Island Empire Part 1, to Mermaid's Rest

[J. Alexander]

Michael Storm (warlock)

I imagine that only one of us can fit in the doorway, I will leave it to Grond to contiune the physccal comabt.



MIchael Storm rolls 1d20 +8, getting [11,8] = (19) Grond any chace of a flanking or bonus here

Michael will set about drawing his rapier and waiting for the next round.

 

[Scotley]

Listens again (1d20+5=12) - So, has the evening's shower started yet? Maybe that's distracting me...

OOC: Not quite, but it is coming soon. My question is would Morwyn even notice?

 

[Erland]

Morwyn

Yes, Morwyn would notice the rain (apparently a lot faster than he'd notice a fight taking place below decks ). First, because it would afffect the way the crew needs to handle the ship; second, because the reduced visibility means being extra alert; finally, because he really enjoys standing in the rain

 

[Scotley]

Aboard the Rumpled Bedsheet.

Grond makes another attempt to grab the halfling, but cannot get him. The halfling attacks (1d20+7=12) in response, but is also unable to connect.

OOC: Normally you would get a flanking bonus, but Rogues of a certain level cannot be flanked except by another Rogue at least 4 levels higher. They also keep their dex. bonus even when surprised.

 

[Scotley]

Aboard the 'Rumpled Bedsheet'

Christopher seeing he is not going to best the three of you decides to make a break for it. He
tumbles (1d20+20=35) past Rook with ease and begins to run.

OOC: Another round of listen checks, but now the DC is down to 15 and 20.

As he tries to flee, Michael will let go with another blast....hopefully if i hit him it should slow him down some..

Michael Stormrolls 3d6 +1, getting [3,3,6,1] = (13)

Do you think invisible castle has a reallly messed up system or what.......

Michael Storm

OCC: No offense guys but if this is what we can expect from invisible castle i think i may give up, not that i dont mind bad die rolls on occasion but i think with so many people using the system it is way easier to get screwed on a continuing basis.....maybe i am in a pissy mood, but i so hate the frustration of not being able to do anything etc because of crappy rolls..i can so not deal with that type of stress...etc.......

OCC: four lands...Mikey L, Keith, James....hit me back with a character concept etc soon as I may open it to others....

Todd,

I am not sure I will have time to make another character as I am making one for Mike's Hero campaign too and I have to read the Hero system PDF. First ask, first accept. Sorry.
Maybe I can join later?

I gripe about it, but really, it all works out in the end (or it should . . . I have to keep believing that . . . ). It's that whole thing where somehow, character stats are better, we hit more often, etc. if we're rolling dice -- really, we seem to come up with better than average characteristics and rolls to hit/damage whenever we play with dice, and I've gotten spoiled. I do think I'll look back at all of Rook's rolls and see what percentage have come up under half the possible roll, though -- maybe that'll give me an idea about how long my run of good luck will last . . .
