowgli went yesterday morning, but, alas, I was unable to accept his gracious invitation to join him.

 

[mleibrock]

I will be out of town this weekend and unable to post. Be back at it Monday evening.

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

I'll also be out of town until Monday afternoon (Mikey & I are going snowboarding w/ Rhun) - we'll get 'er going again then. Well, it may be Tuesday AM for me, since I'll be away from Darling and Caroline for four days . . .

 

[renau1g]

Don't get hurt! Hopefully Leif will be feeling better by then as well.
