Masks of Nyarlathotep [OOC]

[Krug]

How many skill points and HP does one normally start with?

Sharpermc I assume you'll be more the brains of the duo; the accounting type who scams people and charms women...

Sounds fun already!

 

[VorpalBunny]

For that you just add HTML

My sig looks like this

Cool. Thanks Shapermc!

Krug: Unless Yellow Sign has something else in mind you start out with (8 + Int modifier)*4 skill points, and 6 + your Constitution modifier hit points.

Okay, I edited my character, both here and in the Rogues Gallery. I removed Speak Other Language (Italian) and broke my up profession and non-profession skills. He only has one non-profession skill. I bought 38 ranks at 1 point per rank of profession skills and 1 rank of non-profession skill at 2 points. Total skill points is 40, which I believe is correct. Let me know if anything else needs to be changed.

Also, I didn't roll for starting money (savings) and yearly salary so I didn't buy anything for him yet.

Toric, great character! I have a few questions and comments though. Your native language is Italian so you don't need to spend any points on Speak Language (Italian).

Could you note which of your skills are your class skills please. So I can double check your math . You should have 12 class skills.

Other than that, he will fit in perfectly and is a great character!

This sounds great, and I'd love to play, buuuuuut...I've had, and read, the original Masks of Nyarlathotep boxed set for pushing 20 years now. I'll probably lurk and see how it goes, though. MoN truly is one of the greatest of roleplaying adventures. I was going to ask about how you'd handle all the wonderful handouts that came with that adventure, but I think I know...

I was just looking through that box the other day, seeing how hard it would be to convert to d20. By the way, Yellow Sign, I was wondering if you'd know how much diffference there is between the boxed set and the later book form the adventure took, in regards to the handouts? I think I know what content differs, but I was wondering how the handouts were bound into the book, given their variety.

Anyway, good luck, and I know you'll have fun...heh...

 

[Yellow Sign]

Two great characters and three to go. VorpalBunny your guy looks very good. I love the picture.

Krug: VB is right Skill points are (8 + int bonus) x 4
Hit points are 6 + con bonus

ColonelHardisson, I have never seen the boxed set. I have the third edition book and it has 45 handouts. They are throughout the book and in a special section in the back. Easy to scan or copy. Too bad you cannot play. Keep a eye out any suggestions would be helpful.

Ok posted my character in the chars thread; however I don't have the Cthulhu sourcebook, and not sure about skills. Which are cross-class and which are not? Let me know so I can adjust.

Hey, great. How about the matchbox? Is it made of cardstock in the book? In the box, it was cardstock, and could be made into a matchbox, which is what I did with it, including matches.

 

[Yellow Sign]

No the matchbook is just paper. Though it shows you how to attach it to a real matchbook. I did that the first time I ran MON. It was a working matchbook with matchs.

HEY! Don't spoil the match box. I don't know what it means, but now I know it is comming
